Restaurant in Zonza
Built at the beginning of the last century on the main street in Zonza, the hotel-restaurant l'Aiglon has seen generations come and go in this very touristy village in the Alta Rocca, close to both Porto Vecchio and Solenzara.
Francescu Quilichini ensures the comfort of his guests every day. Open from April to October, the restaurant offers reinvented Corsican cuisine, featuring local produce such as chestnuts, pulenta, brocciu fritters, Corsican veal and award-winning wines.
