For a spot right in the middle of a tourist area this place was a charming experience. We were a…read moreparty of 6, 4 adults and 2 kids and just a little before the dinner crowds. The hosts were welcoming and helpful explaining the daily specials in their best if limited English and provided English menus. The restaurant itself is quite striking inside with a high stone arch ceiling and well executed decor. The food leans heavily to seafoods of course. It was high quality and substantial portions. I felt bad about not being able to finish my swordfish and my in laws struggled to finish their plates. The kids loved their selections as well as they chocolate cake. The wine list was very good with quite a few local varieties. All in all this place felt a step above the other spots in the tourist ghetto along the waterfront and I would be happy to go back.

The food was excellent: fresh seafood and cooked well. There was an excellent variety and everything we had was delicious.

But it sets itself apart from others in the town by being a bit creative too - Sardines on a profiterole with Wasabi, for example is truly awesome, while Cuttlefish Cassoulet isn't half bad either. Also thoroughly recommend the Razor clams and the best mouelleux Chocolat I've ever had! Prices are pretty good - starting at EUR7ish for a starter and EUR13 ish for a main. Menus change depending on what gets caught that day, which can only be a good thing in my book!

Now reopened under new ownership. La Cantine du Glacier served us an excellent meal last night! The…read moreshellfish platter we started with was as fresh as it could be and was presented with a particularly well put together mignonette sauce. My main course was monkfish ('lotte') in a delectable and subtly flavoured Noilly cream sauce, made with the local candidates world famous vermouth. Finally the 'Chocolat au lait' dessert turned out to be a wonderfully dense, and not too sweet little cake accompanied by excellent vanilla ice cream and a light whipped cream concoction. Perfect.
