Established in 1938, this restaurant in truly amazing.
“When I look at Villefranche, I see my youth, May Man never allow it to change,” said Jean Cocteau of this mythical place.
Acacia wood dining room with bay windows, redecorated like a family home with rich souvenirs or a well-paged book. One of the best addresses in a touristic area, this establishment remembers Germaine Brau, who opened the "Sea Bar" in 1938, without letting the nostalgia get maudlin. Chefs may change but it's the atmosphere and the classic Mediterranean cuisine that counts.
