    We wanted to escape the menus at all the touristy restaurants in Nice, and so we were delighted when we stumbled across this hidden gem of a venue; it's located just a few steps off the main street. The atmosphere is jumpin', and the service is incredibly attentive. Just how attentive is the service? So attentive that you'll sometimes see the chef taking orders so that customers don't need to wait too long :-) Over and above the wonderful atmosphere and the excellent service, the food they serve here is truly exceptional. We ordered the avocado hummus beef with sesame, as well as the dorada with rice and aubergine. Both dishes were not only delicious, but they were so beautifully plated it was almost a shame to eat them :-) For dessert we had Chantilly cream with little honeycombs and a drizzle of caramel; it was simply Devine! All the prices were incredible reasonable, and the carafe of house Bordeaux we shared was wonderful. About the only downside of this place is the fact that their quality is apparently very well known in the area, so it's highly advisable to make reservations!

    Great meal in France!…read more 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.

    Quality/Quantity - My wife gave this place 4 stars. She got…read moreanother 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.
