Mauro Colagreco

Extraordinary food and service! Unforgettable experience! Also, my wife and I are super full after the dinner :-D

Simply incredible !!! Hard to say in words all the flavors and delights that are experienced there. Really worth it from the time you get there until you leave. 3 hours of haute cuisine !!!!! I would return without hesitation.

Beautiful restaurant. Very elegant yet simple. The chef, how creative and talented. I am still dreaming of my wonderful dish.

Not sure how anyone could have a terrible negative experience at this place!! Absolutely loved the whole experience today with my partner as he is also a chef! Excellent service, staff, atmosphere and absolutely orgasmic food! Very attentive friendly staff. Perfect from the smallest detail! Even got to chek out the kitchen and meet the Artists behind the creations. Overall amazing and definitely a must try! Thank you guys for adding a little extra magic in our lives!!

Well, this was simply amazing.

Service: you have some great people there. And I mean above the expectations that one has when coming to a 3* restaurant. You have characters, that made our experience even better. Thank you!

Ambient: We were a bigger group and sat on the chefs table. We had a nice view in the garden, the coast and in the kitchen. Just right for my taste.
After the dessert we were also invited into the kitchen. Thank you for that too! I could also take a walk in the garden were some of the food is grown and where they make their bread.

Food: great! To the point and yet playful. Since the menu changes so often I won't be too specific here. But idea, craft, passion and precision of the kitchen staff are joined together in the dish in front of you. You will see it, smell it and taste it.

We sincerely gone with much anticipation, we like this kind of restaurants and we like to travel. We arrived a little late because of the traffic, I failed to notice that the phone directs you to the web for anything that has to do with the booking but the lady at the desk was super friendly when we arrived. The views from the restaurant are lovely, not super formal, there are not many tables. The girl who explained the dishes I was cold and edge like I do not understand why it costs so much to smile and be a little nicer, it helps a lot to the final opinion. Good food, dessert has disappointed, we expected something more elaborate. An interesting experience but we would not return. Thank you

Very good product and elaboration, although I don't know if it is up to other great internationals. The location is amazing!

Perfect for living an exceptional moment!
The meal, master Mauro Colagreco, the team and the place: everything is wonderful and in a region rich in excellent products that deserves to be explored!
Congratulations !!!!

An exceptional birthday lunch everyone takes care of us and we are in for a treat, the flavors, the textures made us live an unforgettable taste experience !!! Thanks to the whole team, we'll be back !!!

The restaurant is located just after the high frontier of XXMiglia, an almost anonymous villa with a small parking lot which leads to the reception, the room is located on the floor above and offers a beautiful view of the Menton.
It is here that the Argentine Chef Mauro Colagreco delights the diners with his two star dishes.
Excellent, from the appetizers to the dessert, a real treat.
The guys in the room are very good, elegant hospitality and constant attention without invasions.
Price in line with the same level restaurants, all absolutely well spent.
Great place!

Cash factory rather than best restaurant in the world ...
Arrived 10 minutes in advance we were sent like children to the toilet (for men, 2 dirty urinals and without separation) ... because the reception did not know what to do with us, as we understood in coming out, hearing the waiters complaining about our advance. Picnic on the exotic grass (with however the railway line and the passage of a few trains). Back to the dining room, a very noisy room, we have trouble hearing the waiters who, for a certain number, have a poor command of the French language. Very impersonal service, almost industrial, and not always professional (plate and glasses of wine placed without delicacy). The "Mirazur" brand everywhere, all the time ... really giving the feeling that the restaurant lives on its fame rather than seeking the satisfaction of its customers. While in terms of food all we were looking for was surprise on the plate, we find cuisine that is very fair but without emotion. At the end of the meal, we were offered a second coffee. Even before he arrives, we are told that the taxi has arrived (and therefore, the meter is running ...). No one takes us home or says goodbye. An addition of 1340 euros (10 euros for coffee!). Anyway, we were happy to go but it was very disappointing.

Food was excellent - service was very good, and the views were gorgeous. A very pleasant experience definitely worthy of its accolades. Met my expectations of a Michelin 3-star establishment.

Did the Signature menu. Was the most life changing meal I ve ever had. I also never knew service at a restaurant could be so good. This place is incredible!

