We discovered this place when we couldn't get a table at La Cucina. It did not disappoint and was a lucky find. We ended up eating here twice while in Nice. Servers were still kind and plenty of tables on the patio. Most tender chicken with delicious mushroom sauce I have ever eaten. All their good was well prepared.
Visiting Nice for a few days and needed to find a good restaurant, so I Yelped and found this place! As always, Yelp didn't let me down. This place is great and my Lamb Shank was awesome! Loved the plumb sauce, a true authentic sauce and fish. Timothy also provided an excellent service. Try it!! Well, got back here the next night and this time I tried the Chicken Filet wt mushroom sauce. This too was an amazing meal! Tender chicken and excellent dates and side veggie and rice pilaf... try it!
I wanted a nice and unique restaurant to celebrate my husband's birthday since we have traveled all the way from the USA to Italy on our ski trip. Nice is a post trip stop. After reading the comments and reviews, I decided to try La Femme du Boulanger. We were first greeted warmly by a lady host and then were so impressed with the vibrant colors of all sorts of local vegetables, fruits and mostly the delicious dishes, every dish we ordered from the homemade pate, lamb shank and veal liver! A lovely restaurant host surprised us by singing happy birthday in French along with a sparkler on the dessert we ordered. Other patrons followed the lead! My husband said it was one of the best birthday celebrations he had! Li from South Carolina
Though delayed multiple times, we got in before dinner time and this time we were lucky! The first dinner choice at La Femme Du Boulanger was excellent! My prawn dish with fresh noodles and his duck leg dish were both cooked nicely with full of flavor! My prawns were fresh and cooked nicely. The prawn had that tight and slightly chewy texture and clean. The noodles below was fresh made, with deep flavor, somewhat reminded me of Chinese noodles - the texture and flavor that tasted like soy sauce based. His duck was braised with some sweeter sauce but cooked beautifully- finally not raw food!!!! Of course I had to order Tiramisu in an Italian restaurant when the main dish is in right portion. It was one of the best #tiramisu I ever had. Not too sweet and the coffee taste is mild. The sweet crumbles and blueberries added a bit twist in texture and fun in taste. The cream was airy and light, paired perfectly. Will go back for sure. #nicefrance #nicerestaurants
Great meal in France! This was a fantastic first dinner in Nice right off the main drag. We had reservation for 7pm and arrived a few minutes early. We waited a few minutes while they prepped our table and we were seated promptly. The vibe was cool, very French cafe feeling on the streets. The waiters were kind and attentive was you settled in. They patiently answered all our menu questions. We ordered the fois gras (because when in France), the duck and the octopus. All the food was excellent, the fois gras was perfect (although probably wouldn't order it again for ethical reasons). The octopus was absolutely perfect, very very easy to screw up, but they nailed it; every bit melting in our mouths. The duck breast was perfect, juicy and cooked to perfect. All the dishes were served with plenty of accompaniment. Great meal for a great French experience. Would highly recommend. read more
Walked over from a nearby hotel and grabbed a table by myself along the busy street. The servers were very friendly and spoke English well. It happened to be happy hour so I was able to take advantage of some great drink deals. For my dinner, I ordered the duck with vegetables, potatoes, and added a side of ratatouille. It was all very good and the portions were large for the price. The orange sauce was unique and it seemed to have orange peels in it as well. While this might be more of a touristy spot with this location, it was a true French menu, which was my goal. The food and service were very good and I'll come back. read more
Quality/Quantity - My wife gave this place 4 stars. She got another chicken dish, see pictures. Maybe not fair for them, but on our previous night, the previous chicken dinner was 5 stars for her. I got the beef stew over gnocchi. Not bad, but even for a light eater, it was NOT enough food for me?!?! Got a glass of Bordeaux which was good, until I noticed the locals got twice as generous of a pour?!? The second time I noticed this while dining out... Happy for them, but to see the inconsistency affects me... Ambiance - Small local business/restaurant. Prime tourist location/area. Plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating. One unisex toilet. Service - Welcoming. Made online reservations, but because we are NOT tech savvy, it booked the wrong time. So since we were in the area, we just walked by and asked them to change the time and had no problems. Price - 49 Euros, $57 USD. Expensive for what we got IMO. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success. read more
We had a nice experience here. We did make a reservation, long line of peeps and some women cut in line demanding to be seated... very odd. So they sat her... it was a busy night, we sat outside. Had a nice bottle of wine. Food was good. read more

Our first night in Nice we stumbled upon this little gem. The service was friendly and prompt. We ordered both duck selections and they were quite delicious. The Créme Brûlée was the best I ever had. Prices are reasonable and location is great. I would recommend La Femme du Boulanger read more

The lamb shanks at this place are really good, especially the sauce which has a plum jam-like flavor and the meat is very delicious. However, the other dish, sheep cheese, has an overpowering taste that may not be suitable for everyone. read more

Great surprise. Everything from drinks to food was perfect. People know from my YouTube videos that French and Italians don't get along and I grade them harsher with that said, this restaurant was great in every aspect. Service, food, drinks, not a single negative thing I can say which is very rare. read more

