A terrific choice with a superbly prepared menu of French seafood, meat dishes and tapas. Dishes such as the braised crispy squid cannelloni, duck breast with orange sauce or French and Basque cheeseboard are showstoppingly tasty, but don't overlook the delightful postres (desserts). Vegetarians won't find themselves stranded either – the pumpkin risotto is delicious.
