Lamb arrives, encroute complete with a healthy serve of veges asking with the side.
Flavours were absent.
Will not be back

staff were a bit rude to us. However it was still nice and we did enjoy the meal. The food was origional and the portions were about right

When we walked you we could have been back in the Latin Quarter of Paris, or a one of our favourite restaurants in Bordeaux city – Versailles in Tauranga is certainly authentic French. The décor, music, tables crowded together, red table clothes and the general chatter and noise plus the menu.
The menu has all the usual classical French dishes only most sport New Zealand names and descriptions with an attraction that you can get a light version of each as a main that is great for those on a diet. Amongst the main course menu our party enjoyed the Duck breast & leg with a Cointreau and orange zest sauce, and the Chicken Breast stuffed with spinach and wrapped in ham and served in a steaming oven dish of cheese sauce.
The service was prompt and the whole group of seven were all served together with no mistakes
The typical French formule menus (fixed price 3 course menus with limited selection of entree, mains and desserts) are excellent value and range from $48.50 to $62.50.
The only negatives were that we had to wait about 20 minutes to get our orders taken and the waiter grumped that he was waiting for our party to stop talking before taking the orders. Also I certainly missed the traditional French baguette slices on the table – how is a Frenchman to wipe his plate clean and enjoy all those wonderful sauces?
Finally this is a popular restaurant so you do need to book.

Very very authentic French restaurant with loads of character and good food. Quite expensive but value is there..
Also love the Gold Mela(?)
