If you’re fascinated by history, this is a must-see. It’s amazing to visit the actual house where Napoleon grew up, so much to take in and imagine from that era! But they could have made effort to make it a better experience.

This significant house, the childhood home of Napoleon Bonaparte, offers a glimpse into the lifestyle, furniture, and daily life of the family. However, the experience could be enhanced and made more educational. Unfortunately, there were no English text provided, and the audio guides were unavailable. As a result, we felt that we didn’t get as much as we had hoped. We would appreciate it if they could incorporate movies or videos that showcase the daily life of the family, their habits, and a brief history of the family tree. This would provide enthusiasts with much more to explore and learn. The ticket was 7 Euros per adult.

Napoleon's birthplace. Interesting museum, although not much is the same as when he lived there. His history and that of his family is well outlined. You are given an audio tour device at the door and the narration is pretty good in English. In early October there was a small line up to get in, but it went quickly. Note that the museum is closed for about 45 minutes around lunchtime. Avoid bringing large backpacks if you can. Security check at the door.

Nice little piece of great European history. Museum dedicated solely to Napoleon's early life, without emphasis on his military career. Well organised and not very crowded. Ten minutes waiting for entrance is to be expected and no liquids allowed inside.

If you visit Ajaccio, you should definitely stop by this place — the house where Napoleon spent part of his life, now turned into a museum. The entrance fee is €7 for visitors over the age of 25.

So this was the childhood home of Napolis whom left at 9 years old to go to France military academy. He led a troubled youth on the island. So his dad shipped him off to military school with his brother. Inter sting note. This is not where he was as exiled to. Just where he started life. Family was poor. Rented rooms in the home. It was only many years later the family came into favor and money with the military escapades of Napoleon. Who interestingly sought to place his sisters and brothers in positions of power all throughout Europe. A very modest old building. Nothing really great to see but history as it occurred.

Excellent little museum in a delightful town Would really like to holiday here the short cruiseship visit was nice but we left to soon

Nice artwork. Some of the artwork had too much direct sunlight to enjoy. Some of the darker pieces could have been best shown in a darker room as well. With relation to the artwork, I would have half the price of the entry ticket.

Inconsistent family concept We were right in the middle of doing one of the family panflets when we first earned many mean looks and surveillance by the first floor staff. We didn't do anything wrong though, didn't run around, didn't touch anything, didn't eat, only talked about the art and the panflet. That probably annoyed them. Then all of a sudden we were told off VERY RUDELY for leaving our trolley in another room for a second while completing one of tasks (you had to search for a painting). When we took it with us we were SHOUTED AT that we have to navigate in the center of the corridor instead of to the right (we didn't want to block oncoming traffic). Ridiculous. Rules were clearly improvised to get rid of us. Overall, we felt excluded as a family in a sad case of adultism. How are you supposed to ignite interest in arts in children when they are made to feel unwelcome in museums that propagate to be family-friendly?

If you are an art lover you are going to be engaged but not bowled over. Not the highlight one hopes for but there are some works from famous names and a lot of division two. Centre of old Ajaccio so you are going to visit but don't pin your holiday on it. Like so often en France, the beat is in Paris. The Bonaparte fetish is also in full swing which, despite the fact the locals don't like the guy, they milk him for all his ermine clad imperial worth.

Fine arts of Corsica, history of napoleon and chapel of the Bonaparte family crypt! Must see!

An excellent collection of Napoleonic portraiture and one of the best collections of Italian 18th century art outside the Louvre, set in a beautiful renovated 3 level gallery in the middle of the Ajaccio shopping district.

Impressive art collection well displayed.

Museum was incredible, specially for how low the cost is.

Beautiful cathedral once visited by Pope Francis.

Very interesting little cathedral. Unassuming on the outside. Inside there is some beautifully intricate stucco decor, but a fair bit of it is chalked on - I wonder why? Budget cuts? Plenty of candles to light inside if you have recently lost a loved one/ are worried about your bowel movements following that dodgy sandwich you are next door. There is also a brilliant organ behind you as you walk in, so don't forget to look up and all around you.

A nice port town. Easy to get around. Indoor meat market at the port entrance- with fresh fruit and veg outside. The Cathedral is well worth a visit. Good variety of shops cafes etc. A small town but interesting features and history.

In love with this place. I feel so calm and peaceful when I visit this place. Love sitting in silence here.