Y:ThumbsUp: es I th:ExpandingBrain:ink sense ma:clapclapslapslap:ke t:airplane: ruly

We eat well and the setting is nice, but the reputation is totally overrated in my opinion.

it's the 2 times I come, I let myself be carried away by the poetry of the dishes, the subtlety of flavor mixtures, the imagination, by eating slowly I was able to appreciate the quality of the products, when
we come to the Mirazur, you have to take your time, although the portions are minimalist, I was full, the staff is considerate, the chef came to see everyone, a small gift on leaving, it is a beautiful place with views of Menton and the Mediterranean, Ideal for Valentine's Day

Yum! Such an enjoyable meal! The wine pairing were excellent, even though we didnt go for the official wine pairings. Service was excellent and friendly, with good information about the food and preparation to make it interesting and involving. The view is spectacular, though much better when it is sunny. Really want to come back in the summer when the shutters are open as I imagine the experience will be incredible.
Two things which will hopefully push it up to No:1 place in the world. Firstly, the sales of flavoured olive oil was a bit pushy and could have been a bit more open and upfront. The second one is that there were a couple of gaps in our wine (we finished and had eaten half of another course before we got something else), possibly due to a misunderstanding about what we wanted, but that would have the experience perfect!
Thank you!

It was my first Michellin restaurant. Everything is very impressive, all the vegetables is from the chief's garden. This year the restaurant celebrates 12th anniversary and the chief offers special course with 12 dishes, 1 best from every year. Additionally it has marvellous view and fine wine list.

Exceptional food, beautiful setting. Worth the splurge.

Served and prepared with heart and presence. Quality and reputation is felt, not just experienced with senses.

It is a beauty the views and the spectacular food. Everything makes a unique experience

Very nice and excellent service and great atmosphere but is little expensive

Very friendly Staff, Tasty food, Top restaurant in the world . I haven't eaten like this food in the world. Awesome . Recommend people to go there and eat there. Place is also amazing

Mirazur is wonderful. Every dish combines simplicity with excellence. The view over Mention makes the experience extraordinary. Thank you Mauro Colagreco !

Exceptional surprising refined and delicate
A chance to have had dinner at the Mirazur
An experience to live which remains in memory, and which invites to discover the other themes!
thanks again

From the web it looks like a wonderful place! When I am in Menton I will visit them.

Too overpriced for a menu which is ultimately a confusion of flavors.
We have not had a beautiful treatment. Cold and icy place, we tasted some magnificent and simple dishes, others too complicated with acid notes that killed the flavor of the fish. Disappointing sweets. Two Michelin stars that don't shine.

Exceptional food and staff very friendly and attentive

Not the best in the world, but a nice experience (it better be for the hefty price). There were some faults in the service, like bringing us a plate that was not in our menu and then taking it away, having to ask for our wine to be refilled, a dirty bathroom etc. If you re best in the world this is not acceptable. However the staff was friendly, the food delicious and of the highest quality/presentation etc. but there are equally good restaurants for half the price.

We went on Thursday September 24, 2020 at 8:30 PM. What a desappointment ! It begins with the entrance to the restaurant's ground floor. No refinement, all that was missing was a pinball machine or a snooker to complete the atmosphere. We go up to the 1st floor and the atmosphere is confirmed. For a 3 *** Michelin, so-called best restaurant in the world 2019 (no matter what) these tables without tablecloth what disarray, which are never cleaned during the meal. In addition, the restaurant is extremely noisy! The service is young and does not speak French correctly, no tablet or QR code to choose your aperitif, your dishes and pair them with the wines (we only took exceptional wines at 45 a glass and we wonders where the exception was), the champagne a simple Billecart-Salmon which was not even fresh). The waiters are circling around you, never the same to ask you if "you've been wrong"! Then come the dishes: frankly it does not break two legs to a duck! The only thing that impressed us: it was the desserts and yet we are not desserts. This Italian pastry chef is a pastry Mozart. In conclusion, it's barely a Michelin star without tablecloth or service. We will not go, no matter how much the bill is if it deserves it. This is really not the case

Excellent welcome, great food, very friendly waiters! Good luck finding a place;)

Disappointed by the kitchen. Lack of harmony in the composition of a 6 course menu. Home unpleasant by an Iberian room chef who should learn to be more kind and be smiling. The table staff is very kind. Very average experience.

Full score. Fantastic food and matching wine - we had the signature menu. Many tasteful details and surprises during the meal. Friendly and helpful staff.
Only one small thing at the negative side; A little noisy with drunk people shouting and baby s crying.

