find their prix fixe three courses for 13 euros a real steal. Try the Petit Farcis

L'Escalinada 22
Rue Pairolière 04-93-62-11-71 | | For
over 50 years, this traditional auberge in Old Nice from its advantageous position
nestled in the side streets, has served first class typical Niçoise cuisine. Although
L'Escalinada is located on a street that would suggest a tourist restaurant, expect
to see a mix of dedicated locals and tourists alike. The menu contains many of
the Nicoise specials done to perfection: swiss chard-filled gnocchi, tripes a
la Nicoise, and pine-nut tourte de blette. If the main restaurant is filled just
walk a few steps to the right for the annex. Menu
