The name of the restaurant is rather fitting, right on the edge of beautiful and small town, that truly feels like one has taken a de tour, especially after driving through beautiful tiny streets where each side of the "road" is decorated by cute houses.The restaurant itself is rather lovely, the staff is friendly, personable, and welcoming, with service being on point, attentive but not overbearing which made the whole experience that much better.We went for the set menu, which for 26 gives three courses, very decently sized and filling enough to leave the place festively plump, yet not stuffed so you can go an explore the nearby cannon fodder towers which are part of the towns history.If you can, avoid having well done steak, else you would miss out on the exquisite flavours, tenderness and overall maginifique culinary wonder that I had this evening. The steak, as seen on the pictures, was truly and wonderfuly medium-rare and chef done a stellar job from start to finish, goats cheese salad for starter, steak for main with chips and salad (yes I like my greens) and top it off with delicious creme brule. My friends went for sea food options and oysters and we're raving about their dishes as well so overall, success with every dish.The restaurant is located next to the marina. This evening they accommodated variety of guests from family with a toddler, through two people tucked away in a corner, to small group of three friends and also a large group of people.Personally i found the place rather lovely, easy on the eye with great atmosphere, modern decor, outdoor seating are and positive vibe where one can truly enjoy their meal... Wholeheartedly recommended. This was a wonderful ending to our last evening in France, thank you.

Excellent meal of a beautiful fish and of course oysters. The staff does a great job and were very kind and helpful as I speak virtually no French. The creme brulee was an amazing finish to a wonderful meal!

We had a great time thanks to very pleasant service and fresh products. The setting of the restaurant facing the port and with a very modern decoration allows you to have a pleasant time.
