We came here for dinner and it was the best way to spend our last night in Nice. We were able to get an outdoor table without a reservation.
For my entree I got the ravioli truffle and burrata which was absolutely amazing! It is very filling and super tasty. The moment they brought it to the table I knew I made the right choice since it smelled amazing.
My fiance got the salmon risotto and he said it was alright. The risotto was hard and not fully cooked.

I don’t have enough words to describe how amazing this place is and how easy it is to fall in love with the food they create. Big part of the whole experience is the service, which is amazing! Especially our favorite Enzo (they are so lucky to have him as part of the team). We kept coming back for dinner for 3 evenings in the row, and for sure we will be coming back next time we are in Nice. Five star place.

I had a lovely lunch here. I walked in with no reservation around 12:30 but they filled up quite a bit by 1:30 and don't think you could walk in by that time.
I ordered the octopus salad as a starter and it was delectable. The octopus was tender and melted in my mouth. It was served with olives, tomatoes and potatoes and it was just delicious. My main was a sea bream served with local artichokes and again the flavors were outstanding.
This is a great spot! I recommend.

The food was really good, we ate raviolis, octopus, rissoto, and meat, and it was all perfect.
In addition, i did not like that in the bathroom there was no soap, and finally when we were paying, the waitress ask us if we wanted to give some tips, and we thougth that was a little agressive for his part, we are in france and it is not obligatory.
But in real conlcuisons we had a very good dinner.

It was an amazing experience. We literally bumped into this restaurant with a friend because of cabaret show which we heard out of the street. Atmosphere was so joyful, the interior so much French and the food just melted in my mouth. I went for sea bass with artichokes and my friend for risotto with sea food which was also super good. Big applause to chef.
The service was also quick, despite the fact that we came almost 30 mins before kitchen was closed.
Thanks a lot for adding unforgettable memory to our stay in Nice.

Pirouette
This intimate bistro was a grocery shop in a former life. Opened by the team behind Nice restaurant Les Agitateurs, this place serves up seasonal and fresh dishes playfully drawing inspiration from both classic and more exotic dishes: lamb in lettuce-leaf "tacos", "River Kwai" ravioli or, a classic if ever there was one, pigeon pithiviers and foie gras… On this short menu, most dishes are designed for sharing (for two people), to a background of trendy music. The "living" wine list also embraces the orange wine craze. Sunday brunch.
Nice - FRANCE

ONICE
O Nice, how your flavours captivate us! Lorenzo Ragni and Florencia Montes are the delightful and talented Italian-Argentinian couple behind this intimate address in the antiques quarter. After an international career in Michelin-starred restaurants, they met at Mauro Colagreco's Mirazur. Now on their own venture, they cook together to create sharp, punchy dishes that reflect the seasons and the local catch; they also strike out with the occasional bold – and most welcome – flavour combinations: gamberoni from San Remo, cherries, tomatoes and fresh almonds; girolles with Mediterranean clams and courgettes; Coco de Nice haricot beans and Tamaris Bay mussels with vadouvan... A restaurant with plenty of potential.
Nice - FRANCE

Le Canon
An appealing restaurant proposing food that is simple yet exacting: gazpacho of tomato, white peach and sheep's-milk Tomme cheese; mullet caught locally, ratatouille of vegetables from the surrounding hills and black rice; fontainebleau made with sheep's-milk yoghurt, wild blackberries and greengages. Hand-picked local suppliers, the occasional nod to the Mediterranean, good 100% natural wines, with recommendations from the owner, an attractive "vintage bistro" interior: this place has everything going for it.
Nice - FRANCE

Les Agitateurs
These agitators are far from the hot air breed, indeed they are full of talent! Chef Samuel Victori (former second chef at Passage 53) and his partner, Juliette Busetto, craft dishes rich in texture, flawlessly cooked and subtly seasoned. Local suppliers take the limelight: baker, fishermen, market gardener, breeder and potter. Michel Troisgros is the duo’s mentor and their concept is original, vibrant, amusing, disruptive food, served in a lively, buzzy vibe. Attentive, efficient service. The venue features two dining areas, one on the ground floor and the other in the basement with a wine cellar. The set menu changes regularly in line with the seasons. Just next door, Pirouette, a bistro founded by the same owners, offers dishes to share and natural wines.

Peixes Bonaparte
Between Place Garibaldi and the Old Town of Nice, this restaurant is run by the team behind Peixes Opéra. Here, too, they deploy their winning formula, starting with a large terrace that is a very popular spot on sunny days, followed by a range of seafood dishes (fish, tataki, sashimi, accras, oysters) and ceviche specialities. The contemporary blue and white "marine bistro" setting calls to mind Portugal or Greece. Behind the bar, a mixologist creates your cocktails. The lunch menu is really good value. This place is open all day, with a reduced menu until 7pm.

Flaveur
The Tourteaux brothers, Gaël and Mickaël, are inseparable. Not only did they attend the same hotel school in Nice (and sit exams in the same room) and both train at the Negresco during Alain Llorca's time there, but they also share the same motivation to run their own place, delivering good, honest, tasty fare. The result of this fraternal alliance is Flaveur, a project into which they ploughed all their energy to the point of receiving a Michelin star in 2011, and a second one in 2018.How might the "Tourteaux touch" be summed up? A certain kind of confidence, boldness and measured risk-taking. For example, when it comes to local ingredients and spices from afar, it's not either/or, it's both! A scorpion fish from Nice comes up against a fish broth enhanced with vadouvan, a heavily aromatic blend of Indian spices... They often go out on a limb, but the risk always pays off. Fine and masterful cuisine with character from start to finish. Bravo!

L'Aromate
This attractive restaurant is idyllically located near Place Masséna in the heart of Nice. The contemporary decor sports a black, white and gold colour scheme, untreated materials such as wood and granite and a glazed kitchen overlooking the dining room. The scene is set for chef, Mickaël Gracieux, armed with an iron-clad CV (Oustau de Baumanière, Plaza Athénée, Le Bristol, Louis XV, etc), to craft modern, creative and elegantly presented cuisine using top-quality produce from Nice and the Mediterranean (San Remo prawns, trumpet courgettes, local green crab, squid and citrus fruits, etc). A chef with the background and the ambition to achieve his high-flying goals.

JAN
South African chef Jan Hendrik van der Westhuizen, whose former careers involved working as a chef on private yachts in Monaco and as a photojournalist for a top magazine, has already lived several lives… In his cosy (20-seater), romantic eatery near the port, he signs creative, personal cuisine in the shape of a single set menu, in which he plays on sweet and sour combinations, and dabbles in smoky, spicy and acidic flavours, giving us an insight into South African cuisine. When it is time for cheese, you will discover a cheese bar opposite the restaurant with a buffet of some twenty different cheeses, a range of beverages, preserves and dried fruit.
