We went to La Farondole for dinner Sept 6, 2014. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary, in the area where we had our wedding, we 'd spent a wonderful day at the beach, and we were really looking forward to our evening. However, we were very...disappointed. AMBIENCE: The rooftop restaurant is in a beautiful spot. Unfortunately the restaurant itself is a total waste of that space. All of the tables are unfortunately illuminated by garish spotlights which change colour from a lurid red, to ghastly shades of blue and green, evoking alternately a horror movie, a dark room and a laboratory. I did ask our waiter if he could turn it off, and he asked me why. I told him that it was unpleasant t...
when we arrived and saw the panorama and the hotel, we thought it was one of those gastronomic experiences that they rarely get! but as soon as we came out of the elevator and heard the laughing and loud waitress, who swarmed around in the kitchen, we were already surprised. that doesn't sound very professional. then we got no one to welcome us! So we went to our table that was booked in advance by ourselves! when the beautiful but seriously vivid waitress finally arrived with the menu, we started to doubt us with our choice of the place. the tables had no table linen, they were torn, and it was very casual. one of the glaszaun was broken and you were hardly lighter to read the menu enough t...
a very good reception, a quality service even if a few forgets during the meal. Very tasty dishes but which missed seasoning even if one can say that it is different for each but a minimum. a big negative point, the wine, hot served grasshoppers, how to kill it and not appreciate it at its fair value. for red wine, under such warmth, it is served a fresh minimum and not at room temperature, it spoils all the aroma of wine and only alcohol springs. For dishes, fresh and very well cooked vegetables with a homemade purée creamy. I took some veal that was a little too cooked to my taste but I would say normal, I was not asked to cook for my meat. For desserts I'm afraid the chocolate marrow is i...
The reception with the valet is top. concerning the reception at the level of the restaurant it was very warm. We had with our appetizer of the tapenade that was very good. we also had before the entrance a salmon tartar. Then we took entries that were fairly copyy and of very good quality. Even people who don't take entrances had a tomato gaspacho. when they were very good and well cooked. We were also surprised by the quality of the wines offered notably the rosé castle minuty 281. the service has been of quality with a very attentive server and who knows the products it offers. I recommend this restaurant with a beautiful view and a quality service.

Food is ok but service was miserable. Waited over an hour after reservation before any food or drink was provided. Waiter unable or uninterested in getting the check paid. View is wonderful but the lighting at night is closer to a disco than a restaurant....The light change colors fairly quickly which makes reading a menu difficult. Would be helpful if I wanted to dance but just annoying when trying to enjoy dinner and the view.
one of my favorite places. the restaurant works from mai to oktober. it is located on the dach of the small hotel la farandole. the service is friendly, they speak French, English and Russian. the menu is excellent: good appetizers, fresh fish and meat, a good wine variety. the sea with small boats, the island opposite the sky! this is a good place for dinner with friends or family.
beautiful location! fabulous music that we enjoyed wonderful eating aswell! beautifully cooked and presented. if we really want to be fussy, the tirimisu was too creamy and sweet, but this is personal preference. the rest was really nice.
beautiful view with good food. the dishes were actually too big. Maybe the price was a bit high because of the size. service was very easy, no connection purely business.

Awesome view! Good food. Good service. But limited menu (same for lunch AND dinner). Lacked a bit of ambiance. Nice background music would have been nice.
Not on the cheap side, food is fresh and tasty and the views and the sea air only add to the experience.
