"OMG - what a wonderful place. Family owned restaurant with wonderful food. Many celebrities have visited the place. All the chairs have engraved names from famous visitors, I sat on the chair of Jack Nicholson!! Must make reservation. You will not regret visiting this restaurant. The wine list is worth studying :)) If you are up to it you can order wine for 7000 Euro a bottle! Valet parking."

"A very popular place to eat good meat near monaco ! Cost atmosphere specially in the winter with the fireplace and they serve good starters with truffle specialties . We tasted the melted cheese Camembert which was really good and then we took the grilled meat which was also good and yummy and cooked to our taste ! Have been trying to eat in this place for a year now but it was always full when I was in the area and finally I was able to get it tonight ! I think it was worth the wait . The only draw back is the price which is similar to the prices is the restaurants in monaco which was quite expensive in my opinion ! Apart from that the experience was enjoyable ! I"

"La Chaumière in Nice is well known for its incredibly flavorful meats. The T-bone steak and the Australian ribeye were absolutely delicious a real treat. The waiter was polite, attentive, and gave excellent recommendations. The wine list is perfectly suited to complement the meat dishes, and the apple tart for dessert was simply delightful. Highly recommended!"

"I found La Chaimière during a random google map search for restaurants outside of Nice. The open hearth cooking certainly caught my attention and the menu looked great. I was certainly not disappointed with the generous burrata and the absolutely perfectly cooked steak. Overall great service and a memorable experience."

"Absolutely delicious meal, the truffle camembert was outstanding rich, perfectly melted, and bursting with flavour. We shared a 1.2kg tomahawk between 2, beautifully cooked over a wood fire, giving it an incredible depth of taste and tenderness. To finish, the mousse au chocolat was light, velvety, and the perfect ending to the meal. The atmosphere was warm and cosy, ideal for a relaxed evening. The service was excellent, the staff were friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Highly recommend if you’re after top-quality meat. We’ll definitely be back!"
