Ordered the Mango milkshake, Veg fritters, Chicken lasagna and Chocolate mousse. Great location and a nice outdoorsy ambience. Seafood is a must try out here !
Great location, super nice ambience, friendly service and best food. We were craving some French cuisine, had the Chef's fish with Garlic bread and fries, super good. Cool spot of friends hangout
Le Club has a nice, relaxed atmosphere and more people who visit the restaurant in the afternoon seem to sit there for hours.
For starters, we had the fried calamari and fried Malabar fish. It was delicious.
For starters we had the fish in white sauce, fried rice, chicken in mushroom sauce and the beef steak. All the dishes were quite good but the beef was over done and ended up being quite rubbery.
The restaurant is quite pricey compared to a lot of other places in the locality but I'd recommend it.
We had prawn in Caribbean sauce and chicken in mustard sauce...food was awesome and the staff was courteous..I might want to come back to just have the food in le club...
Thanks again for the great food..!!!
Nothing great.. Just good to get the goa shack vibes.. Calamari wasn't good.. Beer were not the perfect temperature considering its very humidity n hot and people prefer chilled pint.. As usual super expensive cost for 2 beer bottles n one calamari 1k
Loads of food in 1 plate, subtely flavoured mix of French and Indian ingredients. Good ambience and an absolute relaxing place to unwind! Enjoyed it!
Ok let me keep this short and sweet . We went to Le club for the second time because we loved our first experience there .
- Food was great ( must try the sea food pizza, fresh out of the oven).
- Ambience was good, pretty open space and close to the beach as well.
- the crowd was pretty good .
Overall had a good time there .
Located at d far end of the promenade, this place has some really good food to offer and some relaxed family seating to tuck into a lovely dinner. Woodfired pizza, a well stocked bar. Service is good, food and ambience equally measures up. A good meal for 4 without drinks will be around 3-4K.
Lovely place, lovely ambiance, just next the Pondicherry beach, dining arrangements are good , they play light music with a good lighting, a variety of food menu is available.
Ambience- it is good but I have found people mostly of aro@und 45 to 50 age group.. nice music and amazing bar set up with open air seating arrangements..
Service- well ok and better service infact would say a decent service.
Price - a little heavy for you pocket but worth trying it.
Food- well they serve good food.. ordered for Cordon blu and chicken with mushroom sauce.. juicy and tender chicken..
Love their mushroom sauce.
Well had a great experience.
Worth trying this plàce
Next time I crave a steak.. i shall be off to pondicherry...a medium done melt in the mouth steak is what it was ... good service... open air.. better not take kids.. as it's an open bar .. and lots of tobacco smoke around..food is brilliant..a must visit if in pondicherry
Very close to beach this place is definitely one of the best places to checkin for dinner.!
Ambience is too good with bright lights and spacious seating.
Staff are friendly and service is good.!
We had mix of veg and non-veg varieties.
Started with delicious chicken soup followed by pretty tasty golden fried prawns, squid and chicken strips..Tasted mushroom and paneer starters which I would say are pretty decent.!
We had chicken pizza which is decent and chicken in sauce with fries which again didn’t disappoint us.!
Litchi based mocktails are very good.
And to end with we had coffee custard(not caramel) and chocolate ice cream which made our meal complete.!
Highly recommended.!
It was my first dine out restaurant in Pondi and it was a very nice place.
I loved the ambience and the music.
We ordered the steak with pepper sauce and calamari crispy fry.
Both were delicious!
Probably one the fewest places that serves French cuisine. Lasagna was good and the must try is the "Fried Calamari". However alcohol is costly. The ambience is perfect and the service is good and spontaneous.
After 5 years, i visited today. Had roasted pork and steak with blue cheese and squid masala. All tasted great. But I think i remember skewers were available, earlier. It was awesome, But not sure its available now. Forgot to ask also.
Zomata, the menu/prices are old. Attached the new one
Chill place , good music , friendly staff , quick service . I had the garlic butter prawns , the fried calamari and the cheese beignets which came quickly and were yum . Our bacon crepe was average and though we were warned the seafood BBQ would take time , it took way longer than the 20 minutes .
