Le Matahari - Lumio

This is everything that you’d want in a top class beach restaurant. The location is of course perfect but the team here maximise that advantage. The decor and table decoration are impressive but the food even more so. The maitre d’ is also charming and nothing is too much trouble. The food is elegantly presented and tastes brilliant. What’s not to love about this place… a gem.

We drove 3h from Ajaccio to visit Calvi and L'Île-Rousse. But we also want to visit the Le Matahari because it was recommend by our travel guide. And everything was fine. The service was fast and kind, the food also really fast and absolutely delicious And the Ambiente is great Its directly at the beach and you can sit on the beach and look at the Ozean while you eat a great meal. We highly recommend this restaurant without any complaints.

We'd hired a scooter to explore around and came across this absolute gem. The place is utterly amazing from the relaxed atmosphere, the decor and the friendly and helpful staff. Probably the best meal I've had. It was delicious. Cannot rate it high enough. A little piece of heaven.

We had lunch whilesunbating on the beach. Food was really amazing. We tried tuna and stirred vegatables, mint and ricotta ravioli, pasta with lemon sauce, tempura, dessert. Everything was really special. The restaurant is eco-chic style quite informal. Hugely recommenes place. Very romantic for dinner.
