We decided to make a quick day trip from San Sebastián to Biarritz because we wanted to cross the…read moreborder to France and we had heard about saint jean de luz and Biarritz from a local. It was the best decision we made because of this restaurant. We sat close to St. Eugene's cathedral to figure out where to eat lunch and came across several michelin starred restaurants and we decided to walk into this one. It was SUPERB! We are all about fine dining and this place was small, cozy, with amazing customer service and let me just get started with the food already... Btw, if you're thinking price, 27 Euro for a michelin star restaurant lunch menu was NOTHING, especially for the quality and experience of this place. If you had to choose, I'd say for two, each should choose different dishes to try most of the menu. The foie gras, raviole, the Cochon (pork), risotto with mushrooms, the French toast and the vacherin. All of them to die for! A MUST if you're going to Biarritz.

SO MUCH SEAFOOD! At…read moresuch a reasonable price. Great service, awesome casual atmosphere. We had oysters, sea snails, gambas (prawns), razor clams, and kokotxas (hake chin). All fresh and fantastic. The hake chin alone blew my mind. So good. If I just had a big bowl of them for every meal I would forever be happy. The razor clams were also up there on the 'wow' factor but honestly everything was so good. It was our first night in Biarritz after 6 night in Paris of eating really great food and I gotta say this might be the best food we ate for the price at 40 Euro for the whole spread.

Chez Robert Rabagny, passionné de surf, la décoration est au diapason de ce noble sport, au plafond, des planches dont certaines d'une valeur inestimable, et aux murs, des naïades. Bonheur aussi pour les papilles car déjeuner ou dîner, dans ce cadre insolite, c'est faire le plein d'iode avec une cuisine de poissons. Sur l'ardoise ou sur la carte, beaucoup de poissons donc, des huîtres, des fruits de mer (de Pâques à septembre) mais aussi un fameux confit de canard ou une côte de boeuf.

The service was prompt, aware of our needs (cutlery was switched out, bread basket topped off, water refilled), but also unobtrusive. Absolutely hats off to the chef - what a gem this restaurant is.
