“ Large choice of fresh meals including large pieces of meat/fish. All of them were nicely cooked and truly tasty. I recommend going there if you want to enjoy a good time with your lover and/or family. ”
“ Food was first class plus good service. I had the plat du jour. My wife gratinated mussels and cod with vegetables. With a half bottle of wine it was around £50, good value ”
“ L'Eau Sel is located just away from the harbour of Meze. Being slightly away from the town cente, they have to work a bit harder than other restaurants to attract diners. They do, but I'm not sure if their efforts are always well-directed. My main course was tuna with foie gras. [Cue Joey Tribbiani voice:] "Tuna: good! Foie gras: GOOD!" Yes, they're both good, but I'm not convinced they belong together. It's more of a dish for millionaires: just put some expensive ingredients on a plate together without thinking whether they go well with eachother. There were similar examples, but all in all: the dishes were of good quality, the service was attentive and the prices reasonable. It is certainly worth venturing away from the harbour to pay a visit to L'Eau Sel. ”
“ We accidentally stepped into this restaurant opposite the road of our van we were sleeping in. We didn’t dress appropriately and compared to every other guest we were definitely underdressed. Never the less they treated us very nicely with good english and excellent food. Not the cheapest but worth every penny! So go for it! ”
“ Highly recommendable, the dishes are prepared by cooks who know what they are doing. Both presentation and service are outstanding. ”
“ Fabulous fresh seafood. Beautifully presented. Friendly and efficient staff! Nice terrace with a view of the sea. ”
“ Very cozy and beautiful place. Great service. The food was fine but not super impressive. The Carpaccio de St Jacque and tartar de la mer aux lentille were very good. The parenting de Bouguinon de boeuf was basically pulled beef with mashed potatoes - nothing special. Fish was very good. ”
