Beautiful restaurant situated next to the beach, delicious food and impeccable service!

We even had a chat with the chef who told us about his background in Michelin cooking - we were so impressed! And the young man who took our order was so sweet and polite.

Overall a culinary experience we...

Je tenais à fêter mon anniversaire à „La table d’émeraude”, cet excellent restaurant situé sur la route des Sanguinaires à Ajaccio pour revivre un processus quasi alchimique de transformation des matières premières, avec à la clé, de véritables trésors dans mon assiette.

L’instinct, le dialogue avec la nature et une rare sensibilité gustative sont les mots clés de ce chef alchimiste. Une cuisine imaginée comme un poème ; une révélation des sens assurément ! Audray, Dany, Hervé et leur équipe vous ouvrent les portes de leur univers gourmand rempli de meilleurs produits de notre terroir, de conscience, d’amour et de savoir-faire.
