Cosy & Little restaurant. Fresh food, all dishes are home made with love !! Weâre cooking specialities from differents parts of France, but essentially from Provence.

The ardoise tempted us in, but the 2 dishes we wanted souris d'agneau and home made burger weren't available. So we took the coquelet. Re ally VERY good. It looked a little pale and flabby as it hadn't been roasted but braised. It was moist, succulent, delicious served with good spuds and a thin jus, which threatened to run off the plate as the table was at an acute angle, and a bit of salad. The salad.... Now why WHY WHY do restaurant staff INSIST on squirting crème de balsamic all over everything? Why?Good service.

Our hotel recommended this gem for our last night in the area. A winding road brought us to this perfect place right on the water. Our view to the west was stunning as sunset hit and our dinner matched. The uniqueness of the layout of the place added to our pleasure as did the service. Oysters, salmon carpaccio, daurade, loup de mer, a lovely wine list and the fact that the diners were mostly local made for a perfect evening.

A small and hidden place in the heart of Monte Carlo - warm, white, essential - where you can taste the flavours of a real Italian kitchen, maybe fall in love with a glass of wine and spend some joyful time sitting at the table. Serving Italian breakfast

This restaurant was lovely and delicious. This tiny Italian restaurant is located in the heart of Monaco, inside a shopping mall in a very private, reserved part of it! It had great reviews here, so we decided to try it and absolutely happy we did so! Apparently the menu changes every day, and we were lucky enough the day we visited, to have 'Paccheri Bolognese' - a type of pasta in the shape of a very large tube, originating from Campania with the 'Bolognese sauce' a meat-based sauce in Italian cuisine, typical of the city of Bologna. It was sublime!! We also ordered 'Carpaccio Bresaola' a beef fillet which is first cured in salt and spices, and then hung to dry. We paid Euro 41,00 that for us it was perfectly fine - not necessarily too expensive, but again we live in London so the prices are similar. Value: 10/10 If you visit Monaco, trust me, you need to try it!

Off the beaten path David, found this incredible airy gastronomic restaurant, that has vaulted ceilings, country style furnishings and serves gourmet Mediterranean cuisine. There's also a dining terrace with umbrella-shaded tables, and a wine cellar overlooking the Main Street and school. This restaurant is owner operated and probably has 14 tables. Itâs a bit far from Monaco but worth the extra effort in coordinating a private car.As you enter the restaurant you enter through a courtyard and take a flight of stairs to find this quaint airy, vaulted ceiling restaurant with the option of sitting outside on the balcony. If it wasnât so hot we would of chosen to sit outside.As we were seated we offered all this amazing courses instantly and asked if we would like start off with Champagne. Of course in our minds, why not? Letâs get straight the the point and dinner started!We chose to get the tasting menu which was just incredible, the flavors of each morsel was light, tasty, perfectly orchestrated for a discerning foodie, the service was delightful and executed with style and elegance.The bakeries was incredible! Homemade rolls from the oven warm, outside was nice and firm, crunchy but as you broke the roll the steam was coming out and as you slathered the roll with homemade churned butter, the flavors just melded together and melted in your mouth, focaccia bread was light, with a slight flavor of rosemary, breadstick flakey and buttery with the right amount of salt, delicate cherry tomato in a buttery cup pastry, garlic melded butter with local herbs, celery, basil cream, fresh olive coupled with this cold tomato soup with a cucumber, celery sorbet, this was just magnificent.Our tasting menu started shortly after this and each item that was served just got better and better each time, the flavors was incredible, presentation was just out of this world and worth the value for the experience. The delivery of each course was presented and executed with precision. The first course was lobster slightly tossed in flour, spices, drenched in a very light egg batter which was delicate, pan fried in butter with slivers of almonds accompanied with a raspberry sauce and garnished with fresh greens.Fresh tender cuttle fish with fresh peas and Lima beans, in a light sauce, garnished with local garden greens.Fresh homemade pasta, filled with local fresh buffalo cheese cream, black truffles, wild mushrooms and asparagus tips.Extracted Langostines juices with fresh peach, slightly steamed prawns with a wild asparagus.Airy with a velvet Citron, Jasmin, Citronelle infused shrimpSteamed sea bass which was so flaky, crisp cucumbers, loquat, seedless watermelon extraction.Fresh local succulent fish, served with creamy mashed potato, sliced of tomatoes in a bouillabaisse sauce with local fresh herbs.Baby hearty fresh lamb sautéed in butter, grilled and charred, potato purée, fresh corset and flower, wild mushrooms, served with a light delectable sauce. Charred wild pigeon, thinly sliced rare, grilled goose liver pate, served with morel and wild mushrooms served with a Sauvignon reduction sauce.Infused dark red cherries in alcohol, served with cream gelato.

