Gault&Millau's review 2026

The small coastal road just in front doesn't detract from the majestic panorama: the sea, the beach, the sharp rocks and the silhouette of the Île Vierge lighthouse... Of course, to enjoy all this to the full, you'll need to choose your table carefully in this vast, luminous room of elegant simplicity. The atmosphere is very relaxed, and the smiling staff carry out their duties with diligence and efficiency (although a quick clean-up before serving dessert wouldn't hurt!). David Royer's cuisine is largely marine and plant-based, with a menu that moves upmarket in the evenings and at weekends. If the plate of vegetables and seaweed seemed to us to be a bit of a slog, on the other hand, the abalone in parsley (not too intrusive) curled up under a "cloud" of potatoes deserves a hearty round of applause. Next, seaweed returns in the form of a well-balanced broth to accompany ravioli stuffed with lobster, whose presence proves a little too discreet. A simple, pleasant dessert in the form of an orange baba flanked by a gourmet cream and cardamom ice cream. The short wine list is straight to the point, with a few well-reputed estates: Valençay from Domaine Sinson, Chinon from Domaine du Saut du Loup, for example. It has the merit of not pushing the bill too high!
