Le Quai — Restaurant in Amiens

Visited Le Quai on our first night in Amiens after driving in from Cologne. We were greeted warmly but quickly brought upstairs to a corner table in the very back of the restaurant - when there were other available tables closer to more desirable areas. If this was due to reservations or not I’m not sure, but it was as far away from the servers as seemingly possible.

Food was great, but we had originally asked for a bottle of water and never received it despite asking three separate times for it.

Our server didn’t even bother to check on us throughout the entire meal unless we asked him over, one time to which he responded by waving his hand and muttering something under his breath. Can’t say I would recommend the restaurant to other tourists visiting from abroad as the service was the worst we’ve received in our two weeks of travelling so far.

The bread was good, and the table snack of a bit of popcorn was an interesting, appreciated addition. I hardly ever give 5 stars, and I was tempted this time. I'd give it 4.5, if there were half stars. I'll definitely come back when we are in...
