Lucky to enjoy a sunny November lunch at the terrace of the Yole. Attentive service and excellent dishes. Generous serving for the seafood (not in picture). Pluma Iberique and Lieu Jaune were divine.

Perfect combination between relaxed seafood joint and marine elegance. Ocean-side setting, comfortable chairs, thin-rimmed wine glasses. Truly fantastic service with enough personal touch and enough “alone time”. Had oysters that was perfectly set on ice, mussels in a creamy curry sauce. Homemade cocktails also a win! With a colorful and exciting menu I will be back to explore!

5.09.2024 I visited the restaurant with my family. At the beginning, the table was set for us but only for me and my husband, my son did not get anything… Only when we ordered food for my son with great reluctance was the table set for him.
We got fish which was cold but good in taste, while my son did not get anything, he was served to the table after our food was almost eaten… I had the impression that they did not want to serve us because we were with children, the staff laughed at us from the restaurant.
I assume that this place was a family place because inside there was a table for feeding the child and changing table in the toilet.  Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this place because the service and atmosphere were not pleasant. I had the impression that we were constantly watched. We wanted to spend our last day in La Rochelle in a nice family atmosphere, but it was not.
If the service had been polite, nice, we would probably have left a big tip and ordered more things..
the restaurant should have more respect for its customers, no matter if they come with or without children.
