About
Follow rue du Légué to find one of Saint-Brieuc’s most distinctive addresses. Aux Pesked sits high above the Gouët valley: the green views and the surrounding hills are a peaceful prelude to cooking that claims its closeness to the ocean. The Breton name, meaning “at the fish”, gives a direction, but does not sum up all of chef Mathieu Aumont’s work. The house cultivates a gastronomy of produce and landscape. Fish and seafood, scallops when in season, abalone and vegetables make up a precise culinary world, extended by herbs from the garden. On the plate, the aim is not to multiply tricks but to reveal textures, cooking and seasoning that respect each ingredient’s character. Sophie and Mathieu Aumont also stand for a certain idea of hospitality: carefully designed decor, a panoramic terrace, a private room and the possibility of an exceptional meal without showy formality. A visit suits a special occasion, and is also a fine way to discover ambitious cooking in Saint-Brieuc. The restaurant holds one star in 2026.
