La Grillardine - Réserver une table

I checked the reviews of the closest restaurants to my hotel and saw La Grillardine had generally good reviews.I was greeted by the friendly owners who after my attempt at a couple of sentences in French, spoke quite good English.Having read the good reviews I was surprised at how low the prices were. There were options for as little as 9-10 euros for a main or a set menu for around 17 euros, however I opted for the entrecôte (steak) with shallot sauce for a very reasonable 16 euros and was pleased I did.The food was ready in a matter of minutes and looked and smelled fantastic. I opted for a medium steak and it was cooked to perfection. The meal came with vegetables with a balsamic dressing...

We ate at this tiny (12 seats downstairs similar number upstairs) restaurant as it rated so well on TA. The service was OK - although it took a while to get our order taken - unusual in such a small place. The Camembert starter was excellent - tasty and beautifully cooked.

Having been before, we had to return and we were definitely not disappointed! La Grillardine is in the main restaurant sector of Boulogne, and the evening we were there (a Saturday), la Grillardine was full (mostly local French folks) and turning people away when most of the other restaurants were desperate to get business. Very good value 3 course menu, great range of house wines, friendly and efficient staff. yes its a small place, but that just adds to its charm and atmosphere!

Nice little restaurant with a friendly couple running the place. They specialize in meat so not many fish choices. The beef was surprisingly tender, you can ask for some veggies and rice as a change to ubiquitous fries everywhere. There seemed to be quite a few locals, which is always a good sign. My only remark would be that the tea cup was very small, half-filled with water cooling oof very quickly - for a tea drinker like me that's a definite no-go.

Up to the usual standard, frequented this establishment for the forth time. Never disappointed. The hosts/owners are vey welcoming and whilst not brilliant with English we get by with a few laughs. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.
