As always, 5 stars. There was a moment a couple of years ago when the service rolled back to 4x, but everything returned to its place. Perhaps this is the best place in Brest with its atmosphere and excellent service. But the main thing is the kitchen, fish is something.

I really liked the place! Very much so. Delicious food was served in beautiful atmospheric interiors, fast and courteous service that was not intrusive. Externally, the restaurant is not remarkable, if it were not for the recommendation of a friend, they would have passed by, but on a tip they enjoyed it
In general, I liked everything. The food is very decent, the money is worth it, the staff is polite, but I was a little short of 5 stars of service speed. And the seating could be updated, there are worn sofas, but the place is still with a claim to luxury.
Great food, gorgeous interior. The staff who really knows the menu down to the last comma and increases the guest's check very correctly. I give you an unequivocal like, next time I'll come back with a Michelin star :))
The atmosphere is not bad - friendly staff- they cook quickly.
But as a restaurant there are not many dishes for a restaurant,
But they cook delicious - that's all, and the prices are adequate
It's beautiful inside, of course.
But the waiter who twists his face and looks at you like a half-wit when you ask about the wine from the gastrofest spoils the impression. And he tells the women at the next table tales about nectarine fields in the taste of their restaurant's wine.
Wine, by the way, is the bottom. Like mulled wine, it should be sweeter. And not to be bittersweet.
3 points only for the setting.
The waiter is incompetent.
I will immediately note, for the 5-plus teramissa, beef corpacho, you can say straight from the freezer, even the ice crunched on my teeth, mussels declared, both with herbs and in wine, in the end just boiled and tasteless, beef cheeks for 4 minutes, but the side dish is simply disgusting, it's better to just serve mashed potatoes, no need to invent the bike, the duck was promised to be like in Beijing, in the end it was just stewed and not tasty, maybe of course we were unlucky that day with the mood of the cook😏
We ordered veal steaks, the cost does not match the quality at all. Tough and tasteless meat. The interior and music are excellent, only for this I raise to 2 stars
The service is terrible. Starting with the wardrobe, ending with the waiters. Maybe there is another face mask for local regular guests, but we, the guests of the city, received nothing but a sour face. If the waiter girl is in a bad mood / has a personal tragedy / or another reason (our fervent greetings to the waitress Raisa) - you do not need to go to work with such a person and it is better to ask someone to replace her. The table was practically not monitored: fresh appliances were not brought, dishes were served chaotically, the waiter did not care what was happening at the table. No one greeted us at the entrance (although I didn't break off and greeted them first), as well as they didn't bother to say goodbye at the exit. Although the child of friends (of course, a spoiled 6-year-old girl) even stopped and turned to the waiters and said goodbye. Yes, this is not the capital; yes, this is not a rated restaurant (although it has a dubious rating of 4.9 in Yandex); and yes, we can all understand (wrong day, wrong mood, wrong guests), but good service and friendly staff in the restaurant business are its basic principles - the client pays mainly for this (the cost of the initial product is not as high as the guests may think, he is associated with this business).
Meal. If for the chef Marseille soup and udon is what he allows the guests to take out - such a cook needs to be changed. If the cook has not seen in his eyes what kind of "pasta" they put in udon, it's a pity for him. There is no need to give out "variations on the theme", just replace the dish in the menu. There is no point in talking about the sauce in this dish - do not even take this liquid in your mouth. We returned two of our udons, but the cook didn't even bother to come out and ask what was wrong with the dish. If you are not ashamed of your dish, you will go out and ask the guests. But we did not see the cook, from which we can conclude about his personal attitude to the "brew" that was served on the table.
With my review, I just want to dissuade guests familiar with (I will bring Minsk restaurants): grand cafe, cafe de Paris, restaurant of the president hotel and other similar restaurants - do not go here. Be patient and have lunch /dinner in a normal place where you will be greeted with a smile and delicious food. We didn't have lunch.
Date of visit: 07/12/2022.
P.S. There are smells in the toilet, instead of a towel dispenser there is some kind of hook hanging.
And yes, there were tablecloths, they were white and clean. There are no comments on tablecloths.
A good restaurant. The kitchen is excellent. 4-point service, at the level of a restaurant for the middle class (for example, if you ask for lemonade without ice at room temperature, they can bring it with ice, then just take out the ice instead of completely replacing it).
A good restaurant. Very courteous waiters. Delicious dishes, and the brandy tincture is beyond praise. The check is slightly higher than in other establishments in Brest, but it's worth it.
The excellent reviews we read led us to the Jules Verne restaurant.
The meeting, the interior and the menu are all for five!
But the Mutton... disappointed. And the Noodles with seafood... upset me.
We were only at a business lunch. The portions are small, everything is edible, but we expected more. The cost is acceptable. The hall on the ground floor was too cold from the air conditioner. The terrace is comfortable in the heat.
A cozy place, pleasant and helpful staff. With a full landing, it took a long time to wait for the order. The risotto turned out to be not very good, the pancakes were over-dried.
Not bad, but very slow and inconsiderate service. I asked for wine for a hot dish, the dish cooled down for 20 minutes, twice I had to remind the waiters that I was waiting for wine.
Immediately comments on the kitchen: borscht is "empty", one broth. Mushroom soup in bread - bread is so overcooked that it was scary to bite it off, especially to eat (even the lid).
Pancakes with caviar are overheated, red caviar on them is a laugh!
One hot dish (small pasta with meat) It was great.
On cleanliness and preparation of waiters 5.
A very pleasant place: we came by chance, because we were looking for a place for dinner. Inside-calm, clean, pleasant atmosphere. I really liked the pasta with salmon, salad.
Draniki for 10 points! And in general, the kitchen left a very pleasant impression! The price tag is not critical! Service for 5 points

The overall impression of visiting the restaurant in one word is "Yeah."
Pros: pleasant interior, music and the presence of other places in the city where you can go instead.
Other features:
— Small midges fly over the dishes. Where they come from in a restaurant with closed windows, even in autumn, let it remain a mysterious highlight of the institution.
— There are not particularly harmonious combinations of products in the dishes, some have either questionable or completely ordinary taste. I am at a loss on the basis of what prices are generally set above the average in the city.
— The fish is crumbly and dry enough that it doesn't even stick on the fork.
— The waiters are polite, but absolutely unfriendly, at the next table there was almost a conflict. Those guests were clearly unhappy, and nothing was done about it. Sadly.
— The only one who was friendly and smiling was the girl at the entrance, who took the outerwear. To be honest, it would have been better if I had left a tip for her than for all those waiters who came up to me as dry as the fish served to me.
— Some completely stupid bathroom. A flabby door with a jamming lock, a lime-covered whitish faucet. There are not even banal napkins and hygiene items, as is usually the case in establishments with similar positioning.
In general, if you change the position of the institution from a restaurant to an expensive, pretty dining room, then the rating could be safely changed from three stars to as many as four.
