Excellent last dinner en coté de azure- Ikaro for the win! We shared the Beef Carpaccio, Fried Artichoke, Lobster Tempura, and Oysters, delicious! Chef greeted us personally and asked if we wanted to personalize any dish, which he offered to do with ease. The wine recommendations were on point, and the Tira Misu was special, and delicious! Bon Appetite! Enjoy your meal. We did!!

I have to say, I had my doubts but the food ended up being amazing. The steak was juicy and just right cooked, it came with truffle zucchini and fries that were delicious, my salmon ceviche was delightful and light and the truffle sauce for the fries was incredible. Not to mention the oysters!!! Pretty expensive per person but the food was truly delicious!

Best seafood in all on Nice! Everything is made with fresh ingredients and from the chefs own vision, and every dish comes together beautifully. The ceviche was the standout dish for sure, I also loved the zucchini beignets, we ate them as 'dessert' unfortunately I didn't get a photo of either dish but it doesn't matter because no matter what you order from here it will be delicious!

Our best restaurant experience in the French Riviera. Chef Pasquale is very friendly, he personally took our order. The pesto pasta was the best we have had. He interacts with each table making sure everyone has a great experience. There are many Italian restaurant options in the area but this is a little gem.

The food was so good we came back the next day. The steak was perfect and had amazing flavor. Chef Pasquale was so welcoming and friendly along with the others (shout out to Elvis and Raquel)! Our dining experience was fantastic and we highly recommend eating here!

Michelin Quality Exceptional Cuisine!!! My family and I recently had the pleasure of dining at this remarkable restaurant in Old Town, Nice, and I can honestly say it was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. From start to finish, each dish was a celebration of unique flavor—truly a magical experience for the palate. We’re already counting down the days until our next visit! The culinary artistry here is evident, thanks to the talented Chef Pasqualé Esposto from Puglia, whose extensive global experience shines through in every bite. His dishes are a perfect blend of tradition, modern, and innovative flair, creating a truly memorable dining experience. Highlights of our meal: Shrimp Thai Salad: Fresh, vibrant, and perfectly balanced. Wagyu Beef Ham: An unexpected delight. The Wagyu beef ham was decadently rich, melt-in-your-mouth tender with a subtle marbling that elevated its savory profile. Caserecce al Pesto: This dish was a testament to simple yet profound flavors. The pasta was perfectly al dente, coated in a vibrant, herbaceous pesto bursting with fresh basil, garlic, and pine nuts. Angus Argentinian Beef: Juicy, flavorful, and expertly cooked to perfection, this steak was a standout. Ginger Scallops: These were cooked to perfection—seared beautifully with a golden crust, tender and bursting with sweetness. Tiramisu: Rich, creamy, and authentic. The best we’ve ever had! Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable, flavourful, and extraordinary dining experience in Nice!

No words. An amazing hidden gem in Nice. Absolutely fantastic food and service. If you would like fancy dining, Ikaro has a beautiful restaurant which is also picture friendly. And if you would love to have a casual dinner on the streets of Nice then Ikaro has got you covered aswell. We were a party of 2 and shared 4 starters and desert. As I said before, no words can describe what my tastebuds went through. You just have to try it and enjoy!
