About This Spot

Stepping into Le Canon is like entering a cherished neighborhood retreat nestled in the heart of Nice. The pace slows down here, inviting you to settle into its easy, unpretentious rhythm where time feels measured by the clink of glasses and quiet conversations. Red Formica tables paired with well-worn cutlery evoke the warmth of a family kitchen, while the softly chalked menus hint at the day’s freshest offerings, shared with genuine care by attentive staff who seem as excited about the dishes as you are.

The atmosphere is relaxed yet quietly charged with anticipation—the sort of place where locals gather as naturally as old friends, drawn by authentic flavors and convivial spirit. The natural wines poured here flow alongside meals crafted from local ingredients, each plate a thoughtful gesture to the sea and land surrounding the Côte d'Azur. There’s a sense that every bite carries a story, whether it’s the delicate touch of freshly picked blossoms or the well-curated vintages that echo the region’s terroir.

Le Canon doesn’t shout for attention but rewards those who find it with a dining experience that feels personal and grounded. From the welcoming chatter that fills the room to the subtle interplay of flavors on your plate, it’s a place where moments unfold slowly and the joy of discovery lingers long after the meal ends.

Had a really great dining experience here! Loved the handwritten menu and waiter did an amazing job explaining everything. The wine selection matched the dishes. The food was delicious with some local ingredients. Definitely worth a visit!

On our first night in Nice we came to the Le Canon restaurant by chance because it was very close to our hotel. Red Formica tables and grandmother's cutlery. The menu is written in chalk on a blackboard and the waiter explained it patiently. The dishes are made from local produce and the wine is natural wine. The atmosphere is pleasant. The food was absolutely wonderful. On our last night in Nice we booked a table in advance because we decided to come back to celebrate and enjoy this wonderful place. We also bought a bottle of natural wine to take home so that the pleasure would last longer.

Recommended by a local Nice friend! No tourists! Surprisingly fantastic cuisines One of the best restaurants I’ve been to in Nice Awesome and warm atmosphere Clearly explanation of the menu Highly suggested!!

Laugh-out-loud delicious dinner at this groovy bistro. Michelin recommended but no online reservations. So, the crowd was largely local. Lots of hugs and kisses and two dogs. My meal was tuna sashimi and panfried, breaded swordfish with mashed potatoes and pumpkin. Also, only all-natural wines. Unusual and delicious. I ended with a local digestif, strong and floral, like Chartreuse but more subtle, genepi.
