An emblematic address of the French Riviera, Le Restaurant de Bacon celebrates the Mediterranean in its most authentic and refined form. Nestled between sea and pines, it offers breathtaking sea views while perpetuating a gastronomic tradition founded on freshness, simplicity and excellence. In a sleek, light-filled setting, every dish honours the fruits of the sea, elevated by the house’s savoir-faire.
Faithful to its history while looking to the future, the Restaurant de Bacon cultivates a spirit of timeless elegance. Its cuisine, both generous and precise, tells a passion for the Mediterranean terroir, carried by a committed and creative team. Whether for a lunch facing the waves or an exceptional dinner, the Maison de Bacon experience is lived as a suspended moment, between culinary tradition and the French art of living.
Since 1948, Maison de Bacon has welcomed its guests at the water’s edge, on the Cap d’Antibes. Its cuisine has always followed the sea: Mediterranean fish, shellfish and the great recipes of the coast. Since 2021, chef Nicolas Davouze, Bocuse d’Or France, has led the kitchen. He keeps this heritage and adds the precision of fine dining: the produce stays at the centre of the plate, with precise cooking and light sauces.
The menu follows the daily catch: “we depend on the mood of the sea”. Depending on the catch, you choose a red porgy, gilt-head bream, sea bass, John Dory, dentex, sole or turbot. These fine fish are grilled over a wood fire and charged by weight. They are served with a side dish of your choice: market vegetable cocotte, basil mousseline purée or wild rice. The sea bass baked in a crust, a house speciality, is for two people or more.
The dining room opens onto the Mediterranean. The view takes in the Baie des Anges and Old Antibes. At lunch, daylight shines on the sea; at dinner, the coast lights up little by little. It is a sought-after setting for a family meal, a dinner for two or an occasion to celebrate. On summer evenings, the Roof Top adds the sunset, cocktails and music.
The Tradition Bacon menu brings together the recipes that made the house famous: rockfish soup, spiny lobster ravioli cooked in their own stock, and bouillabaisse. The bouillabaisse has its own page: discover our bouillabaisse in Antibes. For details of dishes and prices, see the restaurant menu. At lunchtime, the L’Esprit du Midi menu offers another way to discover the chef’s cuisine.
Lunch is served from 12pm to 2pm and dinner from 7pm to 10pm. The restaurant is open Tuesday to Sunday in March, every day from April to September and Wednesday to Sunday from October to December. It is closed in January and February.
Maison de Bacon is at 664 boulevard de Bacon, on the Cap d’Antibes, and a valet service welcomes guests. Book your table online or by phone on +33 4 93 61 50 02. All access details are on this page: contact.
Maison de Bacon has been a seafront address on the Cap d’Antibes since 1948. Chef Nicolas Davouze, Bocuse d’Or France, cooks Mediterranean fish from the daily catch: grilled over a wood fire, baked in a crust or in a bouillabaisse. The restaurant faces the Baie des Anges, for lunch or dinner by the water.
The fish change with the day’s catch. The menu includes red porgy, gilt-head bream, sea bass, John Dory, dentex, sole, turbot and scorpionfish cooked grand-mère style. For shellfish, there is grilled spiny lobster and blue lobster. In the dining room, our team will tell you which fish arrived that morning.
Our finest fish are grilled over a wood fire and usually served whole. They are charged by weight: the menu gives the price per 100 grams, gross weight. You choose your side dish: market vegetable cocotte, basil mousseline purée or wild rice. In the dining room, we will advise you on the size of fish for the number of guests.
