1. La Table du Mareyeur
$$$$ | |Ewan and Caroline Scutcher haven’t left Port Grimaud since they married here nearly 36 years ago and set up this waterside gem, now considered one of the Riviera's finest restaurants. In a fun and relaxed atmosphere, they offer the freshest fish and seafood on the coast; certainly the politicians, royalty, and film stars (think Leonardo DiCaprio) who dine portside here among the locals don't complain. Selection is simple, uncomplicated, and the lunch menu—served on market days, Thursday and Sunday between mid-June and mid-September—is a deal at €26 with wine and coffee included. Avoid traffic and ask Le Table to arrange for a water taxi when you make a reservation.
10–11 pl. des Artisans, Port Grimaud, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, 83315, France04–94–56–06–77Known For
- Meaty oysters perfect for slurping
- Summertime lunch menu that's quite a deal
- Celebrity spotting

2. Astoux et Cie Brun
$$$ | La Croisette |A beacon to all fish lovers since 1953, Astoux et Cie Brun deserves its reputation for impeccably fresh fruits de mer. Well-trained staffers negotiate cramped quarters to lay down heaping seafood platters, shrimp casseroles, and piles of oysters shucked to order. Open 365 days a year with nonstop service, it is noisy, cheerful, and always busy (so don't expect rapid service). Arrive early (noon for lunch, 6 pm for dinner) to get a table and avoid a line.
27 rue Félix Faure, Cannes, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, 06400, France04–93–39–21–87Known For
- Legendary address open 365 days a year
- Noisy, cheerful atmosphere
- Arrive early or be prepared for long lines

3. Le Boucanier
$$$ | |Years ago, former French pro soccer player Wilfrid Gohel teamed up with Eric Chaumier, president of the regional retailers union, and took over this waterfront favorite. They could have just banked on the wraparound views of the marina and château to bring in the dinner crowds, but instead they refined the menu to include grilled bass with smoked salt petals and salmon marinated with pure malt whiskey and sautéed with matcha tea velouté sauce.
273 av. Henry Clews, Mandelieu-la-Napoule, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, 06210, France04–93–49–80–51Known For
- Good-value €49 three-course menu
- Incredible views
- Vegan, pasta, and kids' options

4. Le Girelier
$$$$ | |Fish, fish, and more fish—sea bass, salmon, sole, sardines, monkfish, lobster, and crayfish all fill the boats that pull into the Old Port and find their way onto the menu here. Although grilled seafood (with a little thyme and perhaps a whisper of olive oil and garlic) is the order of the day, this is also a stronghold for bouillabaisse. The clientele is buffed and bronzed, but the servers tend to treat everyone like tourists. The lunch plat du jour (€21) is a bargain in this town; otherwise, mind the check: you'll be surprised just how expensive fish per 100g can be.
Quai Jean-Jaurès, St-Tropez, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, 83990, France04–94–97–03–87Known For
- Fabulous views of Vieux Port yachts
- Seafood priced by weight (which gets expensive)
- Reasonably priced wine list and lunch menu

5. Le Pacha du Sloop
$$$ | |Catering to the yachting crowd, this established portside restaurant has outdoor tables surrounding a tiny "garden" of potted palms. The focus is on fish, of course—soupe de poisson (fish soup), St-Pierre (John Dory) steamed with asparagus, and roasted whole sea bass.
Port de St-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, St-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, 06230, France04–93–01–48–63Known For
- Long-running portside eatery
- Terrace views of yachts
- Good value for Cap Ferrat
