The Best Seafood Near Solea, by the Record

Rank 1. La Marmite du Pêcheur
Seafood

Rank 2. Les Tamaris - Chez Raymond
Mediterranean Seafood

Rank 3. La Maréa
Seafood
The terrace looks straight out over La Figueirette beach and the rust-colored Estérel cliffs, which is the entire argument for sitting outside. This is a seafood restaurant with old-school roots, now run by a former fishmonger who takes the sourcing seriously. The fish arrives genuinely just-caught, the service is warm without being fussy, and the set menu covers the same ground as the carte, so you're not punished for ordering economically.

Rank 4. es/pacìo
Seafood
Picture windows frame the marina, which is either a selling point or a reminder of how much parking cost. Es/pacìo is a seafront bistro in a deliberately low-key room, built around local seasonal produce and freshly caught wild fish, with a short list of natural wines from the surrounding region. The team came up through serious kitchens and it shows in food that leans Mediterranean without being predictable about it.

Rank 5. Le Bistrot du Port
Seafood
A seafood restaurant on the old port in Golfe-Juan where the chef weaves Asian technique through Mediterranean catch, and the result is less bouillabaisse-and-rosé and more fermented-fish soy with dentex tartare. The tasting menu moves through courses like a slow dive, produce pulled from nearby water and cooked with real ambition. The signature bouillabaisse, for two, is the kind of thing the table next to you definitely ordered.
