Gault&Millau's review 2026

A beautiful dining room, a true restaurant, and a Formula 1 driver at the helm. In the prestigious setting of the Métropole, the Ambassadeurs—led by the highly experienced Christophe Cussac, who worked for many years alongside Joël Robuchon—offer the Principality’s finest classic dining experience, just a stone’s throw from the Casino. The clientele is more likely to arrive in a Lamborghini than in rags—which is fitting for the maestro’s brilliant—and rather pricey—menu: lobster lasagna with tarragon and spinach, John Dory with artichokes and cilantro broth, squab with lettuce and creamy Parmesan, or rib steak with bone marrow and wine sauce for those days when you’re craving meat, along with lovely classic desserts like the Grand Marnier soufflé with blackcurrant. Small-portion dishes like those served at Les Ateliers, a grand menu for €295, and the service to match. A cellar of fine wines, expertly recommended.
