Le Grand Large - Sainte-Adresse

Unbearable view. impeccable service. Excellent kitchen. good value quality price.

Excellent fresh fish and shellfish by the side of the water. Delicious amuse-bouches. Unusual pairings such as sweetbreads and shrimp. Very attentive service.

On our first visit to Le Havre, this was the first restaurant we visited on arrival. The experience was so overwhelmingly good, that we returned 3 days later. The excellent dishes on a varied menu are expertly prepared and beautifully presented, from fresh, seasonal and locally-sourced ingredients. We had cooked dishes the first time and a large shellfish platter the second time. Service is tip-top and very welcoming. Our visits occurred in the first week of opening of the restaurant since the easing of lockdown: in the intervening months, it had undergone extensive refurbishing under new management (who had long been associated with the restaurant previously) and the result is an elegant space in which guests are close enough and far enough apart for congeniality decorated sparsely with old b/w photos of Le Havre, its ports and coast. As more guests fill the restaurant with the continuing easing of pandemic-induced constraints, the atmosphere will clearly become even warmer! We are looking forward to our next opportunity to visit Le Havre and Le Grand Large.

A very simple and sober restaurant. A little heat. The view of the restaurant is very beautiful but it is true that it is a pity that there is no outdoor terrace to enjoy the summer. We ate Saturday night. 36€ the flat menu semi-gastro has fish base. The samoussa was very good (I don’t like the base bottle), so I think it would have been even better based on another taste. The two little toasts to the salmon aperitif, I don’t like the white industrial bread of toasts. A lot of wine choices. The dish was good, I liked the presentation of the risotto as paved salmon (and pepper cream). At the level of taste I found that it lacks flavors however. Can be lemon...? I enjoyed the gourmet tea. Positive also at the sanitary level, very clean towels with individual hands. Very nice servers. We will return to taste other dishes when we return to Le Havre

The pictures talk about them quality products it was excellent with a careful team and a beautiful view
