The best restaurants serving French food in Newport South Wales

We went for a meal with friends who had eaten here several times previously and rated it highly. The menu is quite small and no vegetarian options shown, although when asked there were two options available, veggie curry and cauliflower steak unfortunately neither of which appealed to me personally. I opted for the potato skins starter as a mains instead which was quite tasty but nothing I could wholeheartedly recommend. My meat eating companions chose off the chalkboard menu but were all left feeling slightly underwhelmed, cassoulet, gammon and chicken, none of which they raved about, in fact they were disappointed too as it wasn’t up to previous standards. The concept behind the pub was apparently to recapture the original Victorian feel but it just looked as if it badly needed updating. Staff were very helpful and friendly but without great food I couldn’t rate it any higher.

Amazing little restaurant in Caerphilly. They didn't have any vegan sandwiches on the menu but the owner made us a vegan tuna sandwich with cheese and salad... Really nice and tasty. Looks like it might be part of the next menu :) We also had the vegan mushroom pate. The food is really good and the staff extremely friendly and accommodating We will definitely come back to try the other vegan options Went back for supper last evening. If someone told me that I would eat an amazing onion soup and and vegan cassoulet in Wales, I would have be laughing. And I'm very happy to be so wrong. I had last evening the best onion soup I had for a long time and an absolute amazing Vegan cassoulet. Soooo good. Thank you so much for this experience See you soon.

We booked in advance for a late Sunday lunch, we arrived at 2pm but had to spend 10 minutes in the car park waiting for someone to leave as there are not enough spaces for the number of guests they can accommodate apparently. Got in and sat down at 2:15. It was very busy, but from what we could see most people were either already eating or had eaten and were waiting for their tables to be cleared. The waitress came quickly to get a drinks order however the food order wasn't taken for another 15 minutes and the food itself didn't arrive for another hour. When it did arrive the food was very good, however I was disappointed to only have two very small slices of beef. I heard someone on the table next to me complain about the portion size too. It didn't get them anywhere so I didn't bother to mention it. We decided to have desserts which again were very nice, and thankfully didn't take quite as long as the mains did! So all in all, although the food was nice, service was very slow. We booked later thinking we would be served and back home quicker, however by the time we left we'd been there over 3 hours, so this isn't the place for a quick bite to eat!

Fantastic dinner for two at The Grill. Perfectly cooked half roast chicken and cod. Nice and hot, fresh and great service from Raz.
