Soupe de Poisson is my thing. I have enjoyed variations from Toulon to Biarritz, and cooked it…read moremyself. So I wanted to splurge on something really good. I was disappointed in the food and disappointed in the bill.
The "famous" bouillabaisse was somewhat below average - slightly heavy and with almost a cinnamon flavor - but lacking salt, fennel, or saffron that often give more complexity. There was nothing exciting about the soup base or the chunks of fish and potato. Portion size was medium - not large. And yet we did not finish our bowls.
Fish soup everywhere else in France is 15-25eu, and usually better tasting, albeit without the potato and fish chunks. This is 55 Eu per person. Which is astronomical - especially for this quality of taste.
Ordered San Pelligrino sparkling water. They delivered an unsealed bottle with their restaurant name. No idea of actual contents.
Arrived 7:58 for 8 pm reservation and place was 20% occupied. We got served about 8:50 pm
