L'Almandin - Reservar uma mesa

Almandin is the restaurant of hotel l'Île de la Lagoon, a modern-style very elegant hotel/spa; good as the hotel is, the restaurant is better; and our favourite is the regular series of dinners, le Table d'Honneur; the recent change of chef has not diminished the quality, nor the imaginative approach, the local wines are invariably well-chosen and complement the food perfectly; before the meal, it is common to take a glass - outside if fine, in the bar if not; I am always happy with their Henriot champagne, my wife likes their huge range of cocktails; the food is different every time, but nonetheless revolves around local produce; the latest began with a small glass of cucumber soup, raised to another level by tiny mint ice cubes; the first real course was a simple, but perfect, dish, an oyster with cucumber jelly, accompanied by champagne; next came a langoustine, with the hearts of beef tomatoes, plus Catalan white wine; my favourite was a perfect pair of fillets of roast sea bass, with a razor clam and a clam nage, plus a choice of the same white wine or a delicious Mas Karolina red; a delicate roast mignon of veal with peaches liked the same wine; a light blend of mascarpone and delicious rhubarb took a local sweet white; finally, a delightful bit of fun, involving chocolate, caramel, pineapple sorbet, went beautifully with a rich and unctuous 2008 white Maury, also from Karolina; a magnificent, but not over-heavy, meal; as a minor note, the cabaret singer was a joy to listen to

We went to the restaurant to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday and could not have selected anywhere better. From the moment we walked into the restaurant until we left the atmosphere was wonderful, we had a table looking out over the lagoon, it was a Friday and the jazz band was playing which added to the experience. We had the Galindo Concept menu and the food was outstanding and we have not had better service anywhere, the person who looked after us was a lovely young man who took the time and trouble to explain every detail to us in very good English. We will definitely return.

We went there two days ago for lunch to celebrate our son's birthday. What an experience. From we were met in in the lobby through the whole meal, sitting outside and eating perfect food. Super professional and sympathic staff , nice wines and champagne. Epic food. For 30Euros per person for a three course meal, this is very very good.
