Occitanie, France Food Guide: 10 European food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Aigues-Mortes
Reviews on European food in Aigues-Mortes, Occitanie, France. "Aigues-Mortes" translates to "dead waters," but the salt marshes surrounding this medieval city actually have given this town one of its chief industries: sea-salt production. (Bring some home for epicurean friends.) Fortified into a Mediterranean port in the 12th century, Aigues-Mortes’ massive walls survive—walk along them for great views.

Small restaurant about 2 km from the medieval city of Aigues Morte. It does look great from the outside but it is very good. Friendly service, good value for money and nice outside terrace by the canal. I definitely recommend.

Enjoyed this place, service was extremely friendly and efficient, the food was wholesome and well cooked.From roast chicken to a complicated tasting plate, both were done very well.Located outside the walled city it offered better value and more traditional food

We don't normally eat hamburgers and never in France...until now. Situated just 80 metres from the main square and the tourist restaurants, this place is something special. On our host's recommendation, we had the beef blue, unheard of with a steak burger back home. In combination with with the goats cheese, the home made fries, salad and sauces, and the friendly service, this is the best hamburger joint I have ever found. The wine and the price made everything even better. Go there.

We have been recommended this restaurant and it did not let us down! We recommend their "menu degustation" at â¬79.- per person (wine is included) for which you should book together with your booking and plan to be sitting 2h30 at the table and do not eat too much bread if you wish to taste every dish! LOLVery good food quality, this is semi gastro level.

Hundreds of reviews, nearly all excellent and good, with two poor and one terrible. There's always one terrible: what could go wrong?Was it because it was Monday night, and the chef was away? The waiter was turning couples away because they were fully booked, when they clearly weren't; and there seemed to be a bit of a panic in the kitchen. But this was awful. I sometimes wish my other half and offspring would let me tell people what I think at the time, but I can't, so here goes...The wine was excellent, and great value for money. The water was chilled, as was the waiter, and refreshing. The service was charming and top notch, almost to the end. The food, though, was not, with a couple of exceptions. We went with the 3 x â¬35 formule: starter, main & dessert, and were happy to get an amuse-bouche of house pâté on toast which was promisingly good. The water, wine, salt and bread all arrived quickly and with charm. We chatted about the music, and all agreed that Norah Jones was lovely in every respect. Everything was wonderful.The starters came, and the foie gras was great, as was the brandade and tapenade toast. The mussels (the mussels are amazing, says Trip Advisor) were served on the half shell, floating in grease, with some sort of sauce that looked like sick. I think that they had been grilled, but somebody forgot to pre-heat the grill, and the sauce and most of the mussels - were cold. I struggled. Grease pooled. The mains. Apparently the squid was good, but the tuile-like basket of courgettes with overpowering peppers that I had in my main was there too. The runny leak common to all three mains was on the plate too, so I can only imagine that there was the same soupy effect on the plate. I had ordered a beef filet (rare) and my daughter the house burger (medium). My 'filet' - in my experience at the butcher's, filet comes in one piece, and not several different (and separate!) bits arranged to possibly look like one - was struggling to show any pink at all; my daughter's burger was rare to the point of mooing. My sauce aux morilles was more of a thin soup which ran off anything it came in contact with, without thinking to leave any hint of its passage. Neither of us finished. Dessert. By this stage the young lady had decided that enough was enough. Nothing for her. Mrs & I thought better of challenging the kitchen further, and went for two scoops of sorbet. They came, with the comment that 'I've added some house chocolate.' I wonder, and maybe I'm wrong, if the addition of chocolate crisps wasn't to justify the 'desserts faits maison' on the board. The sorbets didn't seem in any way homemade. And then the bill. He kindly didn't charge us for three formules, but did charge us for a â¬16 main when it was only â¬15. A small thing, but by then I was mightily pissed off and my pores were - and still are - teeming grease.â¬135 or so for a very nice bottle of wine and a car crash of a meal. It just goes to show that on a bad Monday evening, hundreds of Trip Advisor contributors can be seen to be wrong.Bonjour et adieu.....

A warm and friendly welcome is always a good start. Reasonably good English spoken though we didn't need it and help with understanding the menu was offered. Service throughout was helpful, discreet but friendly and engaging, all that it should be and quite charming. All staff regularly checked in with us to make sure everyone was satisfied. The menu while small was interesting and varied enough that there was something to appeal to all. The wine list again while not large and mainly locally focused was reasonably priced and had very good choices on offer. The dishes were all freshly prepared with quality ingredients, well presented and all quite delicious. We enjoyed entrees ranging from oysters to sea snails to goats cheese salad and mains including supreme of pintade ( guinea fowl) & beef steak all perfectly cooked and presented. A pleasant range of desserts saw the profiteroles getting most attention but there were no shortage of other tempting options. Highly recommend this place.

They really deserve their good ratings - great food and atmosphere, very friendly people.We had the foie gras (with some rather unusual garnishing, like parmesan and Aywar) and the beef (cooked to order, and with a great sauce), along with some local red wine, which also went well with the cheese dessert (Saint Marcellin).

We had been driving around village to village looking at property, sites, churches, sceneries and then the hunger called. We stopped in this village called Lunel and I am not into the pretentious and there were a couple of places that gave us the look over so we veered them. Then just as we head towards the church, I hear echoing through the street old french music and we stumble onto this lovely lovely restaurant. It smelt of Caramel, there were lovely flowers and the tables and chairs were perfect for a hot sunny day. The place was everything you dream of sitting in a village drinking wine and eating...well french - sounds unoriginal but it was great! I had Salmon and hubby had the Steak and large portions. The whole affair was delicious as was our wine and then dessert was just as lovely! It was a great lunch and hope one day to go back! The Restaurant is in the old Church and it was part of the Compostela de Camino - the Way of St. James. History, Friendly staff and fantastic food....what more can you ask for in France?

This restaurant has a stunning location on the beach and it was very pleasant to sit there and soak up the wonderful sea views. However the food was just acceptable, and the service was very slow. I ordered a dish with king prawns which were tasteless. When the manageress/ owner asked me why I had left them and I gave her my answer she scolded me for not appreciating the fact they were wild prawns. Very strange customer service, but whatever.
