We wanted to try a top restaurant on our Monaco trip and decided on Elsa based on a Michelin Star and delicious reading tasting menu. We were the first to arrive on what turned out to be the last day of the season, the terrace...was closed so we ended up in the bright and art deco esque main room. The staff were superb all night and never too intrusive despite the restaurant never filling up. We opted fro the Tradition tasting menu, starting with the Bio Sama which was fresh but a bit plain. This was followed by prawns, definitely the best tasting prawns I or my wife have ever eaten incredible! Next was Gnocchi which was perfectly prepared, very creamy. Spaghetti Bottarga' followed this was...
We ate at Elsa tonight. We were a table of The whole concept is a con. They jump on the bandwagon of organic food but the products they choose is total rubbish and super cheap but charge ridiculous pricing. Nothing tastes! Real Michelin star...restaurants are in Belgium, Switzerland, UK etc…proper food, proper taste and yes of course it will be expensive. At Elsa they serve a dish of cucumber and barley for euro, houmus but without any bread for euro! There is no duck, lobster, fillet of beef etc…oh they have red mullet that stinks and chicken thighs….awful experience. Elsa is part of sbm and most probably they paid to get a Michelin star for marketing and the place is even named not after a...
We made a last-minute reservation just a couple of days before and were thrilled to get it. A great ambience, a service by a staff who really cares, shows patience as well. A presentation of olive oils with bread and unique food with a fresh...taste made our day. We don't like to waste food or over-eat so we opted for just a few dishes and requested them to split for us so that we can taste everything and they obliged without making us feel uncomfortable. They presented us with a few extra courses which were great. Drink selection was perfect! We will visit this restaurant again in our next trip.
Have a long dinner with colleagues, the food concept the presentation and the menu is confused. They charge a lot but don’t offer premium dishes like fillet of beef or seabass or lobster. They offer cheap cuts and cheap fish but they charge way...too much. The food is not great and we would never return. The place is usually empty and it takes ages for the food to come out of the kitchen as if the chef had forgotten.

Great service. Disgusting food. Cheap products. Super expensive for very unsatisfying dinner. Menu contained chickpeas, cumcumber soap, beetroot tart, red mullet, Muesili with yoghurt and res fruits…..this was the gastronomic fixed menu for euros. It’s so bad that we all started laughing. How they...have been given a Michelin star is astounding maybe for the service but the food is total ****.
We had to reschedule our dinner as it was raining and la Vigie not the right place anymore. We went back some meters and found a table at Elsa. What an amazing evening. Extremely friendly, attentive and flexible service. The food was excellent accompanied with...helpful suggestions for the Wine. Definitely a place to come back again.
The food is average, the price is extremely high. Inattentive service... but frankly speaking the worst is food -tiny portions of very average dishes. Definitely I do not recommend. The only positive thing is the view... but please enjoy it from somewhere else
Odd menu. Tasteless food. Terrible sevice. Pretentious. I wonder why this restaurant exists in sucj a wonderful place! Will gondown now tonthe pool and eat a nice club sandwich.

the concept is all wrong, thats why its always empty even though they have the best location. the kitchen is slow and not motivated.
I've heard that the food here is good, but the owner of this place was very rude.