Don't judge the food by its Presentation.
Alcohol is not cheap here , 75 inr beer was for 250 bucks before taxes were added to the bill .
Food and ambience was good. Bit on expensive side but worth the try. We ordered prawns curry, chicken steak with mushroom sauce & basa fish which was chef's recipe. I must say basa fish was yummy and highlight of the evening. Overall great experience.
We had the best time in pondy at this place. The food was delicious. Atmosphere very lively and happening. I think this place is a bit underrated. We ordered a range of dishes consisting of veg lasagnia, grilled pepper chicken, bengali fish curry, sea food fried rice, paneer butter masala and roti. And evey dish was authentic and delicious. There are very few restaurants which give nothing to complain bout. This being one. We had a lot of fun here. A must visit place if u r in pondy. And location is also a plus. It's nearby promenade beach. 🤘🏽
This is a beautiful place in white town. It is beautifully lit with lights in the evening making the place look extremely pretty. Even in the afternoon the place looks nice.
The staff is very attentive and courteous. They have a pretty fast service and the food is amazing too.
It's a must visit in Pondicherry!
After a walk in the beach 🌊,Been here for a drink 🍹 and the location is very near to beach and we have ordered beer and chicken pepper .The chicken pepper was soo tender and the flavour is very good ,you can feel a tender chicken with a ground pepper.
It was a very good experience.
Great place in White Town to grab a couple of chilled beers in the garden of a quaint villa. Grilled Chicken, Chef's Special Pizza, Fried Calamari are all delicious. But a special shout out to the Basa Masala Fry, a definite try for those who enjoy spicy food. Engaging staff coupled with quick service ensures a delightful experience.
Wat cn i say best club in the town. Awesum food. Best calamari ever. Sea food frid rice n malabar fish curry. Was delish. Love the ambiance n food. Happy to bisit again.
Best place to have a quiet lunch or dinner! Food quality and serving were great. Starters were not that good. Can find lots of foreigners here rather than the localities. Price was little costly.
One of the oldest restaurant in puducherry serving the French cuisine....
Went there on a Tuesday afternoon where the place was quiet packed got a table near the bar to start with ordered for beer.
For mains we ordered a pasta and a seafood sizzler.
The food was served nicely and presented well when it comes to taste I think everything was made to perfection wether it be the pasta or the sizzler....
Overall worth the price and great experience
One of the best restaurant I found in Pondicherry.
Ambience is so damn beautiful, also it's peaceful.
Food is super amazing, we had prawn dish, one chicken starters , a 🍺 and a sula 🍷. Everything was so amazing. It was lunch hour still I loved it but I missed to visit the place in evening hours. It would have been more beautiful.
Worth the 💰 spent. 😉
Being at Chennai, Pondicherry is a frequent weekend getaway. But this time, aim was good food hunting.
And justice done to the aim and taste buds.
The authentic pizza making by some good old restaurants. One is Le Club.
I specifically loved the pizza and the veg lasagna. I never tasted an awesome lasagna ever. A must visit if you love a explore some food places in Pondicherry along with some awesome yet low priced hard drinks !!
Ambience is really cool, gives you that relaxing feel yet keeping it interesting.!
Lasagna was good, fried calamari was yum! (But being only non veg couldn't finish it all, such a waste!) if you are a rum lover u need to try banana ae flambé rhum, quite good but pretty strong run flavour.
N oh boy they like to make their cocktails quite strong! 😉😉
It was first time that i tried something new in food that too French food amazing experience .I feel French food was classy like Indian food it doesn't make you to crave for eat more.But trying something new in food gives you an amazing experience. And the dishes names are also unique like Ratatouile which is a traditional dish for French.All over the experience was good.
Best place to visit with friends when travelled to Pondicherry. Great ambience and starters of elegant delicacies and reasonable prices makes you wanna stick over here all the time.
The place is situated in the famous White Town and is a nice place to hang out. They have a variety of dishes to choose from again esp the French onion soup, the fried calamari, and their mind blowing desserts. A must eat place if you are in Pondicherry.
