Villa Coco - Saint-Georges-d'Oléron

We had an outstanding lunch here on spec. A real find. Excellent flavours presentation and service and great value. Great beach close by as well. Worth the trip.

If you want a little something different in Oleron then Villa Coco is the place to be. They serve a great D-I-Y bœuf tartare but for me the bœuf or poisson (tuna) Thai is amazing. Delicious Thai flavours of coriander, lemongrass and ginger make this dish to die for. The service is phenomenal, an amazing team of super friendly, super efficient girls led by the incredible owner, Shirley and an awesome bartender mixing the best mojitos on the island. The ambience is chilled at first and if you want to party the DJ hits all the beats after dark. I just love this place and could eat and play here all day, everyday.

We went twice with our three children (20, 18 and 15). Everyone was pleased and had a good time. Alexi served our table. My daughter enjoyed the cocktails, my son took a beer and my husband and I chose a Côte de Provence. All dishes were delicious and well executed. Great ambiance, restaurant was full on both nights.

Tapas Tartare de Boeuf Thai! All super nice and super fresh. Well done! Very good service. Will be back.

We had tasty food (fishcurry and noodles with shrimps and chicken). We ordered only a plate of french fries for young our kids and asked if they could bring that to our table as soon as it was ready (assuming fries don't take much time to prepare). We had to wait for the fries over 5 minutes after our own dishes were on the table. With two hungry kids, that ain't fun... It took forever to get the cheque, again not funny...
