Why go
Comme Vous Voulez is the practical choice for an easy Dunkirk seafront meal, especially at lunch or for a low-pressure dinner. Book it for convenience and coastal positioning rather than awards, chef pedigree, or a clearly defined cuisine format; cross-shop Renée, Le Gaston, Le Puzzle, La table de Cha', and Estaminet Flamand if the meal needs more occasion energy.
About Comme Vous Voulez
Comme Vous Voulez in Dunkirk works best as a practical option when the group wants clear timing. Details about Comme Vous Voulez are limited, but the opening pattern is useful: lunch is available Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, with dinner Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Wednesday is closed.
Use it for an easy lunch or dinner, not a trophy meal
The right expectation is important here. With no cuisine category, named chef, awards, price tier, menu format, or signature dishes, this should not be treated as a heavily documented destination restaurant. Treat it as a practical option for a timed lunch or dinner, especially when the group values simplicity over a dining experience with more readily available details.
For planning, the main advantage is rhythm. Midday service runs across much of the week, while dinner is available most evenings except Wednesday and Sunday. Saturday dinner runs later than other dinner services, Sunday is lunch only. The dress code is smart casual, so the safest approach is polished but not overly formal.
Who should choose it, who should cross-shop
Choose Comme Vous Voulez if the group wants a direct meal in Dunkirk and is comfortable choosing without extensive detail on cuisine, price, or menu style. For another option to compare, consider Estaminet Flamand. You can also compare Comme Vous Voulez with Renée, Le Gaston, Le Puzzle, La table de Cha'.
The verdict: choose Comme Vous Voulez for a practical lunch or dinner plan in Dunkirk, with smart casual dress and hours that make advance timing useful. Do not choose it expecting a clearly documented destination restaurant experience. If the meal needs to carry a special occasion, compare other options first, then choose based on the details that matter most to the group.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Comme Vous Voulez sits literally on the Digue de Mer, and the restaurant's identity is defined by that immediate relationship to the North Sea. The writing emphasizes an address-driven kitchen: menus move with the tide and the week's catch rather than a fixed regional canon. Because Dunkirk is not a conventional dining destination, the place feels quietly accomplished rather than performative — a hidden coastal table where sourcing and seasonality set the tone. The result is an understated, scenic spot that foregrounds freshness and the character of the Opal Coast.
Best For
This is a restaurant for people who want seafood anchored to place: the building is on the seafront, the menu follows what the North Sea delivers, and dishes highlight local shrimp, cockles, oysters and white fish. It works well for a focused evening meal where the provenance of what’s on your plate matters — date nights and serious dinners are natural fits. The setting rewards lingering over seasonal plates and the coastal view, especially when the menu reflects the week’s catch from nearby ports.
Ordering Tips
Let the sea set the plan: the kitchen leans on whatever is freshest, so ask about the day's catch. From the listed signatures, start light with the haddock tartare and its dill-and-cucumber lift, try the calamari with garlic butter and broccoli purée for a briny, savory starter, and follow with the cod with three peppers or the confit duck if you want something richer. Given the restaurant’s emphasis on short supply lines from the Opal Coast, be ready to order house seafood specials when they appear.

If the group wants a more place-specific Dunkirk meal, try Estaminet Flamand. If the brief is a more polished restaurant pick rather than an easy seafront plan, compare availability at Renée or Le Gaston.
Restaurant context
How it compares in Dunkirk
Comme Vous Voulez is the easier, location-led choice in this Dunkirk set: useful when the meal is built around the seafront and the group does not want a complicated reservation. Renée and Le Gaston are better cross-shops when the restaurant itself needs to be the reason for going, not just the area.
For atmosphere, Estaminet Flamand is the more obvious pick if the group wants a local, Flemish-feeling meal. Le Puzzle and La table de Cha' are worth checking when the priority is a more deliberate dining plan. Choose Comme Vous Voulez when ease, daytime usefulness, beach-side logistics matter more than a documented chef-led format.
