I wish I had seen these reviews before we went...other sites had rave reviews.
When our group arrived, we were all enchanted with the cozy atmosphere; it is a lovely restaurant.
However...we had hardly arrived when it seemed as if dish after dish was being thrown at us. We felt there must have been a second seating, and there was a time limit of ...

No menu, food keeps on being brought to table, 5 courses (who can eat that much?)of tasteless, mushy, starchy food: tomato stuffed with rice and potato, pasta, lentil puree. Not one salad or raw veggies, winter veggies in the summer! Really bad ending with overwelmingly (amaretto) flavored ice cream, to hide a tasteless fig tart.
I do not like to ...

This was a truely shocking experience. We had gone anticipating what all the guides had suggested would be a really spectacular vegetarian meal. What we discovered was course after course (four in total), of tepid ,repetitive,salty,greasy unimaginitive plates. The culinary experience might best be described as reminiscent of 1960's English ...

The same course served three times (once cold )!!The desert was appalling, the service OK with lots of palaver.Some of the other diners were equally bemused to keep getting the same thing all the time.The restaurant itself is lovely-intimate busy ambience.Not a genuine vegetarian restaurant.Never again!

My husband is vegetarian and as expected France in general was challenging for food for him. This place was a wonderful surprise that I highly recommend for anyone, not just vegetarians. The food was well prepared, unique, and beautifully presented. My husband and I will probably go back to Nice just to go to this restuarant again. I also enjoyed that dinner was a surprise of whatever the chef had prepared for the day. It was delicious!

I thought that this place was amazing.... I didn't like it... I loved it! I love the fact of not going to normal french restauraunts and expecting pizza with pasta on the side. It was a wonderful change in view, too.

Either they were having an off day when we visited or most previous reviewers have wildly over rated this place. However it is very popular, and you will be lucky to get in unless you book.
Service is cheerful and overly quick. Finish one course and the next one arrives. Because its a set menu,nothing is cooked to order, its all ready to serve in ...

Tears will run down your face, the food is so good. Atmosphere off the charts. The chef sings opera from the kitchen and may come out and kiss your hand. He cooks what he feels like. No menu. Just trust him. It's our favorite restaurant in the world and we have never seen anything like it, anywhere. If you cannot get in for dinner, go for ...

I went to Zucca Magia when it first opened many years ago. The food was amazing. But I recently went back with my husband and was a little disappointed. I felt it had changed. The food was good but each course resembled the other in flavor. I think Nice has better restaurants. Like Juni's for example, food that will blow your mind
