One of Juan-les-Pins’ most appealing attributes is its endless ripple of beachside restaurants, all peering out over the picturesque Iles de Lérins. And Cap Riviera is undoubtedly one of this resort’s finest. Cuisine is seafood-based with a squeeze of French sophistication. Think shrimp flambéed in pastis, lemon-infused sardine rillettes, or sole meunière; staff are charming and attentive. It’s well worth popping by in advance to select your own special sea-facing table. Lunchtime diners can also indulge in a new 28€ 3-course menu, which includes rockfish soup and flash-fried tuna.
