We were looking for a place for a light, not too expensive lunch. La Voile provided us just that. We were welcomed into the restaurant by the Maitre de who apologised for not having tables but we could sit at the bar which surrounded the restaurant. As it turned out he gave us the best seats n the house, well, outside actually. We had sweeping views across the port and out to sea across the Mediterranean. Absolutely the BEST! And the food, the choice was excellent, the quality was fantastic, fresh and very enjoyable, washed down with a Rose. What more could be said. Go, try it.

Loved the food and ambience of this place. There was a buzz and the food was great. Wine lovely too. Best croqettas I have had outside Spain!

Down a quiet backwater in a busy resort, as far as I could tell, there is only outside seating. The tapas are good but not exceptional - the sort of fare you would find in a Spanish provincial port. The Lomo Iberique is recommended and also the Boquerones. Service is genuinely friendly so this is the place for a light meal or snack. Lunch for 2 with average wine was €32.

Chef Frédéric Bacquié, invites you to enjoy a fine cuisine made with fresh local seasonal products.The terrace overlooking the bay and the Restaurant refurbished in 2014 offers you an amazing view on Collioure and the Church
Stunning resto connected to a stunning hotel in a stunning location. That's okay then!Staff deserve a special mention. Superbly attentive & skilled. Never intrusive or overbearing. As good as you'll find anywhere.The food: This is the 2nd time we've had dinner here. Did the taster menu 1st time. This time we ate what we chose. And the choice didn't satisfy. Meagre menu with few options. Nouvelle cuisine style. The best thing, in my opinion, was one of the amuse bouche. Foie gras mousse with cherry - delivered not ordered. 4 entrees & 4 plats wouldn't be too difficult. Would it? Currently just 2 of each. Which is far too limiting for a gaff of this standard.The massive wine list & prices seem to suggest one has a rather nice gin palace at anchor in the bay. This is not Monaco.Still a fabulous experience yet it could be better. It's a restaurant. So getting the food right is the most important thing.

We had the €13.50 lunch here which was fine. The food was enjoyable and the service was ok. I agree with other contributors about the wine situation. A restaurant like this, in probably the biggest wine-producing area of France, should be able to offer wine in pichets. The view over the harbour is nice.

This restaurant located on the Quai Francois Joly in Port-Vendres, has a mellow vibe where people share their experiences, during balmy evenings, with a beautiful view of the port in the background. The welcome is very pleasant, with the laconic personae of the seafarers who attend to the basics with patience and courtesy. We had some great lunches there; the oysters and anchovies were delicious, and red mullets to die for! Hoping to get back there soon.

We had dinner at La Cote Vermeille. The restaurant was full so we were seated on the terrasse which was fine by us. The view is nice but the setting is rather plain as was the wellcome and the service. We didn't feel like eating a menu and so we choose both to have two starters each for dinner. The food was good, fresh and well prepared and so was the housewine. The bill for our modest repas was surprisingly high.Bonjournous venons de prendre connaissance de votre commentaire c'est fabuleux!!!!!les prix de nos entrées sur la terrasse sont entre 14€ et 18€ , pour des produits frais et de qualités élaborés sur place ......et jusqu’à présent et cela depuis 10 ans et oui monsieur!!!! aucune remarque sur notre politique de prix........Apres pour le cadre je laisse juge , vous aurez peu être voulu prendre votre dîner sur une terrasse au bord d'une route nationale.....CDT

Small, nicely decorated place on a pedestrianised elevated strip with terrific views over the bay and port. Shown to an inside table by pleasant and efficient staff. The ma and pa owners were clucking over the staff and the kitchens. Very limited chalk board menu gave us great expectations over the eight page tourist fodder. We both went for the tuna as here we are in a port. Both asked for the fish " a point" - rare. After 15 mins the plates arrived. Oh, dear ! A thin slice of (frozen, I strongly suspect) tuna slathered in an overpowering lime and garlic dressing. My tuna was grossly overcooked. The accompanying vegetable was even worse - a splodge of cold,grey mashed potato with some dark, indeterminate "herb" mixed in. The whole was covered with chopped chives. That was it for €13.50. Very unpleasant.

Good restaurant in Port-Vendres. Great seafood as expected. Friendly service and very good grand chou (bit like a profiterole)

Lovely little restaurant worth seeking out. A small menu with good variation makes choosing easy. Going for the 23Euro menu, we were not disappointed. Fresh local sea food (and non seafood, but I love fish) was aboslutely delicious and beautifully presented. The service was friendly and sitting outside with a harbour view was delightful.
