True to its name (The Beautiful Shore), Le Beau Rivage has an enviable location on the seafront, beside the church ruins in Champ-Borne. That said, the dining room is overly dull; ask for a table near the windows. The cuisine is predominantly Chinese and Creole. Its good-value lunch buffet (€20) served on Sunday is very popular with Réunionnais families.
