The best restaurants serving French food in South Wales

Incredible experience this is the second time we have been and absolutely loved it. Specifically giving it a 5 star review for one of the best croque Monsieur I have ever had and I love sandwiches. It came as to almost croissant style buns stuffed with Parma and melty cheese with a nice understated flavour of mustard cutting through. Absolutely brilliant and if you got a portion of chips I imagine a couple could share for a light lunch. Brilliant!

Nice place with delicious food but I like the old one in Cardiff bay more due to the location. But it's worthwhile getting food in this restaurant.

Beautiful Welsh food, great service, and a thoroughly Welsh atmosphere! Absolutely loved it 🤌

Last Saturday night I held a retirement celebration at Gallinis for 46 family and friends - it was faultless from start to finish. I originally looked at 3 venues in Swansea Marina and Baz at Gallinis was by far the most helpful, the most accommodating, and in the end produced an amazing night for us. They stayed in touch with me in the weeks/month ahead of the event in order to agree the menu, agree the table settings and talk about entertainment etc - nothing was too much trouble for them. On the day of my event May 11th, they let us go to the restaurant in the afternoon around 3.00 pm in order to decorate as we had the entire ground floor booked out. My family and friends arrived at 7.00 pm and Kurt and his team were ready and waiting with the Prosecco we had ordered for arrival drinks. The waitresses worked really hard making sure all of my family and friends were topped up regularly and were kept happy. We then sat down for food. How on earth the kitchen managed to produce 46 two course meals, on time, piping hot, and to such an excellent standard is really beyond me. Everyone was impressed with the standard of food and service which was consistently high throughout the evening. The staff were always on hand for anything we needed, and the service at the bar was quick and efficient. The whole experience was faultless and exceeded my, very high, expectations. Add to this a stunning setting on Swansea Marina.......perfect. Thank You to to Baz, Kurt and all of the staff at Gallinis who worked so so hard for us - and especially the hardworking waitress who joined in our singing :-) If you are thinking of having an event here just do it, if you just want somewhere special for lunch or dinner - go here. Its fab.

Absolutely beautiful food this evening! All the meals were cooked to perfection! We sat in and the atmosphere was lovely! Thank you very much!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Despite being unable to book in advance, the Sticky Fingers website states plenty of walk in tables are available. We did get a table but were unable to order the food we wanted as it was pre-order with a table booking only! No where on the Sticky Fingers website did it actually state this. The manager was very rude and he tried to pass the buck to the vendor which was a bit sad really! Poorly organised with staff who had no clue.

This place needs closing down. It's disgusting rubbish with flies and maggots in the salad. And to be fair I think the cook is a fob.fresh off the boat in Kent. Avoid this place if you respect yourself and the United Kingdom.

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

Sensational! Very happy with the service received from Sophie. She went above and beyond! The food was cooked to perfection. Credit to the Chef. All the best

Found this place by chance while waiting for my daughter to finish a school interview - loved it!! Great service, super friendly, avocado toast was delicious and beautifully presented, different to any I’d had before. Good coffee and great music too!

We arrived for breakfast with our 6 month old baby, where the waiter approached us and said that people were leaving shortly and we could be seated in the next few minutes. We then stood by the bar waiting for a seat, (there were no spaces left even by the bar to sit and wait) when a couple having coffee stood to leave who kindly gave their seats to us. We started getting the highchair ready for the baby and made ourselves comfortable, to which we were approached by a member of staff with blonde hair appearing mid-thirties in age who told us to leave as a couple sat on a breakfast table by the bar (big enough for dining) had been waiting for this seat. It was extremely unnecessary to wait for us to make ourselves comfortable before telling us this, and also not to be shown to alternative bar seating seeing as we were already stood waiting with a baby for 15 minutes. We left feeling extremely unwelcome, and also bumped into the couple who gave their seats for us who were confused why we had to leave the seat. In hindsight it worked out for the best as the inn was very hot, no air con even in the middle of August, also as seen by the food hygiene rating on the door there is definitely room for improvement. We were left with the impression that “if you’re not a regular you won’t receive the same service” again very unwelcoming.