Nice church that needs some loving restoration to bring out the beauty of art n

Beautiful historical church. Stay inside you will feel calm and peace.

Nice place

Hidden in a side street down the Tribunal Judiciaire d’Ajaccio, this little restaurant offers fine cuisine and good service. They had three starters, three main courses and three desserts plus Corsican cheeses to choose from. My wife and I ordered five different dishes plus cheese, all were very yummy! 😋

Wonderful restaurant. Food was first class. Service was faultless and the chef was introduced to us at the end. Simon is a very nice affable guy. If I had longer in Ajaccio I would go back in a heartbeat.

We loved the food here. My wife said the octopus was the best she's ever had, which is a high compliment since that is one of her favorite things. No issues accommodating our allergies even on the prix fixe menu for lunch (we got a different starter than was offered on the regular lunch menu for that day). Great experience and a good value for the lunch set menu.

This restaurant is on a side street a bit away from the very touristy areas of Ajaccio. It is only slightly more expensive than the tourist restaurants closer to the water, but the delicious food and great service more than make up for that. Creative, good tasting food with wonderful local Corsican ingredients and inspiration. A gem.

Wonderful family restaurant very close to the Musee Fesch in Ajaccio. Friendly, professional service with a very reasonably priced lunch formule. Pasta with fresh girolle mushrooms was amazing, as was the fish main and the reconstructed Snickers Bar dessert rocked. Highly, highly recommend. A short but judicious and well-priced wine list. Do reserve ahead, and enjoy! We will be back!

Outstanding small and authentic restaurant in a sea of tourist places. Impeccable and delicious local specialities with an emphasis on fresh seafood. Small local wine list. Worth a detour. Service very friendly and welcoming. Do not skip dessert!! Prices are reasonable for a place of this quality, with starters around €20 and mains between €20 and €30

Beautiful restaurant! I booked this for a birthday treat for my partner, and messaged ahead as I am vegan, and was so pleasantly suprised with the feast prepared for me! He even remembered vegan protein (which is rare for some non vegan establishments!). Tomato tartare with Quinoa, courgette ravioli and fruits, sorbet and mint. Sublime- thank you A Nepita!

Probably the best pizza in Ajaccio, other dishes also delicious, service top, the chef a super nice guy, prepared for us especially some dishes to take with on the ferry although the restaurant was closed at that hour. Next time on Corsica this place is a must for us, and just because of the top people there and their delicious food. Thanks a lot for everything, we had a great experience!

The crush was soggy, the pizza was  mediocre. There were several people  smoking and it was really hot on the terrace.

Best meal in Ajaccio and was so good we went back the next night! Friendly and helpful service from Barbara and Jerome as well as the chef himself Fredo :) delicious and fresh Sardinian food! One of the best Italian pasta’s of my life. Will be going back next year if we can!

Best Pizza in town with cheap prices compared to normal price level in Ajaccio. Quite a bit to walk from the inner city but totally worth it. Owner arranged an additional table as restaurant was already full. Fantastic!

We came to this restaurant on Sunday evening, at the end of March, when nearly all in Ajaccio was closed. We were very tired after long journey from Warsaw. We met very hospitable People here and super pizza with spinach and brocciu. We recommend this place very much! Greetings from Poland!

Amazing pizza with Neapolitan style dough and fresh ingredients, the pizza comes super fast as well. Great price (~ €13 for pizza) Wine by the glass is good. Cash only.

Super friendly, great ambiance, clean. Best pizza in Corsica! Good Sardenian wine. Eggplant and smoked cheese and the anchovy with cheese pizzas were terrific. Just finished the leftover at airport.

Beautiful food and service! The friendly chef explained the menu to us, and we both enjoyed a set menu of grilled octopus entrees and then fish and beef as our mains. Everything was cooked to perfection - tender, fragrant, and perfectly seasoned! Service was also very quick which we appreciated! The only downside was the man next to us who smoked 4 cigarettes in the one hour we were there that we decided to leave without having dessert as the smell was becoming too much.

It is a delightful restaurant that looks down to the Golfe. The menu is explained to you personally by reading each offering one item at a time, to you. All items I've had have been excellently and tastefully prepared. Come by 8pm reservation or you will wait as all tables are reserved. I have eaten there 3 times for dinner and not once disappointed.

We had an amazing dinner at Le Bistrot Gourmand during our vacation in Corse. Very artisan and friendly. Food was delicious and the service very attentive and impeccable. The kelner explained about every dish and the choice of food and wine was quite wide. Very reasonable priced also! Artisan French home cooked meal! One of the favourite places in Ajaccio. Highly recommended. Thank you!

