Fodor's Review:
High style characterizes this formal oceanfront restaurant -- stark white geometric architecture patterned after sails, frosted-glass tables lit from below, stunning luminescent cast-glass tableware, and weighty custom-made silver with finials cast from a shell found on the adjacent beach. The fantastical decor and pampering service provide a lovely backdrop for chef Maurice Leduc's sumptuous inventions. The tomato tart is a light and tasty starter. Fish and meat main courses are generously garnished with housemade pasta and vegetable side dishes. Be sure to save room for the gorgeous desserts garnished with painted streaks of fruit sauce -- served on glass plates on the lighted glass table they look like paintings. If you are lucky, you will be serenaded by a first-rate classical pianist. For special occasions, a chef's table next to the open kitchen or multicourse sampler menus are memorable splurges. Altamer is also open for breakfast.
