Must do in nice, we came for lunch but I have heard dinner for sunset is amazing. The food is average, I wouldn't go out of my way to go back and eat it for the price but the restaraunt ambiance sitting over the Mediterranean with a gentle breeze is well worth the visit and price tag. We had the octopus, sea bass, and zucchini fritters. I would order the sea bass again, it was cooked perfectly and something the French Riviera is known for. read more

One of my favorite places we visited in Nice. It was cool seeing a cruise shit depart from the harbor. We ordered hummus and a couple of drinks. Solid food and drinks, nothing to overly rave about. We went for the vibes, which is why you should go. It's worth it. The service was quick and it was relaxing sitting by the water and enjoying the music. Someone even jumped in the water for a quick swim. Definitely worth the trip. read more

Ambience and service were awesome- the MGR was so great and friendly. Food was good but not fantastic, would say at least a solid 7.5/10. We shared several dishes and will say the portion sizes are a bit smaller but we really enjoyed the experience! read more

This was one of our favorite restaurants we went to in Nice. The location and views from the restaurant is spectacular. The food was delicious and service was amazing. I really enjoyed their cocktails and wine section was ample. For me the steaks was the star of the show. Juicy and tender. It was seasoned well and with a glass of wine with the views and well your in heaven. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who is in the area. read more

Overall disappointed, the views are spectacular, but the value isn't worth it. Service was poor, server rushed us and the actual food was cold, lacked flavor and came out within 10 minutes of us ordering. Not worth the price, I wouldn't recommend! Although the older gentleman serving us drinks was outstanding and so friendly. read more

Must see to believe this location. Perched on top of a rock, overlooking the ocean, amazing!! Great food and drinks, great service!

You go to this place for the views and atmosphere. The food was fine, but nothing exceptional or memorable. The staff was friendly and the experience was worth it for the beautiful views, but if you are really a foodie then I might suggest somewhere else. read more

I remember clearly how terrible my dinning experience was here. This is definitely the worst French restaurant I have ever been to in my entire life, the food, the service, nothing is good except the natural environment which is the best luck of this restaurant. It was our mistake that we did not make reservations for this popular restaurant, but we've been very patient and waited there for three hours (three hours!!!) and we finally got our table and a pretty good view. After we order, the bread came. Couple of bread came with strange spots on them, me and my partner kindly ask the server if the bread was mould or over-baked, and we would like to exchange for a few that appear cleaner. The server took a look on it and suddenly started to yell at us! Me and my partner was in shock! The server accused us for being ignorant for how little knowledge we know about French food and French pastry. And of course he said something in French that neither of us Asians understood (I wish could, my partner understood a few, he told me was very unkind). We got attention from most of the crowds from that night. We almost feel like we are eating in shame for the rest of the meal... I don't remember anything about food, almost can't taste anything good... me and my partner didn't even had any conversation that dinner which was very rare between us. Even though if we are wrong Do you think this is the kind of "high restaurant service" manner that customers should receive? read more

Amazing ambiance, fantastic service, and delicious food. A must visit for a special occasion or to cap off your visit to Nice!

I think this restaurant is a must visit while in Nice for even just the atmosphere. We were early to our reservation so we got drinks at the bottom of the restaurant which was nice and relaxing. We ordered the zucchini flower fritters as an appetizer and then got the risotto with pan-fried prawns and the grilled beef filet. Everything was very tasty. The service wasn't great but we still enjoyed our dinner here. read more

It gets 3 stars for the view. As a wedding photographer I can say that the food was on par with a wedding. It was bad, it wasn't mind blowing. The service was ok.. Everything was ok. read more

We had an amazing table set on our own private level - so we were certainly socially distanced ;). Staff was very attentive even though there was no direct line of sight from the rest of the restaurant. Food was delicious; my prawn risotto was rich and flavorful, and the entire dining experience was joy and one I'll always remember. We were surrounded by water on three sides and were serenaded by the crashing waves. As it was April, it was a little chilly once the beautiful sunset was over, but the restaurant supplied cozy blankets. Highly recommended. read more

This review is based off of atmosphere and drinks. Didn't get a chance to try their food! Le Plongeoir is a must see if you're in Nice! Beautiful location and atmosphere. Especially in the summer! We had a pretty packed schedule this visit so we only had time for drinks but it was amazing! We got a seat on the bottom half near the water and we're able to comfortably enjoy our drinks. Staff was friendly and prices were fair! Wish I could review the food as it looked incredible. I'll be back! read more

