I spent 11 days in Nice, and dined at La Cucina for 9 of those evenings. My only regret is wasting…read moretwo nights at nearby restaurants--nothing compared to this place. I tried almost everything on the menu: everything was served hot, extremely fresh, and full of authentic Italian flavor. Great balance of tastes and a wide drink selection. The homemade cocktail, available only here, was my favorite. They're open only for dinner, and although I waited about an hour, it was absolutely worth it. The place was very clean, and the staff were incredibly kind and professional. Highly recommended

We waited close to an hour outside with no formal waiting list. Other people were brought in before us that arrived after us, not sure why. The service was good once when we were seated.

Food was fresh, flavourful, and served in very generous portions. The service was fast, attentive, and very clever at convincing us to get desserts (without being pushy). We all felt satisfied and very happy with our meals. Highly recommend any of the pasta dishes, we had four different pastas and all were good. The calzone was gigantic and very generously stuffed with toppings and cheese.

The menu is short and sweet with 4 starters and 4 mains you can combine. The wine list is very good. The food is one of the best experiences I have ever had in Nice; fresh, seasonal, creative, beautifully displayed and made with love. They have their own parking - don't worry about the obscure location. All in all - a gorgeous place with amazing food. Extra star for the fact that Portishead was playing when we arrived.

Not too convinced we kept walking and then quickly we went back to ask for a table... best decision ! My husband got a Negroni and I got an espresso martini (which I was surprised by it!) We decided with the truffle pasta and the sea food pasta which both were AMAZING! For dessert we got tiramisu and it was delicious. High recommend this place. service 10/10 Food 10/10 Ambiance 10/10
