We are always looking for good restaurants to go and enjoy good food with our friends. We had been recommended to go to Le Clos des Souquets in Fabrezan. We had not reserved a table, but that was not a problem. The owner received us very friendly and we felt very welcome to the place.

They have several menus from 19,50 to 35 Euros and we settled for the 27 Euro menu. The restaurant have  lot of fish dishes which is a bit unusual in the area. We all ordered a salad gourmand for starter which was absolutely delicious. The only problem was that my wife got a very sharp piece of plastic the seize of a coin in her salad. If she had swallowed it we would have had to go to the doctors. When we pointed it out to the waitress, she just said - oh!

We had to wait very long for our main course, but I think that was because we came in quite late and they were busy in the kitchen with all the deserts.

For main dish one of us had gambas, one of us had file of dourade and I had a whole grilled loup. When I got the fish the patron started to teach me how to eat it. I have understood from before that fish with bone is something the French have a problem with - they eat it like it was a steak - just cutting it into pieces.

My fish was very good, but one of the pieces of dourade our guest had was raw so she could only eat half her portion. When we told the waiter he started to argue that it was better to have the fish raw than overcooked and that the Japanese eat raw fish all the time. We were also a bit disapointed that they seem to have the same things that comes with most of the dishes. A restaurant that have the ambition to be good should custmise their dishes a little more. The competition in the area is very tought so standard solutions does not give many points.

These two incidents turned a very good first impression into some irritation. On the other hand - things can happened but the important thing is how they deal with it so we were anxious to see if they were going to compensate us in any way. They did not even said they were sorry for all the mistakes they had done, which I think is very unprofessional.

We will not return to this restaurant and we can not recommend it to anyone.
