I heard maybe the Totoche, in Port-aux Francais, French Southern Territories.   It's a tad small to hold the giant sound of MMJ but the local booking agent believes it's remote location will keep the crowd to a few lucky souls.    The Totoche has pretty solid menu as well.   Note the following five star review from mswain15:

"Had the deep sea platter , Shark fin, Whale cheek followed by Seal Pup belly ... fantastic!
Book early though as we had to wait 3 years for a table :-("

My favorite review -

I'd heard about the place for years, so I didn't want to miss it on my Capetown to Freemantle voyage.  Other yachts were crowding the harbor, and the place was packed with glitterati.  Unfortunately, I couldn't get in as I had neglected to bring a tuxedo due to some miscommunication between my cabin steward and my valet.  The Maitre d' at the restaurant even refused a bribe!  I mean, sacré bleu!  With the local tailor's shop closed (aren't they always in France?), I thought that I was out of luck.  But, refusing to be deterred after coming such a vast distance, I snuck around by the kitchen door and waited.  Pretty soon, the sous chef came out to feed the leftovers to the waiting stray cats, and I was able to shoo some of them away and get a nice sampling of the cuisine.  FABULOUS!   Totoche is definitely a destination for the more intrepid gastronome, but it is well worth the effort.  Just be sure to bring evening wear.

Why don't they just play a 3 night run at the YUM in their hometown?  Louisville would love it!!
