The must-visit gastronomic address on the Var coast
A new season dedicated to gastronomy and exceptional hospitality.
After a notable 2025 season, the restaurant La Cigale has reopened its doors with a new menu created by chef Éric Blanc. Between market cuisine, inspirations from elsewhere, and attentive service, the establishment pursues its ambition: to offer an accessible and friendly gastronomic experience. Under the chef's direction, the establishment cultivates a rare standard: offering refined, creative, and deeply gourmet contemporary cuisine, inspired by market products and enhanced by touches of world flavors.
All while welcoming each guest with the warmth that makes the house's reputation.
Here, people do not just come to eat: they come to experience a moment. AN INSPIRED GASTRONOMIC CUISINE, BETWEEN LOCAL TERROIR AND TRAVELS Under the toque of chef Éric Blanc, trained in a demanding cuisine, dishes become a means of expression where fresh products, mastered techniques, and culinary audacity meet. The menu, renewed with the seasons and market arrivals, offers highly refined dishes, where each plate tells a story.
At lunchtime, the €20 weekly menu appeals with its exceptional value for money, while the €41 La Cigale gastronomic menu allows diners to discover the full scope of the chef's expertise. For those in a hurry, a daily special to take away (€12) extends the experience to the home. Each offering reflects a sharp sense of taste, a quest for balance, and a true passion for the product.

• The Gastronomic menu of "La Cigale" details the chef's inspiration: • Sea bass ceviche, mango and pineapple brunoise or Puy green lentil salad and pan-seared foie gras escalope. • Duck fillet with apricots or filet mignon with morels. • Rum baba: a mastered, light dessert that ends the meal gently.
• Candied chestnut ice cream (a must-have). The weekly Main Course and Dessert menus also illustrate this gastronomic signature: • Guinea fowl supreme with apples. • Chocolate moelleux.
