Dine under a medieval vaulted ceiling or in a shaded courtyard at Cellier Morel, arguably the finest restaurant in Montpellier's historic center. Regional specialties are served in haute-cuisine fashion starting with an amuse-bouche and ending with a house-made douceur (sweet).
Expect to eat well at this pub-restaurant hidden on a backstreet near Place de la Comèdie. The restaurant side is a fashionable steak house á la francaise, where cuts of duck and beef are grilled over a wood fire and artfully served. It's owned by Montpellier rugby star François Trinh-Duc, and smartly dressed locals gather on the pub side to watch matches and socialize into the night.
This eatery is a popular choice, especially when sunny weather encourages taking a seat on the terrace, overlooking the square below. The cuisine varies with the seasons, the markets, and the humor of the chef, but everything is homemade and reasonably priced.
For a great taste of Provence right in the heart of Montpellier, this is the place to go. The decor is nothing to write home about—spartan Provençal feel, even with the odd splash of a painting on the wall—but the cuisine proves a very satisfying gastronomic surprise. You come to L'Olivier for the good food. The filet de sole aux homard et morilles (sole and lobster in a wild mushroom sauce) and the slow-cooked Costières du Gard pigeon aux cepes (regional pigeon in a wild mushroom sauce) might not equal the three-star extravaganzas served up at Le Jardin des Sens, but they are well worth the price.
Since 1885 this eatery—the oldest in the city, known historically as Casimir—has been feeding locals fine Mediterranean fare such as bull stew and fish of the day à la plancha (grilled with olive oil, garlic, and herbs) at great prices. You might have to endure the crowds and a sometimes irascible owner, but when the copious traditional plates hit the table you'll quickly forget the wait.
Montpellier's vino scene has been on the upswing ever since Languedoc's vineyards and vintages made it onto the world wine map—thereby insuring the success of wine bars like Little Red Café. A middle-aged crowd tends to gather here for live music, well-prepared tapas, and, of course, great wine.