We assume that it is a 2-star and so it's all very good. Service with attention to the smallest details, a wide menu on fish and noble fish such as prawns and lobsters. The cellar is a really beautiful thing. To try, high price, but the quality is paid.

I put a star because I can not put 0, your kitchen is really tasteless and without a clear thread.

what a delight and what precautions in barrier measures, nothing to say! we have to go

Accessible, I say accessible because the experience is simple but confusing. Change codes, kindness, benevolence are in the relationship with the team in the room. Beautiful view from the table. A forward-looking approach In short all that is expected when one is interested in the personality of the leader. A personal kitchen that travels and helps move the lines of ethical, organic and responsible gastronomy.

Incredible views and the service was great. The quality of ingredients was fantastic too. But there was unfortunately an absence of knockout dishes. The beetroot and fish courses were a little bland and too creamy. I think the meat was water bathed which I don't particularly like. Overall I wanted a little more punch, more intensity of flavour and less cream and sweetness.

Bad experience within the establishment mirazur parking too small flat bof bof cost 260 for 2 guests

Very disappointed with the menu does not deserve 3 stars

In terms of dishes nothing to say, it's excellent or sometimes sublime. However, several caveats as to the way of receiving.
1 / No information regarding parking. We have to park one behind the other. A bit haphazard and without prior information. In short, we manage as best we can.
2 / With cheese, the service finds it very difficult to serve us bread. We finally propose that 2 kinds of bread the 3rd "there is none left" they tell us. A minute later we see the famous bread missing in the basket of the other server.
3 / We don't offer sugar with coffee .... You have to ask.
4 / We are served wine, cheese and coffee, without making us travel. Nothing to tell us about these flavors
And finally, the menu with the prices communicated to men and not to women. We are in the XXI century. And these days it can be upsetting.
To conclude. A treat for the taste buds, but a very clear feeling of being in a commercial site where everything must be optimized and performed.

A whole ceremonial. To do once to know the 2-star Michelin restaurant

The food was not really too our liking. Way too much butter in too many dishes ruined the evening and meal for us. Just our opinion and maybe just an unfortunate day but this was the first time I was disappointed at a Michelin restaurant

Very very disappointed with this evening. Being ourselves former 3 Michelin star cooks and professionals in the sector, we expected this establishment, crowned best restaurant in the world in 2019, to come close to perfection and make us dream. After being greeted coldly, as in any restaurant, we walked into a soulless room, filled with young, inexperienced waiters, as if we were in a hotel school practice dining room. We can't say who the theater manager was, we didn't see him or he didn't play his role as such.
Several servers from several countries paraded in front of us all evening, without any organization.
Big big downside also the sommelier. Another young boy who seemed to have just graduated from hotel school in the region because he did not even know his wine list. No advice on the food / wine pairing, we doubt even if he knew the chef's menu. We would have let ourselves be guided on the wines, even if it means taking several good bottles but seeing the disorganization in the room, one of the people present at our table, whose job is to sell wine, to prefer to take mid-range wines.
As you will understand, we are very very disappointed with the service.
Note that the restaurant urgently needs work, especially the toilets which look more like toilets in a vulgar bar than toilets with 3 Michelin stars.
As far as the cuisine is concerned, we note that for this part there is indeed a conductor in it, but honestly, we are far from the standards of a 2-star restaurant, even more than 3 Michelin stars.
We note the effort to want to work with products from the restaurant's organic garden and regional products, but we did not have the surprise and astonishment on the dishes as in some other 3 Michelin stars that we have done in the past.
PetitE Positive note on the appetizers and sweets where we had different flavors. The best of the dinner was ginger / lemon olive oil from the small local producer.
At the end of the meal, in order not to lie, we reported our feelings of dinner to the waiter, thinking that the chef or one of his managers would come and see us, but since our arrival, our exit was also cold. It seems a long time ago when the Michelin-starred chef, when he is present in his restaurant, greets every customer before they leave.
If the chef was present in the restaurant, we would have liked to be able to converse with him because we think that all the constructive criticisms are good but given the bad experience we had, better to think that he was not present that evening there .
Sir, until you have a strong team, we think it's best for you to be there because 3 stars can turn into shooting stars very quickly.

In summary, we strongly advise against going to dinner at the Mirazur restaurant at this time (early 2020) but hope that these few lines will allow the chef to react quickly before the possible loss of one or more stars if his gentlemen of the guide Michelin descend a little from their little cloud.

