Huître Brûlée

My wife and I had a wonderful evening at Huître Brûlée. Service and atmosphere were superb. Food was excellent, we especially loved amuse bouche, starters and desserts. Mains were very good, but overshadowed by other courses. We would certainly go back if in the area. Price was more reasonable than expected.

One of our best dining experiences in France. All dishes were super delicious and flavourful. Enjoyed also our bottle of brut nature champagne. The service was excellent too. Look forward to returning one day.

This was the best restaurant experience during my trip to Normandy. Friendly and warm service, super delicious food for starters, main course and dessert. The chef has a very good sense of taste and of course the fish - it was done in the best way, delicious, juicy and with crispy skin! If I were in the same city longer, I would visit this place every night!

What a delicious food they serve. The pork loin was cooked to perfection with a good sauce to complement the meat. The wine selections are amazing. The chocolate ganache was basically ‘death by chocolate.’ the service was slow since they were busy but it was worth waiting.

There's a reason why it's always booked out. Excellent wine list, spectacular cuisine and friendly service.

Absolutely beautiful food and champagne, in a gorgeous intimate setting. I was welcomed in by the chefs who cook just off the main door. Beautifully fresh and juicy oysters, a great little amuse bouche with fascinating and smart flavours, mussels in the loveliest brothy sauce, the best duck breast I’ve had in France, and amazing warm and welcoming service throughout.

Superb food and service. I now wish I wasn’t travelling through but staying a while. I’d definitely be back. Really delicious food, possibly the best of our France trip so far, and the types of wines we love, both by the glass and by the bottle. Thank you team!

This place is absolutely fantastic. A more than welcome suprise when you visit Honfleur. Lovely atmosphere and incredibly friendly Chefs & Staff. The wine selection is great, the food is absolutely fantastic and affordable for the quality being served. (Tip: unexpectedly, the best seat on the place is actually the table by the entrance, fantastic experience).

One of our most pleasant dining experiences in Honfleur. The restaurant was in a beautiful restored residence near the center of town. It had tremendous atmosphere, excellent food and an attentive staff

We found a little restaurant that has only been open 3 months, Huitre Brûlée, 8 rue Brûlée, 09 82 57 90 18. Grade - "A"! It has only a dozen or so tables, a 4 top in the outside courtyard, an 8 top round inside and the others 3-4 but anything can expand a little. It is quite comfortable and simply but prettily decorated. The menu (carte) is small too but interesting, as is the wine list (hand picked with only 3 in each of a half dozen categories), but there is a new, well priced "menu" (complete meal) each day. The chef's name is Paul Lacheray, foodies should remember in case he ever moves away from what he's created. We ordered 2 "menus". The entrée was green asparagus and carrots, roasted with a light sauce of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, cumin and chives with shavings of a cheese that most resembled an orange cheddar. Absolutely delightful and different. The " plat" was a seared duck breast, a steak if you will, perfectly cooked "rosé" and tender, with fava beans and roast potatoes in a light sauce of olive oil, capers, mustard seed, chives and secret stuff. Fabulous. Desert was a thick chocolate mousse, with chocolate shavings and "crunchies". Terrific. His cuisine is one of light sauces both in consistency and flavor, and worked perfectly with his dishes. Go here! We actually went back that night for a couple of appetizer to test their regular menu. After ordering we were given an amuse bouche of little slice of squid lightly roasted with a little soy. I had, no surprise, 6 oysters titled "4 + 2 surprises". I eat oysters with nothing added, no lemon, no mignonettes, no nothing, but I wanted to see what he did. Well one came with a little of a very light mignonette and the other with a little faux caviar. Two very interesting and light changes, but when you have very fresh oysters, they are hard to improve on. Nice try though. Just had an appetizer of lightly sautéed in olive oil with some steamed broccoli and potatoes. I have never eaten such tender squid, simply a delicious dish. So I asked if I could get a half dozen of the amuse Bosch squid to finish the meal, and they were nice enough to do that for me. Added data for my go-here-al-all-costs recommendation, although their prices are very modest, even cheap for that quality.
