Restaurant U Palmentu in Centuri - Cocktail Bar
Exquisite Cuisine by a Renowned Chef
U Palmentu is a restaurant and cocktail bar located beneath the Hotel-Restaurant Le Vieux Moulin. Once a simple bar-snack establishment, featured in Gault & Millau 2022-2023, it has been transformed by Dominique Cavalli into a chic dining venue. Here, you can savor exquisite dishes prepared by David Tannevart, an accomplished chef and pastry instructor.
View Overlooking the Port of Centuri
The restaurant's terrace offers a direct view of Centuri's harbor, bathed in the glow of summer evening sunsets. You may prefer the family-friendly atmosphere of the terrace adjacent to the bar, complete with continuous service. The restaurant has 70 seats, making it a suitable venue for events, christenings, birthdays, and musical evenings.
Open for Lunch and Dinner from April to October
U Palmentu in Centuri is open from April to the end of September, for lunch and dinner, seven days a week. Reservations are advisable during peak season.

David Tannevart is a well-known figure in the worlds of cuisine and pastry. Together with his partner and pastry chef Veruska Ramirez, he co-founded Davruska Formation, an institution for training pastry chefs. The couple frequently appear in culinary articles and broadcasts, such as in the Burgundian daily Bien Public, or in this radio show France Bleu Côte d'Or.
Fish Restaurant
Focused on sea cuisine with fish exclusively sourced from local fishing: Monkfish, Grouper, Leerfish, Scorpionfish, Dentex, John Dory, Bluefin Tuna, Swordfish, Sea Bream, Red Porgy, and the famed Centuri Lobster. We also feature endemic and local products such as Bastia bottarga. Some dishes vary according to availability and seasonality; for instance, Leerfish is available from late May to late June.
