Gard O Vin

Reviewed By AlanJackieSavage

Already recommended on Trip Advisor, they have a great selection of wines, good location in the best square in town, excellent service and chacuterie and cheese platters on offer for those who want more than a drink. Loved the wooden tables and umbrellas outside. Must go location for visitors to Nimes

Our experience was simply perfect. The dishes were imaginative, beautiful and most importantly absolutely delicious. We had the 8 courses with four glasses or wine and started with an aperitif. Cecile was our main server and was friendly, knowledgeable and very service minded. We wanted for naught. You can see fromPhotos 8 courses quickly become 10-11. Excellent wine selections. Adored the pinotnoir served with the guinea fowl. Perfect choice. The beginning two whites paired deliciously with first 3 courses. The final dessert wine had the perfect amount of sweetness for the cheese and pre-dessert and dessert. They managed my gluten allergy with great thoughtful. Including crispy French bread. How??? They altered each course as needed. Thank you for a great evening.

When the food arrived; it was excellent quality. However, we waited 45 minutes for our main with no explanation of delay. Waiter only explained why the delay because we asked. People on tables near to us were waiting over an hour. Pleasant restaurant, staff.

Le Restaurant Gastronomique de Jerome Nutile

Reviewed By Itsheresomewhere

The cheese room has 78 different cheeses and you are whisked off mid meal to make your choice. Decisions, decisions. Nimes is a lucky place having 3 great Michelin starred restaurants and Jerome Nutile does not disappoint. It has beautiful gardens with the tables set far from each other (which can be a little isolating). The highlights of the meal here were the veal, cheese and desert. At Skab the highlights were the fish, bread and wine list. So, if you can only manage one restaurant this may help. Personally, I’d save up and go to both

Le Menestrel

Reviewed By GOG69

We were delighted with our experience at Le Menestrel, we managed to communicate with the owner as our French was basically Thank you yes and no and goodbye lol!We were treated to a comfortable table with a good view of other guest entering, some of which seemed local and on good terms with our host. She suggested a starter which we later found out was so new we were the 'guinea pigs' but it was superb. My main meal was fish which was with butternut and was absolutely delish! Well worth a visit but I advise you to book!

Bistrot Le Republique

Reviewed By JRMJ

We really enjoyed lunch at the Bistrot le Republique. The welcome was exceptionally friendly and the food great. The langoustines stood out but everything was decent including a very nice local red. And at under 50 euros for two people, three courses, wine and coffee, what can you say? While it very French (pretty much all the clientele were local) the waitress was happy to translate. And there was no sense that as a tourist you were any less welcome than the locals. The place was full by 1230 so get their early and enjoy!

Le QUESTEL

Reviewed By Monty028

Interesting evening menu with choice of large sharing dish and/or “tapas” type dishes. We chose a selection of six of the tapas dishes, which was enough for the three of us. Beef tartare, Cous Cous dish and hot dish of the day (combination of chicken, new potatoes and carrots in rich sauce) were particularly good. (Chips also very good). Also loved the frogs legs in garlic and parsley butter - not had them before and my wife and I enjoyed them but couldn’t get my 13 year old daughter to try them (GROSS Dad!!)- even she enjoyed the butter though! Service was friendly and efficient and they allowed us to speak our imperfect French even though we heard them all speaking English to other customers, which is a plus for us.Reasonable bill at Euro 85 including drinks. Overall a very good experience and something a bit different in this great city with so many good restaurants.We would like to thanks you for the interest you had for us.sharing our passion is always a pleasure especially with that kind of feed backthanks again and be sure that we'll be glad to welcome you again.our best regards.Le questel team.

Le Chef Raphael

Reviewed By Marie B

The restaurant is bright with a contemporary décor featuring fine art on the walls. Service is casual but professional and knowledgeable. My partner and I enjoyed the "menu du jour" during lunch time: a delicious spinach pie as appetizer, a smoky spiced pork cutlet with perfectly seasoned potato fries, dipping sauce and side mesclun salad with sunflower/linseed garnish as entree. We shared the dessert: panna cotta with fresh strawberries and a berry coulis. All ingredients were fresh and combined with creativity. Highly recommended!
