I've been to Chez Auguste at least 10 times. Their poisson cru is excellent. So is the chow-mein. It is located in the heart of Avatoru, so getting there may be difficult if you are near Ohotu. It is well worth going for a change of place from your hotel or pension

This was slightly pricier than some other places we ate in Rangiroa but definitely worth it. The settin by the sea is lovely and as it wasn't very busy it was peaceful and relaxing. Food was terrific and we ate here twice, trying fresh tuna, mani mani and burgers, all of which were great. Coffee was good too.Service was friendly too. I'd definitely return. In fact I'd be tempted to stay there if I go back to Rangiroa although he rooms look quite pricey.

My husband and I ventured outside of our hotel Kia Ora for dinner here. The restaurant owners arranged transportation there and back. We had a cute table on the beach that was very romantic. We enjoyed wine, a coconut crab, and fried fish with salad. The food was wonderful. The ambience was lovely. It was nice to get out of the resort for a bit and have such a great evening. We speak very little French and they were very kind to us. If we can get back to Rangiroa, we will definitely be back for the coconut crab and the âfoie gras of the Pacific!â

Went there for dinner, the curry was really tasty, location is right by the water and from the window you can spot nurse and a couple of black tip reef sharks swimming right next to the restaurant.

Recently visited Rangiroa Atoll, population around 2,500, on a cruise ship, a tender port.Next to the tender wharf there is small area in which you can swim.Reef shoes a must.Close to where you swim is a small cafe called Chez Lili.There are ample tables and chairs, but you have to order at a small window at a small shed which is also the kitchen.So, when twenty people are trying to order, expect to wait your turn.And, l mean be extremely patient.Very few places to eat, and the cruise ship in in town.But, the good news is, the food is very good.We shared a fish burger and chips, 1500 XPF and two 500ml. Hinano Tahitian beers, XPF 600 each.The fish burger had tomato (miniscule), onion (miniscule), cheese, butter, fish (unknown) and the chips filled half the plate.Very tasty and a nice cruise stop.

The place is quite basic and more snack place than restaurant but thats absolutley alright for Rangiroa. We came there in the evening after days of eating fish on the remote Tuamotus only. The very friendly and original owner cooked two perfect steaks for us in a very gernerous size. Don't get me wrong: for sure not the best meat you will eat in your life but you are on the Tuamotus and not in Argentina. The meat gets the job done and the sides of crispy fries and very peppery cream sauce made a delicous meal for us. Sadly no salad was available due to the ever complicated logistical situation an the atolls.The homemade tarte was well done with the very limited resources on the island and very innovative with very fresh coconut (of course...) and apple compot.Prices where the most affordable ones we saw on the islands. Obelix tries his best to communicate with you also without French language knowledge and was probably the friendliest non polynesian in French Polynesia we met.We where very satisfied after our dinner and would sure go there again if we ever make it back to Rangiroa.
