Great restaurant and usually busy, so best to make a reservation. The staff were very friendly, menus were also available in English, and the food was delicious. Only minor comment is that the monkfish sauce needed a little more salt, otherwise, everything was great.

We had a 3 course dinner here from the standard menu while we sat on the outdoor covered area. Without reservation there was enough space early in the evening.
Theres plenty of options to choose from and the food was very tasty. Portion size is good and we left the restaurant not being able to eat one bite more.
The restaurant offers a nice view of the port and is centrally located. Our waiter was friendly as well.

Awesome food - fresh ingredients, excellent selection, unique tastes. The terrace at the back is a calm square to sit in the sun and enjoy the experience. Good portions as well - it’s priced a bit higher but quality is worth it. Service is helpful and professional. We had a fixed menu with the Normandy chicken, as well as the linguine with burrata - both exceptional. And the mango & passion soufflé was incredible!

We ordered the menu of the week. Fantastic from beginning to end. Everything was fantastic and ticked all the boxes. We came here initially because L’scale was too unfriendly.
The woman/head served us and was so friendly and accommodating. We sat initially in back so we could sit in the sun.
Unfortunately the rain moved in and we were invited inside.
Looking forward to eating here again.

Had a lovely lunch here today. I had a avocado, shrimp and pineapple tartare as a starter. A creamy shrimp risotto as main and a merengue as dessert. The staff was very nice and the food was very delicious

SaQuaNa
Alexandre Bourdas has turned his SaQuaNa into a real social hub, open from morning to night, the idea being to make good food accessible to as many people as possible. The menu is varied, with influences from near and far (including a Japanese section), and, as ever, it boasts a number of must-tries, such as his monkfish in coconut broth and combawa oil, "our house bouillabaisse" or his emblematic pascade (oven-puffed pancake): a talented, confident and inspiring culinary showing featuring a wealth of dishes that are designed "for sharing". Depending on the time of day, SaQuaNa is also a patisserie, bakery and tearoom.

Le Bréard
A contemporary setting and subtle cuisine are on the menu at this restaurant on a narrow cobbled street near the church (Église St Catherine). Tempura oysters, aubergine caviar, a shallot and dill sauce; cod, rainbow carrots, rhubarb beurre blanc sauce; passion fruit soufflé, vanilla ice cream... Offering a choice of three tasting menus, the chef allies fine flavours with creativity and generosity!

L'Endroit
Not the kind of place you would expect to find here! Innovative loft - style interior and kitchens that open right onto the dining area. Hamburger with foie gras, rognons revisités (kidneys), superb desserts. This is the place to be.

La Fleur de Sel
In the heart of the historic district, it is a pleasure to taste Vincent Guyon’s inspired craftsmanship. The menu might feature monkfish, fried artichokes barigoule, dried tomatoes, emulsion of artichokes, stock and Brittany curry or another house signature dish: beef tartare with oysters served with mizuna, caviar vinaigrette and grilled rice. Deftly crafted and consummately cooked.

Huître Brûlée
Don’t worry, the oysters aren’t burnt - despite the establishment’s name! Updated recipes, quality ingredients, locally sourced whenever possible (organic veggies, fish from small boats), concise, seasonal menu. This friendly bolthole is run by an enthusiastic couple: local lad Paul Lacheray, in the kitchen and his partner, Chloé Woestelandt, who runs the dining room with considerable brio…

Les Impressionnistes - La Ferme Saint-Siméon
Established in the luxury Ferme Saint Siméon Hotel, a historic hamlet in the upper reaches of Honfleur, this property is the quintessence of stylish. The plush elegant Normandy-style interior, the wooded grounds and the terrace with a superb view of the Seine Estuary may be absolutely enchanting, but not enough to distract us from the matter at hand! The chef creates seasonal contemporary cuisine that draws on top-notch Normandy produce. The estate is also home to the half-timbered, thatched roof La Boucane bistro, which serves equally tasty, but more traditional cuisine.
Honfleur - FRANCE

Le Manoir des Impressionnistes
Settle in at your table, in the bright dining room or on sunny days head for the terrace to enjoy the lovely view of the estuary. Savour the modern cuisine, centred on a short and appetising seasonal menu that gives top billing to Normandy's produce from land and sea.
