This may be a tourist trap area but make no mistake, this place is excellent. After wandering the streets of Nice for what seemed like an eternity, we luckily stumbled/settled on this place. Obviously, we had no reservations, so no premium/outside seating. All good, since everything else seemed promising.
For starters, we had the fish soup. It was kind of a soup and kind of a bisque and totally delicious. Light and flavorful, it went great with a nice piece of bread.
For the mains, I had the octopus on a bed on potatoes and my wife had the veal cheek. The octopus was perfectly seasoned and the shredded chorizo gave it just a bit of heat. The veal cheek was probably unlike any other veal/beef dish I've ever had. It was glorious.
For dessert, we had a profiterole with chocolate and a creme brûlée. Both of which were a perfect way to end a splendid meal.
The staff was also great. Attentive and not pushy.
So, if you been walking the Promenade de Anglais and you find yourself hungry, head here. You won't be disappointed.
Great food selection. The octopus with chorizo, potato and herbs is a must have. Service was great. Desserts can be improved but great presentation!

If you are strolling around Nice do yourself a favor and stay away from the tourist traps on promenade des Anglais and walk a few blocks inland to this gem of a restaurant!
This was one of my favorite meals while in the south of France. We started our meal with fish soup which tasted like a smooth, silky, buttery bisque, infused with saffron. It was one of the most amazing things I've ever eaten! For my main I had the veal cheeks and they were melt in your mouth good, with the perfect fat to meat ratio. They were served with a side of buttery polenta. Hubby had the octopus with chorizo, which was perfectly cooked and seasoned with Provençal herbs. A friend ordered the sea bass which was not only delicious, but beautifully braided. Dessert was another high point with a profiterole the size of my head and lots of melted chocolate and Grand-Marnier ice cream. Talk about decadent! The vanilla creme brûlée was also huge and the vanilla bean flavor really popped. All this goodness and the prices weren't even exorbitant. Our mustachioed waiter was charming and friendly. This place gets packed so it's wise to make a reservations. We didn't know any better but they still managed to seat us inside. I'm still dreaming about this meal now that I'm back in New York.
Our first meal in Nice was here. We had the ravioli, octopus and cheek dishes. The ravioli was creamy and was luscious. The octopus was accompanied with potatoes and very tasty. The cheek was off the bone tender. The service was extremely friendly and accomodating. Overall, we really enjoyed our lunch.
What an awesome restaurant! Once again, even in the south of France I can count on my trusty yelpers to steer me in the right direction.
This quaint restaurant is a bit off the main promenade road in Nice making it feel a lot less touristy. The waiters were outstanding and we even saw and heard (as he was close to us) the chef explain how he made an awesome dish to an interested couple. The ambiance inside is gorgeous, but we are outside and the restaurant faces a little square were street singers serenade you through your dinner.
For starters we had the French bean salad with prawns, which was awesome. My boyfriend got the sea bass (which came out in a gorgeous braid!) and I had the warm octopus with chorizo. Both were awesome. For dessert we tried the fondant with strawberries, which my BF loved. I was more fond of just the strawberries.
Overall, and awesome experience and a must visit if in Nice.
Our first lunch in Nice started with a bang at this wonderful intimate restaurant about a block away from the sea. Everyone was extremely kind and helped us learn a little French, as they were fluent in English. An Englishman sitting near us on the patio said he eats there all the time. My octopus dish was amazing, as well as the veal cheeks. The octopus almost had the texture of fish, which was delectable. The lemon pavlova was one of the best I have ever tasted.
We happened upon the restaurant on the recommendation of a lovely couple we met at a coffee shop that live in Nice. It was one of the best meals of our entire trip. Everything was amazing and the staff was very pleasant.
This restaurant was recommended by the concierge at our hotel. Lovely patio and interior. The food was quite good and the restaurant is well situated.
If you're in Nice, you must visit Franchin, and you must get the warm Octopus! That's an order!
Short menu - all excellent. Well worth hunting out.
We plan to go back tomorrow night.
