“ This restaurant is just the best, from the staff to the food, nothing is as good as it. We go there very often with my family and there are children and adults and everyone is happy. It’s child friendly, with a delicious kids menu. Their prices match the food, and on top of all that, it’s not too touristy, unlike other restaurants in dinard. ”
“ It was a wonderful experience. The 125 mussels in a onion cream sauce was very tasty. The scallops and shrimp dish was great, too! It had a lemon cream sauce which was good indeed. What was interesting was the scallops were almost seemed slightly not cooked enough but they were perfectly cooked and tasted just right. The dessert was good. They had sundaes, too. People were having a great time and the wait staff was very pleasant and took good care of us. I would highly recommend this restaurant to enjoy your special evening with your love ones! ”
“ Really good food, but the portions seemed kind of small. The poke bowl was made with a "sweet soy sauce", I wouldn't recommend it. I may come back again, but only to have a drink. ”
“ We wanted to try the local seafood delicacies & this is the place to do it. Remember to book as it is very popular. We sat inside, which was air-conditioned, which was a pleasant change. Our waitress had basic English & was very enthusiastic. Watching the staff run this place like a well-oiled machine was amazing & exhausting! We finally tried the small mussels, which 2 of us shared as a starter. My partner had 1 of the seafood plated, which was memorable. The profiteroles were huge. The bottle of reisling complemented the meal well. The prices we thought were so reasonable for the quality. ”
“ Our group of 4 went for the plat du jour set meal at €38. We found the service very attentive with no long gaps between courses which I prefer. The food was excellent and well presented. I found all the courses delicious, paired with chosen wine. The place was busy and looking around some of the seafood presentations were amazing. Lovely staff too…. ”
