Excellence in French Art de Vivre

Best restaurant in St Lucia

We almost missed that this restaurant existed, but luckily it caught my eye when driving past. So glad I did, as it was the best food we had in St Lucia (and we ate at Ladera, Rabot, Anse Chastanet etc). It was a genuine fine dining experience – complete with fantastic service, lots of extra little courses thrown in, delicious wine and above all, outstanding food. I am vegan and despite the menu looking like it didn’t cater for vegans, they went out of their way to accommodate me. The chef came over and ran through all the options I could have, and when I opted for the mushroom risotto, some extra tempura mushrooms appeared as well – all of which tasted divine. At the end I asked for the recipe for the coconut sorbet and the chef came out and wrote it down for me and explained the recipe step by step! My daughter who had the children’s menu was delighted to be presented with a huge bag of sweets at the end! All in all, it was of the standard of a Michelin starred restaurant and complete with extremely welcoming friendly staff. Even if you just go for lunch before your flight, I guarantee you won’t regret it.

Excellent service and dining experience

Due to an earlier appointment finishing early, we were early at the restaurant, we were shown a comfortable seating area that overlooked the airport. The Croissants, coffee, and other offerings were very fresh and delicious. There was a good selection for lunch with all the food prepared fresh in the open plan kitchen, with a vast selection of fine wines.

Highly recommend.

We stopped for dinner and the atmosphere was cosy. The food was amazing; the presentation and taste was 10/10. Servers were very friendly and attentive. The wine selection was impressive. It’s a pity I found this place so late in my trip but 100% recommend and will be coming back next trip!

A food lovers must stop

Hands down the best restaurant on the island. This was a girls trip and we all are foodies. We stayed at a resort in the north of the island and were hesitant to drive to south just for dinner. It was well worth it. The ambiance was amazing. The food was to outstanding. The chef is from France and we had the pleasure of meeting him. If you go to St Lucia make this a must stop. Apparently the restaurant was just awarded top 21 best in the world by Natl Geographic, which doesn’t surprise me. Congrats to Artisan. I will see you again in June.

I booked this restaurant for our 30th Wedding Anniversary for a special meal out whilst on holiday in St Lucia. Booking online was easy and pre dining communications were excellent. The events team had decorated our table beautifully and there was even an anniversary congratulations card on the table. We booked a 4 course tasting menu and the food was exemplary in every course including a couple of extra amuse bouche courses The interior is a modern chic design and you are made to feel welcome at once The wine list was extensive and the staff extremely thoughtful friendly and courteous. The French sommelier was very helpful. The location is unusual, overlooking the runway, a bit like dining in the first class lounge at the airport. If you’re looking for Michelin star standard dining in St Lucia, you will be pleased that you found it here.

Well worth a visit

Superb high end wines and amazing food. This is the perfect place to unwind before flying home, great food good family run atmosphere – loved it

We went to Chef’s Counter for our last night in St. Lucia and what a treat it was! We did the Tasting with wine pairing – they even customized it to our likes. The food was just fantastic and we even had our own space in a separate room where they keep their wines. Sophie was a delight to talk to and so appreciative – we brought brochures back to our villa to encourage others to visit. Highly recommend!!!
