Safari
1 Cours Saleya

This
is a favorite spot of locals and tourists alike. So be prepared
to wait for a table unless you reserve ahead of time. Both Le
Safari restaurant and the cafe next door ---Civet are run by the
same management.
Don't
be deceived by the emptyness in the above photo. Safari is one of the busiest
places in Nice. During the summer season it's best to come by early and reserve
a table on the outside cafe. There is also a large inside dining area.
The
food is excellent at Safari. Try the rabbit
roasted in the wood oven; an excellent (light batter) fried zuchini or any of
the grilled fish dishes. Nicoise
Specialties are also all excellent. Be sure the try the Petit Farcis which is a specialty of Nice consisting of vegetables that are stuffed with different fillings depending on the vegetable used e.g., eggplant, pepper, zuchini... see the petit farcis image below. And, if you
are a pizza lovers try the Pizza Provencal which is grilled in
a wood oven and made with french cheese, ham and a parsely sauce.
