Villa Archange - Bastide Bruno Oger

A decade has passed since my last visit to this establishment, and remarkably, some elements remain steadfast. The culinary creations continue to astonish and delight, characterized by their inventive flair and exquisite flavors that linger on the palate. However, the service retains its signature brusqueness, a stark contrast to the artistry unfolding in the kitchen. This juxtaposition between the sublime dishes and the abrupt service creates a unique dining experience that is unforgettable, if not entirely comfortable.

We went to the Chef’s table and it was like watching a true conductor work with his orchestra. From the magic in the kitchen to the tastes and complexity on the plate, Chef Oger and team truly surprise and delight with every bite

So positive and nice atmosphere in this place. Of course you have to pay for it, but I have visited to many Michelin restaurants even with 3 stars , but this 2 stars Michelin restaurant deserves to have 3 stars totally ! Dinner for 2 without wine is around thousand. The chef was visiting each table in the end. Each food had a unique flavour and a lot effort was put into making. Thank you Bruno Oger and your team for our nice evening in May ❤️🇫🇷

This 2 star Michelin restaurant is my new fav restaurant worldwide. If staying in Nice, Caan or anywhere near this restaurant - it is a MUST go. The food was exceptional and very unique. Chef Bruno is very talented and creative. The menu changes but I would recommend the 5 course tasting menu. Plenty of food. I would also suggest the wine pairing which complimented the experience perfectly. The setting is an old house and we sat outside which made the ambiance over the top.

Hands down the best restaurant meal I have ever eaten. Mind you, I rarely get the opportunity to dine in a Michelin starred restaurant and have only been to half a dozen. Everything about the experience was superb. Minor quibble- the steep walk uphill and down on the driveway from the restaurant was difficult for my wife, who had on leather sole flats which slipped. She would have fallen if I had not been holding her hand. Upon arrival at the Villa, from the moment we were greeted by the Maitre d’Hotel we were comfortably. There were only 11 tables on the terrace, well spaced and a wait staff of 5. They were very attentive but not intrusive. The patron stopped at our table to welcome us and then before being offered a menu, we received complimentary hors d’oeuvres which set the tone for the rest of the evening. The presentation, texture and flavors of this painstakingly prepared small morsels were superb. We chose the 9 course “surprise” menu, each course perfectly prepared and plated and with bursting flavors. The only food disappointments were the voilaille (chicken) course which seemed undercooked. Definitely not in the same league as the other 8 courses. Our favorites were the langoustine and bar (Mediterranean sea bass) courses. All of the courses were imaginative with delicate flavors and textures. We cannot comment on wine pairings since we don’t drink. The end to a perfect evening- mint tea and a gift box from le patron. This is the type of meal I can only dream about all year until we return to the Côte d’Azur. One you have appreciated a meal such as this, everything else pales in comparison. Thank you M. Oger

Thank you Villa Archange for the amazing evening, so romantic and delicious! Beautiful place and interesting ingredients combination. Also want to thank sommelier who helped with perfect wine !

Every single dish is a masterpiece!!!! The atmosphere in the garden is magical! One of my best fine dining experience I had. With the personal touch of the chef coming to the table asking if everything was all right! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

A wonderful experience, cannot recommend too highly. The food is magnificent in all terms: imagination, flavour and presentation. The five-course menu is perfect and at a very restrained price. M. Oger is certainly King of Crisp, but also presents a sublime dish of oyster and caviar wrapped in cucumber. But restaurants are not all just about the food; the sommelier and staff are very warm and welcoming with a perfect balance of charm, friendliness, efficiency and yet, not being too intrusive. M Oger, himself is extremely welcoming and warm. Perfection.
