Great restaurants/bars
Unique dining experience

We had a great
evening out at ‘Karr’ in Rue Alphonse Karr which is
between the apartment and the pedestrian area. The food is
excellent.
If you want a very different and unique dining experience, go to the Brasserie Flo in Rue Sacha Guitry which is just behind the Galeries Lafayette (Ave Jean Medecin). Food is phenomenal and the restaurant is based in an old theatre – the kitchen is actually built on the stage!

Expensive & cheap

A couple more
suggestions for eating out: the restaurant Chanteclor in the
Negresco hotel was expensive but excellent. The hotel is worth a
visit itself with the rather bizarre but beautiful art deco
lobby.
At the other end of the scale, if you want an authentic local experience, you can queue up for a portion of socca (chick pea pancake – local speciality) at the Café Rene in the old town. Very wholesome!

Where to eat

The Quebec
– located on the pedestrian street (Rue de France). Fantastic
prices and good food. Waiters really friendly and appreciate you
trying to order in French.
Ma Nolan’s – Irish bar in the old Nice. Great atmosphere, fantastic English food. English football matches shown. Good bands and free internet access (when working). Like a traditional English/Irish pub. English speaking staff – for when you’re sick of speaking French.
The square around Ma Nolans has loads of other nice restaurants – Spaghetissimo is really, really nice and reasonable. Worth a visit also is the little market selling little gifts and unusual things.

Try Bocaccio's

The best meal we
ate was at Bocaccio in Rue de France. For a nightcap, I recommend
you try the Oasis Hotel, 23 Rue de Gounod – lovely courtyard
to sit under the night sky and enjoy your drink and cigar.

Eat in Monaco

For food, we
definitely recommend a trip up to the Palais in Monaco for an
evening – there are lots of little restaurants with great
food and great views. Good value for money.

Recommended restaurant

Restaurants to
recommend are ‘La Maison Bleue’ on Rue Meyerbeer and
anything in Rue de l’Abbaye in the old Nice. If you are keen
on some travel for food, head to Biot (train stop before
Antibes).

There are of
course plenty of places to eat and drink. We liked ‘La
Havane’ on Rue de France – nice Carribean stuff; and
also Spuntino Divino in the old town on the edge of the market
place (Cours Saleya).

Try the Karr

As for
restaurants we recommend the ‘Karr’ on Rue Alphone Karr
(less than 10mins walk from the apartment) – the food is
great and the staff are very friendly. We also tried the
‘Maison de Marie’ on Rue Massena – it is more
expensive than the ‘Karr’ but is worth it.
Most restaurants provide a set menu option (some times only a lunch time). This is frequently the best way to get value for money and to be sure of fresh ingredients.
