Table of six. Very nice atmosphere. First course included burrata salad and escargots. Portions for the first course was larger than expected. The salad was very good. The escargots was good but could use a little more garlic (it was presented in white wine cream sauce). Others had mushroom ravioli and a smoked fish dish which they liked.Second course included a fillet with a cream wine sauce that came with sides of cheese potato and steamed vegetables. Another second course meal was a strip steak covered in a wine cream sauce accompanied by a half bone of marrow. Very decadent. The second course was also too much food with having the first course.We shared the trio creme brulee (vanilla, chocolate and pistachio) and bananas foster (which was accompanied by french toast.Along with five bottles of wine and after dinner drinks, the tab came to a little over $200 per couple which we thought was a good deal. Loved this place.

cuisine fine Française et d'ailleurs mais bistronomique. Espace cosy et décoré avec soin. En plein centre ville de Papeete.

We spent 3 days in Papeete, before embarking on a cruise, and fortunately decided to venture beyond our hotel's predictably fine but expensive restaurants. We had heard about this establishment, and when we visited, we were delighted with this outstanding selection! The food, the service, and the crisp white tablecloth ambience was as good as you will find in any world class restaurant.But be warned, it is a very small restaurant with only about 6 tables, and it is EXTREMELY popular with locals, so bookings are essential.We chose the Degustation menu where each course was wisely sized (so we didn't end up "stuffed"), and delicious!! The a love, always carte menu selections are sensibly limited, which ensures that everything offered if fresh and delicious. Our bill approximated 10000 Pacific Francs pp, which while perhaps approaching top dollar for Papeete, converts to a reasonable amount by international standards, and well below what one would pay for comparable fine dining in Paris.We would joyfully return in a flash, and highly recommend this restaurant to any visitor!

Excellent food, fresh from the market and practical location where you can easily park. Walking distance from the Meridien Hotel. They do great eggs benedict, the best ones in Tahiti....fresh seafood including fresh local shrimps cooked with a fresh ginger sauce.Good coffee and the dessert menu is great too if you have a sweet tooth.

After two weeks of tuna with vanilla sauce and rice in FP, this was a wonderful find in the marina. Largely French influenced Italian ( which makes no sense!) really good food, large portions, easily shared in a lovely ambiance amongst the docked boats. We had beef carpaccio which was the best of our trip and crusted mahi mahi. I was skeptical of Italian in FP, would recommend and return, as there was a large selection of enticing menu items to try!

We are staying in the hotel so dined here at the restaurant. The staff were very friendly and helpful. More expensive menu than the bar Restaurant. Food was warm but limited selection. Best part of Le carre was the staff. Everything is done on island time so donât expect things to be done quickly Ia ora na and thank you for sharing your wonderful experience at Tahiti Ia Ora Beach Resort.

Nice Gluten free choices and excellent hot GF rolls with dinner. I had the vegetables risotto and my wife had the salmon. We enjoyed both dishes a great deal. Good service. The only negative is outside they do allow smokers so try to get upwind if there are any. Prices very typical for Tahiti but reasonable considering the food quality and that they include tip and tax.

Reviewed By johnhK7848OX
We enjoyed the food so much we went back for a second dinner several weeks later. Both times I had the seafood gratinée which had lots of seafood in a delicious sauce. The wine list is good but as everywhere expensive. There is a good selection of desserts and we enjoy the ones we tried. The server both times with a very friendly, gracious Tahitian woman. Worth driving out from Papeete for.Hello, we thank you for your opinion and are glad that you were satisfied with your visit to our establishment. We hope you had a good holiday in French Polynesia and it is with pleasure that we will welcome you again; Cordially.

Reviewed By roeslers
Everything about this experience was perfect. The view, the garden, the quiet ambience---but especially the food. One of the best meals of our lives. From the amusee bouche to the very end, the food was simply exquisite. Be forewarned, the prices are not inexpensive; nearly every plate (appetizer, dessert, drinks etc) was $25. But they give a lot of value, a lot of freebies, and some of the best food I've ever put between my lips. We have often eaten at Bazaar in L.A. and Restaurant Eve in Washington DC, and this place reminded us of those two---in some cases even kicked the bar up a notch, especially with their exquisite little ending dessert sampler (the Rhum Babas were simply unbelievable). Inventive, creative, masters of their craft. Expensive but well worth it---this is memorable and not to be missed. A classic, with exquisite service as well as an exquisite view. One of my favorite restaurants IN THE WORLD. Make reservations!
