Restaurant la Primatiale

A small, comfortable restaurant on rue de la Primatiale. For lunch I had a starter Rillettes with toast, a main of swordfish, and desert of cheesecake. A glass of wine and a coffee came to €36.50. Very reasonable. The food was delicious with lots of flavour. The cheesecake was heaven on a plate. Highly recommended.

We came across this place by chance on our first night in Nancy. Even with a bit of a language barrier, the staff were so friendly and welcoming, and really went out of their way to help us. The food was fantastic—we liked it so much that we came back several days (3 out of 5 nights in our stay in Nancy) to try more dishes. My personal favorite was the millefeuille de bœuf à la provençal (see the photo). Thanks for making our stay in Nancy so memorable! We’d happily come back if we get the chance.

This is an incredible combination of flavor, sophistication, and the emotion that leaves a lasting impression. From the moment you step inside, you are enveloped in an atmosphere of elegance and warmth. The dishes are not just meals; they are culinary masterpieces that showcase a perfect balance of taste and artistry. Every bite tells a story, crafted with care and attention to detail. The service is impeccable, with staff who are attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu This restaurant is more than just a place to eat — it’s an experience that lingers in your memory long after the meal is over. Highly recommended for anyone looking to indulge in exceptional cuisine and an unforgettable atmosphere.

Easy to make reservation via Google. We ordered all 4 entrée and 4 main of the day. We highly recommend to try duck tartare and Loster salad. Duck breast and the Hank fish with risotto are delicious . The rest of food are good but not wow. The desert pretend as California roll made by coconut looks better than the taste itself.

Mixed feelings, for the price, food was good - maybe I even expected more, since compared to other places, prices are on the higher side for France, which is generally quite a cheap place to visit. Nothing exceptional, but simple and nice with a bit of experimentation. It will look good on your photos, but just okay tastewise. They have quite nice wines on offer. Maybe it was due to the heat the night I visited (32° C at 22.00), but service was bad. I had to ask for the menu myself, I did not receive it in 10-15 minutes sitting there. The waiter forgot about my wine - twice. I had to go to the bar to ask for it myself the second time.

One of my best meals, if you are looking for something fancy this is the right place to spend a nice night, I had the degustation menu which was 2 entree, 2 plats, cheese and dessert for 60€ without drinks, quality of food was sublime, very recommended 😊

La Primatiale comes highly recommended. It's located in a pittoresque street and frequented by many Nancy locals. The menu offers a small range of entrees and main courses. The millefeuille with confit de canard and avocados was excellent, as well as the entrecote de veau, the turbot and the coquelette. Service was very friendly and accommodating when sharing some dishes. Will definitely visit again!

The restaurant is nice, the service is great, it’s clear the quality of the ingredients, I was just a bit disappointed by some flaws in the execution, like the macaron was too dry (it became a merengue), and the arancini lacked flavour
