La Cabane de L'Ecailler

TOTAL RIP OFF. Waited over an hour for our food. We were a party of four - we only had main courses as follows; 1 steak and chips, 1 calamari, sea bass between two. Four glasses of wine, 1 dessert. Bill came to 354 euro ! We are used to paying a lot but this was really shocking. Food was nice enough but we felt like complete mugs.

Nice meal, fresh seafood, we just felt that they were trying too hard to be over fancy with their great food. The electronic menu was a little different but it didn't have photos of all the menu items. We tried the sushi starter with a fish main. Nice decor, ideal location probably a little expensive compared to the others on the harbour. Wine list was small bug comprehensive. All in all a nice night out.

Had to wait 30 minutes to get the menu, then no one came to take the order. Had to find the waiter to order, the same with the bill. And the food was so so. There are much better places in Cap ferrat. The waiters excuse was that he was a student.

The food was really good, the picture I posted was actually kids food that most restaurants have as equal as dog food, but here they did a super good fish and pasta with taste. As for us they prepared the fish for us super good, desert was also amazing. Highly recommended.

Visited twice in mid and late June - both for lunch - once on Sunday and once on Thursday beware the latter there is a street market outside so car access is tricky. Despite wishing to explore the menu rather more, on both occasions we selected Fruits de Mer again - quite superb. On the first visit we asked about the oysters and were advised they were not on top form - they nevertheless they gave us some free of charge - and to be honest they were not too bad. On the second visit, the oyster were back in top form which is remarkable for the time of year. Lobster was cooked to perfection and utterly fresh. The crab was good but lacked some flavour, that we enjoyed on previous visits- again time of year. Good wine list with reasonable prices Deserts not quite the best - but we go for the seafood- and service which is always excellent
