L'image - Montpellier

Well wht to say: excellent food, really pleasant music and the owner is very polite and helpful.We tried the tartare, foie gras, snails and the goose leg: absolutely recommended!If you still feel hungry I would recommend as well the tarte tatin and the chocolate cake!Enjoy!!!

We found this place through The Fork, it would have been very hard to find otherwise. The restaurant is quite small, but it seem to have a big heart! We were very well taken care of, and even got some lessons in French. We decided to go for the menu, which had a very good price for what you got. Delicious food, definitely didn't feel like a tourist trap, probably due to the hidden location. I'm pretty sure we were the only tourists there on that evening, the rests must have been locals. I would gladly go there again.

Great, rustic French restaurant with a very friendly owner! We felt like we were a part of the neighborhood. Highly recommend!

Strolling the winding streets of Montpellier in search of dinner we chanced upon L'image on a tiny back alley. The diners at the outside tables appeared happy and the food appeared promising so we checked out the menu. That was when our host said he "spoke English like a Spanish cow". Somehow that hooked us in and we chose the last small outside table for two. The menu was limited but the choices excellent. We started with entre salads - salmon and duck. Both were generous, well seasoned and tasty, complemented by excellent bread, but then this is France. Our plats of gambas and duck comfit were similarly large and well prepared. The rose' wine we ordered was not available so the owner offered us a much more expensive bottle at the lower price, a very thoughtful and appreciated bit of hosting. We would definitely return.

Cool atmosphere, on a tiny street with a lot of french character. A bit pricy, but that what you would expect from center of Montpellier.
