Magnolia Café - Restaurant Bar à Tapas Nice — Restaurant in Nice

I will say I won’t recommend anyone to try this restaurant. Seriously, the quality of food is just too bad.

I couldn’t even recall the memory of that meal🙈😆 The fried prawns as a starter was ok. But there’s one called aubergine caviar looked like hummus but very less portion. I was a bit upset about that. At the end, I was only eating the plan corn crisps without any dipping.

The steak I’ve ordered was too hard to chew and it tasted so dry. I was forcing myself to eat. And at the end we didn’t finish. The fries were better than the steak, can you imagine?

The staffs were helpful but I think when we said we wanted to add 10% tips sounds he charged us more than that. I didn’t really calculate but my friend said so.

I definitely won’t go back and NOT recommend anyone to go. There’s a lot of lovely restaurants in Nice, no point to try something...

If you are a 20 something looking for a cheap place to eat. This is a good option. The crispy "Tacos" (big burritos with fried chicken and slathered with melted cheese, lol) were a Tapas but big enough to be a main meal.

But I am not a 20 something. So would have rather had a smaller perhaps more upmarket taco. I won't go back. But doesn't mean it was bad. Just I think I was the wrong clientel. A bit of jam with the cheese would have improved the somewhat dry cheese experience too. Doesn't need to be anything too fancy. Just a little dollop. And if the Creme Brulé would have just had a bit of vanilla in it, just a few pods. That would also have improved the dining experience.

Regardless. It was good people watching, wine was of decent quality. And very...

The atmosphere is effortlessly elegant, combining a warm, intimate ambiance with the lively charm of Rue Bonaparte. Soft lighting, great music, and a relaxed yet refined setting make it a perfect place to unwind, whether for a quiet evening or a friendly night out.

The service was exceptional. Anaïs was attentive, kind, and professional, striking that perfect balance between being present and giving you space to enjoy your evening. Everything felt natural and genuine, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

Magnolia Café captures the essence of Nice — stylish, welcoming, and full of character. From the first moment to the last, it leaves you with the feeling that you’ve discovered one of the city’s true...