We went here for lunch, twice, it was extraordinary! Small menu of four main starters, courses and desserts. I had a octopus salad as starter and a variety of mixed seafood and the fish filet as main course. It was delicious!!! The staff was so sympathetically and welcoming it was a total pleasure!

what a quaint little spot! unpretentious and delicious food! reasonably priced and the staff are so warm and welcoming! took the time to try to translate all the dishes on the menu for me :)

Lovely location with delicious local dishes and generous portions. The staff were welcoming and understanding and gave us a good wine recommendation at a reasonable prize. A real find!

Wonderful coleslaw with shrimps and cuttlefish and the terrine of porc and foie gras made it for an amazing start! Very tasty dishes of porc with chestnut honey sauce and fish with a sauce which I couldn’t put a name on it but was absolutely delicious! Not to mention that if you take the first table on exterier terace you get to have a dinner with a view to the sea while also observing real life of locals having evening drinks at the bar next door! Overall great experience!!

Great tasty pasta, exceptional friendly service, very reasonable prices. All boxes checked. Highly recommended. Deserves the high rating

The Italian Lady was very friendly and helped us to place our bags and everything! Very supportive. We were 3 persons and were eating for lunch here. I had Carbonara with Trufflesauce - it was extremely delicious! We had to wait about 25 minutes until the Pasta was ready (on a busy Saturday for Lunch).

Excellent. Cozy Italian restaurant. The lady owner is serving and she is incredibly nice! Spaghetti Vongole was awesome. Try the desserts. Don’t forget about the tiramisu.

Horrible and unconsiderate. We booked a table for 3 and when we arrived on time, the lady had given the table away. Totally unacceptable. Zero respect. Then decided to place us in another table that was for 1 person. Total disrespect.

Nice tiny restaurant with good quality food and nice atmosphere. Highly recommended if you want to enjoy a nice pasta dish.

The Spaghetti Carbonara with black summer truffle was absolutely delicious and the service was very friendly.

I can not express the happiness I felt in this restaurant. The staff is absolutely amazing and I will come back!

A very enjoyable place with friendly staff. It’s actually a delicatessen, but you can find a variety of other dishes as well. No reservation is needed. We really loved it.

Friendly staff, fluent english, Corsica burger was delicious. As a guy, to feel full I needed two dishes, but due to the very fair prices I still payed less than I would have in other places nearby. Can be served like in normal restaurant but can also buy everything on the menu in the small store.

If you're looking for "authentic Corsican food" and to eat like the locals....this is it!!! Corsica has the most incredible meats and cheeses you will find anywhere in the world. A Cassetta is all about letting these incredible ingredients shine. The boards sandwiches and salads here are perfectly prepared. Local meats cheeses bread honey wines. Everything is fresh local and thoughtfully prepared. Incredible value. One of the great meals of my life. I recommend multiple visits to try everything. A really special place.

Great local food and warm welcome from the amazing staff, what a delight! I would love to go back soon!

Amazing food, very nice staff and very descent prices. We had the Corsican burger and cheese+charcuterie salad, all local and good quality food. Cozy outside seatings as well.

My partner and I came to this lovely establishment in late May 2024, where we ordered 2 baguettes. Quite simply, these were the most delicious baguettes we have ever eaten. The two ladies who own and manage this establishment were so kind and lovely, and the products they sell, cheese, charcuterie are all supplied from a farm that one of the ladies own on the island. My partner is telling me that his mouth still waters when he thinks about that baguette! Mine too! I think that the one we had was called a "complete", it had cured ham, 2 different cheeses, one goats, one sheep, and a delicious tomato salsa, all from the farm! I cannot remember your names, but to the two lovely ladies who own and run the establishment, we remember you very much, you were so kind, charming and interesting. If we ever visit your beautiful island again, you can be assured that we will come see you again, and order another of your incredible, world-beating filled baguettes!! To anyone reading this, honestly, I've travelled far and wide, I've eaten literally thousands of sandwiches, perhaps tens of thousands, but the sandwich/baguette I had from A Casetta Produits Corses came from the heavens!! 5 stars, I'd give 200 if I could!! The prices were very reasonable compared to other establishments we saw locally. With much love, Eddy and Joe from rainy Angleterre!! Xxxx

Quality local products good wine very friendly owner
