Le Bénétin, Seaside restaurant in Saint-Malo, France
Le Bénétin is a seaside restaurant in Saint-Malo with large glass windows and wooden details positioned to take advantage of its elevated location. From inside, diners have direct views of the coastal landscape and surrounding waters.
The building was rebuilt by architect Hervé Perrin in 2010 following a fire in 2008. The reconstruction blended contemporary design with elements from the earlier structure.
The restaurant sits near the Rothéneuf Carved Rocks, where a local artist spent decades chiseling stone sculptures into the cliffs. This artistic shaping of the natural landscape defines the character of the entire area.
The restaurant sits on a hilltop with free parking available on-site and is open daily. The entrance is easy to reach, and the interior offers space for a larger group of visitors.
The chef uses ingredients from the restaurant's own garden to create dishes such as pollack tartare with lemon balm and yuzu juice. This practice connects local farming directly to the kitchen.
