Stopped here for a cup of coffee and ended up ordering ice creams and cakes. Apparently, this tiny tea-house is a family business and all the cakes are home made from local ingredients, according to traditional Corsican recipes. My children really enjoyed the ice cream and my wife found her cake delicious (a sort of tarte baked on a chestnut leaf).I only had a cup of espresso, so I can't say much about their products (I'm not a sweets fan, anyway) The furniture is quite basic and the host is very smiley and chatty (although she doesn't speak much English). Recommended for cakes addicts.

We fell out of the underground car park and needed somewhere for lunch for our party of eight. Without our guidebook, we chose the first place that appealed - and hit a winner. The staff were very friendly and flexible finding space for us together, the menu was varied including Corsican specialities, French staples and burgers. Everything was very good and at a very reasonable price - much better for the money than most of the beachside restaurants.

Traditional Corsican restaurant located at the foot of the citadel, in the most panoramic view of Corte. Shady and quiet of the fact that the cars can park in the car park of the citadel, located 200m from the restaurant.

Beautiful outdoor/indoor setting. The menu was very nice; both seafood and Charolais, among many. The fish soup was fantastic. The serving size was ample. The only this prettier than the setting were the waitresses (Is my wife reading this?). Corte is sort of bland, but this section, near the museum and the fortress, is very pleasant.

One of the items on my bucket list for Corsica (yep, I always think of the food first) was pizza. Fortunately for me, we decided to have dinner at U Passa Tempu. I got the Pasquale Paoli pizza (I think, it's been a few weeks) and requested that olives be added. They were happy to oblige this request, and the pizza that came to me was huge and delectable, and well worth a bucket list item. My S.O. got the Corsican veal stew with green olives, and it was so good, exactly as he remembered from his childhood. The owner, Martin, is super friendly and chill. The restaurant itself has spilled over into a terrace overlooking the streets and residences of Corte, and for an early summer evening, the terrace was a perfect place to wind down a day of sightseeing.

We ate two courses - pate de tete, rabbit & boar stew which with a bottle of house wine came to a very reasonable â¬43. We ate indoors win a pleasant basememt setting. The food was well cooked and the portions huge. The service was chaotic - bread forgotten, menu confused, coffee machine broken, wine undercharged on the bill - but all of this was completely forgiven by the charming staff - all of them - who looked after us. We would return.

The people running the restaurant seem like they produce some of the charcuterie and cheeses as well and we found them most helpful but little English spoken. Food was great and seemed more authentic than some of what we have experienced in Ajaccio. I guess there are not the thousands of tourists. My husband had the roast pork stuffed with figatelle which we discovered was liver sausage and it was delicious. I had a salad of Corsica which was generous and delicious and slightly different to others I have had. It's a great choice for lunch when you don't want a big meal. The owner asked if we would like our photo taken, we accepted after a lot of laughter. Good coffee too.

Out of the three nights we spent near Corte, we ate here twice, it was so good! Local produce and typically Corsican food: Terrine of wild boar, vegetable soup, vegetable and herb pasties, delicious fish, wonderful entrecote steak....all the dishes were delicious. The restaurant is an enclosed outside space, with heavy plastic sides. It was a little chilly the first evening, but electric heaters soon dispelled the chill.The staff are young, friendly and very efficient. In a party of six, we had three vegetarians and one coeliac, but all were catered for with no problem. A great place to eat and wonderful situation in the middle of Corte's citadel.

Really nice terrace that fills up quickly. Nice staff I noticed it was a team effort and actually saw servers taking plates from tables they did nit serve. The 20⬠menu was pretty good carpaccio de veal OK cannelloni sanglier copious and tasty. Trout a la brocciu was no great shakes infact pretty industrial.Sherbet good. Café gourmand excellent with loads of pastries.Problem with visa machine, long wait to pay tarnished the experience.

We went based on the reviews especially of the 16 euro menu. The food lived up to the hype with everything that we ate being very good, the wild boar stew was definitely the best thing that we had. They only serve bottled beer. The carafes of wine were good value and drinkable.

We enjoyed our dinner so much we went back for lunch the next day. Salads are massive and I was advised that the one I had chosen was too big to have as a starter so I had it the next day for lunch instead. Meat is grilled over a wood fire in the front room of the restaurant. Our côté de bÅuf was perfect. The patron works like a whirling dervish cooking and waiting tables. At a busy time you might have to wait for your food as he only has a small grill! Corsican hospitality at its best.
