Seven Plage — Restaurant in Arles

Me and my family (group of 7) visited this place today as we had heard great things but did not even consider staying due to the absolutely disgusting manner in which we were greeted! I cannot speak french so my wife (who is french by birth) tried to explain that there were 7 of us who would like to book a table to eat and for me to use the wifi as i am working. The little frenchman who clearly had a napoleon complex wasted no time in telling my wife to “be quiet” while he explained the rules. As if this wasnt rude enough, he went on to declare that every single sunbed was booked (which is to be expected and was not an issue) and that the wifi that is advertised on their website is actually non existent!! When my wife explained that i would use my phone and that i just needed a space to sit, he said the only space was in the corner as he needed EVERY OTHER space for paying customers (the place was totally empty and i would obviously be purchasing coffee and food). If he as the maitre’d of the place treats customers this way then i dread to think what the rest of the staff are like! Avoid this place like...

The welcome was pleasant enough and the service efficient. Despite us not having a reservation, the two of us were seated surprisingly quickly, as it was packed.

My linguine palourdes was tasty and contained enough palourdes i.e. the shells weren't empty like I've found in some of these busy, on-the beach places.

We enjoyed our meal but felt it was a little overpriced for what it was and considering there wasn't really an ambiance, compared to many similar beach restaurants along the Med Coast, in Hérault (Sète, Cap d'Agde, Vias, Sérignan Plage).

Being Sainte-Marie-de-la-Mer, it was also really humid in the restaurant, though this is the case all along the Camargue coast in...

We were parking with our camper at the Les Saint parking spot and went a few minutes to this nice restaurant instead of just the beach bar infront of the camping and parking place and it was the best decision! Without a reservation we got a nice table and the supportive waiter quickly took our orders. I general don't like all those tiny fish bones and for everybody the same I can just recommend the Dorade Royal there :) just a few large fish bones you can't unsee ;) and tasty. But also the Loup was good and the razor clams, ah the dessert, too. Definitely...
