한국분들 제발 가주세요! I’ve been to France more than ten times, but this was truly the best restaurant I’ve ever visited. It’s a small place that’s only open three days a week, so I made a reservation in advance — and it was absolutely worth it. The duck I ordered was so tender, and the potatoes were perfectly crispy. My friend even said, “The next restaurant we go to probably won’t be able to top this.“ Thank you for creating such an unforgettable memory for me in Nice. I’m sure I’ll be thinking about this taste even after I’m back in Korea. I’ll definitely come back next time!👍 An incredible experience, incredible duck with very large portions! Great wine, very kind and welcoming owners Marie and Jean-Michel. Would love to come back. Some of the best food we’ve ever had Best duck restaurant in the world! It’s a small restaurant that serves only once a night. The family who runs this restaurant is so welcoming, and more importantly, the food is amazing!! We come back every year.

Incredible dinner, the duck was juicy and full of flavor. The couple who run the restaurant were so welcoming and full of laughs, they made you feel like you were having a home-cooked family meal. Would absolutely recommend for all duck lovers! 🦆❣️

Despite some initial resistance, I agreed to go for a duck dinner – at a restaurant in Nice specialized in exactly that (Restaurant La Route du Miam, 1 Rue Molière). With great skepticism, I entered the restaurant, located in a neighborhood far removed from the usual tourist routes. But: as a passionate duck eater, I left it just under two hours later – thoroughly impressed. The experience was incredible! The extremely hospitable couple who own the restaurant open their charming little place three evenings a week, from 8:00 to 10:00 p.m. The lady of the house takes care of the guests in the most endearing way; her husband – a native Belgian – is responsible for the kitchen, which is in full view of the few guest tables. As someone who has dined in some of the finest restaurants around the world for many years, I must say that this evening was a true encounter with the benchmark of all things “duck.” The meat was tender and juicy, the skin slightly crispy and seasoned with finesse. The delicious fried potatoes were served – as they should be – golden-brown from a cast-iron pan. And the accompanying foie gras also met the highest standards of quality. Even though we were in a rather average neighborhood, the outstanding quality of this little restaurant clearly seems to have gotten around. You won’t get in without a reservation. And almost all of the few tables were taken by international guests. During the course of the relatively short evening, a nearly personal atmosphere developed between the hosts and the guests. They checked in frequently to make sure everything was perfect. Even small special requests were met promptly and graciously. We won’t forget this evening anytime soon! And it won’t be long until we return.
