"my new favorite restaurant in narbonne! we stopped by a hot and busy day in narbonne and chose a place in the shade. our server, senastian, was absolutely wonderful. I told him he was so sweet! We started with our usual coffee. a milk coffee for me and a double espresso for my husband. They were ready in a few minutes and were the best we've ever had in france. I'm not a fan of traditional French cuisine so the brewery was quite in my alley. I've been looking for a hamburger and fries and what I've received has not disappointed. It was huge and delicious and there was a sauce a little like mayo and ketchup mixed, so no need to add either. My husband ordered his favorite luncheon meal made up of omelette, fries and salad. our meals have come out extraordinarily fast and hot. He said it was the best omelette he had in france even if he was sorry at the beginning not to have ordered the hamburger too. He wasn't sorry long because he quickly had half of my hamburger because he was way too big for me, so he had the best of both. the restaurant is located on the old square right next to the main square of the robine canal and offers the best views of both. It was a very nice afternoon to dine on the square, people watched and listened to all the sounds of a busy Saturday, including the music of dean martin, tony bennett, etc. from the speakers of an apartment overlooking the place from above. And I said afternoon? Yes. It was about 2:00 when we arrived. an hour where the majority of restaurants in the south of the france close after noon, to reopen only at 6pm or later. It was an extra surprise not overlooked by us, the Americans, in search of a meal at a time when we are hungry. After our meal, we each ordered another coffee tour to our busy but attentive server. I want to add for the owners - I hope you know what jewel you have for an employee. I was very seduced by the young and adorable sebastian. it was open and friendly and just a little affectionate with all customers at its tables. When he saw us having problems with French, he did not hesitate to intervene and help in English. He treated everyone like he was happy to see them. I hope you can hang on to this young man because your company can only prosper with him as an ambassador! Overall, it was the perfect French culinary experience. and prices were reasonable enough to start!"

"We chose this place because it was a wonderful atmosphere at the halls and food looked right, but we regretted it! The charming lady in charge kindly found us a common table, standing next to some very pleasant Germans. our order was taken by a smiling, diminutive and muscular server of Arab origin with a pretty pigtail that took our order, then we waited and waited. with the Germans next to us and the people behind us, we waited and waited. we reminded our server of wine and water and finally the wine arrived but not the water. Finally, our food has arrived, or part of our food order has arrived but not the other two dishes, so we have rushed back, reminding our server that we were always waiting for the other two dishes and water. He was overwhelmed, angry, just like the Germans next to us who had commanded before us and still had no food. Then it turned out that the food we had given us was in fact the order of the Germans and when it became obvious, our server got very angry and accused us of deliberately diverting the order of the Germans. Now, I've been visiting this corner of france for 20 years, I've been speaking almost fluent in French and I'm eating a lot at the restaurant, but never has any server accused me of diverting another customer order. It was hilarious with our server - at that moment a very angry Arab man - standing there at the end accusing us while the error was all of him, what even the hungry Germans next to us agreed was not our fault. You couldn't have invented it. and we were always waiting for the other two dishes we ordered to arrive with the poor Germans who were so patient. 20 minutes passed. I don't know. My water was still not here. The hungry Germans were still patient, which was more than we could say for the group behind us who was so hungry! Now the waiter even refused to look at us, but the nice lady in charge came and we explained what had happened and she said she would fix the problem. It was clearly chaos in the kitchen and, unfortunately, it was not able to solve it. So, when our next dish finally arrived after another 15 minutes, we gave it to the Germans, who were always waiting, pity for them and as an excuse. We decided to leave at that time and asked for the addition and when I explained very quietly to our server in French current that it was the worst restaurant experience and that it was certainly the worst server I ever met in my life, it completely lost the plot and faced me by shouting and cheering in a threatening way while the whole restaurant looked at. I then refused to pay as a protest sign, but I quickly turned back while he shouted that he called the police! It was a wonderful but really useless theatre and as I listened to the bile flowing from his mouth and looked at the hatred in his eyes, I wondered if that was how it was to face a disbalanced fanatic. fortunately, my friend moved in to calm him down and the danger went away, but useless to say that we will not return and I would at least recommend that the server be sent out in deradicalization before it is released again with the customers. Or someone could get hurt next time."
