+6Maison Joia exemplifies the harmony of technical excellence, authenticity, and sustainability. I believe a Michelin inspection would find it not only worthy of distinction but also emblematic of the values the guide promotes in contemporary gastronomy.

10/10My wife and I were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary in the Cote D'azur and chose Maison Joia for our special dinner. It certainly was! We chose the chef surprise 7 course dinner with six wine pairings. Since there was only six pairings for seven courses they served us a glass of champagne with the first. Every course was filled with special seasonings and sauces and the presentation for each was inventive, artistic and exquisite. The restaurant is owned snd operated by a married couple, with the wife serving and explaining every dish completely. We could not have had a more satisfying celebration dinner!

10/10We ate here on our last night in Nice. Upon our arrival we were warmly welcomed by one of the owners, the chef’s wife. The space is elegant and comfortable. The focus is on organic and locally sourced food, and each course is beautifully presented and explained. The chef’s creativity, attention to detail and passion comes through in each delicious bite. The entire meal was a wonderful experience.

We were fortunate to spend our last night in Nice at Maison Joia. The experience felt like a combination of culinary education, taste exploration, and magic show. Husband and wife team, Julien and Laetitia Pilati, the chef and the guide respectively, have crafted a unique experience exploring creative and delicious possibilities in an inviting and intimate environment. Their enthusiasm for the food, joy in sharing it, and passion for supporting local French farmers and bakers clearly came through. Each course was thoughtfully presented, verbally and visually. And the flavors and textures were incredible! The meal was an amazing experience that we would highly recommend.

10/10Delicious food served lovingly by the husband and wife team. Very attentive to their guests. A real highlight of our trip to Nice. Would thoroughly recommend a visit if you were looking for great cooking in more relaxed surroundings than those you might find in other ‘fine dining’ establishments in the area.

10/10Maison Joia is a rare gem in the heart of Nice. In one year, they have created something truly special: a dining experience that is both rooted in heritage and boldly innovative. An ambitious and exquisely executed restaurant that seamlessly blends the rich culinary traditions of Northern and Southern France. The menu is a masterclass in contrast and harmony, as delicate Northern French techniques meet vibrant Mediterranean flavors. Each dish is thoughtfully composed, with meticulous attention to texture, balance, and the use of seasonal ingredients. The ambience is refined and inviting, with service that creates an experience that is personal and unforgettable. Maison Joia is not just chasing a Michelin star; they are already cooking at that level. The precision, creativity, and soul in every aspect of this restaurant make it a MUST-visit for anyone serious about food. Hurry and reserve soon - this won't stay a hidden gem for long.

10/10This is a great restaurant run by a husband and wife team. The husband is the cook and the wife services the customers. Small and beautiful place. Quaint and romantic. Service was excellent and the food was absolutely the best. It is deserving of a Michelin star compared to other actual Michelin star restaurants that we had tried. Highly recommend a visit if you are visiting the Nice area of France.
