Excellent staff and friendly greeting from the chef. It was the third time to go even before the Michelin star. Would recommend a meal and the wine arrangement. Chat with the chef as it just makes the experience complete.

This restaurant was recommended to us by a friend and while the food was delicious we found the service was lacking for example there were just 2 of us at our table and twice the waiter placed the dish in the wrong place. Our wine was not topped up as our glasses were empty we had to ask. I saw... More

Visited on 3rd of March, family dinner of 4 people. A shameful performance by both the kitchen and the service personnel for a Michelin-star restaurant. This was not the first visit to this place. Food rating (I.) and service rating (II.) below. I. The amuse-bouche was a cream of broccoli and cauliflower which was too firm and cold. The foie... More

The yesterday's evening dining experience in this restaurant turned out to be a combination of average palette experience and unpleasant array of arrogant attitude from the managment. Although having a nice interior this place lacks the fundamentals of a good restaurant (especially when pretending to be the fine dining apologet) - well-cooked tasty food and customer-driven warm attentive service.

This is the best restaurant in Antibes. I have eaten in most of the them over the years; and while Le Vauban is another very good choice, this is the best in my opinion.

We have been coming to Le Figuier de Saint Esprit since it opened (and we dined at Mr Morriset’s La Terrace Restaurant in Hotel Juana before that) but Le Figuier has become one of our favourite restaurants in this area simply because the food is truly exceptional! It is always so fresh, very seasonal and the taste and presentation is... More

We visited in early January 2013 and we had not eaten here for a number of years. The location and ambiance is wonderful. The only thing lacking is a sea view. The food is truly excellent, the choice on the dinner menu is more than adequate for most diners. It is not cheap but on our visit every course was... More

Definitely worth a visit if you fancy treating yourself to some good food. The tasting menu is worth the money, service is fairly quick and of a good standard, nice wine list and a lovely setting / atmosphere. I recommend it!

Tripadvisor lists Le Figuier de Saint Esprit as the best restaurant in town and it is right. The place is located in the old town, on the most charming side: the famous remparts, the cathedral and the Picasso museum are just outside. Inside the setting is elegant but not formal. The welcome is charming as the staff is young and... More
