Christopher Coutanceau

Seafood, Modern Cuisine · ★★★ Michelin

€€€€

Overlooking the Plage de la Concurrence, the sign on the front of the restaurant says it all: "Christopher Coutanceau, chef and fisherman." Fishing here is a lifelong family passion, and Christopher takes it further by campaigning for sustainable methods and against waste. His sincere and unfussy cuisine, with its bouquet of marine scents, an invigorating ode to the Atlantic Ocean, is an extension of this commitment. The finest fish and seafood - turbot, sole, sea urchin - is prepared with care and imagination, while the modest mackerel or sardine is rendered sublime by the same devotion and t

Gaya - Cuisine de Bords de Mer par Pierre Gagnaire

Creative

€€€€

Taste Pierre Gagnaire’s free-spirited culinary vision at Gaya, part of La Grande Terrasse Hotel, not far from Les Boucholeurs. The local score seamlessly mixes surf and turf ingredients in elegant dishes flanked by high-flying jus, sauces and crèmes. An example: small oysters and razor clams steamed in white wine and paired with wild seaweed and finely chopped cauliflower. Swish service and a stylish interior, all of which with a breathtaking view of the ocean. Splendid wine list and wines by the glass from magnum bottles.

Modern Cuisine, Seafood · Bib

€€

Piedmontese chef Gabriele Ferri and his wife Marie-Nolwenn run this bistro, which has been given a nautical makeover against a backdrop of pale stone walls and contemporary furnishings. The culinary focus is on seafood and veggies, with Italian influences and the odd bold note. Examples: Japanese inspired poached hake flanked by daikon radish, dashi stock and umeboshi (savoury plums). Meat, meanwhile, only features during the hunting season. A signature dish: chard roasted in its skin, paired with asparagus, fennel, a burnt lemon paste and a beer-flavoured beurre blanc.

Le Relais des Salines

Seafood · Bib

€€

This waterside bistro showcases seafood flavours and super-fresh produce. The menu sails between timeless classics (oysters, confit of octopus, lentils, mustard-flavoured sabayon and the chef’s lemon pie) and more spur-of-the-moment recipes. Inside, this former oyster shed upholds its heritage, while the terrace overlooking the marshes is blissful.

This picturesque 19C blue and white house stands on the boulevard that skirts the immense beach. Take a seat in a contemporary dining room overlooking the sea and dig into beautifully presented super-fresh fish and shellfish platters, the establishment’s pride and joy. Guaranteed to find favour with seafood lovers!

L'Instant Z

Modern Cuisine

€€€

Z for Zanchetta, the chef celebrates his Italian heritage with sun-drenched cuisine and lashings of flair and talent: creamy risotto of scallops à la “risi e bisi”, spianata and cuttlefish ink jus; pearlescent cod on polenta with wild garlic and a wildly decadent and incredibly ethereal pavlova of strawberries and chocolate to finish. House baked bread and rillettes of hake kick off the show in this buzzy bistro in the heart of the village, where generosity and delicacy go hand in hand.

L'Hysope

Creative, Modern Cuisine

€€€

In a quaint little village, a short drive from La Rochelle, this restaurant stands at the end of a pedestrian only lane. Alsace-born chef Nicolas Durif unveils his passion for plants (like hyssop), of which he uses up to 60 in summertime, sourced from France and the rest of the world. Discreet nods to his homeland can be found in his creative lineup and in the enticing wine list. His several course surprise menus rich in citrus fruits and Asian spices come highly recommended.

La Pierrevue

Modern Cuisine

€€

"There are six seasons in the year": with this saying in mind, chef Cécile Richard adapts her recipes to the times, with a drive for creativity that can be sensed in her fresh and precise cuisine. Locally caught fish, fruit and vegetables from organic market gardeners, aromatic herbs and flowers from the garden can be enjoyed in this farmhouse, converted in a pleasant rustic style. Attractive glass-paned wine cellar. New menu every two months.
