Call this quirky, I agree. We were greated in an empty restaurant with " we don't accept credit cards". This is in Nice how many foreigners visit here?! So we went to tha bank round the corner and drew out 50 Euros. Had a lovely meal, good food but very 1970s, a bit over dressed. We made the mistake of... More

The room is very full of antique furniture and pictures with very heavy wooden chairs and tables. Some may find it absolutely charming and others may think it a bit old fashioned and cluttered; but the food is excellent. We shared a plate of fois gras and charcuterie. My wife had a steak in a pepper sauce which she loved,... More

Our experience in this restaurant was very good. It seems like a very authentic french restaurant. the food we got was very good. It might be a little expensive, the mains were about €24-26 but I guess this is the normal for nice.

A small place with good value and excellent quality of dishes, well located near Place Mecina. We went back but found it closed the second time, not sure why.

The place certainly has quite an original interior - a bit like an old antique shop or something - not sure it's the most suitable interior decoration for a restaurant though, it felt a bit over the top. When we went, the place was basically totally empty, and I have to say the food wasn't particularly inspiring either...

Don't be put off from the outside! Really great dining experience even if it does feel like you are about to sit down to eat in an eccentric's living room from the 1950s. We really liked the service here as the waitress talked us through the chalkboard menu explaining the dishes. Don't be scared they can speak English if you... More

We had a dinner at La Gargamelle last night, following many excellent reports on Tripadvisor. It was just great - fantastic food, great friendly service and, what was not mentioned in many reviews, unique interior of the restaurant. It offers quite simple, but high-quality food - nothing extraordinary, but very well prepared. We enjoyed it very much. As to the... More
