Very delicious, fresh good prices and nice stuff

Service is good enough. The food however is ‘supermarket’ quality. I could have made the same quality at home and I purely paid for the location. I would not go back, and recommend others to look at other restaurants before settling for those one.

Tasty first plates, especially the Atun, for main plate the fish was bitter and the one with fillet was tasty but very small, desserts were okay

I realized something was not right with the service at this restaurant when I noticed two tables that had been seated about 10-15 after my husband and I arrived had been served the same meal I ordered about 45 minutes ago. I said to my husband, something is not right here and we need to ask why their food was served before ours. Our food came out about 10 minutes later. In the meantime, a new table was seated and their food came right out. I must mention we are a melated couple while the others mentioned are caucasian. My intention is not to make this about race but I do get to mention the obvious possible scénario here.

The french restaurant Petit Lézard is a great place to enjoy delicious food in an airy, streamlined bistro setting. The menu offers a variety of dishes including seafood, steak and burgers, making it great for family dining or intimate gatherings with friends. The staff are charming and attentive and the atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. Highly recommended!
One of the best fish in town, would definitely recommend! A little pricey but definitely worth it!

I've been there twice and after bad experience with other "touristic" restaurants in this area now I understand the hype about this place. Attentive staff, great food - oysters, fish trio a la plancha and aïoli de poulpes et encornets were all very fresh and delicious. Highly recommended.

De olijven en de broodjes vooraf waren lekker, het eten verder was overgoten met olie en binnen 2 minuten op tafel. Ik dacht hier mooi gegrilde vis te kunnen eten, maar ik had beter een kababje om de hoek kunnen halen.. (Translated by Google) The olives and the sandwiches beforehand were delicious, the rest of the food was drizzled with oil and on the table within 2 minutes. I thought I could eat nice grilled fish here, but I would have been better off getting a kabab around the corner...

Busy local restaurant, ideally need to reserve a table. Excellent specials board with fresh seafood. Oysters, steak haché, duck... everything was nice!

We ordered the menu of the day, and it was delicious! The place was crowded, but we got served very quickly. Very nice experience
Peter Verswyvelen — Google review
Best prijzig en dan binnen 5 minuten je eten op tafel doet je toch vermoeden dat je eten al klaar was voordat je het überhaupt bestelde. Volgens mij proberen ze hier zo snel mogelijk zo veel mensen doorheen te knallen. En dat is helaas wel aan de kwaliteit van het eten te merken. (Translated by Google) Quite pricey and having your food on the table within 5 minutes makes you think that your food was ready before you even ordered it. I think they're trying to get as many people through this as quickly as possible. And unfortunately that is noticeable in the quality of the food.

Had an incredible day at the exquisite beach club Bonaventure. The lunch was delectable, with refreshing drinks to complement it. The venue itself exuded style and had a relaxed and warm atmosphere. I luxuriated on the beach lounger and even treated myself to a relaxing massage right by the shore. If you're in Montpellier, I highly suggest indulging in a luxurious day at Bonaventure's beach club - it's definitely worth the taxi ride!
I spent an exceptionally good day at this lovely beach club. The lunch was delicious, drinks refreshing, the space stylish, the vibe relaxed and friendly. I enjoyed the beach lounger and indulged in a massage right there on the beach. If you are visiting Montpellier - I highly recommend treating yourself to a luxury day at the beach. It is worth the taxi trip.

ok, it rains, instead of making place for the people in the restaurant, to have drink while they wait for the rain to pass, which is dry, the owner starts telling people they are not welcome and that they are closed. even with a stream of people wanting to stay for a bit (and willing to pay). also the prices for tapas or tiny dishes are about 20,- where in town you pay 6,-. personel is cool, the owner is just not. unfriendly. bad atmosphere. pity, because the place is beautiful.

Been there 2 days in a row on first line sunbeds. Location and view is what’s best about this place. Although slightly overpriced the food is rather good and well served. Service is slow but it’s probably to match the vibe of the whole thing which is “bobo chic”. There’s a LOT of staff although some of them don’t seem to care much and prefer to chat around and crack jokes. Kudos to Gautier and Lisa who were super active for our well-being. If you’re tight on money don’t go there or you’ll leave frustrated, otherwise if you’re cool and not too demanding, you should have a good time within a great venue. Big boss could smile a bit more. Overall we had a great time.

Take the other reviews for restaurants in this area seriously. Although I read some reviews, we didn't have enough time to explore other options and decided to take the risk, which turned out to be unfortunate. The restaurant's location offers a lovely view, which I really enjoyed. The seating area was also comfortable and cosy. Our waitress was very nice, though she had difficulty speaking English. It was disappointing that they only had the menu in French and didn't provide translations for other languages. Considering that not everyone speaks French (only 3.6 percent of the world population), it would have been helpful to have translations available. Nevertheless, the waitress did her best to explain the menu using simple words. We opted for the fish dishes since the restaurant was by the sea, even though they were quite overpriced. The ambience made us want to sit there and enjoy the surroundings. However, our food arrived surprisingly quickly, in less than 5 minutes, which made us question if it was already cooked or it is fresh. Unfortunately, the dishes were served not very warm and lacked any distinct taste. For the price of €40 for food and €7 for a 330ml beer, we expected at least average quality food, especially given the restaurant's location by the sea. To be honest, I am hesitant to try any other food options in this area, and I can only suggest having a drink if you want to enjoy the view and atmosphere. P.S. The cocktails were priced at approximately €15, but I cannot comment on their quality as we didn't try them after the disappointing food experience.

Beautiful beach, great cocktails. Pleasant beach staff. Restaurant extremely disappointing. Overpriced very average food. Very inflexible, intolerant, won’t change any dishes (eg different potato accompaniment), chef refused to cook beef to personal preference. Starter arrived cold and didn’t taste much better when warmed up. Luckily the beach made up for the poor food experience, day cost 100€ per head.

The place is really cool directly on the beach with a great view, great design and friendly staff. The service however was below expectations, waitress didn’t give the right information about side dishes, forgot to take the order of half the table, fish was full of fishbones, had to ask for spoons for ice cream and coffee order was forgotten. Will give them another chance in the hope they had an off night.

Seafood restaurant
Restaurant Au Poisson Bleu is a pleasant establishment, conveniently located in the city center yet away from the hustle and bustle. It offers a relaxed ambiance without any pretensions. Despite being chosen last minute for dinner with low expectations, it turned out to be a delightful experience. The food was of high quality and reasonably priced, making for a satisfying meal. The staff were friendly and accommodating, creating a welcoming atmosphere.
We were visiting the area and lucky enough to stumble across this amazing restaurant! The employees were incredibly friendly and welcoming, the fresh seafood was delicious, and the bill was very reasonable. They even gave us free shots of limoncini! I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is in the area!

Nice place without too many pretensions, in the center but a little away from the comings and goings of the mass. Chosen at the last moment for dinner, we didn't have high expectations but in reality the dinner was very good and the bill was more than fair. Friendly staff, it won't be a starred restaurant but it's not bad.

Waited at least 20 minutes before we were even able to order. People who came after us were served their meals before we even had the chance to order. Tried to attract the attention of the waitress a few times - without success. Background info: my wife and I live in Germany and the friend who was with us is German, so if course we were speaking German - now I don't know if that has anything to do with it... in any case, I ordered in French. If you're hungry, this is possibly not the place for you. Food was okay but not generously portioned.
