A
La Petite Maison
Nice’s hottest table draws celebs and politicians for its happening scene and elegantly executed Niçois specialities. We love the drama of the noisy, high-ceilinged room, aglow with flickering candlelight, and the contemporary spins of local classics, but waiters putter (unless you’re famous), portions run small and tables are packed together. Still, it’s tops for a splashy night out. Reservations essential.

La Merenda
Closed at weekends, with no phone number or credit card machine, La Merenda is one of a kind. This tiny restaurant serves some of the most unusual fare in town: stockfish (dried cod soaked in running water for a few days and then simmered with onions, tomatoes, garlic, olives and potatoes) is the house speciality, as is tripe. La Merenda also serves Bellet wines, a rare local vintage.

La Table Alziari
Run by the grandson of the famous Alziari olive oil family, this citrus-coloured restaurant off the busy rue Pairolière is not here to brag about anything. The day’s menu is chalked on a blackboard, with local specialities such as morue à la niçoise (cod served with potatoes, olives and a tomato sauce) or grilled goat’s cheese washed down with regional wines.

Le Safari
The only restaurant on touristy Cours Saleya that merits your attention, Le Safari serves Niçois specialities – daube de boeuf (beef stew), petite friture (fried small fish) and petits farcis – on a bustling heated terrace and a more romantic (smoke-free) wood-beamed dining room lined with jars of olives.
