Le Lido — Restaurant in Calvi

LOcation ! Location Location ! Le lido has the most spectacular spot by the beach. You must do the reservations beforehand to ensure that the you get your deck chairs. The first evening that we went , we spotted an empty pair , asked one of the waiters if we could occupy it . he said yes at first . As we were settling our kids there we were asked to leave as the ' present guests of the resturant ' are given preference. I did wince with embarrasment then. Basically , they want to be sure you spend a your money there.

Our experience has been nasty. Despite the waitress good intentions to make us feel comfortable the food was not at all at the level of the quality restaurant they pretend to be. Moreover tasteless and not worthy the price. In addition, when I complained about the calamari, the responsible person argued with me and kept talking about it during the payment. Whats the point of asking: is everything good? and when the answer is a complain the manager try to justify the mistake and that you are wrong? Indeed, save your reply to this comment because the customer has the right to say what’s the experience has been, do not try to cover it up like you did while we were having our...
