Les Bistronomes - Montpellier

Food is excellent; service is perfect; we've been twice and will be back! A lot of care was taken with preparation and presentation, and definitely have dessert too!

Delicious fish course incredibly good value at only 11.50€ for plat de jour and coffee. Level of cuisine what you'd expect from a much more expensive restaurant. Good friendly service, only small quibble (hence 4* instead of 5*) the table for two I booked in the covered terrace area was half in the doorway so anyone walking between the two areas would brush past so I had to ask for a table inside instead.

Found this gem on trip advisor, definitely worth a visit! The waiter was very friendly and took the time to translate the French menu into English as best as he could for us. We ordered a French version of a Thai beef salad and it was absolutely delicious!!! Full of flavour, light, refreshing and a massive serving. The chef kindly put it into 2 bowls for us as we were sharing without us having to ask. French fries were quite tasty and a nice accompaniment. The creme brûlée was also a generous serving and we were so glad we opted to try this scrumptious dessert. Great atmosphere in the square surrounded by leafy trees, children running around and lots of other restaurants. The food other guests were eating looked fantastic, especially the meat/cheese sharing plates.

You'll find there an excellent "Bistro" with original recipes and creative yet traditional french food. With a pleasant terrace and smiling waiters, don't miss this place for your lunch break.

Other restaurants may have a more extensive menu, more tables, etc. but this small restaurant serves simple, well-made meals that are delicious, with good, unobtrusive service. The wine with the dinner was good and reasonable. The ambience was pleasant: sitting out on the square, hearing the sound of the fountain plashing and watching people walking on by!One of the best meals I've had in Montpellier.
