Things to do in Deshaies
1. La Savane
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 755 reviews
Reviewed By TravlJini - Ann Arbor, MI
By far, the best meal we ate while in all of Guadeloupe. From start to finish, our tastebuds were rewarded. We started with Rillettes de poissons caraïbes maison à la moutarde à l'ancienne and Emincé de chatrou, huile d'olive, ail et persil. I took the waiter's recommendation and ordered the Tataki de thazard,émulsion au wasabi, which was cooked to perfection, slightly tartare, and the wasabi was like mousse. TO top it off, the dessert is something I will never forget: Soufflé glacé au rhum et raisins. I will dream of that dessert forever more. Do make Reservations if you'd like to sit next to the sea.

We had lunch at this beach spot during our stay on Guadeloupe and enjoyed it so much! The restaurant is casual but charming with pretty tablecloths and matching napkins. The menu is extensive. We were sadly in a hurry so chose salads. But what salads they were! So large and fresh and absolutely delicious. Mine had shrimp that were perfectly cooked and seasoned. This is a busy spot but don’t fret, because the woman in charge works tirelessly to get people seated and enjoying the great food. She was so lovely! The price was excellent, too. This is a real find!
3. La Paillote de la Perle

The parking lot was full when we arrived at the beautiful La Plage de la Perle and we were directed to an overflow area behind the building. After walking down the beach and perusing the various options, we chose La Paillote and we are delighted we did. It was obvious there were lots of regulars, who jumped up to help the staff clear tables, bring placemats, and deliver wine. Big tables of friends who knew each other.
What really bonded everyone there was that a couple going to the beach blocked the access point to the back parking area. When people tried to drive out, they got stuck in the sand so the men (many of whom looked like accomplished professionals and businessmen) would jump up and push them out. One very well-dressed (for the beach) gentleman placed the restaurant's sign in the alternate parking spot and stopped people from parking there so the group could push out the next car that wanted to leave. It was a very funny scene.
The timing for lunch was quite leisurely but as it was a beautiful spot and we had the aforementioned entertainment, we didn't mind. The ubiquitous accras were delicious but the highlight was the grilled redfish which was superb (crispy skin and moist flesh). It was served over court bullion and topped with chopped vegetables with a side of red beans and rice plus white rice. Delicious and expertly prepared. We finished with ice cream.
We stuck around the beach, went swimming in the lovely cove, and were able to retrieve our car after the offending parkers left. (By that time the parking support team had also left the restaurant for the beach). Overall, a wonderful experience all around.

I'll start with the positive: extremely convenient if you're staying at Caraib Bay across the road (you can also get take-out) and exceedingly nice owner. That's it.
The food itself was extremely disappointing and clearly overpriced. You'll have far better options for lunch close to the beach and in and around Deshaies for dinner. Would not recommend except in case there are no other alternatives available.

I ate here several times with my wife over a week and recommend the following every time: carpaccio of marlin (EUR 15), all pizzas - ask for bien cuit (well done) - marlin steak, spicy shrimp. The word is consistent! ask for spicy sauce with all dishes.
6. Kote Lagon

Reviewed By Katemakesfilms - Leeds, United Kingdom
I stopped here for lunch by chance after a morning on the beautiful Grande Anse beach. The Terrace sits right on the lagoon amidst lush tropical vegetation, and the view is stunning. The staff and owner were very friendly and I went for the tasty fish rillettes, and creole smoked chicken (Poulet boucané) for a main, all washed down with the best planter's punch I've ever tasted. This has become a regular haunt for me - it's family friendly, welcoming and a home from home.
7. Paradise Kafe
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 469 reviews
Restaurant situé dans le bourg de Deshaies proche du port de pèche et face a la baie. Le paradise Kafé est accessible par la plage ou depuis la rue, ou, il vous suffit d'emprunter "l'énigmatique couloir" et au bout, vous tomberez sur un décor qui vous dépaysera. L'esprit du Paradise Kafé est : Famille, échanges, rencontres, convivialité, partage de compétences et mise en avant de réseaux, le tout autour d'un bon repas qur vous aurez choisis dans la carte présentée par Jean-Mi qui a toujours plaisir a accueillir (on dirait que c'est dans sa nature ;-) ) et cuisiné "fait maison" par Anne Patronne et chef en même temps ;-). Alors vous l'aurez compris ... Le paradise kafé est le lieu idéal dans Deshaies pour les locaux ou les touristes qui cherchent à se poser seul, en famille ou entre amis (d'ou les grandes tablées) pour décompresser et passer de bons moments face a un magnifique de soleil. Alors à bientot ou a pistache ;-)

Having experienced overpriced and under delivered beach bar meals we were pleasantly surprised with our meal at Cacao Cafe. As another reviewer mentioned this is a place that attracts locals in the know. The local gendarme were clearly enjoying their lunch. We ordered beers to start, chicken kabobs with salad and pomme frites, accompanied by a half liter of their house rose, which was perfect with the meal. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. With my "translate" app, was able to ask to have the fries extra crispy. Will return while vacationing in Deshaies.

Choose fruits and the Breizhilienne mix your juice, milkshake or smoothie in front of you! All vitamin requirements of the day in one glass! With Guadeloupe fruit ! See you soon !
Reviewed By Stephen D - Hopewell, New Jersey
The guy in front of this place is the husband of the woman in the truck so I am including him in this review. He sells the best coconut ice cream ever! My wife loves this dessert more than anything and she rates it the highest and had to have it every day! Great flavor but not overwhelming and very light and creamy. Try it. He also sells ChiChis which seem to be the same thing as Churros.
10. Le Poisson Rouge
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 253 reviews
The red fish is the symbol of this home and the name of the gastronomic restaurant of Tendacayou but also of Guadeloupe. Sylvie, mistress of the house as well as being a cordon-bleu, created 13 years ago this restaurant who has become along the years THE reference in gastromic cooking. Her credo : simplicity, numerous flavours, freshness Her success : Knowledge and creativity Her tools : Combining fresh, local,seasonal and very often biological products to her large range of revisited classic cooking. Handing over, little by little her kitchen to young talents she has now given the lead to the new chef !
