We asked for the dessert menu, but they told us that they needed to turn over the table within 10 minutes so we could not have dessert and had to get the check. I have never had an experience like this before in ANY country. Clearly they are a tourist trap and they just want to turn over tables. If you would like a real French experience, stay far away. We live in Nice and I've never had service like this. I would like to give this restaurant, the worst review of my life.

Le Crocodile marked my inaugural meal in France, and what an introduction it was! The pizza and…read morerisotto were nothing short of fantastic. The restaurant faces the beach so you get really nice views and if you went for sunset I could see it being even better. While the service leaned towards a leisurely pace - a characteristic of the France - the flavors of the dishes did partially compensate for any wait.

I have traveled all over France. From Perpignan to Calais, from Brittany to Cote d' Azur and many…read moreplaces in between. I have never, EVER, in all of my time in France had worse frites than I had at Le Cocodile. France is known for great food and frites are always a part of that. The frites at Le Cocodile were worse than cheap fries made in the US. They were so bad that they could not make up for the decent service or the middling other items we had.

Okay, okay, Le Safari, we went here three (3) times in 10 days in Nice - was it that good or were…read morewe that lazy?? A little bit of both. First of all, they're super convenient, open crazy hours by Socialist standards and they are centrally located (by Saleya open-walkway) and close to everything with indoor and outdoor seating. Excellent and attentive service as well. So why four (4) stars and not five (5)??, welllll, the first time we ordered calamari - we got a really small basket (please see my pic). During the second visit, we ordered calamari again and got a gigantic serving (please see my pic), it was at this point when we realized that we got ripped off the first time!! But it's all good, we enjoyed all of our food and the different types of pizza. Remember, Nice was once upon a time, called Nizzi. Until Italy gave Nice France, without a single gun shot or canon ball. I say Italy got ripped off like I got ripped off with the first calamari portion. :) I say all that to say - there are many Italians here in Nice and they know how to make Italian food and Neapolitan style pizza. FYI, looking forward to my trip to Italy next year. Thank you, Lord!! We look forward to coming back here again and ordering their pizzas and calamari.

So so good famous chicken and the soup. Price was fair. The escargot looked good too.read more

3.5 stars rounded up…read more Quality/Quantity - This came up on my Google feed with so many good reviews and it was very near our hotel. Got here early, and got a seat with no reservations. It got busy quickly with a waiting list. Prefix dinners - I got the famous chicken and my wife got the fish. It came with a generous appetizer, see pictures. My wife also got the chocolate mousse dessert. Overall the food was okay. My wife's entree was probably the better of the two. Ambiance - Small local restaurant. Tables squeezed next to each other with very little space in between. One unisex restroom. I did not use it, as our hotel was very close. I washed my hands at the hotel before coming here. Service - Okay, not good or bad. Price - 56 Euros, $65 US; expensive for what we got. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

What a fantastic meal! Their menu is written on a chalkboard and while it is not a large menu, everything we had was delicious.

Big fan of Bistrot d'Antoine and was glad we got to try it on our trip! This is a really popular…read morerestaurant and it was fully booked for lunch and dinner while we were there. It seems like they only take bookings via phone so you can ask your hotel to help! Anyway, we swung by for lunch and they told us they were fully booked. We asked if we could sit outdoors (it was set up but it had rained in the morning) and they said sure! Food wise, we shared an app, 2 mains and a dessert. The appetizers was Courgette flowers (Zucchini Blossoms) with ricotta cheese inside; there was this acidic mouse in the middle - a very refreshing and delightful dish! I don't see courgette much in the US so I'm glad I tried it. For the mains, we had the local trout and the braised pork cheeks with polenta. The trout was fresh, and paired nicely with a variety of different veggies. The stew was very warm and hearty and also not too salty. For dessert, we tried the tiramisu which was tasty but nothing to write home about. The waitress that served us was very friendly as well! Overall, a fantastic experience. Highly recommend trying it on your trip to Nice :)

Fairly tender served over creamy mashed potatoes. The sauce was sweet and not my go to for entrees, but it was a fruit sweet and toned down with herbs. Extensive wine list. I had the luburon which was fine for a table wine. My neighbors shared their bottle of 2017 gamay and I would order it instead. Bread and olives were nice starters. I liked how they cured it. Not overpowering brine with herbs. This is in the higher price range of the area, but the setting and staff is more polished. My adjacent dining patrons had the prix fixe menu. They did not love their entrees but had no complaints ( a fish and pork option). Oddly the establishment had only one bathroom.

Tip: The cuisine here is Corsican, and everything we tried on their menu looked wonderful and tasted even better than it looked :-) The atmosphere is bright and cherry; the service is exceptional, and the food just may Rock your World! After a leisurely and totally satisifying dinner, we paid the check and went back to our hotel.  The prices turned out to be very reasonable given the quality of the food and the service - I'm going to make a point of coming back the next time I'm in Nice.
