Restaurant L'Estrilha: "Excellent Southern French Cruisine here!!!!!!!!!!" Restaurant L'Estrilha Tip by TravelerM

A nice setting of the restaurant with friendly, helpful and English speaking staff. :o) I would definitely go there again when I visit Nice again!!!! Yes, indeed, I went again in June, 2003, a year from my last visit. The food was still DELICIOUS!!! How I miss it!!!!!!

Favorite Dish: Mixed Seafood cooked with fish soup in a pot/urn (?)!!!!! Superb!!!! Any seafood lover should definitely give it a try!!! Totoally incredible!!!! Oh, it takes 45 minutes to cook so order 'Assortiment de Mamie' for the appetizer. I don't know how to describe it. It's mainly a combination of vegetables and a little cheese and fish. Some are stuffed and some are deep fried. They were all very fresh and tasted flavorful and smooth. Just try it and you'd love it. I was told it is the specality of the restaurant. The fish soup was also the best I've ever had!! And don't forget to save some space for the desserts. They all taste out of this world!!!! :o)
