Casa Leya - reviews,open hours,photo spots, things to do | WanderBoat AI Trip Planner

We had the most unforgettable dining experience at Casa Laya, the Italian restaurant nestled along the beautiful coast of Nice. From the moment I stepped in, I was captivated by the charming atmosphere and the breathtaking views of the old Nice architecture. But what truly stole the show was the exceptional truffle pasta. It was a culinary masterpiece that left my taste buds dancing with delight. The rich, earthy aroma of truffles infused every bite, creating a symphony of flavors that I will never forget. The combination of delectable food and a backdrop of old Nice's architectural beauty made Casa Laya a dining experience like no other. I can't recommend this restaurant enough to anyone seeking a taste of Italian culinary excellence with a side of picturesque scenery. It's a true gem on the coast of Nice, and I can't wait to return.

Pretty good restaurant for a popular touristic place. Normally restaurants in the crowded touristic places are expensive and not that good, but this one could be the exception. Good food, nice service and great location. Prices were decent, again for the type of location. We tried Beef Tartare and Poivrons à l'huile (Roasted peppers) for appetizers and highly recommended (I will also recommend the Burrata as appetizer, as the one we got with the pasta was excellent). Pastas (Bolognaise á l'Italien and Penne Arrabiata with Burrata) were cooked perfectly and with nice flavor. The Veal Tomahawk was tender, and for fish we tried Cabillaud (Cod) and Dorade (Bream) and they were fresh and with good side dishes. The portion of the fish was a bit small though. Overall a good experience and I recommend this restaurant in a nice place in Nice!

only thing I liked was ambience here. It is just right in front of the market and close to the beach area as well. I was solo traveler so ordered ceaser salad and pasta with drinks. It took more than 15 mins for them to take my order eventhough there were only 3 table and not a busy time at all. Staff were not nice, (not all of them) but it was not as I expected for sure. Salad portion was big. But I couldnt say it is a ceasar salad since it has more of the basil pesto taste. Also chicken was not tender. And pasta. Maybe I chose the wrong one, i thought the classic never goes wrong but it wasnt. It was tasteless and meat was not fresh. This was the last meal to wrap up my vacay in Nice and I regretted so much. Also staff still asked for the tips, when I didnt get a proper service and in fact they were not nice at all. It is courtesy to do and I always do if I get a service for the appreciation. But when 5-6 staffs didnt attend and ignore ? no.

I was looking forward to eating at this restaurant based on the reviews — but not sure if I am missing something? 1) service was not the best — even though we saw tons of employees constantly moving, no one to help us unless we chased someone down. 2) the food is not bad but probably because it lacks all the flavor. We ordered the “truffle madness”. What is mad about it is that it does not taste like truffle at all. It honestly didn’t taste like anything! It was just BLAND. 3) both salt and pepper shakers were empty and had to ask 2 separate individuals to refill it 4) when asking for help to any employee, they just tell you “you need a waiter for that” instead of helping you call a waiter over Overall, I’d avoid this place and try another restaurant.

Ordered the caesar salad and was not disappointed in the least. Portion was large, gave a really good amount of protein, and am very full after eating it. I also asked for dressing on the side, and the chef was very accommodating. The salad itself was splendid. The sun dried tomatoes added a nice punch of flavour, the almonds and bacon pieces added a nice crunch, and the lettuce was very fresh too. Service was also phenomenal, even though our waiter said his English was not very good, he tried his best and he was amazing. Super helpful and friendly. On top of all of that, the location was also right next to the beach. 10/10 experience and would do come here again if I am ever back in Nice.

I never had eaten this worst dish in my life,, The BONGOLLE PASTA which has bad smell like disgusting wine smell was so terrible,, And the casher (or waiter) has very bad manner. I had to wait for about 40 minutes to order the menu and waited 30 minutes more to pay the menu. So I told her this problem, and said that I don’t have any time to wait more. Because I’m busy. But she said “I don’t think so. I think you are playing now and it’s holiday~!” FFF… Is it the right manner that you guys think of our clients? You have to make the manner to the customers. Because you guys run the restaurant at the beach where people spend the time in holiday^^
