Gault&Millau's review 2026

It's the marine table on the avenue, offering an iodized, contemporary experience in a minimalist, contemporary setting. In the kitchen, chef Benjamin Girard (formerly of Philippe Etchebest) demonstrates his skill with local produce. His menu is creative and engaging, with choices including semi-cooked trout, yogurt cream, cucumber, kiwi, dill and fish roe; monkfish, pear, seaweed butter noodles and Armoricaine sauce; beef cheek confit with beer, M. Renaud's button mushrooms, crispy polenta and parsley emulsion; and pommes confites façon tatin and cider mousse. Regional wine list.
