Gault&Millau's review 2025

The seagulls of the 16th are in for a treat. Léopold and Hippolyte (Talaya, ex-Crillon) have joined forces to cast off from Mamie, the restaurant dedicated to traditional dishes. With this bistro as casual as a beach bar, they opened their window onto the ocean: a small counter, a large family-style table on vacation, and a few more intimate units in the back near the lazarette. Then it's Florian (Giacalone) at the helm, sending out tapas that look simple and pleasant, but taste just right: clams au gratin with wild garlic, razor clams plancha with sauce vierge, tourteau en rillettes et avocat bouillon végétal (the only thing we found superfluous that evening), the delicious asparagus blanche mayonnaise bulot échalote and, on the main course, the good fish and chips (as the lady next door says, "y'a même pas de chips, c'est des frites!") and the pea and snow pea risotto with scampi that were too small, and therefore a little linty. Between the decor, the atmosphere and the plates that are spinning at full speed, there's plenty to enjoy. The wine cellar is well stocked, without revolution but with pleasure: Pesquié, Ancienne Cure, Pellé, Jacky Blot..
