Overpriced and bad experience. We arrived at 13:15 only to be pushed back by the guy who said that they are full and no tables available although there was at least 1 table available with no reservation sign. We sat there and then other appointed waiter tried to discourage us by saying that is raining and there is no place available although it was not raining. I insisted to be seated bcs local people recommended this place to us to try Socca bcs it the local must try Food. Finally they OK-es us and we waited for Socca probably for about 20 mins.

She made us feel very rushed and it visibly bothered her that we didn't know what to order (as no menus were given to us and nothing was explained). We just felt very rushed and unwelcomed, left before ordering anything. No apology from the waitress, just "ok" as in gtfo. Unless you're from Nice don't bother (even if French is your...
