We were delighted with our visit to this restaurant. The lady at front of house made us welcome from the start and we also enjoyed the contributions from the young gentleman who served us our wine!
We went for the five course tasting menu with three matched wines. Everything lived up to our expectations!

First of all I am extremely appalled by the behavior of the staff towards his clients.
My boyfriend and I were denied access to pass through as guest from the hotel. To me this felt really restricted, it states nowhere you can’t pass. Is it maybe because of two men, which one of color? I don’t know, but I’ve never seen this kind of behavior in my life. We were demanded to walk through dirty stones at the parking lot in our white outfits. Completely unacceptable.
There was no reasoning to be made, we were completely denied and treated like scum by this gentleman that worked there. Not needed to say we were dressed in proper attire.
I’m shocked that the Michelin institute gives a star to this establishment, where clearly not everyone is welcome.

This has to be the worst Michelin recommended restaurant I’ve ever encountered; not even just limited to starred places either, this experience ranks below all of the places I’ve tried that are even just mentioned by the guide, without any special distinction.
To start this review, let’s talk service. I booked a week in advance and gave very clear allergy requirements for the meal (both diners the same, no gluten or crustaceans). The staff had to clarify at least three times and still managed to flub it. After the hostess asked us about it, the amuses were brought with the question “which of you has the shellfish allergy?” When we again said it’s both of us, and the server points to one of the plates and says “oh don’t eat that one then” and…leaves it on the table?? With no explanation of why we can’t eat it. And when we finally flagged down the hostess to ask, it turned out to be mussels, which is a different allergy…so we could eat it after all (by then it was cold).
It’s not just about allergies though: throughout the night the service was poor. They didn’t bring a stool for my wife’s bag when we sat down, until we asked for it (other tables got one without asking). They didn’t refill our water at all until my wife picked up the bottle herself (the hostess practically sprinted over, grimacing). It didn’t get refilled again after that. They had to be asked to refill the olive oil for the (terrible) bread. This isn’t the Hard Rock Cafe, I shouldn’t have to ask for basic service and hospitality when I’m spending 350 euros on a meal.
Ok, so that obviously sucked. But at least the food was good, right? Wrong again!! There was exactly one good dish we received, it was trout with some creams and gels. I wish I could give some more color to this but that’s all I remember it being. The others were inexplicable. Rubbery overcooked octopus tentacle with a very bitter wine sauce and an even more bitter lemon cream (was it made of pith? Seriously). Lamb three ways (all bad). Both were served with undercooked braised leeks. Seared bluefin tuna with a distinct flavor of butane torch. I wish I was exaggerating but octopus and lamb are two of my wife’s favorite things to eat and neither dish was even average, they were terrible. Overall, really bad.
I would question if maybe the chef was off that night, but they sent him out to my table to ask us how everything was. I truly think it was a genuine question on his part, I really refuse to believe he (or anyone in the back of house) saw or tasted any of the food I was served. Otherwise, how did it get served to me like this?
Overall, I rate this restaurant two stars out of five possible. One star goes to the pastry chef (dessert was actually really good) and the other belongs to the Sommelier. Otherwise, the rest of the evening ranged between forgettable and regrettable but certainly not worthy of a Michelin star or even a mention in the guidebook. Save your money and dine elsewhere.
Edit: It’s like you didn’t even read my review, quite frankly. You obviously didn’t even read the allergy requirements that I wrote AGAIN into this review. I have a crustacean allergy, therefore I am not mistaken about some crustacean sauce on the octopus, you had to substite that with a horrible red wine sauce and even worse lemon cream. The bread was not a homemade foccacia, it was some horrible frozen gluten-free bread. Please don’t patronize me with your useless reply. I had the opportunity to tell the chef he was incompetent? Sorry, I wanted to leave and you made me wait for him at my table for fifteen minutes after the bill was paid. When he finally showed up, after we already stood up to leave, what was I supposed to say? Was he going to give me a refund? Probably not, so what was the point? You have the feedback now and you can’t accept it, so why would it have been different in person? Ridiculous. Amateurish experience, do better (but I don’t think you can).

