Le Bistro Urbain

Visited Le Bistro Urbain for a birthday lunch, we both chose the menu Echo. All courses were beautifully presented and tasted delicious. Professional friendly service and an accessible wine list, would highly recommend.

We dined at Bistro Urbain with out of town friends and we were all very inpressed. I always appreciate a prix fixe menu as the smaller number of dishes allows the kitchen to focus and that was evident here in the presentation and depth of flavors in all the offerings. A first course crayfish with basil and a garden vegetable tartlet with a wasabi jelly were both excellent as were the main course duck with eggplant and mackarel. Desserts were a spot-on Rum Baba and and an apricot dessert with a granola-like crust and Chai Tea ice cream. Wine list is good and fairly priced and their wines are all stored in a two-door Euro-Cave which shows the attention to detail this restaurant takes with everything. Wine pairings were available with each course but we ordered a nice bottle of rosé (of course!) Service was friendly, knowledgable, and efficient.

Superb food that plays seriously with seasonal ingredients to create imaginative and exciting taste combinations. It looks gorgeous too. A 2 choice per course set menu, it was one of the best meals we have eaten in a long while. The excellent, affordable wine recommendation worked well with both octopus and lamb. Vibe was relaxed and unstuffy and the service was charming and helpful. We were the last to leave the restaurant and it will be first on our list when we next return to Montpellier.

One of my favorite spots in Montpellier.. The food is incredible, but what really stands out is the combination of tastes everything is so well-balanced and creative without being over-the-top. The service was super friendly and attentive. For the level of cooking you get, it’s easily the best price-quality ratio in the city center... Highly recommended!

A nice fine dining experience in Montpellier. The starter was very fresh and light. A good introduction for a meal. The main was a bit more classic but I liked the sourness of the yogurt to balance the meal The dessert was excellent, tasty and creative. A lot was happening in my mouth, in a good way ^^ My only complain is that we had to wait 40 min after finishing the starter and receiving the main. The rest of the service was efficient and the staff kindly apologise for it.

I had the lunch menu (starter, main and desert) for €28, which was a decent price for the quality offered. The starter was a chicken croquette and a corn cream. The main was a fish (cooked to the perfect point) with different types of potato sitting in a fish soup (delicious!). The desert was creative, I was a bit uncertain before I put it in my mouth! It was a sweet rice with pistache and mandarin. Nice presentation, welcoming staff.

We loved our dinner here, especially the waiter who was lovely and made the evening special.

After a recommendation of our hotel receptionist, my girlfriend and I had a delicious dinner here on our last night in Montpellier. A great menu with interesting flavors and textures, and wines to go along with it! The prices were very fair too 👌 I'd add photos of every dish but my phone doesn't do them justice. Best to go and see them for yourself 😌 The host of the restaurant was delightful and made sure everything went smooth. Definitely recommend eating here, would go back myself!
