I give them a mostly because the service was totally unprofessional. They forgot to bring us food for an hour and when I asked if it was everything good, the waiter replied sarcastic “no, c’est fini” (no, it’s ended) and went away. Then the...starters didn’t arrive at all and they brought us the main plate, so we had to eat the main plates altogether with the starters which they brought a few minutes after. I didn’t asked any discount for the bad service and they didn’t bother to give us any type of refund of some type. The place is nice enough, but it’s not actually with the view on the lagoons as some reviews made us think. Yes, it’s in front of it, but there’s a road and a parking lot bet...
Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer is a typical seaside town, which includes plenty of touristy spots. Bar de l'Etang is not one of them. The menu is chock-full of local, fresh catch, but the standout is the Tellines a la Persillade. Simply prepared with butter and parsley, I would...be content to eat these every day during the warm weather (with a bottle of rose of course The Tellines offered here do not disappoint a HUGE plate filled with these triangular-shaped colorful clams is actually very filling, in spite of their small size. If you can snag a spot on their front patio, it makes for great gypsy-watching (when it's the season), people-interacting and sunset-gazing. It's the perfect spot for an...
Waited minutes at the door to be seated, and had a reservation. Waiters just looked at us and ignored us while we were waiting at the door. Got sat at a dirty table still with the bill and the waitress did not even know...we were new clients. Waited another minutes for the menu, and got asked times for our drinks by two different waiters. People around us started leaving without their courses and complained as well. Food arrived an hour late and vegetables and fries were cold. Recommended by locals but did not match expectations at all and should not be recommended.
We booked in advance a table; waited minutes from the time of booking to be seated at a table which already had used cutlery on it which was not removed until later; then waited around additional minutes without being able to get the...attention of the staff. We’ll never know the quality of the food; but it could not have possibly been worth enduring the service.

You are going to either love it or hate it here. Casually strewn tables sit out almost on the road opposite the parking area. Staff are very informal and chatty and bring a blackboard menu to choose the freshest of fish from. No frills dishes...celebrate simple fish flavours. Keep an open mind about the surroundings and you are in for a treat for your palette.
We enjoy a whole fish grilled and this small restaurant was one of only a few doing so. Superb cooking near the pond at the edge of the village. Staff helpful and cheerful. Definitely not a tourist trap! Great Value highly recommend will return
A place where the locals go for fresh seafood. Good ambiance, not your standard waitresses and away from the tourist crowd. Occiasionally they do forget your drink order but it is part of the experience

Finalmente un locale non turistico. Prorompente la cameriera ma gentile. Che dire ottimo il pesce: eccezionale la sogliola. Merita provarlo
If you like fresh fish freshly cooked and no messing this is the best local restaurant in the Camargue.
