This was our favorite meal of our trip to Nice!…read more Warning: Reservations are hard to come by we dropped by and only reservations available were for 9pm two nights later. We took it. The place is super relaxed. 5 maybe 6 tables which made the difficulty of reservations more understandable. Prix fix menu - 4 appetizers to choose from, 4 entrees and 4 desserts. We were there with somewhat of a limited diet, but the options were awesome. We got a cauliflower appetizer and an artichoke one. Both were excellent. We all had the cod for dinner also delicious - served in a bath of traditional fish soup and with potatoes. The dessert was also excellent - we got the goat cheese in olive oil and garlic, the cream cheese with blueberry compote, lemon cheesecake and cinnamon "tiramisu". Every bite was full of flavor and such cool takes on the food. Now the intangibles - we arrived for our 9pm reservation, restaurant closes at 9:30 and we probably didn't walk out until 11:15 and there was still another table of 8 people dining. The host/waiter, Sebastian, was awesome. So friendly and we at no point felt rushed. In fact the opposite. When our daughter was slow in finishing her meal he joked with her instead of hurrying us along. Once we finished our main dish, he casually brought us our dessert and because we didn't order his favorite (we didn't know) he brought us out an extra to enjoy. We felt a little bad so somewhat accelerated the dessert phase so we could square up and leave. Instead he was unhurried, he casually cleared our table and chatted with us for a bit. It took us another 15 minutes before we finally said could we get the bill. He brought it to us another 5-7 minutes later. We had a great experience and one of our best meals in France, if not the best.

Overall, I'd say the food is a 3.5/5 but the value is 5/5. I'd recommended Chez Palmyre if you want a real Nice experience, especially on a budget. Be sure to make a reservation well in advance.

We ordered a double round of snails, plus shrimp crudo, steak tartare, and octopus to share. Everything was fresh, light, and had unique flavor combos. I also got an espresso martini for my fix, but honestly, I wouldn't recommend it. It wasn't great and came with a straw (lol)?!? Now, here's where it got wild. The staff, 4 of them, were literally screaming and fighting with each other in the middle of service with hands raised, ready to throw down. I've never seen anything like it in a restaurant, and it turned what could have been a nice meal into something that felt trashy. Our grumpy waiter was one of the people involved, which just made it worse. Food-wise, this place is a 5. But with the staff's behavior, I'm being generous giving it a 3. Honestly, I wouldn't go back because of that.

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.

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.

We had a reservation for this restaurant on our very first night in Nice and it was extremely…read moredisappointing. First, let me just say that the food was quite good - that was not the issue. The service, on the other hand, was deplorable. Our server made it very clear early on that although he spoke perfect English, he did not care for Americans. So, he went out of his way to give us the bare minimum of service. He did not clear any empty cans or glasses from our table over the entire two hours we were there, he did not attempt to be friendly, he did not check to see if we needed anything. He served me a room temperature bottle of beer, and when I mentioned it to another person they brought me an ice cold bottle...so it's not that they weren't available. We also arrived when the restaurant was essentially empty, and they went out of their way to seat us at the worst table available (sloped down the street so the table was tilted). Meanwhile, our same server was downright jovial with anyone that was fluent in French. Mercifully, we have had a much better experience at every single other place we have visited in our week here in Nice. La Ptite Cocotte seems to be the exception rather than the rule. That being said, we can absolutely NOT recommend this restaurant if you want to be treated like a guest rather than simply tolerated.

That was my takeaway after eating the most delicious pizza I've ever had in my life at Pizza Pinnochio. Tucked away in an ally in Sanremo, this place is serving up some pizza that can only make you shake your head is disbelief. It's a small mom and pop type of place and they are as a friendly as they come. Even though they didn't speak a lick of English and we didn't speak a lick of Italian, the waitress guided us as best she could through the menu and I ordered a two personal pizzas: one with peppers and one with prosciutto. The pizzas were prepared from start to finish in less than 10 minutes and were very thin crust. The cheese was bubbling and the taste was unreal. It's was the most delicious piece of pizza id ever had. Not to sound cliche, but it was literally melting in my mouth. I enjoyed it so much so that i ordered another pie. If you ever find yourself in Sanremo, this is a hands down must visit restaurant. I promise this will be the best pizza you've ever tasted in your life... Well at least if you're from the US.

We were not disappointed; the pizza was indeed amazing. I ordered the artichoke and grana pizza and was blown away. The wife had the Diavolo and enjoyed it immensely as well. The crust was thin, perfectly cooked, and delicious, with that smoky flavor you only get from a wood-fired oven. The surroundings were standard neighborhood eatery: low-brow and relaxed. No danger of a Michelin star appearing anytime soon. The waitress was quite friendly and the staff seemed capable of conversing in several languages (I heard pretty good English, German, French, and of course, Italian). As a bonus, the restroom, though basic, was clean, fully functional, and well stocked with soap and paper towels. Having eaten in many similar Italian eateries, this was quite a rarity. Check your bill carefully. Whether by accident or design, they charged me for an extra drink that we hadn't ordered. No biggie, but the only blemish on an otherwise pleasant and tasty evening.
