Michelin-Star Restaurants

For a dining experience that blends artistry and flavor, the Riviera boasts several Michelin-starred gems. Here are some standout options:

• Mirazur, Menton

  Led by the visionary Chef Mauro Colagreco, this three-Michelin-starred restaurant is celebrated for its inventive, seasonal dishes crafted with ingredients from its own gardens.

  "The connection between sky and earth, and the influence of the Moon and planets on plants, shapes our menu creation at Mirazur. Each dish tells a story of our region's abundant produce." – Chef Mauro Colagreco

• La Table du Cap Estel, Èze
  In 2025, Chef Kévin Garcia brought his culinary expertise to Cap Estel, where he collaborates with the estate's gardener to cultivate a kitchen garden rich with aromatic herbs like tarragon, lemon thyme, and wild fennel.

• La Vague d'Or, Saint-Tropez
  Chef Arnaud Dockele's creativity shines in dishes such as spider crab in a citrus bath, verbena-infused bouillon, and abalone paired with locally grown onions.

Given the popularity of these establishments, especially during peak times like the Cannes Film Festival in May, it’s wise to book your table at least a month in advance.
