Fodor's Review:

In a wealthy suburb high above Fort-de-France, this antiques-filled dining room offers a truly fine-dining experience, from the professional service to the sparkling crystal stemware. The food is divine, and the young, talented chef has modernized a menu steeped in classical French tradition. The quality of meat is excellent, particularly the lamb and the hard-to-find cuts such as sweetbreads. The menu has an entire page devoted to foie gras, including an incredibly delicious portion encrusted in blue poppy seeds with red vine-leaf caramel. The prix-fixe meal can help keep costs down; check the daily offering and its price. Owner Martine Diacono, a statuesque blond, makes this a personality palace.
