Restaurant La Gauloise

Nice variety of starters to share — well-presented and full of flavor. For mains, the rabbit leg was a bit dry, but the beef cheeks with gnocchi were absolutely delicious — rich, tender, and perfectly paired. We finished with a pavlova, which was good for sharing, though not particularly memorable. Overall, a solid meal with a few standout dishes. Would come back for the beef cheeks alone!

Food is really delicious, portion is very generous and there is so much seafood with the linguine. However, I have tasted a few grits/broken shell which let down the experience a little. Service also became slow after 8pm simply short of staff. I wanted coffee / dessert after my main but waited 30min and no one could come to me despite I tried to use eye contact and even put my hand up so I decided to get the bill instead. As I walked out, I counted there were 50 customers and only 3 waiters (Wednesday night). Hope the management notice this and improve by providing more resources.

This is a new favorite. Seafood Linguini was delicious and a generous portion. The mussels and clams were fresh. My husband also enjoyed his dish ( plancha). Staff were friendly and very engaging. For reference, we came on a Wednesday for lunch

A must go if you want to eat delicious local cuisine where locals go.🍷 🥘 Absolutely amazing! 👌🏻 The food was super delicious. 😋 The staff was super friendly. 😍 Good wine choice at reasonable prices. Value for money was excellent! 👍🏻

Service was great and warm. We had frito misto as a starter, the fish and prawns were a bit overcooked. Ordered thin tartar and octupus as a main course. Thin was really good but octupus was burnt, chewie, and bitter. My wife didn't even finish it as it was impossible to eat it. Told this to the waiter they said sorry about it. Deserts were really nice and they haven't charged for it, as a compensation for bad octupus. Overall was OK, maybe just a bad day for the chef.

If you like small, local restaurants within urban atmosphere- this is your place with seafood. I’ve visited La Gauloise first time in March and was impressed with their tuna burger , classic french recipe mussels and came back in July. My calmari salad, as a starter, was simple but yet so rich in flavour due to the perfectly cooked calmares. It was a great warm up for the main course. Tuna tartar in a Japanese style was not killed by the marinade, I was able to taste of the fish and combine it with Japanese accompaniments such as wakame and marinated ginger as per my taste. They provide a decent wine cart with a local Provance wines and other French wines, while sitting on a busy street (terrace) you blend a simplicity and fullness of the meals with a vibrant urban atmosphere of South of France.

it was ok. after you show that i you understand wines and food the male waitres are showing good attitude. but still we didn’t have a good place ourdoor although our spending is good.

Genuinely the best octopus I have ever eaten!! The tentacles were perfectly thick, and the pairing with the fresh tomatoes and salad was divine. The seafood pasta dish was also delicious. Will be returning the next time that I am in Nice!

On a 3 jours à Nice, et tous les nuits on a mangé à La Gauloise!! La nourriture est très déliceux!!! (Pardon mon français jsuis americain ) We only had 3 days in nice, and all of the nights here we just had to eat at this restaurant. The food is exceptional and the waiters are very friendly. Will make sure to tell all of our friends to come here if they visit France!!