Extraordinary. Divine cuisine, perfect service, worthy of a ballet. Only small downside decoration that is not at the level of the rest. But it's a detail.

What a wonderful lunch! everything was perfect, the food of course absolutely exceptional in taste and presentation, the staff very attentive and friendly.

Great service - great location - food par for the course

Bear the name of the best restaurant in the world is a big responsibility, but they keep up to it.

Excellent creative a mixture of flavors of sensations and a different cuisine that surpasses all other starred chefs. The leaf menu is exceptional. Thanks to the whole team.

What a wonderful lunch! everything was perfect, the food of course absolutely exceptional in taste and presentation, the staff very attentive and friendly. We will return there as soon as possible with the greatest pleasure. Well-deserved Best Restaurant in the World, congratulations.

Welcome, service, setting, and above all the quality of the meal! Everything is perfect. An unforgettable moment.

Super experience. Pas de choix.
We recommend you absolutely this place.
High french gastronomie and excellent service you see starters on the photo as we are concerned about etiquette and during the evening at the restaurant our telephones were in our bags

Thank you for this magical meal on the theme of leaves. We therefore have to come back 15 times for each season and on each of the themes. Congratulations to all the helpful, attentive, educational teams. I am not used to big retaurants, but there it was magic for all the senses. well done

The effect of looking at an abstract painting where I didn't understand the artist

There is nothing special about the menu, the portions are tiny and the service is poor.
It is very expensive and there was not even toilet paper in the toilet.

Just didn't quite get this restaurant. Was very excited for it. Setting is great, service top notch. But for me the food just didn't click. Flavours weren't balanced, under/overseasoning, bizarre matches, and an overall feeling of a chef just trying too hard.
You also get a sense of a chef with some ego ....he is certainly portrayed as the hero of outfit in a multitude of ways.
Maybe the hype is catching up. Maybe it was an off day. But I really just didn't get any wow moments (save the palate cleanser which was excellent), and lots of "meh" moments. I did have dinner at L'auberge by Paul Bocuse the night before which I absolutely adored so maybe my tastebuds are just a bit old fashioned. But maybe not.
I'd love to see the chef take a step back, tone it down, simplify a bit, and focus on nailing the basics and making the food absolutely stop your heart delicious rather than worrying if the plate is cerebral enough to justify a number 6 spot on the top 50 list.

We found that the dishes missed love, control and balance we sum I hope to fall one evening when the chef Colagreco did not officiate in the kitchen and the room service was far too fast we had not had time to blow between each dish

It's the service that sets this place apart! All the servers were incredibly friendly and hospitable - perhaps the first time in a long time I've been at a restaurant and really felt at home with the wait staff.
Dishes were beautifully plated, and much of the meal had different influences from around the world. There were a lot of Japanese ingredients in Mauro's menu, and almost all were winners!
We celebrated a birthday here, and the restaurant was kind enough to bring out a matcha cake in the shape of a tulip with a candle. After the meal, even though it was well past midnight, they set us in the patio to relax and take our time - no pressure at all, which you might feel in some other 3 Michelin star restaurants, and you would most likely feel at other restaurants of a different caliber.
Mirazur is a multi storey restaurant overlooking the ocean next to the French-Italian border in Menton, which in itself is a gorgeous town.

Exceptional service with the kids, beautiful story telling around the dishes, nice food, breathtaking view and cosy setting.

Amazing experience yet again..
Service, food and wine is absolutely supreme and the gastronomic experience beyond expectations

Incredible life experience, wonderfully delicate and elegant tasting menu, with products from the garden and Mediterranean of an exceptional quality .. the site is spectacular and spend the afternoon watching sunset over the bay is indescribable ..

The best restaurant in the world cannot be denied! Menu from 160, children's menu from 65.

Great place! Magnificent view of Menton. Dinner of exceptional quality. The service is perfect. The chef is very friendly. Totally worth its stars.

Very great originality. He is a real artist. a great culinary moment.

No word can describe the excellence of this establishment. Each dish is beyond taste, a real palette of emotions. The chef is a real gift in gastronomy.

I had a really nice evening and the food was great, but I expected much more from a 2-star restaurant. There were a few things that weren't good, like the cuisson from our langoustine and they forgot the aperitifs. The staff is very friendly.