Le Plongeoir - Mediterranean Near Me - Nice, 06

Best dining experience I've ever had! Definitely make a reservation here right before sunset. We made ours a few weeks in advance. This is on the next cove over from Nice so we took the train (after visiting Monaco all day) and walked to the water from there. We loved the lemon tart the most but risotto and filet were mmm. read more

We had a reservation and we're rudely told we can't enter because the reservation was not in our name. Until they were able to verify the reservation, we were spoken to very rudely and disrespected. Even with empty seats, they sat us in the back on the restaurant. Will not return. read more

Expect to put down a deposit while making reservation at this restaurant which is typical for most of the high end restaurants in Nice. The restaurant is very photogenic and the views & the atmosphere cannot be beat. Enjoy the views from the restaurant which is a little above the street level entry or the bar which is a little below the street level and right on the water. Try to book your dinner about 7:30 PM - then you can really enjoy the sun going down over the water while you have a leisurely dinner. Be forewarned that it can get a little hot as the sun goes down & shine directly into the restaurant deck. It can be a very romantic experience but expect your fellow diners to get up, walk right next to your table & try to get photos as the sun goes down. The wait staff was a little rushed or acted a little "over it" but they were young & may be new staff due to the pandemic. The food was outstanding - the flavor shone through each dish, nothing was overcooked nor hidden behind thick sauces, the desserts were out of this world and not to mention the delicious cocktails & the espresso. There was an older gentleman who may have been the host or the general manager that came to each table after dinner to have a brief conversation & asked about the experience. Nice, classy touch. Be sure to snap some pics on the way out when it's dark & the restaurant/bar is beautifully lit. Highly recommended & would definitely be back. read more

The worst experience ever. There was an issue with my reservation ...admittedly my fault. I called the restaurant as I had inadvertently cancelled it ...they asked that I send an email with name and info which I did and they would put the reservation back and agreed to move it up 30 minutes. I arrived at the restaurant and they said no reservation but would seat me at my original time and to check back in to see if they could seat me earlier. The hostest proceeded to tell me she couldn't seat us at all. When I questioned her....she said it was my fing mistake. I asked to speak to the manager and she said she was the f'ing manager. I finally did speak with the manager who admitted they never opened my email. I said that there was no reason for the hostess to yell at me and to swear at me. She apologized and offered to seat me at my original time. At this point my guests were so upset that we decided to leave. The hostess yelled at me again as I walked out that it was my fing fault for cancelling the reservation. At no point did I say that I didn't make that mistake and only stated that I made an immediate call and was asked to send an email to get the reservation back. No need for the rude treatment. read more

GORGEOUS restaurant with spectacular views of the Mediterranean and the peaceful sound of waves crashing while you dine. The staff is very friendly, outgoing, and helpful. The dinner was delicious and the meat was done just as I asked it to be. This is a must-try restaurant even if you just stop by for a cocktail or a starter. read more

I was looking forward to this dinner, unfortunately our luggage was lost by Aegean Air coming from Mykonos. My wife and I were dressed pretty casually so we called the restaurant to explain that we had no luggage and to ask if we could cancel our reservation given the situation, the woman on the phone said that wouldn't be an issue. They then charged us €100 for cancelling the next day. We were never told that they would charge us given the circumstances. I would have shown up in my travel clothes had I known they would be so unaccommodating. Long story short do not trust them with your credit card info in advance, there are plenty of better restaurants that don't require details and they were not at all accommodating given our situation. read more

This location is stunning. The food is very good. The service however was terrible. Our waitress was awful - rude and incompetent. She forgot our drink order (30 minute wait) and by the time we could flag her down to remind her our food was cold. She claimed the wind blew our drink order ticket away, but then she also forgot my daughters drink. We spent most of the time trying to get her attention and ended up with empty wine glasses and no water refill. Not the kind of service you expect for the prices. She was more attentive to some tables. Other staff were kind and courteous, but she ruined the experience for us. This is a lovely spot for a picture, but plenty of other restaurants with much better food and service- many with lovely views as well. read more

This restaurant is absolutely stunning. We didn't have reservations, but they still accommodated us. Got a table and an hour to eat. The restaurant sits right on the water. The views are stunning! Wish we had planned better and made reservations so we wouldn't be so rushed. The girls and I enjoyed our entrees. I had the sea bass and the girls had the steak. It was fresh and flavorful. The staff is wonderful. If you are in Nice, do go check this place out. There is one table that seats 6 and faces the ocean. Next time I go, I want that table! Viewing the sunset with a glass of champagne would be magical! read more

