O'soleil - Mouans-Sartoux

We should have left when the smoke and odour of fat hit us as we walked through the door but as a Mouans Sartoux local had given a strong recommendation we stayed. I wish we had not bothered, a waste of 75 Euros. There was no flavour of fish in the soggy ‘fried morue balls’ and the ‘hot’ mains had cold rice served on cold, dirty plates. With no sign of any ownership or management out front, the only possible explanation could be that there was a stand in chef.

I use to go there at any time, the chef is amazing, I never been upset! Nice selection of wines, very friendly staff! I cannot wait to have a dinner there again! See you in 1 month!

We found a warm welcome from the owners of this restaurant; the husband is the chef, his wife serves in the restaurant and explains the origins of the dishes which we found interesting and helpful. It was delicious food and beautifully cooked. There was a refreshingly different choice of dishes with a flavour of the Seychelles. I had chicken in coconut milk which was wonderful. My husband had fish in an equally tasty sauce. Both dishes were accompanied by a variety of vegetables and chutneys. We were very pleasantly surprised by this unpretentious yet original restaurant and spent time at the end of the meal talking to the chef and his wife. I highly recommend a visit here.

Exceptional! very good reception, very good food, the place has a simple and effective decoration. everything is absolutely perfect (and not too spicy!

Too good the exotic flavors of this little restaurant! far from the stereotypical dishes we have enjoyed and well copied for desire!
