The story
Comète is a townhouse on the Emerald Coast in Saint-Lunaire, a short walk from the Grande Plage and the GR34 coastal path. Here, Angélina and Victor – both veterans of hospitality in France and abroad – have created a place that feels like a natural extension of the landscape. Their idea was simple: a living space where they could share their taste for good things, open all day.
The restaurant and its inner terrace welcome guests from morning to evening: breakfast, lunch, afternoon snacks, and dinner. The kitchen works in modern cuisine, drawing on the owners’ experience and the rhythms of the coast. From 2026, Comète will be open Monday through Friday and on public holidays, offering a continuous, unhurried service.
This approach, grounded in simplicity and a genuine connection to place, earned Comète a Michelin Recommended distinction for 2026 – a quiet nod to the quality of what Angélina and Victor are building. The recognition feels earned: here, modern cuisine is not about fuss but about letting the ingredients and the setting speak.
Beyond the dining room, Comète also offers three guest rooms (two are studios), ideal for those who want to linger. The house can be rented in its entirety for private events or family gatherings. But the heart of the place remains the restaurant, where every moment of the day finds its place.

History
Located a seashell’s throw away from the Saint-Lunaire beach, Comète is lighting up the coastal Armorican food-o-sphere! The duo responsible for this feat? A young couple from Rennes, who got their hands on this elegant townhouse (light hardwood floors, vintage furniture, a covered terrace) and installed a few B&B bedrooms upstairs and a nice bistro on the ground floor. Inside, Angélina Huriaux watches over the immaculate dining room, while Victor Nicolas (who trained under Christophe Pelé at Le Clarence in Paris) stitches together stunning surf ’n’ turf dishes from the open kitchen. Ordered à la carte the night we went: radiant spider crab meat wrapped in big smoked cabbage leaves and sprinkled with puffed rice – or flash-seared squid paired with ultra-flavorful tomatoes, both surrounded by mozzarella whey; lovely pan-fried gilt-head bream with al dente haricots verts, crisp corn and thin slices of pattypan squash – or a superb John Dory with a generous serving of gnocchi and a red kuri squash and tarragon compote; before a delightful, deconstructed pavlova combining geranium-infused plums, meringue and a vanilla cream – unless you opt for the comforting poached pear topped with bugne beignets and chocolate sauce! The titillating lunch menu served during the week is also worth exploring (eg.: spaghetti squash, clams, goat cheese faisselle; line-caught sargo, spinach and red kuri squash gnocchi; pear compote, crumble), as is the no-less impressive breakfast for those sleeping upstairs. // Sophie Lecerf