Food was good and waitress and waiters at the restaurant were very nice. But then we went down to the bar area to get a drink and they weren't as kind. We got two drinks and one person in our party didn't want a drink, basically we all had to get drinks or we had to leave. Very odd. There was no body there when we were down there so it was odd that they would make us leave when only one person out of 3 didn't want a drink. Great view and food but maybe over rated. read more

Unfortunately a horrible experience. it was a very windy day and we were sat in the back of the restaurant that was not covered from the wind. We kindly asked to move when we sat, and then asked again when our menus and tableware was flying off the table due to the high speed wind. We were told no, even as we watched a couple ask to move and get moved without hesitation. As it is early May, there were only 3 other couples sitting with ample space for us to move. The food was meh and considered its price was not worth it. The actual restaurant was very cool aesthetically but I recommend just going and taking a picture, eating there is not worth it!!!!! read more

I love the title of the 5 stars, for sure it matches Le Plongeoir. For me the ambiance, the settings on the table, the staff, and the location are all elements of the quality of the food or dining experience. I mean you can have a great dish, but in a horrible location? Bad staff? People smoking all over your food? No merci !!! Both the food and the location are tops. My only hesitation on making this review is that it will probably draw more and more people to Le Plongeoir and make it more difficult to just "pop in" for lunch or diner read more

Le Plongeoir - Poisson de jour - Mediterranean Near Me - Nice, 06

The most beautiful setting in Nice if you ask me. The menu is a little pricey (9 euros for a glass of wine, 16 for cocktails) but worth it for the the place. The planche is nicely presented but not excellent or copius. It does get a little busy quite quickly for apéro and if you want to eat at the restaurant, make sure to book in advance. Staff are slow, not the friendliest or most competent but like I said, that setting! read more

Le Plongeoir - Planche Mixte 24 euros - Mediterranean Near Me - Nice, 06

This place is awesome! The service the food. Not to mention the location. We were very lucky to get in, you must go if your in Nice.

Super disappointing. I had read that this place had vegan offerings, and I had seen a menu with falafel and hummus. The menu has apparently completely changed. Two starters were vegan, but the tofu starter had literally 4 small bites of tofu and lacked any flavor. The fried squash flowers were as fried as expected and nothing special. When I asked if they could make a vegan plate with vegetables and hummus (both of which were in other menu items), she said they could do a vegetable plate. The vegetable plate consisted of microwaved peas, peppers, radishes, and asparagus, and we were charged 32 Euro. I wanted to go to this restaurant for the view, and we were seated as far from the view as possible, so nothing made up for the lackluster meal. I realize we were unique in needing vegan options at a non-vegan restaurant, but it's 2023. Please make a dish with the vegan items on your menu. Grab a drink at the bar and find dinner elsewhere. read more

Here's the thing, they have a limited menu serving beef, and the owner seemed to be taking orders and will offer the beef only to be cooked rare or medium because "they are not American and in France they eat the beef rare" Ok. So if I asked if it could be cooked medium rare because I rather it not be red but not over cooked medium, then I get evaluated as an American? Ok. Seems like they are demonstrating in France that they now lack the culinary skills to please their customers cooking a beef filet or it's their way of the highway. I though France was the place to eat. Well at least I can now tell the owner that America can do it better in giving a customer a preference to how they may enjoy their food... but I think mostly tourists come here and majority of them appear to be Americans... besides that, the food was not worth the price. You're simply paying for location and views with 3 star food and service. read more

The place is beautiful. Our appetizer great, but our main entrees were not good. My sea brime, potatoes, and "vegetables" were cold when they arrived, took an hour to get to the table, the fish dry and tasteless. It was the least appetizing meal I've had in France. I hate writing a review like this, but when you have 3 entrees on a menu at a nice restaurant, those 3 entrees should be incredible. My husband had the risotto. The mushrooms were the best part of his, but the fish as a whole was disappointing. read more

waitress was very mean. ignored us after she got our appetizer wrong and blamed it on us. waited 45 mins for her to bring the check.

We celebrated my son's 16th birthday here, and we had a very enjoyable experience. The food was fresh and the preparation was very creative. The atmosphere and the view are amazing. We found the staff to be attentive and friendly. You pay a bit more for the location, but I think that it is well worth it. read more

Beautiful, friendly service. The beef was good, the seafood wonderful but a bit salty. Nothing beats the atmosphere, however.

Wonderful place above the med. Great view of the harbour, friendly staff and excellent cuisine!

This restaurant is by far one of my favorites! It is filled with an extremely friendly staff, with great help in knowing what to order. The seafood risotto was absolutely delicious! Make sure you make reservations in advance and get there early for some drinks at the bar downstairs. Incredible experience, I loved this place! read more
