L'escapade - Sainte-Maxime

The food is a disaster. 24 euro of 12 small shrimps. 13 euro for a bottle of water. An outrage. Bad quality and very expensive. Fire the cheff please. Its an insult to the consumer. Kitchen nightmare!!!! Keep away!!! Walk away while you still can!!

Walking along the coast we discovered this restaurant and chosen among other similar ones nearby, As a starter we chosen Parma ham with melon for 12€. I ordered a meal of the day with some tuna steak, rice and a salad plus dessert ice cream with chocolate sause for 13,90€. My BF wished a steak with chips and some leafy salad as well for approx. 20€ and we obviously shared a nice red wine , 1 bottle for 19€. Was tasty. The place was quite busy though and a bit noisy, but the staff was very attentional. The menu was in French and English.

We went there for lunch with my mother on our way to St Tropez. We had, six oysters No3, three fish and chips, one fromage blanc, one tiramitsu, one profiterolles, all serving were quite large and tasty, attentive service too. Busy place at lunch.

As the title says "Excellent". The location, the service, the cleanliness. It all added up to a great experience on the coast.We called in for an evening meal and i'm glad we did. We got seated straight away. The chairs were comfy and well spaced out. There was a good selection on the menu. I opted for the 1kg of mussels. Whilst waiting i had a beautiful Sex on the Beach cocktail and nibbled on the bread for the table. The food came and it was presented spectacularly. Whilst i have had better mussels they were very nice. Will be back here in a few months and i'm looking forward to it.

To be honest it's my sister in law that researched this restaurant and it certainly lived up to our expectations. It has a pleasant location by the port and that would normally make one, well me anyway, that this was a tourist trap. But not on this occasion. We all had first class dishes , mine were ( so fresh) oysters and their petit bouillabaisse. We served efficiently and most pleasantly with care and finally the bill was reasonable. Here's hoping they keep it up and don't become arrogant over time as so often occurs !
