The grandest dining room on the Riviera — a MICHELIN-starred restaurant inside Nice's most iconic hotel, with a Louis XV interior and Riviera-meets-haute-cuisine menu.
Why It Belongs on the List
Chantecler is housed in a remarkable Louis XV room within the Negresco, with carved panelling, Aubusson tapestries, and crystal chandeliers creating a setting more extraordinary than almost anything else on the Côte d'Azur. Chef Virginie Basselot holds one MICHELIN star for cooking that celebrates Niçoise and Provençal traditions through a fine-dining lens. The most formal and prestigious dining experience in Nice.
What Stands Out
- One MICHELIN Star
- Louis XV–style dining room
- Located within the Hotel Negresco
- Elevated Niçoise cuisine
- Most prestigious restaurant in Nice
