"I walked into this American 50s diner style restaurant and instantly loved their attempt at authenticity. Except for the fact everyone spoke French, you could have mistaken yourself to be in the breadbasket of the USA and not on the French Riviera! Good work, Chez Max! The authenticity didn't stop there. The menu included all the regulars; burger, fries, Jack Daniels sauce... all the typical American Diner choices. My friend and I both ordered burgers. WARNING: ordering a burger 'medium' in France means it will be served moo'ing with the bell still attached to its neck! The burger patty was massive, but I cut out nearly half of it because the meat was far too raw for this carnivore! Oddly enough, it was still plenty of meat... again, a massive burger patty. My choice was the Jack Daniels sauce burger. (Who can resist a tangy JD/onion goo sauce to go with your tasty tasty burger?!!) Easy enough, yes? One would think....So my burger arrives. It's massive. I mean, so massive I laughed. The waitress sets it down and excuses herself quickly. The manager is standing there smiling as I look up with surprise and amazement to ask, "How do I eat this?!!" He held his hands high and wide like he was holding a 5 pound sack of sugar horizontally and mimed teeth gnashing activity with his smiling face! Lol! Sure, if I'm the Bumble from Rudolph tRNR!! As I pick up my knife and fork to begin this journey, the waitress returns to the table and asks questioningly, "OK?!" I look up, and there she stands with the bottle of Jack Daniels from behind the bar. Complete with pour spout and all... then she looks down at my burger and begins to pour the booze - straight from the bottle - over the top of my bun!! It's flowing over the massive burger tower like a fountain of nectar from the gods! I'm shocked and amazed and confused and ecstatic and concerned all at the same time! All one can do at this point is say "Well OK! That just happened. Carry on." My dining partner looked at me like it was all my fault! (He was clearly jealous! ;) Did I mention the burger tower came with fries? ...that are now soaked in JD as well... I'm not complaining. NOTE: I discourage ordering the sweet potato fries. I knifed and forked that bad boy, sans raw Bessie, til I couldn't stuff any more in my face! The soaked bun gave a slightly bitter explosion in my mouth every time a piece found its way onto my fork. Be honest, you want to try this at home right now!! Lol! My partner enjoyed his burger as well, but was sad they didn't offer non alcoholic beer.This was definitely quite the dining experience! and know I would have liked it even without - what I've come to affectionately refer to as - "the Jack Daniels incident" :))"

If you are looking for a nice burger in Nice, just go to this place. There are a lot of options and the staff is very nice. Together with a nice cocktail it is a great place to go! Not expensive at all!

I had with my colleague dinner at this restaurant. Food is not very good and very expensive for the quality. Only the lady from the service made with her smile and service the stay acceptable. Don't waste your money and time and try another restaurant close to this!

Arrived to Nice late at night and trying to enjoy the beach and have a great dinner before return to the hotel to rest, the food was tasty but salty, good American size and at reasonable prices, the Service was also good except the music was loud and not very pleasant.

We found this place via TripAdvisor, it had a lot of promising reviews. We started with a mojito and after that we got the burgers. I had a veggie burger, my friend a super royal. We both think the burgers existed mainly out of bread, but the vegetables and the burger between the bread were nice! The fries were a little bit hard and the vegetables were ok. We've eaten better burgers and fries, but overa the food was good!

I dined here on two occasions during my visit in Nice with a colleague.On both occasions I had the 'chili' pizza, which was bigger than the plate it was served on.The pizza was great, although I didn't expect the garlic oil that had been poured over the top of it but it done it for me.My colleague had a burger one night, which he quoted as being 'very good' and the pizza that he had on the next visit could not be finished as it was soo big.The staff were very friendly and helpful with translating the menu to English as best as they could.This would be a restaurant I would go back to if I was to return to Nice