This is the place for any cheese lover. Huge selection of cheeses even some local one from Sosper and Peille. Lovely and authentic deco inside. Staff is very knowledge and you will learn more about cheese than you have ever before. Everyone should try the sample plate which contains 10 different cheeses and totals half a kilo. Wine selection is good too. This place is simply amazing experience!

Ok. So i stumbled across this absolute gem of an establishment when i was hunting down a different restaurant. The other place was full which lead me down the road to this welcoming and cosy safw haven from the harsh streets of Monaco....sure. After about half a second of meeting the owner i recognised that ever distinguishable 'Aussie' accent. A fellow kangaroo fighter? What are the odds. He was more than accommodating for my Coeliac partner as we ordered our absolute degustation of goodness. A welcomed surprise restaurant that suits the age old story that indeed good things do come in small packages.

Reviewed By Scipion-Paris
I keep returning to the restaurant, both to enjoy outstanding views and delicious food - the menu has quite few new items and the setting is absolutely astonishing.Do not miss asparagus with oscietre caviar and egg, light and tasty nor barely cooked gamberonis, delicate and translucide, with mango sauce and zucchini. As far as mains are concerned, the fish is delicious and imaginative, although seasoning -while perfect- is a bit too delicate for my taste. Usual problem is that after excellent cheese plate and impressive selections of hime baked bread (esp. black one), there is little space left for totally amazing desserts. If only one, do not miss lemon tart - lemon/ginger cream on crispy black sesame cracker and with yuzu topping !The wine list is very much focused on the South of France and well adapted to the local food.this is a very definitive thoughtful review,Scipion.all of us,particularly Chef Raingard are very pleased the revised summer menu is proving so popular.our black bread is made to a secret recipe especially for Cap Estel.I agree with you the fish sauce is delicate-flavour led to compliment the fish dish.I prefer something a bit stronger.Chef,if given notice will oblige.next time try the the lemon tart (another house specialty) to share.it is delicious and worth leaving till last.thank you for sharing your Tableu Cap Estel dining experience with our guests.its informative and shows your appreciation for Team Cap Estel's commitment to excellence.look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Even though there is only two people they were both really friendly and welcoming.I had the summer salad starter and it was so fresh and delicious.We both had the beef as a main course which was sublime, chocolate and berries for dessert were also amazing The restaurant food is amazing quality and well priced.Lovely location in the old town, also the owners dog is super cute :-)

Recommended by our Airbnb host and holding first position in TripAdvisor for Cap d'Ail - definitely has to be tested. And it was good, we were early but later there came more and more people. Had a shared signature starter which was maybe a bit bland, but not bad. The signature burger was very good. Wine list was short but had enough to choose from, mostly French wines.Worth it if you are in the area!

Beaulieu-sur-Mer is blessed with great restaurants but this is a gem.The interior is modern high end bistro and the food is sublime. I will remember the amazing buffalo mozzarella with finely chopped vegetables forever. This was only a starter but set the scene for a memorable evening of fabulous food and fine wine - I can highly recommend the Argentinian Malbec Rewen. Sacrilage I know in a country that produces the best wine bar none!!We chose fillet of beef for the main course and this was beautiful, done very simply and garnished with vegetables and a small jus. Only the French know how how to make bread and this was plentiful throughout the meal.Whilst we were full I just had to squeeze in a dessert and Iâm so glad I did. The poached pear was one of the nicest Iâve had - and that includes many Michelin restaurants.The staff are friendly, helpful and happy to explain the dishes. My only wish is that we were in Beaulieu-sur-Mer a little longer in order to pay another visit. I highly recommend dining here, food and wine fabulous and thereâs a lovely buzzy atmosphere.
