La Cazaute - La Teste-de-Buch

Very pleasant terrace, at the water's edge Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

An unspeakable disaster! A shame !! Being used to it, we arrived as a family, without reservation, last night around 7:45 p.m. There are tables left and the whole interior is empty. We are seated at a table with very high stools. I request a table inside because the stools are dangerous for children. It is refused because it is supposedly made hot. However, we have already been installed there. So it will be table with stools or nothing. We sit down and wait for the map. After 20 minutes we asked for it again. The aperitif drinks arrived, we finished them and waited for a tapas board and fried smelt for more than 30 minutes. Despite several signs, the waiters don't even look at us and don't come despite several signs. 2 reserved tables, arriving after us, are served tapas before us. We manifest ourselves strongly. The waiters tell us that the kitchen had a problem but we don't understand when we specify the two tables served before. No explanation. We let it go. We change tables (always with stools) because many insects fall on us. The tapas arrive and we ask for another appetizer to accompany. Then we finish. And let's wait for the dishes. Let's wait wait. This time 4 tables are served before us. The waiters tell us that our plates take longer (a tartare a garlic squid and 3 children's plates). The children's plates arrive. 40 minutes pass we have neither the wine nor our plates. The total ignorance of the servers. My husband gets up and asks for the manager who is in the kitchen. He asks him to wait another 5 minutes and will have no explanation of the tables served before us. My husband refuses, settles and walks away. I immediately ask the waitress to bring me the wine and bring our plates while my husband smokes. I wait another 10 minutes and ask the waitress for a minute. She goes to see the manager and comes back telling me that the kitchen is closed. It’s 9:45 p.m. and there are still tables still eating. We leave. My kids are crying because they didn't get their ice cream. No gesture, no explanations, no shame, no regrets, false excuses. And we will have to come back and get reimbursed for the bottle of wine charged. Nothing to complain about in terms of quality of the cuisine. What we were used to coming for...

In order to set the scene with a wide walk/biking path between you and the beach, the restaurant has both inside/outside seating. Lunch baby squid in garlic butter and side salad exceptionally well cooked and delicious. Desert a Cafe gourmand four different pots with a coffee so delicious. The evening meal was cooked as well as fresh tuna as you wish and it was not a desert, but a very unforgettable meal. Recommended as a great stop when walking or riding.

Very nice food and good service at very nice location. Seafood was made perfect and desert was also very nice. 87654321
