Had a lovely 3 course meal for two there last night. Stumbled on the place whilst walking around Beziers. I had the gambas starter, the deer main and the blackcurrant dessert. My partner had the poultry vol-au-vent starter, the cannelloni main and the financier pear dessert and the quality, portion sizes and service were all excellent. A lovely couple of hours taken with no pressure to be rushed. Just under 90€ including 3 glasses of wine which I thought was a bargain in these settings.

Went for a drink on the spectacular terrace last time, have been for lunch before.
A recent venue possibly still finding its feet in some ways, but finally hitting its stride which is great to see.
Recommend the rosé pétillant, delicious!
Also, dog friendly, which we love (have sat inside with our small dog before). We'll be back.

Called in for a drink in the (small) bar area. The decor was lovely, as was the view. I imagine the
restaurant is more of a special occasion type place, judging by the atmosphere and prices.
Drinks were pretty expensive (€7 for a small can of beer) and service was hit and miss. Some of the bar staff seemed poorly trained and disinterested.

Very beautiful restaurant, a menu full of surprises... the servers are great, very welcoming and pleasant. The dishes are very good and well presented, the only downside is that the salmon is a little overcooked unfortunately. But apart from that, everything was perfect... Thank you to all the team for this time, but especially to the waiter who took care of us and gave us good advice throughout our meal, and for the big surprise of the digestives ...at the top. We will come back for our next stay

L'Alter-Native
An Alter-Native – or another birth, even a rebirth – is how Gilles Goujon views this project. In Béziers, where he grew up and studied, the three-Michelin-star chef of L'Auberge du Vieux Puits, who needs no introduction, is carving out a new niche: developing a concept of eco-responsible seafood- and plant-based cuisine. With vegetables from the aquaponics garden and other treasures from the South of France, executive chef Quentin Pellestor-Veyrier cooks up appetisingly generous and no-nonsense dishes: œuf en blanc-manger surprise, wild mushroom tartlet; a fine morel mushroom in "Rabelaisian salmagundi", lettuce broth and green cardamom; sole with sea urchins, asparagus and celeriac millefeuille… Make a beeline for the lovely patio terrace in fine weather.

Pica Pica
Fabien Lefebvre, formerly Michelin-starred at Octopus, as well as being crowned "Meilleur Ouvrier de France" 2004, is the chef behind this delicious and friendly brasserie. He serves up uninhibited Mediterranean cuisine, cleverly blended with other influences. The menu features a selection of tapas (hummus with cumin and pita bread; croquetas de jamón), picas such as lamb kebab with za'atar and sumac, or grilled octopus. More elaborate dishes include semi-salted cod, watercress and gnocchi, lemon and caviar emulsion. And then there are the tasty desserts. A down-to-earth concept, with sharing in mind. The lunch menu is a steal. A resounding success.

La Maison de Petit Pierre
Enthusiastic chef Pierre Augé is at the helm of this restaurant with a personalised decor that is located close to the bullring. He greets each and every customer with an infectious smile because he is there to spread joy with his tasty creative cuisine based on local ingredients! Rather than bask in the media hype, he is clearly driven by a desire to continuously explore new culinary avenues. It's a joy to behold – and tuck into – dishes such as his whisky-marinated pavé de bœuf steak and cauliflower mousseline with vanilla; hake with piperade and green jus; or stracciatella with asparagus and bacon tuile. A buzzy, friendly vibe, enhanced by the personality of the chef, and the warm, cheerful service of his wife, adds the final flourish: recommended!

L'Ambassade
Fresh ingredients, balanced dishes: chef Patrick Olry, well known in the region, demonstrates his know - how and consistency. In particular, be sure to try the tasting menus based on truffles, scallops or lobster, which are in no small part responsible for the establishment's reputation.

Calice
Béziers-born chef Fabien Lefebvre is a Meilleur Ouvrier de France and no stranger to us here (previously at Octopus and still at the helm of Pica-Pica). This restaurant is housed in an Art Deco building with a modern extension: a successful makeover abounding with curving floral forms, with a round dining space done out in soft, natural and organically shaped materials. The chef delivers a modern take on Mediterranean cuisine that pays homage to quality ingredients and conjures up well-defined flavours on the plate. One fine example is his turbot meunière with a grilled fish bone jus and celeriac millefeuille. Remarkably warm, attentive and competent service. Opt for four to six courses from a set menu that is constantly evolving in line with the seasons and the markets. The wine list boasts 800 labels.
