La Terrasse du Fesch

Perched on the rooftop of a hotel, this place delivers a stunning view of Ajaccio, the bay and the surrounding mountains. Thanks to modular wall sections, panels can be opened and closed at will, depending on the weather. In the open kitchen, chef Franck Radiu can be seen working hard to a soundtrack of electronic music. A local man, and a pastry chef by training, he serves up a well-paced meal that makes the most of the riches of Corsica's terroir. On this occasion: a spider crab cannelloni, with a twist in the form of grapefruit supremes; sea bream on potato patties topped with a delicious bouillabaisse jus, and a trompe-l'œil lemon in a delicate white chocolate shell – a light, citrus dessert.

Le Petit Restaurant

In the heart of historic Ajaccio, this restaurant may be small by name, but it thinks big! Seasoned chef Vincent Boucher crafts a repertory that extends far beyond the Mediterranean with the overriding goal of creating modern dishes with a dash of creativity and the odd exotic tribute. On the menu you may find a 65° boiled egg, gently sautéed onions and local charcuterie; low temperature poultry breast, seasonal veggies, velvety mash and a gutsy gravy; fleur de sel crumble, sorbet flavoured with verbena from the garden, foamy mascarpone and a light dusting of fig leaves and Corsican strawberries. Kristel Paries bends over backwards to pamper guests in the dining room, making sure they enjoy every moment of their meal.

L'Écrin

This endearing restaurant, slightly off the historic town’s crowded tourist track, offers fresh, seasonal, expertly crafted Mediterranean cuisine, such as brandade of forkbeard fish, bottarga and a peppery piquillo cream. The dinky terrace is invariably taken by storm in summertime. Infectiously cosy welcome. A genuine bijou of an eatery.

A Nepita

English born chef Simon Andrews, a former Michelin star holder, fell head over heels with Corsica. He goes to the market every day to painstakingly select local ingredients, which he then meticulously crafts: red tuna, denti, seabass, brocciu, veal, etc. Some of his signature dishes are always on the menu, such as grilled squid or his medley of local fish, to the delight of regulars and tourists alike. The chef also enjoys scattering his dishes with wild marjoram (“nepita”, after which the restaurant is named). The cheerful front-of-house service is managed by Simon’s wife, Corsican born Roberta.