Fried fish 5/5
Beef steak 4.5/5
Grilled fish 4.5/5
Chicken soup 3/5
Chicken fritters 3/5
Chicken steak 3.5/5
Coral reef 4/5
Great ambience, service could have been better.
We went here for a meal . It was a comfortable one. It was a good meal with decent service. We ordered the food and it arrived in time , the staff is polite and are happy to recommend items off the menu. The steaks are nice and generous portions. The chicken 65 was a good recommendation ,spicy and masaledar. The grilled prawns were flavourful too. I won't say it was fabulous but it's was very good. Worth a visit !
Very Goa like vibe to the place. The service was disappointing and so was the food. The prawns and chicken fritters were very oily. One did not want to order after such a heavy starter(s). It felt nice to under a full moon but its a restaurant after all and you cant be dishing out mediocre grub.
Will give this a miss the next time we are there.
Nothing less than a 5. Be ready for a waiting list and spare atleast an hour. Because this place deserves it.
Closes down at 10 pm like most places in pondi. Food, drinks on affordable side but what is breath taking is the ambience and the cool breeze as it's next to the rock beach. Crowd here is amazing and classy. Must visits when you visit pondi !
This restaurant is located next to rock beach and it has a great ambience. The outside table arrangement is amazing. It was a saturday night so we didnt get much choice to select table .I will advice to prior booking. We odered garlic bread with cheese .one of the best garlic breads i ever had. Then we ordered pizza which wasnt that great . Do try desserts over here they are realy mouthwatering specialy chocolate cake.
We ordered Amruth over here and the steaks over here is not preferable for sure. The sea food is good and the rare steak was worst off course.
The best food in Pondi!! Agreed , a little heavy on the pocket but worth every penny !!! Ambience (Interior) is mostly like those of sea side shacks , yet classy with French touch for the exteriors. Loved the overall experience :)
Ambiance - 4
food - 4
service - 4
i am very happy that i visited here for dinner,food was quite good. we had chicken with reduction of wine sauce , ratatouille,Lasagne among them chicken was best followed by Lasagne
over all it is a good place for dinner.
Decent place with a shack vibe. We ordered garlic butter squid, caribbean prawns and shrimp cocktail. The shrimp cocktail was avoidable the butter garlic squid was ordinary but the caribbean prawns were amazing. The bill came out around 1300. Didn't love it but didn't hate it either.
Amazing food, lot of choice. Decor is alright, reminds you of Goa Shacks setup. Good service and comfortable place for family. Decently priced place.
We were staying at Hotel De Pondicherry which is back side of this place. And we truly liked the ambience and food.
Although we actually did not have a full meal at this place but it perceived to be good as it was always buzzing with people.
We ordered Prawn. It was amazing and we all wanted to try other items but we wanted to explore other places so we left.
When the bill arrived we were stumped as it was almost 1500 for the dish+ 1 breezer (inclusive of taxes).
All in all, it surly is place vising but prepared to be shell out for what you order.
Le club is a beautiful bar and restaurant.. cool ambience and very beautifully lit!! Being a Sunday night.. We had to wait for a while to get a table. We ordered for a sesame fried prawns, and a few drinks to start with. Prawns were beautifully cooked, and were served piping hot.. The accompanying dip was good too.. For the food we ordered a chef special fish and a chicken casserole in red wine. Chef special fish had pan seared basa fish, with vegetables and white sauce. Served with rice. The rice over the fish was very nicely flavored. Chicken casserole was good too. Nice chicken, with vegetables cooked with red wine. Had good flavors too and was served with fries. Overall the food was pretty good. To add on the place is quite expensive as compared to most of the restaurants in pondicherry.... So if you want to spend for good food.. This is a place to be...
Recently visited Pondicherry and my first meal was in Le Club. A Wednesday afternoon when me and my friend were dying for food this was the place we were looking for. Well located, at the end of the Rock Beach and the decor is quite chill and turns prettier in the evening. We ordered for French Fries and Spaghetti in Pink sauce, cheese garlic bread with a Mojito. The Mojito was amazing and the food was also delicious. Just what we wanted after a long journey to Pondy. Thanks and would love to visit again. Hopefully this time in the evening as it looked more lively in the evening.
first time ,We are 4 of our friends went yest. ambiance is really superb cool. food s really awesome taste.we specially like the hospitality .surely we will refer to our friends and we too come again...Best restaurant must visit...
