    Excellent restaurant dans le centre de Calais. Le service est accueillant et sympathique. Les plats sont bons et copieux. Les menus sont parfaits, offrant un excellent rapport qualité/prix. La formule du midi, si elle existe encore, est vraiment superbe. PS: on a pu prendre à emporter le dessert compris dans le menu car nous n’avions plus faim. 👍

    J'ai partagé un très bon moment avec mes parents dans ce restaurant pour le soir du 14 juillet. Le service était de qualité et rapide, réactif. L'endroit est calme et lumineux, j'ai beaucoup aimé la décoration ! Concernant les plats : c'était bon , une cuisine simple avec un bon rapport qualité prix. Petit problème : l'assaisonnement. Manque un petit peu de sel ou épices pour relever le goûts des ingrédients, qui restent de qualité.

    Nous sommes maintenant des habitués de l'essentiel et nous sommes toujours ravies des plats proposés, c'est même difficile de faire son choix. Excellent rapport qualité/prix. Le décor est soigné et le personnel super agréable et à l'écoute. Quand nous voulons bien manger on ne cherche plus, nous allons à l'essentiel. C'est devenu notre restaurant fétiche pour nos grandes célébrations.

    Food was sooo good. Very delicious, everything looks nice and fresh. No english menu available. It was hard to translate, even with a translator online. Bread would be nice with the Entrée

    The food was bad, the place - dirty and the service - non existant. I had to beg several times to get water and again and again when it was finished. My food didn't have any taste (fish) and café gourmand was just a coffee with different kinds of cookies. The toilet was stinky, the place had a smell of old and the menus were dirty. There was only 1 girl serving and it was clearly not enough.

    Wonderful experience, perfect food and service. Highly recommend!

  • 3/5 Marianne D. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Fair value for money. Very pleasant and helpful staff. An appetizer that gave me hope for an excellent surprise; the rest was bland despite a nice presentation (does the chef taste _or she_ his dishes?). A risotto that tastes like rice pudding, that's a shame. (Original) Rapport qualité prix correct. Personnel très agréable et serviable. Une mise en bouche qui m'a laissé espérer une excellente surprise; le reste était fade malgré une belle présentation (le chef goûte-t-il _ou elle_ ses plats?). Un risotto qui a le goût de riz au lait, c'est dommage.

    (Translated by Google) Occasion birthdays of the brothers, choice of menu at 23 €. Good surprise ! Very good value for money, refined presentation of the plates, and it's really good 😋 Nice modern setting. I recommend. (Flat on the coconut crème brûlée that you can't smell) (Original) Occasion anniversaires des frangins, choix menu à 23€. Belle surprise ! Très bon rapport qualité prix, présentation raffinée des assiettes, et c'est vraiment bon 😋 Cadre sympa moderne. Je recommande. (Bémol sur la crème brûlée coco qu'on ne sent pas)

    Our friends from Calais invited us to your restaurant on Sunday November 5th, what a nice surprise!! A simple but relaxing setting, top service and finally quality cuisine with fresh produce. I will come back when I am in the area, thank you again for this beautiful moment.
