Brochettes & Cie - Saint-Quentin

I'm not sure that this place sells itself very well on its website. From the you might expect a Greek/Turkish restaurant (there are quite a few of these in St Quentin).In fact this is an ultra modern restaurant that has been fitted out at vast expense. This, in itself, is quite unusual in this part of town (the area around the town square, at the top of the hill, is the attractive part of town where shops, bars and restaurants are thriving - here at the bottom of the hill things are different).It is not a kebab restaurant, but steaks are cooked and served on skewers. My bavette (in England this cut is "skirt") was very good quality meat, cooked very well.Part of a chain that has obviously taken a risk investing this much money in this part of St Quentin. A risk that seems to be paying off. Although the restaurant was quiet when we went (off season and early in the evening) it is obviously very popular and receiving excellent reviews.

We had the Chicken Brochette and it was great. Speaking little French the waiters were very patient with us and when the food arrived we were blown away with the taste the presentation and the whole experience. It was very busy with a mix of families and couples. The service was very attentive and quick for a Saturday night. Would go there again.

Lovely food in a bar style restaurant. It was very busy on a Saturday night and therefore seating and service was a little slow. Food was delicious and value for money. 10% discount from the hotel we were staying in.

Well cooked supper, good service,English spoken, warm and friendly. Not expensive, just round the corner from excellent budget Ibis

Welcome was friendly- sadly my chicken was almost raw. They stayed open late for our friends though- and after a bottle or two more of wine we got over it! Basically the only place to eat here.
