"A 10-minute ferry ride from Cannes to Île Sainte-Marguerite brings you to a sprawling beachside restaurant that, even for a 25-person lunch, delivers simple, perfectly executed dishes: grilled fish and octopus, potatoes dauphinoise, burrata, delicate fish carpaccio, and a notably beautiful chocolate cake. As the lunch crowd mellows the vibe becomes playfully clubby—magnums of rosé, a DJ, sparklers in bottles and diners waving napkins—an atmosphere that feels charming and fitting in the afternoon Riviera sun." - Amanda Kludt
