Hotel Le Negresco

What an absolute amazing meal we had at La Rotonde today! The food was fantastic, better than four of the Michelin star restaurants we had earlier last week in Paris, at a fraction of the price.
Absolute star of the meal was the black truffle ravioli that was to die for. My wife was really impressed with her fish, said it was the best she had had in years.
Staff was also impressive and on point and more than made up for even the slightest slip.
Special mention has to be made for Hoyat, Steve the bartender, and the manager who were truly outstanding!

I went to La Rotonde to have breakfast at the buffet and came with high expectations.
But what was offered left me speechless. All sorts of croissants and other tasty pastries, great coffee and tremendous service, especially by Amira who is not only quick on her feet but also able to propose the best breakfast options tailored to my preferences.

This is one of the top restaurants in Nice, France,here has two Michelin-starred establishments within the Hotel Le Negresco, both of which are quite popular and highly regarded. However, the experience can sometimes fall short of expectations. The starter of snails and the main course of lobster linguine, which costs €18+51, can be somewhat disappointing and a bit dry,desert is too sweet. Additionally, dining outdoors is not recommended as it can be quite cold.

We made reservations for lunch so we could come in and explore the beautiful, historic Le Negresco. None of it disappointed! The Salon Royal with it's beautifully lit dome in the center of the space and all of the artwork surrounding it was definitely worth it. The dining room was wonderfully lit from the south and the views towards the Mediterranean were excellent. Everything about our food was perfect - beautiful and tasty! I think it may have been the best risotto I've ever had and the amuse bouche and dessert were also top-notch for presentation and flavor. Service was friendly and would definitely recommend to treat yourself and check this brasserie out.

I'm shocked and delighted

Very Beautiful Building

Perfect! So delicious and good service. The dishes were exceptional.

Sorry in advance for the bad pictures...

We went in not really knowing what to have but felt that we at least needed to visit a restaurant of this standard as they are trying to get up to "that standard" and we find it fun to test those out..
The hotel were so amazingly beautiful and the restaurant were just as great with the christmas ornaments.

We were guided through the hotel before going to the dining area as one of the first guests for our seating.
Service were excelent and our waitor (Dario) explained the menue and were great as giving us tips.
We places special orders for drinks and let me tell you that they did a better Dry Martini than in central London.... #shame on London.... it's a sad but great thing (If you're in Nice).

We took a tasting menue with an extra plate of escargot as a starter.
Catch of the day were swoardfish and both me and my GF were blown away from the dish.. best fish-carpaccio we ever had.
The wine were superb together with the plates and the server even told us that with one of our plates we didn't need to get the other wine on the menue (that were priced higher) because the one we had with the one before were great with the next dish as well so we could just get another glass instead.

When the restaurant went busy and all of the tables were taken we just started talking about how the service were getting slower and our glasses were getting low we were interupted by the server comming up telling us that the kitchen were running a little behind but they gave us a refill of our glasses on the house.
1-2 minutes later the food came out and all went well... they were on point and didn't need to do that for us.

We have a favorite restaurant in our hometown in Sweden that we feel have the same service.. it doesn't feel like a up-tight restaurant but omg the service and food is great.
What buzz my mind is that the price were much lower when the tab came. (Don't get me wrong.. it's high end, but what you get for your money is way more than your coin).

Please... I hope that they get their star so that we can get a table again and say that we tried it before and after -because they deserve it.
We have been at places with stars and they have not been as good as the food we had here.

Only complaint is a personal one because I didn't like the texture of the spunge-cake (I'd like it a little more solid) but It's like saying that a perfect mid-rare steak isn't good because you like it mid-done... I won't remove anything from the score because all the sides to it were great and worked.

I would say sorry to Dario for taking this long for writing a post.

First good stop in Nice and this one does not disappoint! Right on Promenade des Anglais, this restaurant offers a good location, great food, and a nice atmosphere.
We sat outside but there was someone playing the piano inside and you could make song requests.
