Le P'tit Crabe - Réserver une table

For our last night on holiday we decided to treat ourselves and eat out. le P'tit Crabe seemed nice with a good seafood menu. There was a reasonable choice and something to please everybody although their meat menu was a little expensive and limited. We were seated and our drinks were served quickly. I ordered a menu and my starter (cold) was served very quickly. We waited a really long time to be served. It was a Friday night but the restaurant was not full and people who'd arrived after us were served before us. Eventually the waitress said 'sorry it's coming' as we must have been looking at her balefully. Then a little while later, she brought 3 out of 4 dishes. My youngest son had to wait even longer for his mussels. My eldest son had a piece of beef which was good but small. It was accompanied by a small square of potatoes gratin and a circle of ratatouille, was was my cod with crumble. The ratatouille was cold and pretty disgusting. The potato serving was really small. My cod was a good piece of fish but the crumble seemed too hard. The sauce was excellent and homemade, as was the mayonnaise for my dh's seafood platter (which was the only generous thing on the table). There were not so many chips, although they were very nice and the mussel portion was not that generous. Even a young boy thought the portion was too small! The desserts of creme brulee praliné and chocolate mousse were acceptable in size and tasted good, but nothing exceptional. Apart from the serious service problem and lack of apology, I think this restaurant is trying to be nouvelle cuisine but is just using this as an excuse to present tiny portions. The potatoes were not haute cuisine, and the ratatouille was awful. If we hadn't had the dessert, we would have left hungry.

We ate here again having been a few times before. Well worth a visit. Nicely situated looking across the marina. The choice is very good and it include a seafood platter for anyone who enjoys this. We had the 25.50 euros menu which is good value. Try the soupe de poison cappuccino which is a great variation. Good service and nice surroundings. If going there at holiday times it is advisable to book.

Overlooking the port this is an ideal place to sit and relax over some wonderful food.Most welcoming by the staff and look after us during our meal. With not being able to speak too much French the staff were most helpful. The food was excellent and the pudding were really delicious.There is a need to book in advance as it get very busy particularly in the summer.

Port Crouesty has many seafood restaurants along the marina. This restaurant offers a number of set menus and dishes of the day, which we found appealing. We chose moules and frites which were nicely cooked and presented. Other diners had steaks or huge seafood platters to share. It catered for children too. Reasonable cost, friendly and we would return.
