Gault&Millau's review 2026

Christopher Coutanceau's marine brasserie combines the beauty of its ocean-facing setting, the calm of its surroundings away from the crowds, and the quality of its produce, handled with wit and knowledge. The attractive menu brings together all the naturalness of the harvest (oysters, seafood, platters...), with a variety of tastes, including a good fish soup, cockles with passion and lime sauce, yuzu ceviche or the perfect organic egg with asparagus. We continue with hake steak or Iberian pluma, grilled lobster and Galician rib-eye steak on a good day. Efficient service, good pavlova or tatin for dessert. Cocktails and beers, good choice of wines by the glass or pitcher
