Chef's Restaurant

The location and panoramic views over the bay have contributed greatly to the Reserve's success over the decades. Today, it's still a high-profile restaurant that offers this moment of refinement with the work of chef Jérôme Cotta, a regular at chic tables, who works with prestigious ingredients without getting too attached to the terroir: crispy celery langoustines and aïoli sucs de bisque, scallops in carpaccio, wild sea bass emulsion with Noilly Prat, sweetbreads lacquered with clementine and timut. DeliBo desserts, three-course menu €110.
