ProfileAlthough the word “Gargote” means “cheap restaurant” or “diner” in French slang, this bistro actually offers fairly upscale versions of classic French dishes (with some North African influences). The restaurant’s dining room, decorated in a classic yet stylish way and the quaint surroundings of the Old Port make for a romantic atmosphere. In the warm months (April through September), an outdoor terrace is open.
