Bistrot Du Marin - Saint-Martin-de-Ré

A very good evening on the port of Saint Martin. Tapas, mussels and waitress very smiling and good advice. I recommend!

16 August terrace full. Very good reception by the waitress freshly arrived and then... patatras the boss mixes. Unpleasant and gives the impression of being always overwhelmed... Fortunately the cuisto is good. Service a little long, but normal in full boom. Map of missing allergens despite the fact that it has been mandatory since 2015... In short, well eaten, but the boss should think of leaving room for young people.

So I'll start by setting out the positive points because this restaurant really has. The food is pretty good, the waitresses are pleasant and smiling, the place is one of the only ones that is not crowded, and the restaurant toilets are clean. The general atmosphere is complex with a lost Basque identity with products that don’t really make sense on the map. Too bad there is no sauce that accompanies the meat because it is good. The Basque plate lacks work with perhaps two varieties of cheese.

Sorry not to leave 5 stars. The cause: the prices, since 2021 the one here has gone from 14€ to 19€ for the mussel break...Although the preparation and the products have not changed....a wish the servers had the same increase

Restaurant with a view on the back of the port. Very pleasant terrace in good weather. We tasted the cocktail based on Lillet, fried mussels (homemade and a brusheta all accompanied by a sangria. It was very good.
