Restaurant I'Ulivo - Menton

The food here is very good. It is worth going for the pork alone. And the location in the market square. Service was efficient, but my husband and i felt slightly uncomfortable throughout. The older man, the proprietor, was perhaps old enough to be a bit of a 'character ', a bit grumpy, a bit brusque. The younger man acted as if he was too important really to be a waiter. His mannerisms were more those of an estate agent or perhaps an investment banker. We weren 't made to feel welcome at all, although they weren 't particularly rude.

I would avoid the fish soup on the set menu because it was a bit thin and lacking in complexity and depth, I suspect there are better akternativeshowever everything else was excellent. The mixed seafood pacheri pasta was excellent and a meal in itself and my wife enjoyed the seafood on a skewer.

We had dinner here during the Easter holidays. Wonderful dishes, everyone in our group raves about the seafood and vegetable dishes. Will definitely return.

We have eaten at l'Ulvio in Winter Spring and Summer and have always been delighted. For us this is the best of the group of restaurants clustered in the Place du Cap and the Sardinian menu is a little bit different to the usual fayre. Service is considered but not fussy and on one occasion i noted they went more than the extra mile to accommodate a family who had a daughter with exceptional needs. For this I was more than one impressed. My preference is for grilled fish and Sardinian wine but the Pork is a speciality and also excellent. We will certainly go back.

Absolutely delicious. enjoyed each part of the meal. I suppose they should consider applying for michelin a day later). It's not the cheapest place, but I still give them a farm and I highly recommend it.
