An unpleasant experience on August 19 around 3 pm! Every time I went in Saint Tropez, I used to go to Senequier to have a drink and enjoy the view of the port. Every time I served coffee, a glass of water was brought to me, it seems normal for coffee to be served with a glass of water because coffee is bitter. I asked for 2 coffees and the waitress had a very surprised reaction "that's all?" which I thought was terrible, I don't know who hired that person (a young girl, tall and thin, with a dark hair color tied in a ponytail at the back), this is an example of "that's not how you treat customers" everyone is free to order what they want. She brought us the coffees, of course she didn't bother to bring us a glass of water for coffees, although in the past I always received water with my coffee. I preferred not to ask for this, thinking that who knows from where she will bring me the water or maybe spit in it. The prices at Senequier are quite high even for drinks and I didn't want to pay 10€ for a bottle of water that I had with me anyway considering that it was a hot summer day, but isn't it nice to drink from your own bottle of water at the restaurant, right? It's not normal to go somewhere and be treated like that, it doesn't mean that if I don't order 10 things, I don't have money and you have to treat me differently than those who come there and 1. have a lot of money or 2. those who try to put money aside for a whole year and then, they come and spend them all on a 7-day holiday on the French Riviera. It is very bad to judge a person without knowing the background. This experience made me no longer want to go to this restaurant in the future and to give a chance to the neighboring...
Read moreDelicious food, super position for boat lovers (but not super quite), service experience can be improved. Was at the restaurant on Sunday for lunch. A late lunch allowed finding place with no booking. We (were 2) started with an aperol and a Saint-Tropez spritz (raspberry based), which we tasted with bread home baked by the bakery connected to the restaurant. We then went on with snails, served with their butter and Persil sauce): delicious, including a second bread type served together. Then we moved to crispy grilled octopus, served on a home made pesto and a purée. Spectacular. The Food we tasted was superb and recommend to try. Unfortunately we experienced a bit of uncomfortable at the table. We got a privileged place on the front lane (facing the yachts), but the places were that packed that the waiter gad to ask me a couple of times to move and let him pass to serve the next table. Less seats or smaller chairs would help improving the comfort. All in all by the way, the quality of food is what I will remember. Side note: the place is very iconic on many details: the photos of the celebrities who were ist the restaurant, the red chairs created some un-comfort, but were comfortable when seat, and finally the bakery connected to the restaurant is selling own products and even own merchandise. All pretty...
Read moreThis evening we were met with an astonishing level of rudeness and arrogance by a thoroughly unpleasant hostess. After patiently waiting in line for over 30 minutes, we finally reached the front and requested a table for two adults and our little child, mentioning that we would like to have a drink and a small bite. Without the slightest courtesy, she abruptly informed us that only full dining was allowed.
We walked away, momentarily put off by her attitude, but decided a few minutes later to return with the intention to dine. When I approached her again to let her know we had reconsidered and were happy to order dinner, her response was nothing short of disdainful. In a curt and commanding tone, she told us to get back in line — no exception, no acknowledgment of our previous wait.
When I politely explained that we had already waited for half an hour, her reaction was a cold, dismissive “I don’t care.” Frankly, we were treated with the kind of disregard one might expect at a cattle market, not a supposedly refined establishment.
This experience was not only disappointing — it was insulting. Is this truly how Senequier chooses to treat willing, respectful guests who return...