Step into a very laid back but warm and cosy restaurant. Their bar is dotted with mega size balcohol bottles that they have been collecting since they started. I had my eyes on all of then and would love to add them to my collection. But sigh, I had to just be happy by their sight on the bar.
We were settled in the family section and our host for evening appeared very quickly to help us out with our orders. It was a Tuesday evening so the place was empty. Good for us as we got prompt service.
Now the most important part of the review - food. Everything we ordered was fabulous. The butter garlic prawns for the kids was very juicy & lip smacking. The beef stake which I was so longing to eat just was very succulent. My friend ordered a veg pasta to be tossed in olive oil and veggies (out of the menu) and the chef made it just the way she would have liked it. It's like he read her mind from the kitchen. The best dish on the table was the veg lasagne. It just melted in our mouth. It was full of cheese but don't feel cheesey at all as what we have experienced in many places.
The let down I would say was desserts. The cheese case was too dense, dry and pasty and the creame brulae was just about average. But stulk all the food got polished off in a jiffy and we left high and happy.
I would recommend this restaurant for its great food and prompt service.. do check it out when you are next in pondi. . Cheers !!!
PS: the food was so yum that I forgot to take pictures. Next time for sure there would be pictures to support the review ;)
The place is a special one for me - first love :)
So I stayed at Dumas Guest House and Le club is just next to it. Because i was tired and didnt want to go elsewhere for dinner the day I landed in Pondi, I went here. The first thing, the guard at the entrance was so welcoming. The place itself has relaxed vibes. Notjing very fancy but a relaxed open space. I took a seat outside. The music is pleasant enough to not be a noise. The staff is attentive. I was alone and wanted something simple, at the staff's recommendation, ordered the Garden Pizza. I am not a pizza person so wasnt really expecting much -- just something to eat dinner. The wood fired pizza arrived in 10 mins. And my my !!! I was in for a treat. The thin crust was super crisp. The veggies sooo fresh that a pizza felt heavy, The Olive oil was jsut about prefect and the basil garnishing took the pizza to an all together next level of tasty !!! I finished the pizza all to myself, stuffed my stomach but my taste buds were left craving.
Another incident that deserves mention is the Staff's sense of duty and responsibility. I had a very stupid incident happen - I parked my rented scooty in front of the guest house I was staying but forgot the key in there itself.. Came back from the beach to see my scooty missing !! F***. Literally screwed up I felt. But when I woke up the next morning, the guard at Le Club, handed me the keys and said he saw that and kept it with him and parked the scooty inside. He said it was his duty !!! Look at the alertness and attentiveness man !! Truly impressed !!! Thank u again.
Went again for dinner on my last night since I was craving the pizza. Was greeted by the guard, had the same Garden Pizza and nothng changed. Totally loved it. Must Must go !!!
This is a nice restaurant in Pondi that you could go with your family for lovely dinner. In the evenings the ambience is really good and with the sea waves nearby it makes it all the more brilliant. Their Andhra style prawn curry and rice is a nice dish to try. They serve some amazing fish and chips too!
The restaurant is a fine place, a lane behind the promenade, with a welcoming colonial gateway. The restaurant has a casual holiday ambience with relaxed garden chairs and mood lights. The staff is minimalistic but very alert and helpful. We went here for our first dinner in Pondicherry and were very impressed with the standards and food.
We had a prawn with butter garlic as a starter..and loved the intense and complex flavours the basic ingredients brought to the perfectly cooked prawns(categorically deveined) from there it just kept getting better. I ordered for a berry infused rum on the rocks.. And it was heavenly.. Nothing the bartender did but just worth a mention.
Our main course was a chicken pasta, a chicken pizza and grilled fish. The chicken pasta only came with a white sauce, they dont alter the dishes so they did not give us pesto with chicken:(, our pasta came with green peas and some grated regular cheese, not parmesano, neither is any bread served with it.we asked for some bread and they offered a basket of fresh sliced baguettes (we were more than happy)!
