Symon's Restaurant — Restaurant in Quatre Cocos

A wow experience it was..saying that we felt at home is not enough. Being in the festive season we called them for reservations at the last minute for Christmas eve to book for a table of 5 person. As we were running late we called again to extend the arrival time by one hour to my surprise they agreed easily. Reaching there around 20h30 we were greeted by one of the staff and guided to our table which was located in a beautifully decorated corner. As it was off peak hours there were only 3 to 4 more tables occupied. Beautifull christmas decors, lighting and cool mix old and new music. The waiter is very kind and attentive he came to take our orders and also came to enquire if all good in between our meals. We too two starter their signature Crispy calamari ring and crispy marinated octopus. Having the first bite itself was enough, a very tender fleshy octopus crispy and spicy coating hot on the outside wow. They deserve a thumbs up. For the calamari ring it was a generous portion served very hot with some sweet chilly sauce. We took magic bowl each ss our main course. It was yummy not too dry with reasonable amount of sauce and ingredients. They eggs was beaten and fried dry the chicken was a bit less in quantity otherwise fair enough. Service is 5 * very rapid 5minutes or no waiting time at all. Price Is a bit high but okay I can understand as they are located on the coastal road next to solana hotel they are mostly tourist oriented and more likely a pub with outdoor seating and music. They also served beautiful shaked cocktails, indian cuisines with naan and curry you can see pictures of the menus I took and also menu card and the place itself. If you are looking for a lovely place in the east coast to dine in or simply for some drinks and snacks bites trust me this is the place.

Just one mention and they cater for all your needs. Very good atmosphere and ambiance it suit birthday parties very...

Recently visited Symon's Restaurant for a birthday dinner. I was very disappointed with the whole experience with them.

It took them almost 1hr30 min between our appetizer and main course. When I spoke with the owners/manager they claimed that it's due that the restaurant is busy. And also that they give the guest time between the appetizer and the main course. However, no one came to ask us if we are ready for the main course. In between, they also forgot 1 appetizer, which join 30 min later. The restaurant was indeed busy. But not fully occupied. Lots of kids running around and were loud.

If you want a quiet dining experience it's not the place..

The food was not very tasty even though it's not cheap. I had better tasty food in other Mauritian Restaurants on the island. The seafood combo was not tasty at all.

On the other hand, the waiters were polite and responsive.

My review is purely based on genuine observations. And the people accompanying that day shared the same feedback.

Definitely i...

Starters were great...and then...I received my main course of chicken/egg and noodles, which is when I found a fly in my food. Once I made the waiter aware of this his response was absolutely ridiculous😂 He said that when it's hot the flies fly towards the fan to cool off (we were seated underneath a fan) and one must been flung or blown on to my plate by the fan. No dude, that fly was as oily and sauced up as my noodles and chicken. Anyway, I was not put off or mad for that matter and simply removed the fly and continued to eat my meal. We then requested the bill, at around 19.38pm....time went on and I grew restless, I even made eye contact a few times hoping he would register and bring the damn bill! He didn't, so I got up and went to the reception/bar only to be absolutely disgusted by the state of it. We were seated outside so I wasn't expecting a spotless place, but even the inside was gross. The waiting staff seemed so disorganized and...
