L'Atelier du pêcheur — Restaurant in Toulouse

This place is fabulous. It's a different, if unique, concept but the staff are so helpful (even for those as terrible speaking French as I am).

As others have mentioned, you have to decide what seafood you'd like and the quantity in grams/kilos. In our case we just fancied moules frites, so ordered 1.5kg for three of us. Et voila, out it comes beautifully cooked.

Everything is clearly priced so is very simple. For example, the tuna was ~50 euros/kg. An average person might eat 200g. Bar a few exceptions, I thought it was very reasonable but you'd expect to pay top prices for lobster.

Overall a great experience that we thoroughly enjoyed. ...

Please be aware of what you choose. Let them write down the price of the weight and check if salad, etc is included. The fish was fresh and prepared in a simple way(which i do like) but when i told them they had forgotten one of my choices, they added it extra , i was unpleasantly surprised by the final bill. The price did just not correspond with the weight of fish, etc The should add everything on their machine and make it very clear. The owner reduce bill with 3 1/2 euros, but i still paid too much: 58 euros for 1 moules frites, 2 coquilles saint jaques, a few razor shells, 2 oysters, a piece of fish of 170 grams, small salad, bottle of water...

Really, every foreign visitor to Toulouse who appreciates fine seafood should visit this unique restaurant. The shellfish is fresh and sweet, and the fish on display, which can be cooked any way you choose, is right off the boat. The side dishes were another standout. Try the grilled vegetables and caponata. Chef Jo has a real talent for seafood preparation and the friendly and efficient service was just top-of-the- line. Special thanks to Bruno for the very warm welcome. A final strong point. The price/value relationship is very favorable here. By all means, go. You will surely...