The pizza had a lovely crispy base, rich tomatoey sauce with mozzarella cheese melted to perfection! With was full of toppings and infact a lot of other things apart from chicken and mushrooms, as mentioned in the menu)
The star dish was the grilled fish, two fillets of king fish with grilled vegetables and some salad. The fish was fresh, perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked! Also some of the best grilled vegetables i have had! The salad was just some leaves put together with no dressing but it hardly mattered!
The place seems a little overpriced for Pondicherry standards but the food is completely worth it!
Awesome food, good ambience, good service by waiters and near to Promenade beach. A little bit higher than other bars but worth the price...
After expecting a lot from this place, we rushed on a hot afternoon here. The chicken casserole was an absolute let down. when it comes to the ambience, I would recommend it but the food was simply disappointing.
A must place to visit for youngsters when you are in pondicherry. Good crowd, good food, good music, good collection of drinks for a great holiday...
This is my new favourite place!!!..The best part of the place is that every single rupee you spend here is worth it because of the wholesome experience of it! Will definitely be going back!
One more reason to go back to Puducherry, is to savour the impeccably authentically cooked superlicious food at Lé Club! I'm head over heals, not just at the food, but the ambience, location, service, not necessarily in that order! Me being a vegetarian, I have switched to non-veg very recently due to a health issue, where I'm advised to eat a lot of proteins, especially the ones derived from chicken and fish! And this restaurant perfectly complimented my need, and everything thats cooked is in olive oil, making it that much more interesting and apt! Loved every morsel of whatever that was served. A special thanks to the wonderful waitress Rupali, who was more than courteous!
Any easy, breezy beach shack, that isn't on the beach. Le Club reminds you of the tackily decorated shacks on the tourist infested beaches of North Goa (or Phuket. or Bali.). This one, just off the beach and secluded, is quite nice.
A good place to chill in the afternoon with a few beers and stir fried shell fish of various types. Service is nonchalant and laid back, just like the place. The "classic" seafood appetizers, like Golden Fried Prawn, and Buttered Squid Rings, are perfect for the place. The bottled beer is cold, and that's about all that should matter. The location is awesome.
The only real quibble is that they shut down for a siesta at 3 PM.
Having heard a lot about this eatery and it being my 1st visit to Pondicherry, my friends and I decided to see for ourselves whether it would live up to the hype. And we were not disappointed! The cafe was full at 8pm on Saturday night and we had to wait for 15 mins before getting a table under the fans.
The ambience n decor is minimalistic. But whatever it lacks there is made up fr in the taste of the food.
Food-
The seafood soup- tomato base- was a hit (im a seafood lover so i may be biased but a friend who's definition of non veg starts n ends with just chicken- couldn't stop raving about the soup, even days after returning from Pondicherry) and so were the grilled prawns. My friend had the seafood salad which was delicious as well. The chicken fried rice was great too!
Drinks-
They have a well stocked bar. I ordered a rum based cocktail which was decent, nothing great, over priced though since thrs no indoor seating or ac....
Though some food items were overpriced, taste wise they made up fr the price tag.
Will i visit again- yes definitely!
4 coz not of food, food was damm good and the ambience is ultimate perfect blend. Recommended for dinners as it's an alfresco dining area and pondy is too hot to sit out and relish lunch....
I reached at 3:30 sharp I have been denied to have lunch though 4 tables were having lunch and I wanted to have beer only with pizza and the person was rude at that point but the same server served during the dinner he was firm at that point too. It was great destiny to not to have lunch there other wise all great.
We had planned our dinner when it was not really a crowded evening. The arrangement was good. We got the table in no time. We ordered a Pizza with Chicken and Mushroom and also Steak with Pepper Sauce ordered well-done. The food came on time. Both Pizza and steak were good.
One thing that bothered me was the fact that it was not a smoke free environment. They should plan to have a smoke free area for people like me who do not want to sit in the midst of the thick smoke.
Other than that the rest were good. Thumps up!
