We were only able to book ( a month in advance) for lunch but what a treat! There are only 2 choices: the 68 euro or 108 euro lunch, both people at the table must have the same. This suited us perfectly but could be problematic for others (we aren't large eaters so we chose the smaller menu). The starters... More

This is one of the best restaurants in Normandy... Attention to detail is second to none. Truly a wonderful gourmand experience.

We were able to get a reservation at Sa-Qua-Na. What a treat! The little snacks with our aperitifs were superb, especially the salmon tartar. Then, we had a wonderful crepe from the south-west of France, as an amuse bouche. Our first menu choice was a well prepared monkfish with a nice kaffir lime leaf in grapeseed oil in a coconut...

The service was down to earth and friendly and the food exceptional. If we get back to Honfleur we will definitely eat here again. Would recommend and suggest that you book well in advance.

SaQuaNa is one of those restaurants where you can enjoy fantastic food without having to face pretentious staff. It offers a minimalist and sober interior with large tables fairly spaced, a perfect setup to fully appreciate the dishes prepared by the chef. Two types of menus are possible: one with 5 dishes and the second one with 10. Both are... More

We ate on Good Friday evening. Firstly, theres only about 12 tables, so you must book well in advance. Secondly, there was no real choice of menu, everything is set. 5 courses were £68euros per person, or you could have the tasting menu, which I think was 9 courses. This suited us, but there didnt seem to be any other... More

Honfleur – Dinner at Sa Qua Na, on Rue Haute. This a definite “wow” place, owned by Chef Alexandre Bourdas and his wife. He cooked for Michel Bras in Japan, and here modern French cuisine, respect for beautiful local ingredients, and Japanese inspiration meld into a fantastic 2 Michelin star dining experience. Some of the most perfectly prepared seafood and... More

Sa Qua Na will steal your heart. On one of the lovely streets in Honfleur, beautifully thought-out food is served in modern surroundings. A bit of an asian influence going on and everything served is breathtaking in its delicacy, taste and presentation. Sa Qua Na has a Michelin star and it's only a matter of time before a second arrives.... More

Had a lovely lunch at Sa-Qua-Na in October 2012. Nearly everything we ate was absolutely delicious. The skate fish was honestly the most perfectly cooked fish I have ever eaten. My only complaint was the foul - I could barely cut through it and chewing was even worse. But everything else on the menu was so incredible that even this... More
