"Outdoor Dining Area" Restaurants in France
With its lavish decor and opulent arrangements, Jan Hendrik van der Westhuizen's gourmet restaurant is one of the most original places in the city. The very personal menu is inspired by South African cuisine, plus an extra cheese room - spectacular!
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!
Worth a visit: A detour to the legendary Grand-Hôtel du Cap Ferrat, located at the tip of an exclusive peninsula. Surrounded by Aleppo pines, you can enjoy Yoric Tièche's highly elegant Provençal-Mediterranean cuisine and award-winning wines.
A sanctuary for the Burgundian 'Climats' wines, Kevin Julien pulls out all the stops with food pairing around Chambertin and Montrachet. The "Vinostronomique" restaurant offers 800 labels and seasonal highlights (asparagus with sauce gribiche).
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.
Italian-French bistro to gourmet cuisine, which can be enjoyed in summer on the very popular, elegant and charming terrace in the company of Nice's haute volee. Frog legs, bone marrow, truffle pasta and lobster go well with - what else? - Champagne.
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.
For self-proclaimed hedonist Allan Lalevée, it's the element of surprise that counts. The tasting menu of the informal gourmet restaurant changes every 15 days - the dishes prepared from ultra-fresh produce remain a secret until the very end.
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.
Bistronomy at its best, which impresses with a warm atmosphere, a good pinch of nonchalance and unaffected feel-good dishes made from the freshest ingredients, such as crab cakes with sea urchin remoulade or gnocchi with Parmesan foam and black garlic.
