Fodor's Expert Review Le Girelier

$$$$ St-Tropez Seafood

Fish, fish, and more fish—sea bass, salmon, sole, sardines, monkfish, lobster, and crayfish all fill the boats that pull into the Old Port and find their way onto the menu here. Although grilled seafood (with a little thyme and perhaps a whisper of olive oil and garlic) is the order of the day, this is also a stronghold for bouillabaisse. The clientele is buffed and bronzed, but the servers tend to treat everyone like tourists. The lunch plat du jour (€21) is a bargain in this town; otherwise, mind the check: you'll be surprised just how expensive fish per 100g can be.
