But the attention to detail when it comes to a customer is non existent. I ordered a half bottle of wine. The waiter poured me a glass then decided to move the menu blackboard to another location on the table. In the process he knocked over my glass of wine, half of it spilling on my lap. No apology. He grabbed some paper towels and cleaned up the spilt wine from the table and wall. He never offered to replace the glass of wine which equaled about a third of the bottle. My wife asked him for some soda water to try and limit the damage to my pants. He brought a bottle of sparkling water. All of this took place under the watchful eye of the owner. Not once did she approach the table. Here's the best part. At the end of the meal we realized they charged me for the sparkling water. I should have complained but I sat quietly, determined to never return again. There are a lot of bistros in Nice with better food and better customer service. I shall seek them out in the future.

We got rude servis=ce , no menu of=r offer od=f a drink , just a point to the blackboard menu and "any questions". I could forgive all of this if the food was amassing .... Its not. Good but not outstanding and the steak was terrible. Guys lives to short to waste a whole night being treated like a second d class citizen because your not a regular. So many other options in the areas just go somewhere friendly and get a nice table , a welcome and enjoy.the old town. leave this rude little restaurant to themselves.

Just 3-4 simple ingredients but full of flavour and very complex. We took testing menu and from starter to the dessert we were amaze by light squid, dory fish with cabbage, amazing duck with carrot and ginger and peach mousse with ice cream. Well done!

Unfortunately, that wasn’t going to work for my 11 year old. The waitress then proceeded to wish us luck because “French people don’t have a lot of celiacs.”

The service was great and they were competent in their “sans gluten” knowledge. As always, I’m writing this review the day after eating and no contamination noted. There IS gluten in the restaurant but kept it away from me. As someone who is sensitive to CC, I would recommend this place.
