Appartement Palazzo T2 Patrimonio

Chef Yann Le Scavarec, who hails from Morbihan, is at the helm of this restaurant, which boasts an ideal location on the Saint-Florent harbour front. His well-crafted contemporary cooking showcases local produce, eg lamb and veal from Oletta, fish sourced directly from a local fisherman, barbecued crayfish. Try the bluefin tuna, puffed rice crust, served as a tartare with nori, miso-cooked aubergine and a sesame and lime condiment. The elegant modern interior reflects the philosophy behind the food.

Bang on Roya Beach with a matchless view of the bay of Saint Florent, this hotel-restaurant rolls out a huge terrace lined in gardens that stretches down to the seafront. At the helm are César and Fanny Combe whose globetrotting careers took them to luxury hotels in Polynesia and Vietnam. This cosmopolitan background adds a subtle edge to a modern Mediterranean score rich in vibrant, colourful flavours and dotted with exotic notes, illustrated by Tahitian-style tuna or the ginger, coconut or bok choy ingredients that jazz up some of the dishes. An idyllic setting against a backdrop of waves ge

In an elegant, vaulted interior, chef Quentin Sanchez sings a heartfelt ode to produce. Organic veg, farm-reared veal, local fish and olive oil: meticulous sourcing that also features a handful of cherry-picked ingredients from outside the island, like anchovies from Cantabria, Jersey beef and Breton lobster. The focus is on substance over showmanship, underscored by spot-on technique and seasoning, crisp plating and bold, forthright flavours.

In a decor that oozes unpolished charm, Corsican ingredients are prepared with panache; the forthright and generous dishes often show flashes of creative flair. A case in point is the bluefin tuna crudo in an iced prisuttu broth seasoned with bottarga, or the floating islands topped with fermented milk cream and accompanied by a tarragon sorbet.

Perched on a rocky outcrop looking out across Nonza's bay, this old stone building sits alongside the Genoese tower and commands views stretching as far as Saint-Florent. Below the Paoline tower, the terraced dining area enjoys spectacular panoramas of the sea. The chef cooks up traditional Corsican cuisine that draws on Italian influences but is firmly rooted in local Corsican produce: local fish from Centuri, lamb from a neighbouring farmer, olive oil from the village, and vegetables from the kitchen garden – in season, almost solely. An authentic restaurant that also has a reasonably priced

A small, listed village on the Cap Corse road is home to this demure restaurant, hidden by a curtain of Virginia Creeper and tall plane trees. The chef unveils his know-how as he crafts painstakingly sourced, local and seasonal ingredients, illustrated by ultra-fresh croaker, pancetta and pork jus in a surf and turf recipe of wondrous harmony. Love at first bite.
