The first couple minutes were okay. Then the waiter asked us very impatiently and rude what we‘d like to eat. After a long time and several reminders, my starter arrived. It was nothing special but I‘ve had worse. After more minutes of waiting...and several more reminders, the main dish arrived. The entrecote of my girlfriend was of poor quality and one fry had a moldy spot on it. My paella was good but for that price this was the least it could be. Throughout the whole evening we couldn‘t shake the feeling that the staff didn‘t like us because we were non-french speakers. We were polite and tried our best ordering in french. I cannot stress this enough: If you like good quality food and goo...
The restaurant itself looks very lovely and their standard dish is paealla which is quiet good. The other food (cannelloni) tasted microwaved (definitely was which is pretty disappointing. All in all the staff clearly wants to serve you fast you get the meals after...approximately minutes after ordering. That makes the ambient pretty stressful and that made us uncomfortable. They clearly want to get you out of the restaurant fast to get new tourists in. All in all it is the kind of restaurants in Porto/Vecchio that just serve tourists and where no local is seen.
The location is absolutely lovely, as the restaurant itself is. Very well decorated and beautiful lights. The food was good (we took pork and aubergine) even though I was sorry not having tried the paella because it was finished, it looked really good. Just one...observation: one of the waitresses (just her) was very very rude and took me the wrong dish, but quickly another one solved the issue. Some breafing must be done to the waitresses and it would not be bad that having also an English written menu. Anyway, good place!
Initially we wanted to eat at the port, but felt most places a bit too trendy and expensive for what the were offering. So we walked up to the city in the Citadelle (nice by the way and stumbled on this restaurant. Quite full and...decent prices. Food was in general very good and service was friendly (albeit a bit on the fast side). Would recommend when in P-V.

If you are looking for to save a little bit of money the Pergola is for you compare other restaurants price around) Went to get a Paëlla and was a bit disappointed (no enough flavour and the bread was somewhat hard (very dry) otherwise...the service was great and the decorations around the restaurant is a must seen
Disgusting food at not a very good price. Two of us had paella which was dry with bad quality meat, one had the steak which was extremely chewy and fatty and the last person had the wild boar which was hard and tasted foul. Would...never go back and would recommend others to avoid.
I had the mussels with curry sauce which was excellent. My husband had the roast pork which was good but not great. The service was excellent and friendly. The price was half of other restaurants in the area. Lovely location and setting.
Decent traditional Corsican food. Lively crowded atmosphere in the middle of the old town. You can stay away from the main room stressful atmosphere if you can a table in the street.

We really enjoyed the atmosphere of this restaurant! Very good food! Very friendly and nice service! Fantastic paella!
This place just needs a person who can cook. Mussels full of raw onion and served cold. It isn’t hard!
