La Carangue
About
On Réunion, La Carangue occupies 1 Rue Roger Payet in L'Étang-Salé 97427, on the island's southern side.
The kitchen serves lunch and dinner across most of the week, with hours running 11:30-14:00 and 18:00-21:00 from Monday to Saturday. First-time visitors should plan around those two service windows, since the doors close between them. Its 3.8 out of 5 average, taken from 287 reviews, reflects a substantial volume of diners passing through.
L'Étang-Salé sits on the southern coast, reachable from Saint-Pierre and Saint-Leu along the coastal road that circles much of Réunion. Saint-Gilles-les-Bains, Saint-Paul and Saint-Denis lie further along the same network, so the restaurant fits into a wider drive around the island.
Between June and September, humpback whales visit Réunion's waters, along with dolphins and sea turtles, which gives a southern-coast meal a seasonal backdrop. The island's airport sits in the north, and a coastal road runs much of the way round, so reaching the southern coast from the main towns is straightforward by car.
