The large staff worked in harmony in presenting our food. We decided to order entrées rather than the tasting menu but will come back for the tasting menu. We had the Seabass and the pigeon. We also shared the zucchini flowers. The chef supplied us with many complimentary appetizers and desserts. We had the strawberries in two ways for dessert and I have to say that all the food was unbelievable. This is an expensive restaurant but worth it.

Tout le reste était excellent et fort bien pensé.

Service and food correct but not fantastic. I tasted only plates of pasta served in big pans. I was not dazzled by the flavours, it remains basic. Possibility also to come to have a drink. Happy hour in the week except Saturday and Sunday (sic) with prices divided by two, Coke at 2EUR instead of 4 for example. We appreciate the late service till two o'clock in the morning which was the main reason of my two comings (it was the only restaurant which could again accept us in the late hours). Yes for the happy hour but the damage that this one is not made the weekend also. No for the restaurant because the quality remains too average.

I found this restaurant while on the train en route to Nice from Avignon. After spending a rainy…read moreday in Provence and missing out on the quintessential provençal foods, I was dreaming of light and fresh dishes. Despite the good reviews on Google and Yelp, I was nervous to go, thinking about the tourist traps in Nice and the few bad reviews. Well, I'm here to say, this place was amazing. It was just what I wanted. Although I made reservations, it was not busy so I simply sat down. Ordered the Nicoise ravioli and cod with mussels and aioli. My husband loved the ravioli and my dish, man was I pleased. The mussels were literally some of the best above ever had. They were small and sweet and certainly not frozen. Ate aioli was also so delicious and my meal overall was so satisfying and delicious. One of the best I've had in my few short days in France. I also feel its important to mention the waiter, who was so calm and kind. I can't recommend this place

There appeared to be some outdoor seating as well in the street too. The server also seems to cook there, as he had an adorable little chefs hat. He was also helpful in explaining the different items on the menu too. I had the set menu, of which there are choices within three categories. For starter I had a seafood soup, which seemed to be from a stew of all sorts, principally mussel, but a little bit intense for my taste. The entrée was a nice little lasagna with a Nicois flavoured twist. The ice cream here can be chosen from several different flavours, it's not the best, but alright for what it is. Overall I'd recommend this place if you're feeling a bit indecisive about what to have like I was. J'ai trouvé ce restaurant en passent le long de la rue Pairoliere de la vielle ville. C'est un endroit petit, avec des décorations Niçois à l'intérieur. Il semble des tables dehors dans la rue aussi. Le serveur a porté une toque adorable, il était très utile pour expliquer le menu. Moi j'ai pris le menu fixe, avec des choix dans les trois catégories. Pour l'entrée j'ai eu la soupe, qui semblait un peu intensif pour moi. Le plat principal était une lasagna avec une saveur Niçois. La glace peut choisir parmi plusieurs saveurs différents, ce n'est pas mémorable, mais c'est définitivement une glace. Je le recommande si vous êtes un peu indécis pour le déjeuner comme moi.

The staff was off... very very off .. I have received better service at the overly touristy places ... we ordered a bottle of champagne to start with , the first glass was poured and the bottle was taken away .. once we finished the glass , we were sitting with EMPTY glasses for at least 15 -20 min! Having the bottle next to us , we would pour the champagne ourselves, however the bottle was nowhere to be found. So was the staff .. Restaurant at this point was empty , there was one more couple on the balcony. It seemed as we had 3-4 people serving our table but none had the clue what the other did. Had to ask for our bottle and the server had no idea we even ordered one and went searching for it. This experience repeated ... so strange. Ask me which dish was memorable - I could not tell you.. looking back at the photos - everything was fine , but not great and not worth the price we paid at the end , and definitely not worth all the praises. The view is nice, of course , but the place next to it seemed more fun with the same view really. Disappointed!

While in Nice for work, some colleagues of mine and I were able to secure a last-minute reservation with gorgeous views overlooking the water. We each chose the coursed meal for 88euro that didn't disappoint! Each dish was carefully presented in a masterfully creative way that almost made me feel guilty for 'destroying' it. But, I'm glad I did! The starter was Pressé of foie gras scented with fig, beetroot millefeuille and port & fig coulis, with pickles. The main was the fresh catch of the day with zucchini and crusty flower, caramelized onion and ginger. The dessert was Lemon and red berries - Grenache scented with lime, red berries clafoutis, bergamote orange sorbet, crumble and fresh fruit Each dish was delightful and delicious to the palette, stand alone or when paired with wine. I highly recommend La Réserve if I'm Nice, France. You won't be disappointed!

But…read morewhen you are given a heads up about a restaurant from a reliable local, then it would be foolish to not heed the advice. For us, a visit to L'Atelier was that advice and we are glad that we went. Things didn't start off well, but they couldn't have needed better. It was a wet, nasty day. And by the time we made it to the restaurant, it was that odd time of day where they are closing their lunch service and will not be open until dinner service. But the awesome staff told us that they can still make us some Socca. I had the socca with cheese and my wife had the socca with foie gras. They were both absolutely amazing. Perfectly cooked and perfectly seasoned. All the ingredients just came together well. It was also a surprisingly large portion. What I thought was going to be a snack turned out to be a meal. And with a great coffee at the end our meal was complete. It's not too often that one can visit a Michelle star rated restaurant and have a meal for under 20 euro per person. But that's exactly what we did here. One day, I'd love to come back and try everything else on the menu. I have no doubt it's just as good.

This was by far one of my favorite places to dine in Nice! We came here when we were visiting Nice…read morein May and the weather was pleasant enough to sit and eat our meal outside. As a lot of restaurants in France, L'atelier has its menu written on a blackboard with chalk. This is one of the things I love about dining in France (at least at the good spots) is that they really aim to serve food that is in season and the menu changes constantly to accommodate for the various seasonal produce / meat / fish. The specialty of this place is socca (this is a Nicoise specialty which is basically a chickpea flour crepe). I am vegan and gluten free so I was really delighted that they could accommodate for my dietary restrictions. This place takes the simple socca - which is traditionally served with salt and pepper and elevates it to another level by making individual soccas in their cast iron pots and then topping it with various delicacies - as I recall you could get anything from foie gras to Thai beef to grilled vegetables as a topping on your socca. One of the things that I really liked about this place was the service. Not only was it good but the waiter was so charming (a delight to find anywhere but especially in France). Not to get on a soapbox, but one of biggest pet peeves when visiting a restaurant is lack of good service. It can be the best restaurant in the world with the most amazing food but the meal is imperfect unless accompanied with great service. But this place has the most spectacular service, our waiter was charming and more than willing to help us out since the menu was written in French (and my French is rustic at its best)! Me and my boyfriend both decided to order socca - I ordered mine topped with various seasonal roasted vegetables while my boyfriend ordered his with Thai beef (which the server recommended). I wasn't in the mood to drink but my boyfriend ordered a glass of red with the recommendation of our server. Both of us really enjoyed our meal! It was flavorful, seasoned perfectly and very well balanced. My boyfriend also thought that this wine paired really well with the Thai beef. I was quite full after the meal but we looked around and the desserts looked so delicious that my boyfriend couldn't resist and ordered the deconstructed Ferrero Rocher (suggested by our server once again!). The dish was so beautiful to look that - its served in a glass jar and has mousse at the bottom and layered with chocolate and crunchy nuts and had several cookies and chocolate added from top. Its much easier to explain via the picture (which I have added). Overall, our experience here was great and I would highly recommend trying out this place if you find yourselves in Nice!
