    • This institution has benefited from a magnificent transformation. Patricia and Hervé have given a new lease of life to this restaurant located on the beautiful Allée du Mail.

      You will be seduced by a neat and warm decoration offering a trendy and luminous atmosphere but also by a willingly smiling welcome.

      There is no doubt that the service here is attentive, allowing you to spend a nice moment around a carefully laid table.

      The menu is simple and creative, based on fresh produce. It changes several times a week.

      Hervé, a trained sommelier, has created a fascinating wine list.

      The opportunity to enjoy carefully prepared dishes with mastered cooking, to be tasted while fully enjoying the view of the ocean.
