The story
At the edge of the sea, within the elegant Les Roches Rouges hotel in Saint-Raphaël, Récif offers a dining experience that earned a Michelin star in 2026. The restaurant's modern cuisine draws inspiration from the Provençal and Mediterranean landscape, with dishes that reflect the region's abundance.
The setting is quintessentially coastal: terraces suspended over the water, a view of the Île d'Or, and the scent of pine trees. The atmosphere is relaxed yet refined, a place where the art of living in the South of France takes center stage. The kitchen focuses on bright, seasonal ingredients—fish from the local market, vegetables from the sun-drenched earth—prepared with precision and restraint.
Récif is part of a larger gastronomic offering at Les Roches Rouges, which includes casual dining at La Chicoula and the intimate Le Ponton. But it is here, in this dedicated space, that the chef's vision of modern cuisine finds its fullest expression. The Michelin star affirms the high quality of cooking—a recognition of both technique and a deep respect for the terroir.
Whether for lunch or dinner, Récif invites guests to linger over a meal that feels both special and effortless, anchored by the rhythm of the Mediterranean.
