L'Atelier Gourmand
TripAdvisor's top-ranked restaurant in Port Mathurin, serving French and Rodriguan fusion dishes made with produce from the island's farms and fisheries.
Located on the second floor of a building in Port Mathurin city centre, on François Legat Street, with about 40 seats. It specializes in a fusion of French and Rodriguan flavors and emphasizes that its ingredients come directly from producers on the island. Signature dishes include a raw meat carpaccio trio, beef tartare, braised ham and pizza. For dessert, you can order Rodriguan pie with vanilla ice cream. The wine list and cigar selection are also good. Prices are high by local standards, so book dinner in advance. The restaurant is upstairs, so guests with mobility issues should check ahead.
Opening hours
Mon–Sat 11:30–14:30 and 18:30–21:30; closed Sundays (check the official Facebook page)
