It was a nice lively atmosphere. We had a couple of diet cokes waiting for the fish, which came quickly and was served with red wine and vinegar sauce and a little mound of gnocchi in an aromatic and some Brussel sprouts. The fish was perfect, as was the rest of the dish. For pudding I had the cake of the day which was a warm sponge containing pears and chocolate served with a little bit of custard. The sponge was light and tasty. Laura had crème brûlée. Then we had espresso to finish. Good efficient friendly service made for a very pleasant lunch and at 50€ for two -it was good value too!

Always excellent. Always a good welcome! read more Always excellent. Always a good welcome!

We arrived expecting a bit more to see and hungry, so used TA to source a good place, Nuts restaurant was full of locals which is a great sign, we were squeezed in with a warm welcome from the patron and the menu looked good. The locals were having a variety of salads, sandwiches and the larger plats du jour. I had some simple very fresh prawns for starters, so fresh and sweet and a cod main with girolles which was really excellent, it looked wonderful as the posted picture shows. The owner was super, really friendly and engaging and that created a great atmosphere in the place. Good wine selections as well by the glass with choices along with special dishes chalked up on boards around the walls. A very nice place and I would go back without question. It’s location is near the end of the Marina near the large central grass area where I think the university was, anyway there were lots of students about which gave a good young vibe. Give the place a go and be nice to the owner, he was a super chap!
