I looked at the outdoor seating area and saw folks enjoying their food...saw the sign for couscous and though that this may be the thing to lift the mood. I was so right!! My family has never had authentic couscous and I hadn't had it since a visit to Morocco...we had such an excellent experience with the meat, the veggie soup and the fresh couscous. The eating experience not only put the day on the map but gave us a wonderful story and experience to share. To note, we had a baby with us and the staff was very accommodating and friendly. They offered bread, a booster seat, and smiles. If we were to find ourselves in Nice again, we would definitely return for more amazing food!

We enjoyed the brick with goat cheese, the lamb shank tagine with prunes, crème brûlée with orange blossom flower, and mint tea. Excellent overall, with a final bill of €35 for two. Overall, 4 stars well deserved.
