A Parisian institution for over 30 years
André Robert took over from the founder, Gérard Allemandou at the helm of this great ship anchored in the square named after the famous sculptor Constantin Brancusi, near the Cartier-Bresson Foundation. Montparnasse has always been, and remains, a district with a strong artistic heritage.
Since 1981 the Cagouille has led the way in creative seafood cuisine in Paris, a cuisine that they have developped over time into a signature style
“After the Minchelli Brothers who created raw fish cuisine in France, Gérard Allemandou has redefined cuisine for cooked seafood. This is cooking without pretense, without artifice and above all without overcooking. It is perfect, whether fried, baked, stewed, and always with just the right amount of oil. It’s real fish!“
Henri Gault from the famous Gault and Millau Guide
