The restaurant at Villa Ixora offers a real epicurean experienceâ¦Everything is a delicacy to taste : a fresh tuna tartar asian style, a delicious smoked fish risotto, a parrot fish filet from the lagoon or the famous mahi mahi fresly catched in the Pacifi

Laure & Terrence were so welcoming. They accommodated our dietary requirements. All the food was delicious and in a lovely, relaxed environment. The room we stayed in was lovely with a comfy bed and tons of room. The staff on-site were so friendly and always willing to help if we needed any. Breakfast was filling, yummy and the gluten free bread was so appreciated. The excursions available were fun too with a nice lagoon for kayaking/relaxing. We loved our honeymoon here and would love to go back. Please keep in touch, Mark & Harpreet

We stopped here for lunch and boy are we glad we did! The Hawaiian Poke was amazing, as was the Power Bowl. Service was prompt, and the decore of the restaurant was noticeably well coordinated with the 'beachy' theme well fitting the setting. A car or scooter would be necessary to get here as it is quite remote, though it is a lovely stop.

The chef here absolutely knows what he is doing. Extraordinary food and presentation that looked and tasted delectable. Not directly on the water but great view of the ocean with lots of trees. Service was also the best on Bora Bora. Kudos to the owners.

We stayed in the small hotel attached to this restaurant (see other review), and enjoyed great dinners here twice during our stay. There's an extensive menu and wine list, and the food is cooked to perfection with enormous portions. The view (towards Bora Bora) is unbeatable, and almost worth a visit for that alone. As hotel guests we had priority for booking a table; when open to the public it did seem very busy with local people, so reservations are likely to be required! I'd definitely recommend this restaurant for a nice meal during your stay here.

We stopped for lunch after completing a driving circle tour of the island. Restaurant is waterfront at the Apooiti Marina just west of the airport. There is no restaurant sign on the masthead marina sign at the entrance; it is after you turn in to the property.We were the only customers at 1:30 pm and we wanted light cold dishes as the day was hot and humid. The husband and wife owners were welcoming and service was prompt. I had the raw seafood in coconut milk that was spectacularly presented in the coconut shell, see photo attached. My wife had the salad with goat cheese that was tasty. Unfortunately I found my dish to be a bit bland compared the other times that I have had it in the islands.The view of the sailboats and the islands of Tahaaâ and Bora Bora is very relaxing and we lingered after eating for an hour enjoying cold drinks. Everything in French Polynesia is expensive but by these standards the restaurant was mid priced. The Raiatea Lodge about 4 km west has similar priced, tastier fare and almost as good view particularly for the evening meal.
