"27th April 2013, we were in Lille for husband's birthday and we had booked a restaurant at 37 Rue Royale but it wasn't called La Royale. We arrived by taxi with me saying "this is the wrong place with the wrong name". Anyway, we went inside and got a lovely welcome from the two guys running it. T..."hey had room for us (I'm glad to say) and we had the most lovely typically French dinner. My lamb was superb and my husband had calf's liver which he said was excellent. I so enjoyed the ambiance and food at this super little restaurant and we got chatting to a sweet French family who came there a lot and were so helpful about what we did next day. A find indeed!

"This restaurant was really a very good finding. My wife and I (and our kitty, Negrita) were looking for a nice place to have a meal at Lille's fabulous Vieux Lille neighborhood, when we noticed this charming bistro/restaurant. It had a chic though cozy decoration and a very nice manager who fell in ..."love with our kitty.
Now, the food. Mickaël's cuisine is exquisite. It is well presented and full of flavour. Meats are cooked as asked, and are top quality. My wife had duck magret, and I had the best boeuf tartare in my life. Attention, this is no vulgar ground beef, but actually knife-cut top quality sirloin. The condiment of the beef was incredibly equilibrated. A thorough pleasure.
The dessert was charlotte prepared with mascarpone instead of cream. Indeed, most of the desserts at La Royale consist of a traditional French dessert with one or two innovative, usually salty, ingredients. Simply wonderful!
We noticed that the menu at La Royale changes according to season and freshness of...

"This is a splendid wine bar serving an excellent selection of wine and champagne by the glass and bottle. It's situated on rue gand - a street with lots of bars and eateries frequented by locals.
I went on a Saturday night at around 7:30 and it was already filling up with groups of friends and co..."uples of mixed ages. The best thing about the bar is its concept - simply wine and various snack boards served on slate. Unfortunately I had already eaten as the menu offered around 10 different snack boards (cheeses, duck, pate etc). I say snack boards but they looked more than substantial as a meal (and to soak up the wine!). They proved popular as well and at circa 12 euros good value for money too! The young chef in the corner of the bar was certainly busy making a tantalising montage of colourful boards all night!
Go, you'll love it!
