This is the best restaurant in Pattaya. It is beautiful, run by a big, charismatic French man. I cannot recommend it enough... it actually makes Pattaya a more beautiful place... for the quality of the place it is ridiculously cheap. The owner does it from a place of love. GO GO GO

Hidden away in a side road but very well worth visiting. A quirky place with lots of atmosphere. Food is excellent and the wines are reasonably priced. 5 Hour lamb is wonderful!

A hidden gem that we only found out about from our friends who are locals... The wonderful chef takes a lot of pride in his creations and serves up some of the most spectacular French food I have ever had in his charming dining room. The excellent food is complemented by superior service from the waitstaff, and the prices are... More

Nice cousy french restaurant well hidden from the outher world... The food was excellent and the service fantastic. The owner checked everything and was around the whole time. And the staff seemed very competent and could respond to all our questions. I will definitely return to this restaurant on my next trip to Pattaya.

Wow! That is the one word for this restaurant. Yes, it was a bit difficult to find but it was so totally worth it! Beautiful, very French atmosphere, amazing service and very good food. What else do you need in a restaurant? Absolutely loved the Quiche Lorraine and the 5 Hour Lamb! Though I have to warn you, it is... More
