The story

L'Agapè – Michelin-Recommended Mediterranean Dining on the Côte d'Azur in Cros-de-Cagnes, Nice

L’Agapè – A Name That Speaks of Generosity

Chef Guillaume Winterstein and his partner Morgane David have opened a restaurant that faces the sea, in the heart of Cros-de-Cagnes, just west of Nice. The name they chose, L’Agapè, comes from an ancient Greek word for unconditional, selfless love – the kind given without expecting anything in return. It sets the tone for what they offer: a place where the welcome is warm, the setting is relaxed, and the cooking is driven by the Mediterranean.

Cooking That Reflects the Coast

The cuisine here is modern Mediterranean, with a strong focus on seafood. The menu changes with the seasons and the catch, prepared with precision and respect for the ingredients. Chef Winterstein’s approach is refined but never fussy – dishes that let the freshness of the fish and produce speak. The dining room opens onto the Promenade de la Plage, with outdoor seating that puts you right by the water. It’s the kind of spot where lunch lingers into the afternoon.

A Michelin-Recognised Address

L’Agapè earned a Michelin recommendation in 2026, a nod to the quality of the cooking and the experience. The guide notes the restaurant’s charm and the skill of the kitchen. For those seeking a memorable meal on the French Riviera without the formality of a starred temple, this is a place that delivers. The wine list is thoughtfully curated, and the service – led by Morgane David – is attentive and genuine.

Whether you come for a long lunch with the sound of the waves or a dinner under the stars, L’Agapè offers a genuinely hospitable taste of the Côte d’Azur.
