Le Quai

Run well with excellent food
Beautiful location and top notch menu. No competition in Amiens
In a town with few gourmet options, this restaurant tops the list with a sophisticated management able to smoothly run the most popular place in town. The second scoring place runs a poor second.

Le Quai was picture perfect.

Sitting out in the front of the restaurant by the water on a spring day with a bottle of wine and having lunch here... is like heaven.

Out in this short street Le Quai is the upscale restaurant of it's neighbors.
Without being pretentious it just attacks the YUPPIES from the area. Lots of locals show up here daily for the awesome food. The menu is perfect... with a little something for everyone.
We had fish, salads, fried calamari, pate and great bread. It was all perfect.

Do try this restaurant if you have the chance.
Service was friendly and attentive.

We enjoyed the restaurant so much, we visited it 3 times throughout our stay in Amiens. We loved almost everything we tried! They have some really delicious drinks. I recommend the grapefruit and passion fruit cocktails. The other favorites are the Original "potjevleesch"meat terrine, "ficelle picarde", meat tartar, the cod and the Special Quai Hamburger (homemade bun with delicious fresh meat! Yum!) I have never visited the same restaurant so many times in one vacation. It is a tasty exception!

I wasn't as impressed with the duck appetizer, but I have a suspicion it has something to do with me not liking duck!

Quick pleasant note, the restaurant has menus in English which is quite helpful!

This is a great place to hangout and eat. The service is fast and they have an english menu (tourist friendly) Try out their steaks and desserts...

Was in Amiens for one night as a stop between visiting Waterloo and Chartres. I happened upon this restaurant purely by chance. It is in an area where there are lots of restaurant with picturesque views of the cathedral on the other side of the river. This waterfront restaurant had a pretty purple neon sign that caught our attention. Our party of three ordered the mussels to share as an appetizer. I also ordered the sea bass as a main course. Both the mussels and the sea bass were excellent. Between the three of us there were ample mussels in the pot to share. It was probably after 10 pm on a Thursday evening and all of the restaurants in this area were busy. The food was good and the service was great. We did not leave until close to midnight. A great end to a wonderful day on vacation.

Cute spot on the canal. The food was quite palatable but I have to say that the fucks that were given by the server were few and far between. (To be fair, it was a busy Thursday night in Amiens.) As my 3rd grade French teacher regularly wrote on my grammar homework - "Quel dommage." Meh.

Mediocre food and restaurant design. "Special" hamburger (a real mess of flavors) and sea bass (salty as to remind you of Icelandic salted cod) were both left unfinished. Oysters were fresh and good. Service was good and English accommodating. Take a chance on something else.

The location by the canal is ideal for summer evening conversations. The meal was delicious. Come by when mussels are in season.
