Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Alpes-Maritimes

16/05/2026: A very good little restaurant in Menton with a very affordable menu for all budgets.

08/05/2026: Avoid this restaurant. We were lured in with a €20 set menu (main course + dessert): sea bream for me and sea bass for my wife, fresh fish according to the waiter. Both were decent, but the vegetable side dishes were very sparse. Dessert was a small, mass-produced lemon tart. The bill was a bit steep because of our aperitif: a basic €10 cocktail of limoncello and prosecco. We also asked for a carafe of water, which was never served and we're still waiting. The bread was poor quality. The few other customers there—a couple with us—should have raised our suspicions, especially since they were seated in a pleasant area. We left very disappointed.

25/11/2025: We went to celebrate beaujolais noveau and it was perfect ! Marie and her family are so warm and friendly, and her wine knowledge is magnificent! The food was delicious ❤️

04/11/2025: Well, the reviews weren't wrong...

19/05/2026: Avoid at all costs! Not customer-oriented. They're just trying to rip off tourists for a 0.50 euro mistake by the bartender who came to collect my money.

16/05/2026: Very pleasant. The food was very good, the servers were friendly and professional, and there's a beautiful view of the Nice theater. The service is quick and less expensive than other places on the same street. I don't understand the bad reviews. I recommend it!

24/02/2026: I never leave reviews, but this time I think it's important to say that this restaurant is family-run, excellent, and the portions are huge. We also don't understand the negative reviews. It's a really great place.

10/01/2026: The pizzas were delicious! We ordered them by phone and they were ready as soon as we arrived. The price was reasonable for pizzas, the vegetarian one was generously topped with grilled vegetables, and the crust was perfect. I highly recommend this place!

16/02/2026: Absolutely fantastic! Beautiful pizzas! Delicious desserts! Breathtaking view of the valley.

27/02/2026: Very good crêperie! There's a bit of a wait when the restaurant is full, but it's worth it.

18/05/2026: Poor customer service; the customer is not valued. Warning: the order does not always match what you ordered.

07/05/2026: The food was amazing! We received such a warm welcome! The food was excellent! We were very well received!

30/04/2026: Nice selection of different cafes. Good cappuccino.

26/04/2026: Unfriendly service that made me not want to stay: breakfast packages with no flexibility because I don't drink coffee, the unpleasant waiter simply made it clear that if it didn't suit me, it wasn't his problem.

16/05/2026: Very disappointed by this restaurant. The €19 salads are really not worth the price. The Niçoise salad consisted of an enormous amount of lettuce, some of which was damaged or even rotten. It also contained flowering herbs (see last photo). The peppers and red onions were very roughly chopped, and some pieces were black. I also wonder what celery was doing in a Niçoise salad… As for the garnish: only one small egg and a tiny tomato… very meager for the price. And ONE radish. A third of the salad was inedible (see second photo). The Caesar salad was also disappointing: no tomato, small portion, and sparsely filled. The same goes for the salad. The only positive point was the service, which was quick. But unfortunately, this doesn't make up for the poor quality of the food. €56 for a salad each with two glasses of Côtes de Provence wine served at the bar—is that really the wine? €8 each

11/05/2026: Food was ok... Hamburger patty burnt, half of the mussels were empty and so on. But... WE HAD TO PAY €8 FOR WATER!? THEY DIDNT EVEN TELL US THE PRICE😡🤬 If I weren't on a good mood I would sue, but this still DEFINITELY ruined my night. Staff were also rude, they acted like charging €8 for water was normal and our fault. NEVER GO HERE🤬

17/05/2026: Very happy chap running this little cafe. The Buffalo salad was huge and lovely. The Galettes were delicious and cheesey. All in a quaint square. Shame about the low scores. Will be back.

16/05/2026: We ate there. It was very good. The meat was cooked perfectly, just the way I like it. A table for two. With a touch of humor, there's a sign saying he wants to retire and that waiters are scarce, which is why he's alone. However, the service was very quick. We were treated to a short guitar and harmonica concert. A very pleasant and convivial experience. I recommend the rump steak.

