Café de Turin
A century-old seafood institution on Place Garibaldi, operating since 1908 and famous for its oysters and seafood platters.
Café de Turin is located on Place Garibaldi in Nice. Run by the same family since 1908, it is a legendary local seafood spot that retains a traditional brasserie style, with the Garibaldi tram stop right outside. The highlights are oysters from the Roumégous farm, shellfish, and crustaceans, with seafood platters ranging from €110 to €330, perfect for sharing; some food writers also recommend their panisse. Open daily, with continuous restaurant service from 12:00 to 22:00 and takeout starting at 9:00. Some sources state reservations are not required, but it is best to confirm during peak season.
