Chez Éric
On the square of a charming village, this dry-stone building has everything you could wish for, from a shaded terrace to a bistro-style interior. To top it all off, the Provençal fare is full of flavour. For instance, the courgette flower stuffed with Brousse cheese and basil, Mediterranean meagre, rockfish stock with saffron and tarte Tatin with apricots from Provence go down a treat!
TripAdvisor review sample · 3.3/5 · 80 reviews
Chez Éric in Coti-Chiavari offers a scenic seaside setting with a pleasant atmosphere, often praised for its family-friendly environment and warm welcomes. However, reviews are polarized. Food quality is inconsistent; while some diners enjoyed fresh catches and fish soup, others found the cuisine mediocre, limited in selection, or marred by errors like serving sole instead of steak. Service varies significantly, ranging from friendly staff to complaints about an insolent owner and poor pacing. Facilities are described as outdated, with wobbly furniture noted. Value is frequently questioned, with many feeling the cost does not justify the experience compared to neighboring establishments. Despite the beautiful location, the overall dining experience is unreliable, leading some to recommend alternatives for better respect and consistency.
Suitable for visitors prioritizing scenery over consistent service; consider neighboring options for reliable quality.
