100% Sushi, Vieux Nice exterior

1. Sushi Bar Restaurant, Vieux Nice

Location
Nice

The heart of Vieux Nice may not be the most likely neighbourhood for a sushi restaurant but this popular place is open for lunch and dinner all year round.

Located on one of the narrower streets of the old town, this sushi restaurant only has a few tables outside and a small inside dining room but they are always busy. The service is usually prompt and friendly, and they have specially priced menus that are very good value.

You can also order sushi to takeaway and they deliver using Deliveroo and Uber Eats.
