Le Charlie.

Perched within the Bella Vista complex in Porticcio, Le Charlie offers a dining experience defined by its panoramic vantage point over the Gulf of Ajaccio and the Îles Sanguinaires. Under the direction of chef Richard Toix, the kitchen delivers modern, precise plates that bridge Corsican traditions with techniques honed during the chef's international travels. The menu is strictly seasonal and hyper-local, with most ingredients sourced from within a twenty-kilometer radius. Expect creative compositions like monkfish with chartreuse or pigeon paired with potimarron and capers, often finished with local brocciu cheese. The atmosphere is sophisticated yet anchored by the landscape, making the terrace—where the scent of the maquis meets the sea breeze—the primary place to be.
