Could this be Narbonne’s most famous restaurant! Perhaps it's because Les Grands Buffets is more than a restaurant, it's an experience! An upscale, all-you-can-eat buffet at a unique price featuring an infinite range of traditional French dishes: foie gras, lobster cascade, rotisserie, desserts, even 111 cheeses recently mentioned in the Guinness Book of Records as the "World's largest cheese platter in a restaurant!” All this in an exceptional setting: from the baroque décor of the ceremonial tent to the chic tables in the traditional brasserie and the 18,000 gold leaves in the new Jean de la Fontaine dining room!
The Parisian bistro par excellence! In a retro ambience created by the walls, vintage objects and old posters of the "Fou chantant Charles Trenet", a local on the stage; "Chez Lulu", in the old post office café, it is a den for all the narbonnais, as well as the tourists and artists who pass through Narbonne! The homemade dishes are copious and are inspired by the daily market shopping of Chef Alexandre, aka Lulu, who takes the time to chat with each customer and tell the story of each dish on the slate!
Specialising in seafood, this downtown restaurant only works with fresh local products (you can see the chef and his brigade working behind a window)!

Definitely one of the most picturesque places to eat! In the ancient port of Narbonne, in La Nautique port, this bistro, open most of the year, offers products essentially from the sea in their simplicity: oysters, tapas from the sea and ... their famous fried anchovy bones!

The little extra: A beautiful view of the lagoon and the picturesque village of Bages, with an optional sunset over the water!
Le Portanel is housed in an old fisherman's cottage on the rocky point of the typical village of Bages! This Mecca of gastronomy on the Côte du Midi specialises in seafood, fish and local products! The speciality? Eels! Cooked every possible way and caught in the lagoon just opposite, it is the emblem of the restaurant and of the village since it is the local flagship product! The little extra: A breathtaking view of the lagoon with a 360-degree panoramic view from its "bow window" glass roof.
