Gault&Millau's review

13/20

Chef's Restaurant There's no doubt that La Réserve has been a fixture on the Nice scene for ages. Boasting one of the finest views of the Baie des Anges, it's the chic and glamorous place to be, with its yacht-like decor of precious woods and gleaming chrome, overshadowed only by the impeccable attire of its impeccable waitstaff. At the helm is chef Jérôme Cotta, a former companion of Dominique Le Stanc's at the Negresco, who focuses on simplicity, drawing his ideas from the produce caught each day, as well as the region's finest meats and vegetables. The first three-course Canon de Midi menu at €45 shows the way. But it's on the "more serious" menus, in three or four courses at €100 and €125, that the chef makes his mark, with land and sea proposals that may be a little classic, but are well executed: roasted veal sweetbread escorted by asparagus in hazelnut Viennoise and a tartelette with onion confit and asparagus brunoise with tarragon, under an invigorating siphon of yuzu sabayon; back of sea bass lacquered in beurre blanc, accompanied by leeks burnt with a blowtorch and a maraîchère of spring vegetables, topped with a marjoram shellfish foam; finally, the 70% chocolate soufflé should put everyone in agreement. The cellar, with its sixty or so references, caters for all tastes, with the added bonus of some fine finds from the hills of Nice. A second chef's hat.
