This was our favorite meal of our trip to Nice!…read more Warning: Reservations are hard to come by we dropped by and only reservations available were for 9pm two nights later. We took it. The place is super relaxed. 5 maybe 6 tables which made the difficulty of reservations more understandable. Prix fix menu - 4 appetizers to choose from, 4 entrees and 4 desserts. We were there with somewhat of a limited diet, but the options were awesome. We got a cauliflower appetizer and an artichoke one. Both were excellent. We all had the cod for dinner also delicious - served in a bath of traditional fish soup and with potatoes. The dessert was also excellent - we got the goat cheese in olive oil and garlic, the cream cheese with blueberry compote, lemon cheesecake and cinnamon "tiramisu". Every bite was full of flavor and such cool takes on the food. Now the intangibles - we arrived for our 9pm reservation, restaurant closes at 9:30 and we probably didn't walk out until 11:15 and there was still another table of 8 people dining. The host/waiter, Sebastian, was awesome. So friendly and we at no point felt rushed. In fact the opposite. When our daughter was slow in finishing her meal he joked with her instead of hurrying us along. Once we finished our main dish, he casually brought us our dessert and because we didn't order his favorite (we didn't know) he brought us out an extra to enjoy. We felt a little bad so somewhat accelerated the dessert phase so we could square up and leave. Instead he was unhurried, he casually cleared our table and chatted with us for a bit. It took us another 15 minutes before we finally said could we get the bill. He brought it to us another 5-7 minutes later. We had a great experience and one of our best meals in France, if not the best.

But I've been…read morehere a few times and each time the food has been between OK and good, but nothing particularly memorable. With that said, at €20 this is excellent value for money. Overall, I'd say the food is a 3.5/5 but the value is 5/5. I'd recommended Chez Palmyre if you want a real Nice experience, especially on a budget. Be sure to make a reservation well in advance.

Tip: The cuisine here is Corsican, and everything we tried on their menu looked wonderful and tasted even better than it looked :-) The atmosphere is bright and cherry; the service is exceptional, and the food just may Rock your World! After a leisurely and totally satisifying dinner, we paid the check and went back to our hotel.  The prices turned out to be very reasonable given the quality of the food and the service - I'm going to make a point of coming back the next time I'm in Nice.

This a true full service restaurant. Staff were accommodating and were able to explain the menu…read more I knew I wanted the lamb shank and it was very satisfying. Fairly tender served over creamy mashed potatoes. The sauce was sweet and not my go to for entrees, but it was a fruit sweet and toned down with herbs. Extensive wine list. I had the luburon which was fine for a table wine. My neighbors shared their bottle of 2017 gamay and I would order it instead. Bread and olives were nice starters. I liked how they cured it. Not overpowering brine with herbs. This is in the higher price range of the area, but the setting and staff is more polished. My adjacent dining patrons had the prix fixe menu. They did not love their entrees but had no complaints ( a fish and pork option). Oddly the establishment had only one bathroom.

Service is friendly and attentive and knowledgeable . Here in this country , one is never rushed . Love that part of the culture to always enjoy dining with such unhurried pleasure . House red wine is very good. Wow!! The raclette ( a type of cheese ) beef burger is massive !! And extremely juicy and tasty . This could be definitely be shared with 2 or 3 persons . Fries are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside ..nice ! I don't know if I'll even have room for the salad. I did save some room for it. Lightly tossed in a red vinaigrette dressing, it tasted so fresh with tomatoes and seasoned croutons . Raclette Cheese is a semi-hard, cow's milk Alpine cheese from Switzerland or France known for its rich, nutty flavor and smooth, gooey melt. And this cheese did not disappoint in its gooey factor for my burger . Double yum! I invite you to dine here when in Nice. Come casually dressed solo or with friends . Bon appétit

We started with the burrata appetizer which was creamy perfection. For our mains we had the Prime rib and the Lamb chops. Both were cooked how we liked. They were seasoned well and had excellent flavor. We had a delicious side of creamy whipped potatoes. The meat had an excessive amount of fat and gristle and it seemed that half of what we got was left behind on the plate. For dessert we split a tiramisu which wasn't tiramisu, instead it was marscapone with a Carmel sauce and a cinnamon crunch topping. It was good but not what we expected. We sat directly in front of the grill which was cool watching the grill master at work. Waitstaff were very nice. Overall, I've had better steaks and chops.

The food was great! We had the seafood risotto, salmon and scallop salad and the buratta crustinis. My favorite was the crustinis. They were to die for. The cheese is so fresh you can tell there's a huge difference because we'll you're in France! I was slightly underwhelmed by the salad, but it was still good and worth what I paid. They're very English friendly and offer wines by the glass, quarter bottle, half and full bottle. Great dinner spot!

The restaurant faces the beach so you get really nice views and if you went for sunset I could see it being even better.

Even though I'm not a huge fan of seafood, I ended up ordering their twist on pissaladière as my starter and the salmon as my main course, and I couldn't have been happier with my meal. The quality and flavor of the fish in both dishes was some of the best I've ever had. The chocolate dessert made for a rich and satisfying finish. I especially loved experiencing something regional with a fine dining twist. Everything was beautifully plated, and service was excellent. When it began to drizzle, staff instantly moved all outdoor tables under a dry awning. They timed the courses well and thoughtfully refilled our wine glasses without being annoyingly over-attentive. From beginning to end, this was a smooth, perfectly balanced experience in flavors, aesthetic, and atmosphere.

We enjoyed our walk to the restaurant through the more modern (less old) part of Nice vs the old town where we had spent most of our time during our stay. I sat on a plump leather chair which I thought was unusual for dining (more akin to sipping scotch). They had a menu where you pick from a set of entrees, mains, and desserts. They brought out bread with a small sampling of what I think was chic pea spread with a foamy creme fraise on top - very good. The split pea soup with sausage was delicious. The duck was good, but a bit chewy. For dessert, I had the sorbet of the day and we ordered the souffle which was not on the fixed menu. I think you have to try soufflé at least once in France.

We loved this place! Stumbled upon it during our trip to Cannes. It's in a corner of a bustling…read morestreet of food options in Cannes. We got the wine, the spaghetti, the cod and lamb.

Unfortunately, they seemed ill-prepared.We had a 1:15 PM reservation but weren't seated until 1:45 PM--and only after we grabbed someone's attention and said we were willing to sit outside between two smokers (side note: the smoking culture here is intense). Then it took nearly another 30 minutes to get our food, which we only received after asking where it was.I ordered the truffled pasta. Despite the generous portion of truffles, I couldn't taste any truffle flavor, which was disappointing. We had an hour and a half for lunch but had to rush out to make it back to the conference center in time for our appointment.Perhaps this place is fine during non-peak times, but I'd avoid it when any convention is in town--they clearly can't handle the influx of business.

The reservation wasn't easy, but I eventually scored an early opening time slot. The restaurant specializes in traditional Nicoise cuisine, and is housed in old town Nice. My kids and I were seated in the wine cellar, which felt like a cool stone cave. My son had the lamb chops and I had steak served with a slab of basil butter. The swiss chard gnocchi was served with sauce of choice that included gorgonzola, but honestly it didn't even need sauce it was so pillowy and full of flavor on its own. For dessert I stuck with old faithful chocolate mousse and it was divine. The service was very French, but still attentive and the meal will stay in my memory for years to come.

Located on a charming Street in Old Nice called Rue Droite, I felt like I had stepped back into the past when entering this restaurant.

I highly recommend this spot if you are fortunate enough to find yourself in Nice!