This was my first trip to Pondicherry and this is the first place where we dined. The experience was too good. The restaurant is in the french colony and has a nice ambience about it. The food is delicious and mouth watering. The ambience is a lil reminder of a retro bar cum restaurant. We ordered Classic Caesar salad and Spaghetti Bolognaise. Overall a nice experience 👍👌🍺🍻
Food was surprisingly good given the ambiance which could be better. Service was fast and courteous. Good for budget meal. There was various types beer and was good
Chill place. Decent ambience. Good food. Service was okay. A good choice to visit to talk with your friends and enjoy your drinks. Beer is cheap. Other alcohols are little expensive.
This was another place that was recommended by our friends.
The ambiance was nice.
It's an open air place, good comfortable furniture. There was good music playing as well.
The waiter was friendly and helped us decide what to order.
We ordered the specials of the day-
Beef Steak in Blue cheese and wine sauce
Roasted Pork
The Steak was delicious, excellent cut of meat and cooked well to my liking. The sauce was excellent. The french fries served on the side were crisp.
The roasted pork was also delicious. It was served in a hot and sweet herby sauce, with vegetables on the side.
Our overall experience here was good, although we did feel it was a tad bit overpriced.
Everything about this restaurant is AMAZING. Food quality is great and ambience is superb too. I loved all dishes. Best for sea food.
Everything about this restaurant is AMAZING.
Food quality is great and ambience is superb too. I loved all the dishes.
Best for sea food.
I liked the nearly open air place under the mango tree as the climate was unusually nice. There were fans too, ready to step in, if the breeze got lazy. The pork chops could have been a bit better perhaps with a darker sauce instead of the bright red one. Bira blonde wasn't available but there was Budweiser. The place might be more interesting in the night.

This places deserves to get 5* rating not sure why they stand at 4*.
Met chef James as well and he was very accommodating with the allergies. I would recommend everyone to visit this place when in town.
First, this review is from my visits years ago, this place has created such fond memories for me and my friends through food and drinks. I always ask for the chicken sizzler which is my favourite and they never fail to disappoint. I am tagging this place to ensure that I visit Le Club, again, in a trip that’s planned soon this year.
Nice rooftop dining space. Service takes some time. But the dishes were tasty and awesome..Great place to have dinner with family and to spent quality time..after dinner a slow walk in the beach will be overwhelming..
It's became on of my fav restaurant since yesterday night, positive atmosphere, ambiance looking very cool and enhance. Awesome Taste and quality and quantity wise. Personally one of my fav❤️ best retro bar in pondicherry
The food is really good! The steaks are really well cooked with the simmering sauce that really accentuates the flavor of the meat. But what was really the most enjoyable was the Pizza.
Fresh out of their wood baking ovens, the cheese is just gorgeous and cooked just right, with the meat tender and juicy! It is truly something not to be missed. The best pizza I've had in Pondicherry!
Visited recently, food is tasty n prices are affordable.Staffs are very friendly. You can ask customization according to your taste.n the ambience is nice u can chill out

Food was good, felt like this place has existed for some time, judging by the food. Enjoyed the sizzler and grilled seafood. Staff were friendly and helpful. No cigarette shops nearby so recommend bringing your own. Crème brulee was good too.
the place has moved as it is undergoing renovation. however, the food has also undergone a changeover and is now many times better than what it was. the beef steak was excellent, juicy, soft and tender. excellent!
Price bit expensive than other restaurants. Had grilled pork and penné. Grilled pork was seasoned with sweet bbq sauce which is nice.
The place is situated just parallel to rock beach, the places serves the best food with proper spices, the best dish according to me is the prawn pepper fry, please do hv if u visit this place, drinks are best in brands, the place has good ambience.
We loved the place was quiet and clean , food was decent but slow overall experience was good.
Nice quiet restaurant. Its homily feeling with good bar. Balcony is better with view of road. Those who like simple but quiet place and interested in chat, may go to this place.
Must visit if you are looking to get a taste of French cuisine. A bit costly but given the place and ambience , it's worth a visit. It's near to the Rock Beach.
Excellent food so the wine. Very good ambience. But evening too much rush better to get reservation for dinner .
