What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
L'Amirauté Chez Rita is praised for its classic brasserie style, friendly service, and fair pricing, with many highlighting generous portions of dishes like fish soup and mussels. While most experiences are positive, some diners have noted slow service, particularly during busy periods. The quality of certain dishes, like the salmon poke bowl, has also received criticism, with a recommendation to stick to pizzas or more traditional offerings.
"Excellent lunch of Fish soup, really good, and Tartar of Veal, excellent. The fish soup was enough for 2 people. The service was slow, due to a shortage of staff on holidays. However it was Sunday lunch and the 2 waiters were pleasant and did a very good job considering the place was nearly full. I passed a very relaxing and enjoyable time and the food made up for any delay in the service."

"We had dinner here without a reservation on a busy night and they made space for us. There was a live musical performance which was nice. The food was great. The staff were going fast and working hard. Really enjoyed ourselves."
Jason
"The pizzas look good but I chose the salmon poke bowl and all I can say is that it was less than mediocre. The rice was not sushi rice and wasn’t even cooked properly (still a little bit hard). The sauce used was extremely sweet and overall just covered the tastes of the food. It was supposed to be served with mango and was served with pineapple. There is very little salmon and rice. Overall everything was damp from the sauce and the rice was closer to paste than rice because of either the sauce or water. All in all this would’ve passed better as a very sweet rice salad rather than a poke bowl. 1/5 would not recommend, take the pizza."
