★★★ Michelin€€€€Creative

Nestling in Anse Corton, an unspoilt natural cove facing Cap Canaille, La Villa Madie, housed in swish contemporary premises and flanked by a terrace, boasts an idyllic location with a drop-dead view of the Mediterranean. Hailing from Normandy, chef Dimitri Droisneau draws his inspiration from his passion for Provence. From one dish to the next, he rolls out a light, subtle, flavoursome score that is fresh and aromatic, punchy when necessary and always surprising and original. The magic of the French Riviera and ingredients from land and sea are blended to great effect in this culinary tapestr

Les Belles Canailles

€€€€Mediterranean Cuisine

The view from the terrace of this luxury hotel restaurant (popular with celebrities), which looks out over Cap Canaille, is quite simply sublime. Chef serves his guests Mediterranean-inspired cuisine that has a focus on fish, but also features, for example, local lamb and seasonal vegetables. However, you may prefer to opt for the chef's down-to-earth speciality of bouillabaisse borgne, followed by a wild bass and its broth of pistou soup… All accompanied by a Cassis or Bandol wine, as you would expect.
