Le Faré - Noumea

We didn't want to stay in Noumea this Thursday, but after a snorkel around the Anse Vata beach we stopped eating at Le Faré for something. The staff was so friendly, with constant smiles on their faces. They were efficient and our food came in a few minutes order! It was a relaxing and comfortable seating with a great view of the beach. And the food was delicious!

Brilliant place to relax - with kite surfing lazy circles in the lagoon near entertaining with tricks and pussies of the prowes, a glass of wine while the sun goes down is a must to experience! There are of course 3 sweet little habitable cats that also steal your heart. Eating proportions are generous as hospitality. Two thumbs up!

The location is practically on the beach, and the service is fantastic. They used to have the best fish burger we've ever had, but we recently went back to find the fish burger, is now a jagged fish patty instead of the beautiful piece of fish they had earlier (you can have the difference in the photo we made 2016 vs 2017). However, the location is still beautiful, but unfortunately the burger is no longer special.

Despite some of the reviews we decided to try the Le Fare, and we were not disappointed. The view is lovely and if staying at Le Meridien it is so convenient. The prices are similar to other nearby restaurants. Steak and octopus salad we thought were lovely. A week earlier we had a steak at a Melbourne restaurant and we thought this was cheaper and tastier.

Reasonably priced, the food is not bad at all, but nothing super impressive either. Staff that served us spoke English and was nice enough. Great location that is usually busy (but service is good and there’s heaps of tables both outside and inside) with both locals and tourists.
