Restaurant JAN
South African chef Jan Hendrik's intimate one-star room on the old port
A working harbour turned the city's most credible dinner address, where seafood tables line deep-red waterfront façades.
Built around the deep Lympia basin where ferries leave for Corsica and fishing boats still tie up beside pleasure yachts, the port quarter has quietly become the city's most credible address for dinner. The deep-red and ochre façades around the water hold a tight run of seafood spots, wine bars and tables that lean Italian, with the antiques dealers of Place Garibaldi at its northern edge. It is less of a thoroughfare than the old town, so evenings feel calmer and more deliberate — people come here to eat well rather than to pass through. The waterfront walk back toward the Château at dusk is one of the better free pleasures in Nice.
