Inventive cuisine is based on local product

Reviewed By RaifFiennes

Service was excellent and the ambiance (we went in the evening) was wonderful. The food was quite good. The only thing that could use a bit of work is the cocktails and wine list.

Le Metis Cafe

Reviewed By Annie S

We walked past this café several times before deciding to book a table based on Trip Advisor reviews. We had a friendly reception from the staff and the menu was appealing and a little 'different'. Le Metis calls itself a café and, as the name implies, it has a casual but lively atmosphere compared to a more 'traditional' restaurant. I must admit the rather garish brightly coloured interior had initially put us off going there, but maybe that's a sign of our age! It is obviously very popular, especially with tourists and has live music, I believe, on some evenings. I chose one of the 'specials' from the board which was a huge seafood brochette. It was very tasty but I struggled to finish it. My partner had the risotto. We both had a kir aperitif and white wine from Provence to accompany our meal. After our main course we were very full and could only manage a mango sorbet for dessert.The prices were averagely expensive but good value for the quality of the food.

Le Zagaya

Reviewed By Annie S

We came upon this restaurant whilst walking around Saint Francois. It was fully booked that evening and the following one but we secured a table for dinner two days ahead. So advance booking recommended!Le Zagaya is situated right on the waterfront so that you feel you are virtually on it, particularly if you succeed in getting a table right at the front. The restaurant is fairly small and there is plenty of space between the tables so you don't feel packed in. The staff are very friendly and helpful and the atmosphere inside the restaurant is very relaxing. Most dishes have a Creole twist to them and the seafood is fresh and highly recommended, particularly the blanquette de la mer with coconut milk and linguine which is delicious! There is a good choice of desserts and I particularly enjoyed the house creme brûlée. The banana flambé gateau also looked good. To sum up: Great ambience and good quality food at moderate prices.

L'autre Version

Reviewed By Barrett

It began with a whipped black olive pate and the most delicious bread roll! Then on to a salad with slices of lobster. Then the entrecote served with a Bearnaise sauce that literally melted as soon as it touched the steak. A glass of light white wine and finished with crepes Suzette! No wonder they call it the best restaurant in Guadeloupe!

I. Pates

Reviewed By IvanFrankenhuyzen

It is one of those places that doesn't pretend and meanwhile serves authentic great food made with love and craft, care and attention. A homely place with comforting ravioli's and burrata's. You have got to love this Italian gem amidst all the French -fish serving- restaurants. Great for lunch (and a biological wine).

l'Otentik

Reviewed By Gardensalot

This restaurant is along the drive that leads to the beach at Grande Anse. It features a creative, high-end menu and excellent cocktails. We’ve had several good meals here, usually consisting of fish or crayfish prepared in a variety of ways. I’m not a huge fan of accra, but the ones made here are excellent. Most of the staff is quite pleasant and very efficient. (We did run into one outlier who barked at us about our imperfect French, but even she mellowed out eventually.)We’ve eaten both lunch and dinner here and the place is always packed — so come early, or make a reservation.

Orchidea

Reviewed By DaveY818

Its clear if you appreciate the common down to earth cuisine, you may want to think twice, but personally i found this restaurant delightful. The fixed menu i found full of surprises, with successful marriages between different textures, local products and excellent service. The suggestions for accompanying wine hit spot on. Excellent table for Guadeloupe.

Pam

Reviewed By ClericJPreston

Believe the reviews. After several days of having lovely seafront foods in Deshaies(and paying an absolute fortune) we decided to get a cheap takeaway pizza. After reading reviews, we sort PAM out. The most friendliest, laid back ‘shack’ I’ve ever been to. Don’t be put off or intimidated by its exterior or ‘locals only’ appearance.Whilst they cooked our pizzas we sat and had a beer- relaxing in an environment with locals and a few non locals, just so non pretentious it was refreshing.The pizzas were stunning and the best value food in the area.Only downside was they didn’t have chillis as a topping(I’m a heat freak)... no problem, when we returned two days later I brought my own- to which they happily chopped up and cooked it on my Napolitaine pizza!!! Amazing

Cherry's Pizza au Feu de Bois

Reviewed By meander127

Don't think Cherry's is just for pizza- we had one of our best steak and fish dinners here. They cook the steak on a stone, and it sizzles throughout the meal. The steak came with 4 sauces- a mushroom reduction, an aoili sauce, au jus and a curry sauce. So delicious! Excellent deserts. Highly recommend!

La Playa

Reviewed By alexp8888

The service was very bad with the waiters pushing for us to order and not being very helpful or patient. The lobster was overcooked. The steak was raw, we asked to cook again and they served it hard as a shoe and then they blamed it on us.Good morning,I am the manager and chef of the restaurant, I have no knowledge or recollection of such a situation or problem as you describe it. Are you sure it's all in my restaurant?cordially
