Grill Courtepaille - Barentin

Nice staff but it wasn’t much different from a buffalo grill. Maybe I was expecting too much. The food was average. We enjoyed the desert more than the steak!

We were staying at the Ibis opposite, when we decided to eat here. What an excellent choice it was. The staff were friendly and efficient. The main dishes appeared to be mainly steak, burgers, and similar, cooked on a large barbecue area in the centre of the restaurant. The resulting food and wine could not have been better.

We were in the Ibis opposite, decided to wander over, it did look shut but just the lighting. Lovely welcome. Never eaten in one of these before. Had perfect temp bottled Desperados, a lovely mixed platter sharer. I had entrecote and my OH the cote de boeuf, both lovely, well cooked. We had the tarte au citron which was very tart just as it should be. It cost about €102 but we had quite a few beers which in France puts the price of your meal up very enjoyable would go again.

Sorry but this was awful. Food salty not French and staff didnt seem to care. Chicken dry andoullete stated awful. Waiters and waitresses didn't seem interested. It looks like the food is cookedmin front of you bug I dontbghink everything is as stuff can from the back kitchen door.

I had the tuna steak as main course, lemon pie for dessert. Food was reasonable, meeting the expectations for a Courtepaille restaurant. The rose wine from the house was ok. As a guest in the nearby Ibis Styles, I got a voucher (ask for it in the hotel) for a 15% discount
