Journey between land and sea
Chef Philippe Moreno
Originally from Marseilles, Philippe Moreno trained alongside Gérald Passédat at the 3-Michelin-starred Petit Nice. A lover of seafood, he moved to Les Hortensias to explore the flavors of the Southwest, working closely with producers: fishermen, breeders, organic market gardeners. His fine, clear and inventive cuisine is an ode to the Basque-Landes terroir. Driven by the free and sensitive vision of chef Philippe Moreno, the cuisine at Les Hortensias du Lac pays homage to the products of the ocean, the market gardeners of the Southwest and the culinary heritage of the Landes region. A sincere, sunny experience rooted in life, served with a view of the lake.
Le restaurant gastronomique Les Hortensias est bien plus qu’une table, c’est une véritable immersion dans un univers culinaire où la créativité rencontre l’engagement écoresponsable. Le Chef privilégie les circuits courts et noue des partenariats solides avec des producteurs passionnés, garantissant une qualité irréprochable et une connexion authentique avec le terroir.
View of Lac d'Hossegor
The spectacular all-glass dining room extends the villa's original architecture and overlooks the marine lake. Inside, the windows open onto a wooded terrace with a chic guinguette ambiance. A rare and luminous setting, ideal for sunset dinners or summer lunches lulled by the sea spray.
A menu inspired by the ocean
Line-caught sea bass, octopus, imperial shrimp, root vegetables... Each plate tells the story of a coastal landscape. Iodine dominates, with subtle combinations and precise textures. The menu offers an elegant take on the great classics, while leaving room for light, daring contemporary creations. The chef imagines a cuisine of the living, clear and sincere, faithful to the Fontenille philosophy.
Seasonal products, short circuits
Every day, new arrivals dictate the menu. The chef composes according to the seasons and trusted partners: organic vegetables from neighboring farms, line-caught fish, ewe's milk cheese from the Basque hills... A cuisine of the present, in direct contact with the land and sea, that favors taste, roots and transparency.
Terrace between pines and lake
In the shade of the pines, the large terrace extends from the dining room. Rough wood, sleek furniture, low-angled light... An open-air setting, ideal for savoring a glass of Fontenille wine or a signature dish, your eyes lost in the reflections of the marine lake. In summer, the space becomes a vibrant refuge, chic and natural.
