"Sunday Opening" Restaurants in Nizza
Samuel Victori's menus are a delightful treat: playful, original, but also pure, with many finely knitted arcs of tension, the dishes are full of flavour, memorable and delicious, plus a sensational wine list and charming service. Favourite!
No longer an insider tip among natural wine fans. Wine enthusiast Sébastien Perinetti and chef Elmahdi Mobarik have created a very authentic Eldorado here, where you can enjoy the best food, and even better, drink by the glass. .
A certain ageing potential new star in the firmament that is already shining very brightly. The power duo Florencia Montes and Lorenzo Ragni, both previously at Mirazur, have quickly established themselves with their cuisine, which is characterised by razor-sharp purism and powerful sophistication.
In one of the most beautiful restaurants in Nice, you can enjoy the delicately composed creations of chef Damien Andrews: lacquered sea bream, octopus carpaccio, prawn ravioli with hazelnut espuma. The terrace and veranda are a dream.
A fancy place for advanced diners, but the food - fantastic lobster linguine, perfectly prepared sole, first-class vitello tonnato - is really good, with prices as salty as the Parmesan. But the desserts are pimped with gold.
Luxurious design, restaurant and bar concept on the sixth floor of the iconic Anantara Plaza hotel. With deluxe sushi, wagyu picanha and truffled lobster salad, you can enjoy the breathtaking sea view with a freshly mixed cocktail in your hand.
For more than thirty years, this institution has been cooking authentic, fresh and proud regional cuisine: panisses, pissaladière, veal tartare, octopus stuffed with chard. Cordial owners, good hospitality, warm atmosphere.
Perhaps the most romantic restaurant in Nice with an unobstructed view of magical sunsets at an iconic location in the city. Floating above the sea, you can enjoy summery Mediterranean gourmet cuisine made from fresh, seasonal market produce.
Babel Babel is many things: a bar with good drinks and a small, fine natural wine list, an uncomplicated trendy restaurant, a great sundowner spot, a pleasant place with a promenade pole position ... or simply a relaxed place with good beats and a casual atmosphere.
The rooftop of the AC Hotel Nice is the perfect place to unwind among the plants and sea views, be it with cocktails and bar snacks by the lagoon coloured pool or with stuffed zucchini flowers and salmon steak with salicorn in the sophisticated open-air restaurant.
Country house style meets shabby chic in this charming restaurant near the Cours Saleya, which also has a small street terrace in summer. Head chef Aurélien Martin loves contrasts and serves flavours from all over the world in a blind tasting menu.
Maritime feel-good cuisine made from the best products at an upscale level. The focus is on local fish, crustaceans and seafood, prepared creatively but not overcooked: Linguine with lobster, sea bream royale with orange rouille.
With its premium location on the Promenade des Anglais, Le Méridien, including the Peska bar and roof terrace restaurant, is one of the hotspots of the Côte d'Azur. The hotel cuisine tastes fantastic: sea bream ceviche with citrus fruits, swordfish with panisse.
An institution for which locals and tourists alike queue up in summer. In addition to large platters of fresh oysters, prawns and the like, you can also feast on lobster, langoustines and sea urchins on the terrace under the arcades, depending on the season.
In a prime location in the old town, 37-year-old Pierre Altobelli continues his grandmother's work to great acclaim. The menu changes daily, and there are almost always barbajuans, linguine au pistou and fresh anchovies. Despite the simple preparation, the prices are upmarket.
A somewhat soberly designed roof terrace restaurant in the otherwise splendid Hôtel Aston La Scala. It's still worth a visit, especially on summer days. Then the atmosphere is vibrant and you have an almost kitschy view of the city.
A small urban oasis on the colourful roof terrace of the Hôtel Mercure. Far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and yet right in the middle of it all, you can practise cultivated laissez-faire with cocktails and snacks. In the evening, the direct view of Notre Dame is truly magical.