31/07/2025: To vomit, never seen before, a deplorable welcome and disgusting cuisine. I confirm the unbearable smell coming from the kitchens, probably. Run away quickly, it's the first and last time. Never seen before.

15/05/2026: The welcome was lovely, everything started so well. The order was taken, and the glass of white wine was awful for €3 or €5. You can find good bottles of sweet or semi-dry wine elsewhere. Then came the first misstep: the waiter didn't ask how I wanted my steak cooked for a simple burger, and when I asked if it was possible to change the sauce, he told me I'd have to figure out how to add it myself… The burger arrived, the steak barely cooked, still pink. Very disappointed. The waitress took my plate back, and I had to wait 10 or 15 minutes for it to be cooked again, which was awful… My friend's mussels were good, served on a simple plate and not in a pot. I'd never seen that before, but there's a first time for everything, lol. There were about ten of them, practically fighting over each other, with three or four closed for €20. It's a bit shameful to serve that by the sea. The service itself was good, with a young, tattooed woman who was professional, dynamic, and smiling—excellent—and a rather older man who was also excellent. Unfortunately, the manager was completely clueless, just talking nonsense and making a series of... Going back and forth with nothing in hand, giving orders, yelling at a young waiter in front of the customers, letting the young waitress juggle heavy trays, the manager even taking quick phone calls—in short, someone who is completely unprofessional and doesn't know how to manage a team. Unfortunately, don't waste your time and money in this phony restaurant. For some, it's a daily grind, but for the cook, it's a daily grind. K.O., give up your spot, it's better, funny…

13/05/2026: Please run away! Don't waste your money on food straight from the supermarket. First, they offer a dessert with the children's menu, which we order right away, and when it comes to dessert, there's no dessert left. Okay, fine, we understand, we're not going to quibble, but in the end, no goodwill gesture, no discount. Then, all the dishes arrived COLD. When you order fries in a restaurant and they arrive cold, that tells you something's up. They arrived cold and hard. Were they cooked and recooked? No one will ever know. In one of our so-called homemade mashed potatoes, we found a hair. In our sautéed mushrooms, we found a stone. And with all that, not a discount, not a gesture of goodwill. The fritto misto was inedible, the mixed seafood grill smelled like spoiled fish (stagnant seawater, yuck!). We've eaten at this restaurant several times and never had a problem. But since the management changed, it's disgusting. It's May 13, 2026, for goodness sake, go eat somewhere else, especially considering the prices.

10/06/2026: Very good, without hesitation we will come back

06/06/2026: Very bad attitude from the staff....

25/04/2026: We stayed at the Hotel La Victoire, located on Place du Grand Jardin, right at the entrance to Vence's historic center. It's a small, two-star hotel. It doesn't have private parking, but we were able to use the public underground parking garage opposite the entrance, which made arrival much easier. Inside, the layout is simple. We stayed in a double room. The room was clean, with a wardrobe and a handy storage shelf. The room was equipped with air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and a functional bathroom. However, the shower could use some improvement: the curtain, although visibly cleaned, could do with being replaced. There's a small elevator for luggage. The soundproofing is effective: although the hotel directly overlooks a lively square with many restaurants, we weren't bothered by the noise once the windows were closed. Check-in and reception are handled by phone and text message, with the entry code sent to you so you can retrieve your room key. A simple continental breakfast is served on the ground floor each morning. This is a good value hotel that we appreciated for its convenience, as it allows you to explore the entire city on foot.

08/03/2026: The hotel is centrally located. Our corner room was small but acceptable. A more comfortable mattress would have been nice. The shower was full of mold, as shown in the photos... The rooms are not cleaned.

22/05/2026: An unfortunate experience. It wasn't even worth staying. Dirty glasses and a lack of willingness to explain the menu to a tourist.

09/05/2026: Very disappointed on the evening of May 9th! 5 stuffed vegetables with a little mixed green salad for €17.50!! The steak tartare was too spicy, which overpowered the meat! The fries were overcooked and very greasy!! €9.50 for a lollipop crepe is very expensive!!!! Very pricey for what it is!! The cook needs to improve!!
