    • Located a 10-minute walk from the historic center of La Rochelle and 400 meters from the Old Port, the restaurant is close to the hotels in the city center.

      In a traditional seated meal we can accommodate 8 to 80 seated people while preserving the 35 linear meters of ocean view.

      As the establishment is on one level, it is possible to have the aperitif part on the terrace in good weather.

      Depending on the day of the week and the time of year, privatization can be easily carried out.

      Our menus are traditionally made (starter / main course / dessert) but if you want to add a convivial touch we can, for example, serve the starter in the form of a 2-meter-long "tapas board"... guaranteed effect !

      Accustomed to event planning, we are able to find solutions for your parties and empty the entire restaurant in order to hold, for example, a cocktail party for 150 people.

      The open kitchen allows for the creation of a cocktail reception in a workshop format.
