La Chaumiere - Nice

We stayed at the Holiday Inn and wanted to have a steak.Just 5 min walk, this small restaurant is a jam for meet lovers.All 3 of us enjoyed the meet,the degree to which the steak was madeInside was very warm but outside was pleasant 9though Smoking is allowed).Service friendly Order a place before...

Looks and feels like a traditional restaurant, not sophisticated, doesn't pretend to be. We have visited a number of times now and always have the menu degustation, not cheap at 89 euro's, wine not included. A simple choice of meat cooked on the open fire, beef, lamb or chicken (think this must be pre-ordered). Menu includes home made tapenade and 'grilled' bread, a large basket of lovely fresh vegetables (self served rustic crudities) the meat course and dessert. This time I had the lamb which was delicious. Has a good atmosphere and you can see the meat cooked from your table, we wouldn't go to often because it doesn't change, but a nice change.

The Chaumiere is located up on the mountain, so might be a bit of a drive from Nice (it's about 15-20min from Monaco) but is definitely worth the drive!Cute typical house, with a huge fireplace where they cook the meat... seasonned to perfection! I believe they are only open on Fridays and Saturdays...

Wow. Wonderfully rustic feel to the place...spent half my time simply enjoying the meat being cooked on the open fire right next to me. The food itself was incredible. The figs and foie gras starter took me completely by surprise, the steak was unbelievable. Would happily go well out of my way to return.

Delicious grilled chicken which you have to order in advance. Otherwise order the amazing grilled lamb. Family run warm staff. Special place.
