La Paillote Bambou - La Grande-Motte

Beautiful location and facility; situated directly on the beach. eat and wein were ok, but the service was incredibly slow. the staff was helpful, simply overstretched. a little overpriced for what it was.

My man and I have come in the last 8 9 years every summer once a year after paillote bambou, and we have seen that the level of service, food and ambiente has deteriorated each year, while the prices have risen. we wanted to give it to him. the doubt this year, but were deeply disappointed. the ambiente is great with the beach, but the inside restaurant is filled with tables and is very loud. when we arrived, we waited 20 minutes before we were asked about drinks. the servants were all young, unskilled and relaxed. 3 4 times they wanted to serve the wrong one at our table and they joked about their mistakes as if it was not so important. our white wine was not cold, so I asked for ice cubes and they never came. When I asked the third time, I had to get up and approach the waitress. finally she got an ice cube but on the way to our table to chat with a colleague. the main dish was mediocre (cake fish in a watery sauce that only tasted butter, no other taste). the alternative fish shell was sold by the 100 gr in min. 700 gr, who came at an price of 84 eur! michelin stars price, this was not! also other dishes were too expensive. the music was too high for dinner as they also entertain all guests in the cocktail bar next to the restaurant. all in all, a place that has become greedy (too many tables, too high prices and not trained servants). this will be our last year of visiting this restaurant.

Bambou is right on the beach and really great particularly due to that. It also looks nice, simple mediterranean decor but effective : It gives you a nice relaxing feeling. However, service was almost non existent it took ages to have our drinks, then...our food. It’s true that we were a group of about 11 but it had been pre booked plenty of time to prepare. When it did come, the food looked good and it was tasty too. But not sure if really worth all the wait.. I would go there again for the location and maybe just order some easy drinks :

It was a great relief to take lunch and refreshments on a day when the outside temperature was 42 degrees. Great service, friendly staff and simple food, bien prepare. Would go back for sure.

After, having made a sea effect, the blue veil, white beach, the bamboo paillote remains for me the best on the beach of the great cross. the team is nice, whether it is the beach manager the servers or the person in charge of the reception. the kitchen is good, fresh products and quantities quite correct. for our part, burgers ( excellent) of tapas and a salad. no restaurant this time if. an excellent family moment where everyone can enjoy the beach and the setting. for who is the prices, I find this at the level of the overall service (quality of the dishes, cocktail and reception) . We'll be back with pleasure.
