Usual relaxed atmosphere with friendly welcome and service. Menu broad enough to offer choice with good value. Consistent feeling of exiting having thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

'Mon Plaisir' Is the most delightful family run French Restaurant, everything on the menu is brilliant, the daily menu is great value. My dining companion is disabled, they could not have been more accommodating and helpful ditto also with young families with push chairs and prams. The ex-pat French dine here, what more can be said!

Excellent food, service and ambience. It was so French that we had some difficulty understanding the waiter - it was just like being in Paris. Altogether a lovely evening out.

Excellent as always. Mon Plaisair really is good eating experience: not a short-term "Hipster joint" with too many exotic ingredients and tiny portions. My companion & I could have a conversations with out shouting to be heard. Lovely food, good service and helpful staff, without being over attentive.
