Fodor's Expert Review Chez Les Pecheurs

$$ Martinique Casual

Editor's Note: This location is reported to be under new ownership and therefore this review may contain inaccuracies.

At the sign of the billfish, you'll find the kind of beach restaurant you search for but seldom find, a "feet-in-the-sand" spot opened by a real fisherman. Come for the fisherman's platter, literally the catch of the day (which could be loup de mer, flying fish, marlin, even sea bass or tuna) with a flavorful red sauce, ripe tomatoes, perfect red beans and rice, and lentil salad (though not all the fish these days is fresh, and the cutlery may be plastic). Grilled crayfish is usually available Thursday through Saturday. Bottles of Neisson rum are plunked in front of a table of the convivial groups of diners here. Don't be surprised if you are told to share a table. Service, mostly pleasant, slows when 30 people sit down. However, not all customers are leaving happy now. Fridays are the big nights, when local bands play and everyone dances on the sand.
