Why Travelers Love Oliviera
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
An absolute gem in the heart of Nice! Dining at L’Oliviera was one of the most memorable experiences of our trip. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like old friends. The passion of the owner Nadim shines through in every detail—from the stories behind the olive oils to the warmth in the service. Each dish was beautifully prepared, bursting with flavor, and thoughtfully paired with unique olive oils that elevated everything to another level. A must-visit if you’re in Nice—this is not just a meal, it’s a memory. Terrific food. The owner is super friendly and makes his own olive oil. Just the olive oil tasting is worth it! And the local vegetables just taste so fresh. Incontournable. This place, located at the heart of Old Nice is a necessary stop for a wholesome experience in Nice. Best service, and the short—but generous in flavor—menu (incl. vegetarian options) will not disappoint. The two kids enjoyed the incredible lasagna and the adults the pesto spaghetti and the uniqueness of the lapin sur pâtes. I haven't ever tried a better broth. Get some olive oil for the road and leave feeling you cannot do better with your time and appetite.

After nearly a week in Nice and a slew of disappointing restaurants, Oliviera finally broke that streak. Everything was truly fantastic, from the lovely owner to the delicious food and even better olive oil, we couldn’t help but scrape our plates clean. A true gem and a must visit for your time in Nice.

True local gem. Fresh and light food highlighting olive oil. Owner services all tables with humor and warmth. Pesto pasta was amazing and the tomato with cheese was the best I’ve ever had
