"The best seafood restaurant in Menton. I know them for years and they keep high standard all time. Well organized owner, good chef, helpful waiters, relaxing atmosphere and fantastic dishes with wonderfull Bouillabaisse up front. What else?"
I've been making annual trips to Menton for the past dozen years and Le Nautic was always on my list of places to eat. The food was great and the view of the old Bastion with the Mediterranean in the background was outstanding. I especially enjoyed the camaraderie of their senior waiter. I was never really sure if he was French or Italian, but he always greeted me with a "boun giorno!", so I conversed with him in Italian. Just friendly chit chat. About the weather, our health, recommendations for fish and the unpredictability of the fountain in front of the restaurant. "Comme Una donna", he would say with a shrug of his shoulders when I pointed to the fountain in the square that was not work...
After years of visiting Le Nautic and enjoying fantastic seafood and great service, a recent lunch ended up in disappointment. I have no complaints about the food, which was quite frankly up to their usual standards. But the service was terrible. First off, the waiter was very aloof. Secondly, he ignored our table throughout the meal. And finally he made a mistake with our orders. I was the only one at the table to order an appetizer (a combination platter of smoked salmon and smoked trout), but when he brought out my appetizer he also brought out the entrees for the other guests at my table. I quickly finished the smoked fish, which I originally intended on sharing, but my entree was not fo...
We returned to this seafood restaurant following a walk through the Fete du Citron garden between the train station and the sea. It a walk from there to Le Nautic (just beyond the Cocteau Museum, facing the fortress at the end of the sea wall). Avoid all the restaurant tables along the sea and go here for the best fish. The special menu for the Fete du Citron (27 euros) was more subtle and tasty than you might think, with lemon and/or orange in each dish. There was an apero, sworfish carpacio, St. Pierre fish course, and (or course) lemon tart for dessert. The tart was not the French lemon tart, but more like a tarte Tropezian - and delicious. Go here anytime, however, for the sea food.
On a daytrip to Menton, my friends were craving seafood pasta and we decided that the menu of Le Nautic and the place itself with its nautical inspired interior decor looked inviting despite the absence of other diners (fair enough, it was pretty early for dinner by Mediterranean standards). Eventually they were disappointed by their spaghetti vongole and did not find the price (16 EUR) justified. Myself, I had a vegetarian pizza with buffalo mozzarella, which I found quite good, despite being a bit on the soggy side. Waiters were friendly and our food arrived pretty quickly. All in all, it was o.k., but I will try a different restaurant in Menton next time.

This restaurant located in front of Fort Menton, away from other restaurants.This is a very good restaurant, and all food here tastes great, but I should say that they make absolutely fantastic Bouillabaisse. They even introduce you to that fish what you will eat..We wanted to make a huge order, because we were hungry, but owner suggested to us not do it, due to Bouillabaisse its not only soup, its a fish and other seafood also.. and when we saw an amount of food what we got I regretted that we are only two person.. I should say that it was the best Bouillabaisse that we ever tried. I already scheduled my next Bouillabaisse trip there!!
Great little restaurant in MentonThe service was great very attentive.The seafood we had was fresh and very good flavors. Looking at other tables the pizzas were very well received. There was live entertainment on a Thursday and the owner also sang. Very special. Dessert was out of this world.Thanks for a great evening
We headed to Le Nautic more for its convenient location to the seafront than anything else and were rewarded with a delicious seafood lunch. The salade calamars and penne with salmon entrees were delicious. Courteous, helpful wait staff. Lovely relaxing atmosphere at our outside table overlooking Le Bastion.
We went for the french classic Bouillabaisse which didn't disappoint. Its a very large dish so we were very full at the end after starting with the shrimp cocktail. The ingrediens in both our dishes were very fresh and perfectly cooked. Service was good and personal and prices average for Menton.

My wife's choice of oysters to start- we shared, followed by my Marmite du Pecheur and her grilled Langoustine. A real seafood treat, all to the highest quality and professionally served. The price was at the top end of our normal budget but for a special occasion it was worth it.
