Saison is a new restaurant in Nice that is the creation of Michelin starred chef Keisuke Matsushima. Matsushima has a renowned gourmet restaurant on Rue de France in Nice that serves Mediterranean food with an Asian twist. Saison is his way of introducing the Nicois to Japanese food. Fantastic service in stylish minimal Japanese setting and fantastic food. Expect to find sushi, sashimi and wonderful noodle dishes of the like you'd find only in Japan. A cheaper more accessible route to an incredibly talented chef.

One of the more high end beach clubs with a relaxed but fine dining experience in the restaurant, private beach boxes, lounge area and swimming pool. In existence since the 1920's and services a selection of 5 star hotels in Nice.

Highly recommended French restaurant decorated in the style of the interior of a French Galleon, good value lunches and excellent views.

Fantastic restaurant spread over some old steps in the depths of Vieux Nice. Traditional menu with a few variations however the quality is just superb.

Restaurant Gesu is one of the most popular restaurants in Nice. The food is above average, typical pizzas and pastas but the price is below average. It means getting a table can be hard and watch out for pricey desserts but persevere and you'll have a good and cheap meal, a perfect combination.

Planet Sushi is the latest Sushi restaurant to open in Nice. Sushi is widely available in Nice but it has never been a particularly popular food choice until now. Planet Sushi have hit the nail on the head with a funky modern sushi bar, young staff, cool vibe and great food. Part of a larger chain with branches in Paris, Ibiza and Miami it has a perfect mix of traditional favourites and some new food combinations. It is popular and busy which is always a good sign in a fish restaurant. Nice has discovered sushi for the first time and we like it. Take out also available and great lunchtime snack boxes for a super cool beach picnic. Internet ordering is an option too and delivery during the off season. Don't expect home delivery during August.