Ho scelto di provare questo ristorante stellato, incuriosita dall’esperienza gastronomica che prometteva.
L’ambiente si presenta elegante e curato, con una sala accogliente e un personale gentile e attento. Nonostante la location sia inserita in un residence un po’ datato, gli sforzi di restyling con piante e dettagli d’arredo riescono a creare un’atmosfera piacevole, innovativa e raffinata.
Abbiamo optato per il percorso da cinque portate con abbinamento vini, scelta che si è rivelata interessante anche grazie ai suggerimenti competenti del sommelier, capace di proporre accostamenti sempre equilibrati. Molto gradevole l’attenzione al dettaglio con la scelta personalizzata del coltello artigianale per ogni commensale: un tocco originale che arricchisce l’esperienza.
Gli amuse-bouche hanno aperto il pasto in modo memorabile: la barchetta con caviale di yuzu è stata una vera esplosione di gusto, raffinata ed equilibrata. Delizioso anche il burro alle nocciole di Cervione e agrumi di Corsica, una piccola chicca che ha lasciato il segno.
Tra le portate, le cozze hanno sorpreso: pur non amando in genere l’accostamento con panna e formaggi, l’equilibrio dato dall’acidità del basilico le ha rese convincenti. Meno incisivo invece il prosciutto di ricciola, risultato un po’ anonimo.
Il pane e la focaccia, panificati in casa, sono stati buoni ma non all’altezza di una cucina stellata: lievitazione e cottura avrebbero meritato maggiore attenzione, trattandosi di dettagli che in un contesto simile fanno la differenza.
Molto piacevole lo sformato di pomodoro, ma senza eccellere; ottima invece la tagliatella di seppie e ancor di più la spuma ai funghi, decisa e ricca di carattere, tra i momenti più riusciti del menù.
La rana pescatrice, accompagnata da salsa alla panna e cavolo verza, non ha incontrato il mio gusto personale, forse per la mia abitudine ai sapori mediterranei più lineari e freschi: un piatto ben costruito, ma distante dalle mie preferenze.
In chiusura, il dessert: una millefoglie alle mele con ottimi pralinati e una crema di accompagnamento equilibrata, ma penalizzata da una mela eccessivamente acida. Un finale discreto, ma non del livello di brillantezza che ci si aspetta da una conclusione stellata.
In generale, l’esperienza è stata positiva e stimolante, con momenti davvero memorabili e altri meno convincenti. Un ristorante che dimostra tecnica e creatività, ma che dovrebbe curare con maggiore attenzione alcuni dettagli per mantenere lo standard che una stella richiede.

Un moment extraordinaire passé à la table du Charlie !
Cuisine qui met à l’honneur le terroir Corse, plats goûtus et accord mets-vins pertinent.
Nous avons pu profiter de la terrasse et du cadre juste fantastique de l’endroit.
L’équipe du service au petits soins et décontractée, un vrai plus dans ce genre d’établissement parfois trop sérieux….
Je recommande vivement !

Une expérience tout simplement exceptionnelle.
Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été séduits par la vue imprenable sur la baie, qui crée à elle seule une ambiance unique et mémorable.
Le chemin du repas était parfaitement pensé : chaque plat s’enchaîne avec une justesse remarquable, alliant finesse des saveurs, créativité et harmonie. On sent une véritable recherche culinaire, où rien n’est laissé au hasard.
Le service est à la hauteur du lieu : attentif, chaleureux et discret à la fois, il accompagne l’expérience sans jamais la brusquer.
En résumé, Le Charlie est bien plus qu’un restaurant : c’est une parenthèse d’exception, où tout est réuni pour un moment inoubliable.

Magnifique soirée à l’occasion de l’anniversaire de mon mari, sublimée par une vue imprenable et un coucher de soleil enchanteur.
Nous avons opté pour le menu en cinq services accompagné d’un accord mets et vins. Si certains plats nous ont davantage séduits que d’autres, c’est unanimement « la tomme » qui restera notre coup de cœur. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié la place donnée aux légumes dans les associations proposées.
Le dessert nous a semblé légèrement en retrait par rapport au reste du repas — mais il faut dire que nous sommes très exigeants sur ce point.
L’amuse-bouche à la betterave nous a également paru en deçà du niveau des plats qui ont suivi et nous avons eu l’impression qu’il était en décalage avec le reste des amuses bouches mais cela reste anecdotique.
En revanche, l’accord mets et vins était remarquablement choisi et parfaitement servi, notamment grâce à la délicate attention de nous faire goûter avant de verser le verre.
Enfin, le service, à la fois aimable et attentif, nous a permis de nous sentir chaleureusement accueillis tout au long de la soirée.
Nous vous souhaitons une très bonne continuation.
