    I am a HUGE fan of mussels. I'm even a bigger fan of all I can eat mussels. Here, you pay one price for the mussels, and you can get whatever flavors you want. They were so extremely delicious too. The place is small and the service may not always be the quickest, but I think it may be a family business. Overall, they did a good job holding it together.

    This was hands down one of my favorite restaurants during my trip in France and it was recommended to us by our Topdeck guide. We were told that seafood was one of the best things to eat during your time in Nice, but we all know seafood can get on the expensive side. This restaurant is located closer to the water but down the big pedestrian street with lots of restaurants with outdoor patio seating. They offer all-you-can-eat Mussels for 15 Euros! I know right!? They had so many different choices in terms of flavors like a blue cheese sauce, garlic and white wine or red wine and scallions. These were just the ones that were ordered at our table. There were plenty more to choose from on the menu. Each order comes with a side of fries and a bucket for you to throw out all the shells. 2 out of 3 of us were able to completely finish the bucket. Just when we thought we couldn't possibly eat any more we ordered a creme brulee just to top it off. It was quite delicious. This is a spot I would definitely come back to. Not only was the food amazing and really great prices, the staff was so nice and super welcoming.

    Come here for the mussels and French fries! They're great. The cheese plate was also amazing, and affordable. Good spot.

    Decent restaurant in the old town. The deal was all you can eat mussels and fries. Pretty simple but tasty and not expensive.

    Fab food and service. We had the jumbo seafood platter..all seafood was cooked to perfection…read more Very fresh seafood. People at table also tried seafood platter for one and the bouillabaisse and raved about them. We also had a selection of desserts, all of which were well presented and delicious.

    This place is just lovely…read more I was walking out from the old part of Nice when I decided to grab a bite at this place. It was small, intimate, and right by the water, overlooking the boats. This place has a great outdoor selection. I was fortunate enough to grab a table outside before the dinner rush. The server was very nice. She recommend the seafood platter because it came with different types of seafood and fishes. The food came out pretty quickly and I was impressed with the selection of seafood on my plate. There were mussels, shrimps, salmon, sardine, and sea bass with assorted grilled vegetables on the bottom. It was fantastic! The fishes were cooked beautifully and the amount was just right. The entire meal was just simple, not over-dressed with some sauce or butter. You'll know immediately if the seafood is good just by eating it plain...grilled with some salt and pepper. This place got it. It was the perfect dinner meal I was looking for. This place is great if you want a view and great seafood in Nice.

    This place was a massive mixed bag and pure chaos…read more Reservations not permitted so it was very luck based waiting game. The person who greeted us was a mix of frantic, slightly rude and meaningfully overwhelmed. We arrived for dinner around 8pm and were told to wait 5-10 minutes for a table inside. 15 minutes later we were told 2 minutes for our table. 35 minutes later we were finally seated. We weren't in a rush, but also were freezing given it was pretty cold outside and there wasn't an indoor waiting area. We also noticed a couple guys walk in and get seated right away, we don't know the scoop, but couldn't help but be a little annoyed given we'd been waiting for 20 minutes at this point and reservations weren't allowed. We got in, it was warm, which was nice. It took us a moment to figure out what we wanted and the service definitely got better once we were seated. Although, unlike other French restaurants we'd visited, you could clearly tell they wanted to get you seated and out quickly. My wife, daughter and I decided to share the soup (which we heard was a must try while in Nice) and a seafood tower de oysters. The good: flavors were good, seafood was fresh. And everything came out quickly. The bad: this might be a me thing, but for €19 euro seafood soup, I'd expect there to be some seafood in there - it was only broth. Maybe that's just how it is, but I was pretty annoyed to get that bowl and not see a lick of protein in there. WTF?! I would absolutely not recommend this dish. We didn't have it anywhere else, so don't know how it's prepared in other locations. The seafood tower was good, but felt fairly stingy for the price. Overall, glad we went, definitely wouldn't go back. Food isn't bad, but it feels very very tourist trappy.

    We went on a rainy day and noticed the servers only sat the French speakers near the window. If you…read moreare a foreigner, you got the inside table. We got a cooked fish dish, which was amazing. However, our seafood platter made us sick. We both felt our stomachs turning around 1 hour after we ate here. I ran to the pharmacy to get meds and felt better after.

    We arrived 30 min early for our 7pm reservation but were seated and enjoyed cocktails while the…read moregrill and coals were getting to temp. Grilling begins at 7, not before. 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.

    3.5 Stars rounded up…read more Quality/Quantity - Craved a steak today and found this place on Google. So happy that prime rib was on the menu, but when I ordered it, it came more of a rib eye which is typically my favorite. But I got teased with the "prime rib." Generous portions; see pictures. Cooked to order, but it was not cooked medium rare IMO. After a few rare bites, I asked for the chef to throw it back on the grill. It was still too rare when it came back, but by then, I was just too hungry. Lastly and most importantly, it was tough, like how can a rare steak be tough?!? I had the hardest time cutting it even with a steak knife. The rice with teriyaki sauce was good. I might try this at home next time. The veggies were okay. My wife got a chicken plate - Again, generous portions and cooked to perfection. Tender and juicy. My wife enjoyed her salad (very bitter) and veggies. She gave her meal 5 stars. Oh, and my wife had so many leftovers she will not need lunch tomorrow. Ambiance - Got a great table next to the chef. Then the heat from the oven was too much for my wife. I guess they noticed it and moved us a few tables back. Thank you. Service - Not sure if we got here too early (7pm), but our waitress was late coming to work. It took forever for the waitress to take our order. But she did come back several times to check on us. I had to ask for extra water, etc. Price - 54 Euros, $63US; reasonably priced for a steak house. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.
