Epiro Nice | Vino e Cucina — Restaurant in Nice

Our very first meal stop in Nice, and one we were really looking forward to! The restaurant is tucked just off the right side of Nice Harbour, a little further from the Old Town, making it a cozy spot away from the main crowds.

We ordered the pasta and a charcuterie platter. While the presentation could use a little polish, the flavors more than made up for it. The pasta was perfectly cooked to European standards, with a meat sauce that was rich, authentic, and not overly salty. The charcuterie selection was fresh and paired beautifully with their bread and olive oil. To finish, the espresso was exactly what we needed—bold and satisfying.

The service was warm and welcoming, and even though the menu doesn’t have English translations, the staff spoke excellent English and were happy to help.

Highly recommend this spot if you’re in Nice. And fun fact: the owner is a dead ringer...

Wow! This meal was incredible. It’s a small menu featuring seafood oriented appetizers and pasta main dishes with a really exciting wine list featuring smaller Italian producers. From the start, the person who served us guided us to a wonderful sparkling wine from Italy. The tempura style calimari with a red pepper sorbet was a brilliant pairing. The octopus was delicious and perfectly done. The pasta was… incredible. We are in Nice for three days and we asked for another reservation for the next night, it was that good (but unfortunately they were closed). I can’t recommend enough! It’s on the port side of Nice as well so outside the main tourist area. The service was awesome! And to add, they will can (literally put in a can and seal it) spritzes and gin & tonics in case you need a drink to go. Make a...

The swordfish and pasta were good, but the tiramisu was inedible. The crust was hard and chewy as if it was old. The one server at the restaurant (a bald old man) was absolutely terrible. He was rude, wouldnt bring us our food and even delayed the billing. When i finally got tired and went to the bar to place our order, he kept exasperately talking at me telling me “madam, im working.” Sir, if you were doing your job i wouldn’t have to come to the bar to order my own food. Please improve your customer service and perhaps hire wait staff thats not racist? Also why was there a screw on our table? Was it part of...
