Jean-Luc Rossi gives life to local dishes with a focus on traditional cuisine so unusual today. The priority of the Head is always preferred the taste and authenticity. It selects its products respecting the seasonality to ensure freshness and flavors in all its dishes. A nice wine, suave dishes at very affordable rates in a Parisian atmosphere. A journey of the senses that this talented chef mastered.

Open every day from 10am for the beach, and 12pm for lunch. Dinner service starts Friday 12th May. TABLE RESERVATIONS: (PHONE ONLY) +33 4 93 01 58 21. Nestled in a secret bay, the restaurant invites you to get away in a set up brought back from the islands of the Indian Ocean… Indonesian statues and tropical plants inhabit the beach, surrounded by turquoise chairs – a hue reminding the colours of the Balinean sea. The multicoloured bar and tables are a reminder of the Indian Ocean’s fishermen’s boats. And rightfully so, as they are made from their recycled wood. A scene from overseas, where you’ll discover a local cuisine presenting generous mediterranean recipes made with fresh products.