This warm goat cheese with flower honey crystallized, pears with spices, dry grapes, almonds, walnuts, and fig chutney dish was certified insane. I haven't tasted anything like it and recommend to all. If I could rate the dish alone it would be 5 stars. So why is this review 3 stars you may ask? While the dish was amazing, the service was everything devoid of good. The server and hostess both were super rude, slamming down our dishes/ water when she brought them to the table and maintained an extremely cold demeanor. We were high key scared to ask for more water and the check. Definitely not ideal. read more

Loved all! Finished everything in the plates. The sea bream is very fresh, just be a little careful with the fish bone in it. The crème brûlée is very impressive. read more

Amazing is all I can saw about this food. I'd seen it online but we happened upon it tonight while trying to find dinner. I remembered the name and said to my partner that we should eat here. Not 2 minutes later there was a line of five groups waiting to be seated. Les Poilâne was outstanding. My partner said not to fill up but we are the entire thing! Then came the Lamb shank and the Duck à l'orange. We mmmmmm'd through the meal! The potatoes à gratin were so soft and delicious and the veggies cooked to perfection. The meats, My God! Tiramisu for dessert and it did not disappoint!!! Don't hesitate. Just grab a table and tuck in! read more

Good service and great food! We got the ratatouille which had a unique take on the dish and included seasonal vegetables. We also got the fried goat cheese salad on a toasted bread and it was perfect! read more

We came for the brunch because we had read really good reviews of this restaurant online. The food was nothing short of 5 stars. We were served a 5 course brunch meal that consisted of yogurt with berries, artisan bread with spreads such as jam, butter, and caramel, and then an omelette to top it all off. My only complaint would be the service here. We did not feel as welcomed as we did everywhere else in Nice. They were somewhat standoffish and once they sat us down they did not return to take our order until we flagged them down much later on. In addition we were sat outside originally, and then moved inside for some reason, which was not explained to us. The restaurant itself was beautiful and had such a fun and elegant exterior and interior. I would definitely recommend for the food and I'm sure it was just a busy day for the servers when we went. read more
A gem just off the Promenade. Service with a smile, nice wines by the glass and wonderful French food. The specials are hard to pass on. We had the classic duck a l'orange and sea bream. Everything was delicious. The vegetables cooked perfectly. The dessert list is wonderful too if you have room. Great place for lunch or dinner. read more

Our family of four had a memorable dinner in Nice thanks to the wonderful and friendly staff, great food, and lovely restaurant. Everything about the place was inviting and comforting! The table setting, the cozy lap blankets, warm pumpkin soup offered, even my boys said it was the best kids menu ever! We failed to find it during our first night in Nice but I am grateful to have found it on our second and last night (it was next to a tapas bar). Thank you for our memorable Thanksgiving dinner away from home! This is our family's favorite restaurant in Nice! read more
We loved our brunch here! Great local spot, right in the main part of town, yet off of the main road. They had English menus, and the staff spoke limited English, but we were able to communicate fine. THE SERVICE: Very patient, no rush. We just sat and ended up making friends with another couple seated next to us for almost 3 hours. While that couple was also American, the rest of customers seemed local or at least French. THE WAIT: None at 10am on a rainy Saturday. The outdoor seating was pretty full when we got there, while indoors it was empty. By the time we left around 1pm (the rain had come down much harder), the indoor seating was packed. THE COST: 44,90€ for brunch for two, plus several coffees. Very affordable! THE FOOD: * Cappuccino - 4 stars Lovely, thick froth, served in a small bowl the way it's meant to be drunk! * Omelette - 4.5 stars Nice and fluffy, and love the thin strips of bacon, a little on the soft side but that's exactly how I like my bacon! THE FOLLOWING IS ALL PART OF THE 25€ BRUNCH: * Breads, jams, honey, caramel - 4 stars Pretty good mix of breads, some a little stale, but the homemade jams (strawberry, raspberry, fig, orange, cherry) are fantastic, all have chunks of fruit. * Yogurt, fruit - 4 stars Yogurt was super smooth. Fruits not really fresh or ripe, possibly canned, but worked with the yogurt. Just wish yogurt came in larger container so I could mix in fruit and honey more easily. * Risotto - 2 stars Undercooked, under-flavored, and didn't come out warm. * Smoked salmon - 4.5 stars Very soft and tasty! * Quiche - 3 stars Ok, nothing amazing. * Salad - 3.5 stars Fine, nothing amazing. Greens lacked crisp, dressing a bit bland. * Cheeses, meats - 4.5 stars Simple soft cheeses, great. Salted meats were fantastic. read more

This was one of my favorite restaurant while in Nice. The atmosphere, the service and the food was excellent. I had the salmon, which was very tasty. My husband had the lamb, and he really enjoyed it. We also shared a dessert. Creme brûlée, and it was so good, creamy in the middle and a nice crusty sugary top. The pictures will speak for them selves. read more

Really fantastic atmosphere and super yummy food! All tables are outside, and the hostess/waitress was incredibly helpful making space for us. All the entrees were between €20-€25. I ordered the salmon and my husband ordered the lamb. Creme brûlée for dessert and wine to drink! I was thrilled with this dinner out and grateful we found it! read more

We had an excellent meal and the service was tremendous. We were seated quickly for breakfast, promptly served bread to snack on and provided a menu (the English version because our French omits terrible). The atmosphere was great and we'd absolutely go back! read more
