La Barque

Réunion


This breezy fish restaurant, set within arm's reach of the crashing waves, is one of the best options around for a relaxed meal. The seafood dishes use what's available from the harbour, usually tuna and swordfish. Meat dishes also grace the menu. There's a lush outdoor courtyard with a tiny pool and partial ocean views.
