Restaurant La Becassiere

This restaurant is almost on our doorstep, but whenever we eat out we seem to get in the car and go somewhere else …We’ve been here a couple of times before and have always enjoyed our meal but, as we’ve been with other people, the good company somewhat overshadowed the meal. However, tonight, my wife and I went on our own (it was Saturday night after all).The restaurant has been in the same family since 1999, and they do not seem to be resting on their laurels. It’s on the main road between Grasse and Draguignan, down in the plain from Montauroux itself, and in an area which has seen commerces spring up, a little like an industrial estate. However, it is set back from the road, with plenty...

I can’t say we go here regularly, but as we live in Montauroux we’ve been maybe 5 or 6 times before. Over the years, we have found it consistently good, so it’s one of the places we have no hesitation in going to, given the opportunity. (My last TA review: 22 June 2015)Today, a Tuesday evening in early December, 9 of us were here for a spontaneous wedding anniversary dinner. There was a crackling log fire to welcome us in the dining room on this chilly evening, and a huge oak table which accommodated all of us in comfort.We all went for the 28€ menu which offers a good and varied choice (you can download the menus from the website): entrée, main course and dessert. My choice was the Marbré d...

We enjoyed our meals so much that we returned for the 2nd time within a few days and had planned on returning for the 3rd time but did not manage. As I am writing this, I am kicking myself for not making the time to do so.We love everything about this restaurant; terrace seating/ambiance, food and service. Apps: Shrimp served with couscous was tasty. The Duck served in balsamic reduction was ridiculously delicious; super tender and no grease. Not too crazy about the side dishes, potato and tomato/eggplant/bacon layers. The lemon dessert was decent, not sure what to expect but I had expected to be a killer. All this for only 28Euros! 2nd time, we went and tried the plat du jour for 12Euros at...

We have been very happy a few years ago with this restaurant and our kids wanted to renew the experience this year. 2 waitresses were in service: a young friendly blond and an older short haired not friendly blond. We have been served by the second one. Maybe she had a bad day. But even our kids (11, 13, 15 years old) were shocked, and it was not a language problem, we are all French speaking natives. Here attitude, the tone of her voice, her replies to our questions were not nice at all. She didn't seem much nicer to the other tables.The food was not as good as in our souvenirs. I ordered duck with honey and it was fabulous. My wife and older son ordered a steak (entrecôte) and it was so ha...

We held our wedding reception this last year at La Becassiere. The Ricco Family are special people who understand service and food with a kind of intimacy and delicate touch hard to come by. The food Mr. Ricco makes is well constructed and from the heart. A seven course meal that ended with cake at 3am in the morning left all our guests, drunk, full and fully elated. The patience and attention to detail the Ricco’s paid to us in making our evening perfect should not go unnoticed. Our guests are still talking about the meal. La Becassiere a gem of a restaurant. We can’t wait to dine there on our next visit!

We have not been here for some years but last night was very pleasant indeed. There is a new (for us) outside terrace with comfy, shaded tables and chairs and the menus were good, very traditional, with nice accompaniments and competitively priced. Service was attentive, the proprietere was on hand to take the orders. We will come back.

For the most part, I usually agree with my fellow Yelper Stephanie Sbut I can understand why we diverged so much this time.

Sort of tucked away in an industrial zone is a small little sushi oasis called Kura Sushi.
