Auberge du pêcheur

We reserved a table here in advance having read a mention on the Michelin guide. As soon as we walked through the fish shop - owned and run by the father of the restaurant owner, a true passionate fisherman family - and enter the garden we felt a warm and familiar vibe yet elegant and charming. The owner is a master of hospitality: he welcomed us explaining the kitchen philosophy, their fishing technique which preserves the fish taste and texture and is respectful towards the animal (ikejime). Big sized fish such as tuna and swordfish are the heroes of the menu. We ordered the tataki and the sushi to start, then tuna steak (my personal highlight) and the fish soup. Everything was wonderful, taste, color, everything. Definitely our best dinner in Corsica.

We enjoyed our meal here, but felt that the main courses were a little too refined and masked the flavour of the fish. We not anti fusion cooking, but when you've got amazing fresh fish, we feel you should be able to taste that and not too many other flavours. That said the fish soup was incredible and the tuna and fois gras was different in a good way, which works well together. The service was excellent from start to finish and the wine options paired well.

We enjoyed a lovely dinner at Auberge du pecheur. The staff were excellent and the decor tasteful, modern, minimalist. Offering chopsticks to pair with the sashimi would have been a slight preference but overall, the food and wine pairings were delightful and we’d definitely go back next time we’re in beautiful, sunny Corsica.

A beautiful and modest restaurant from michelin guide, where you can have delicious sea food (in a silent backyard) away from the crowds in St Florent. Corsica is not short of great sea food but this restaurant was our favourite and we look forward to coming back. The chef is japanese and the fresh sea food is served in japanese style but also influenced by some mediterranean spirit. For the quality of the food / size of the dishes, the prices were reasonable: we had a shared appetizer, 2 fish main dishes, dessert, wine, coffee, if I remember right the invoice was somewhere in between 120-130 eur. The garden is beautiful and silent, tables are disinfected, white table clothes and flowers, the service very kind.

Good tuna restaurant in Saint-Florent! The restaurant serves great tuna (killed with Ikejime) and several other regional fishes. We tried the sashimi, the sushi and the tataki (the MUST). The service is great and the restaurant hidden behind the fish shop is really spectacular. You need to make a reservation otherwise you will not get a table. A bit expensive but totally worth it!

Excellent fish dinner, good service, desert a bit too sweet. Overall was a great experience.

A big space yet very cozy and romantic. The seafood was fresh and creative, service was excellent.

Amazing concept, and exceptional food!!! the fisherman set up a restaurant in his backyard, where you must pass through his shop, so not so visible from the outside. Beautiful devoration. A must if you find yourself in this area. The sushi was excellent, but the star of the night were the grilled gambas!!

A fun evening. Fresh fish prepared expertly. Sea Bream, Tuna Tartar, oysters. Lovely service and dining outside (within the atrium.) The front of the restaurant is the fish store, so you can see what's on the menu before diving in; talk about fresh. One of the top dining spots in St. Florent. Excellent Corsican wine list; with our fish I enjoyed the light, affordable, lemony, minerally Vin blanc -- Clos Marfisi Inseme Patrimonio which is cultivated nearby. (What grows together goes together.) You will have a great evening! I certainly hope to return.

This is a posh place with prices to match. The quality of the food is very high, and the dishes are innovative, so it is well worth a visit! We had oysters and tuna tartare to start with - both were god, but lacked some of the finer details. The tuna tartare lacked seasoning, and the oysters were not loosened (if that is the correct term), which is no tradgedy, but still somewhat vexing. The main courses we had - tuna steak and tiger prawns with tomato and olive oil sauce and mashed potatoes with ginger, were excellent, especially the prawns. For dessert, we had the lemon tart and the goat cheese ice cream with myrte gel - thw latter was truly a revellation. Service was attentive, as you would expect from this kind of upscale place, but some of the waiters could do with a course in serving wines. At the prices they have, L'Auberge du Pecheur needs to get the details right.
