尤卡利普特斯酒店

This enchanting little restaurant boasts an amazing terrace that unfolds along the quayside of the port. Chef Thomas Duval works with the catch supplied by his fisherman brother, which he brilliantly combines with other ingredients to create dishes throbbing with contrasting flavours. Examples include crunchy wild prawns, panko breadcrumbs, fregola of veggies, herbs, sweet-sour sauce or low-temperature fillet of umbrine in a lemony sauce of capers and parsley with courgette fritters. Consider us smitten!

Chez Parenti has been around since 1935, its kitchens successively manned by generation after generation of the same family! Those who love seafood are in for a treat – lobster and langoustines sold by weight, fish caught in the bay – but, to cater to all palates, there is also a small selection of Corsican meats, as well as an array of wonderful local cheeses. The cooking is technically on point and the dishes are nicely put together. Enjoy your meal in the comfort of the large shaded terrace that faces the Gulf of Valinco and the boats at anchor.

Welcome to "bygone days" (tempi fà), in this grocer's-cum-bistro run by a passionate man who selects the island's finest ingredients! You enter via the shop, reminiscent of an actual village market (cold cuts, cheeses, myrtle liqueur etc).

Lobster, fish from small-scale local fishermen… and fricassee of lobster with buttered capellini, the house speciality. The wine is served by the glass from magnums, which is a nice touch! More limited menu at lunchtime.

Just a few kilometres from Sartène, this equestrian centre and restaurant set in the middle of the maquis promises an authentic foray into the mountainous side of Corsica. In a rustic-style interior blending wood and stone, the establishment has plenty of charm, with its country garden and white wrought-iron and wooden tables. The cuisine is hearty and delicious, with a focus on local ingredients. The organic veal and beef are reared on site; the fruit and vegetables are sourced from the kitchen garden or local producers. The meal includes a traditional soup, generous cannelloni with Brousse c
