I came to this place a couple of times.
The owner is so sweet, you can really see that he likes his job, food and drinks. He is so proud of the prices that he gave for the food (its a good price for the center of the city)
Food :
The food is traditional and good! A lot of stuff to chose from. Plus it's a loot of food for the price so it's nice.
Café :
The café is very good and recommended.
Service :
I felt welcome and enjoyed the time in the restaurant.

The first time I went to Le Monastir, I ordered a brik with a salad (salade tunisienne). I had a good dinner. I have been here more than once. If you want to try some good Tunisian food, you need to visit the place. If you're from Monastir (Tunisia), this place is authentic. I always go in the night, they are open until late. The owners are very polite and down-to-earth. Also, they are always happy and treat their customers very well. Congratulations, keep it up!

I lived few years ago in Montpellier without discovering Le Monastir, what a regret!!!
visiting a friend, he and I were looking for a quiet place to eat, we stumbled upon this address by chance and the least we can say is that 5 stars are not enough to reward this place .
we’ve been welcomed and ate tasty meals. Everything, including the coffee and the lemonade (a real one for once), was perfect!! !
This place is to be visited, its food is to be tasted without moderation and the host is to be listened without a doubt, because he’s very friendly, very good adviser and available to his guests.
I will return to Montpellier and this time I know where I will go to enjoy a tasty meal, Le Monastir.
Thank you sir for this attention and I wish you a good fortune.

I visited at around 9.45pm on the 3rd August 2022. I had called in advance to ask if they were open as I was disappointed to find that Mogador, the couscous restaurant I was recommended, was closed. I was told that they were open till 11.30pm, which was good.
I turned up and one of the staff there showed me to a table on the terrace (No tables inside, I think, as it’s really small) and gave me their very basic menu (no ‘couscous royal (merguez, chicken, lamb)’
He then sat at a table with a colleague and started playing with his phone. After around 5 minutes, I started waving to get someone’s attention. The “manager” finally came after 15 minutes. I said that I wanted to leave as the service was so poor. He persuaded me to stay and said I could have a couscous with lamb and chicken to make up for the fact that they don’t have any merguez. After around 10 minutes the couscous arrived. The manager said he’d given me a larger portion (didn’t look very large!) because I’d had to wait so long. I began to tuck into the couscous and discovered that the lamb and chicken were cold to the touch. I called the “manager” over and said that not only had the service been poor but then I get served couscous with cold lamb and chicken. He tried to assure me that that was the Tunisian way of serving couscous. I said that I wasn’t that naive and have been eating couscous from various North African / Maghreb countries for over 30 years. He said that I didn’t have to pay, but I should carry on trying it. I didn’t try to eat any more as it was cold. I left - really disappointed at the poor service and poor quality of food. Avoid this “restaurant” like the plague!! I’d give zero stars if I could.
