La Vieille Maison - Èze

I am not a big fun of fancy restaurants! Ofcause where are a lot of them in that part of France! But that small restaurant near by the rout has also a nice view! Simple but very lovely cousine! All dishes are fresh! If you want just simple evening with good food and lovely service, go here! It's not fancy! And portions are not small! And ofcause its tasty! Funny, but where are not many russian people)))

We stopped for lunch and started with entrée’s of oeuf with mayonnaise (best of the trip), a tomato salad, & a salad Nicoise. Very generous portions, all of which were very good. I had the plat du jour, which was an odd combination of many things, but each element of the dish was very tasty. It was roast beef, cornichon’s, olives, tabbouleh, potato salad, & pasta salad. My friend had the cod with a tian, tomate Provençale & frites, she said it was sensational! My boyfriend had the Milanese, with frites which he enjoyed as well. They are also a popular take out restaurant as many people walked out with prepared hot sandwiches to take away. The service is wonderful & friendly.

I had lunch in a Saturday so we could only order "a la carte".I was quite disappointed considering the pretty good ratings. The food was basic to me although the service was very friendly.I had carbonara pastas and it was served with basic Emmental cheese, not Parmesan which is a mistake in itself and the egg was not put on top but already mixed. Considering that it a basic recipe I can only be disappointed. Other guests had salade niçoise, nothing very elaborated neither. Also the terrace is literally on the road side and hence quite noisy. Inside was much better with modern amenities.

This a nice place by the beach (there is NO view to the sea) on Villefranche. The food is very good with big, big servings (the sandwiches are for 2 people easily). I recommend the tagliatelle carbonara. Attention only to the fact that although they stay open throughout the day, during the afternoon they only serve 2 types of pasta, salads and sandwiches.

Eze beach is fabulous. Clear water, no crowds, shady in the late afternoon and two mins from the train station. Pop in here for their Plat du Jour or they will even knock you up a sandwich to take on the beach with you. What's not to like ?
