What you should know about Granite.
Granite is best known for chef Tom Meyer earning a MICHELIN Star less than a year after opening the restaurant in 2021, becoming one of France's youngest MICHELIN-starred chefs while translating experience gained at renowned kitchens including Anne-Sophie Pic, Christophe Moret, and the two-MICHELIN-Star Granite at the Hôtel du Palais in Biarritz into an ingredient-driven tasting menu celebrating contemporary French cuisine with exceptional technical precision. Seasonal menus evolve continuously around meticulously sourced seafood, meats, vegetables, and artisanal products, expressing Meyer's disciplined culinary philosophy through restrained creativity, impeccable execution, and an unwavering commitment to allowing outstanding ingredients to define every course.
Pristine langoustines, line-caught fish, beautifully matured meats, and peak-season vegetables arrive elevated through crystalline sauces, delicate emulsions, refined reductions, and subtle aromatic infusions that amplify their natural character with remarkable elegance. Fresh herbs, citrus oils, fermented accents, and carefully balanced acidity create extraordinary depth while impeccably baked breads, thoughtfully composed desserts, and expertly paired wines complete a progression shaped by texture, harmony, and precision. Every plate reflects disciplined haute cuisine executed with confidence, restraint, and extraordinary attention to detail.
