    The steak and frits were very good. The bouillabaisse was not as good as in the past. The shrimp and calamari in it were over done, but still tasty.

    We had a lovely luncheon. The food, drink, and atmosphere are always great. Tried the beet salad for the first time and loved it. The menu has changed, but it is even better than before! The service is attentive and friendly. We love Miramar ❤️
