Restaurant Argentinian restaurant

👍👍 This is a hidden gem in Old Nice. We had pumpkin soup to start with to warm our body up, pork chop rice and chicken fillet rice. The pork chop was cooked with a top layer chimichurri sauce tasted soooo good. The rice and side green salads were good enough to fill us up. It feels like a home cooked...

    This is a hidden gem in Old Nice. We had pumpkin soup to start with to warm our body up, pork chop rice and chicken fillet rice. The pork chop was cooked with a top layer chimichurri sauce tasted soooo good. The rice and side green salads were good enough to fill us up. It feels like a home cooked foods from good old grandma recipe. Go early to avoid crowds as the seating area is limited during peak. Besides the good foods we had, the owners are very friendly and we exchange good conversations and world ideas about each other’s country. A MUST TRY lunch or dinner in Mi Casa

    Mi Casa is a wonderful and authentic Argentinian restaurant tucked away in a very lovely part of Nice. The owners are so kind and thoughtful and the food was excellent. We tried each type of empanada and loved every one, but enjoyed talking with Kaisa and her husband even more! The desserts were also so so tasty, and I would recommend this place to anyone looking for great food in and neat and kind atmosphere! We wish we had more time in Nice so we could go back again!

    The couple, owners of this restaurant, are very friendly, real citizens of the world, the food is homemade with a lot of care, full of flavors and excellent service and family atmosphere. It is rare to find authentic places like these. We discovered this gemstone while wandering in the small alleys of Nice and we were amazed by the great variety : empanadas of tuna were so delicious, Chimichurri is lavish, the quantity of food there serve is very generous.

    A great restaurant run by a Finnish woman and an Argentinian man in the heart of the city, but in a side street. We had a lovely chimicurri pig and empanadas. Everything was delicious and really reasonably priced. Big thanks!

    We came for lunch, the staff were really nice and the place is quite and cozy near all touristic places. The food and ok, but for this high rating on google I was expecting a bit more. Value for money

    Lovely small restaurant in a nice, quiet street. The owners of the restaurant were very friendly and sweet. The prices themselves were quite low, especially for the great quality of the food. We were super satisfied with everything. Furthermore, the cute dog of the owners sat down with us.

    Good food for a great price. Had the pork chop with chimichuri. Service is a bit lax but gives it a more authentic feel. Quaint place with (anecdotally) fewer tourists and more locals than most other restaurants.

    Excellent restaurant with great value for price. The waiter made an effort to provide us with a place to sit and the food came quite fast after he took our order. The ambient is amazing, food great and I give my sincere recommendations for this adorable restaurant!!

    cute dog and really good empanadas. The milanesa and Chicken were pretty good for the riviera but empanadas were the way to go here

  • 5/5 Zorica B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place. We came over after lunchtime and the host said that they almost ran out of food but that she can mix something up for us. The broccoli soup was perfect, empanadas too. We had steak milanese, whic was very good. Friendly faces, nice conversation. Definitely worth the visit! Thank you for the lovely meal.

    Wonderful place! The food is homemade and is incredibly delicious! We had the chicken with salad and rice and i can say that this was the best chicken i had eaten in a while! The owner is also a really friendly guy😊

  • 5/5 Bartosz �. 10 months ago on Google
    The food was really amazing, vegetables were fresh and meat was really well prepared. The composition of the dishes was also astonishingly tasty. Staff was super nice and you could really rest there. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Pedro F. 10 months ago on Google
    This place is a gem. The owners, a couple from Argentina and Finland, are truly authentic and simple. Very warm hearting service and good food. The decoration honors its name: it feels like you are eating at their home. Do pay then a visit and say hello in your native language.

  • 5/5 Nora B. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good empanada & salad with Argentinian beer. The owners are very nice. We will definitely go back to try plat du jour as well. Recommended!

    Is it strange to say my favorite thing I ate in France was Argentinian food? This place was a little further out from all the main restaurants but not too far at all. I loved how simple the menu was. Only a few things to choose from, but they did those things well! My husband got the pork chop with chimichurri sauce, and I got the schnitzel.

    A charming and cozy little restaurant in Old Town. The food was excellent as was the service. The prices were low compared to other restaurants in the area. The best part about it was that it had an old world atmosphere to it, as if you were going back in time.

  • 5/5 Lisandro C. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent argentine restaurant in the old city of Nice. I would totally recommend it not only for the quality of the dishes, but the friendly service and prices. We are definitely coming back if we visit Nice again.

  • 5/5 Eetu S. 5 years ago on Google
    Found this place by accident. As a Finn my self it was a great surprise. The place was cozy and small with great owners. We talked a lot, ate great food and drank coffee. And as a coffee lover I had Finnish coffee from "behind the counter". It is a rare treat! Whole heartedly recommend everyone to visit here.

  • 3/5 Robert B. 4 years ago on Google
    For sure the food is home made. But unfortunately wasn't very tasty. Prices are reasonable, the owner is very friendly. But I expect better food in a restaurant.

  • 5/5 Thorolf Van W. 2 years ago on Google
    Backpacking through Europe and I’ve never felt more welcome. I walked in and never once felt berated for my patronage- they simply offered me water, wifi, a safe place to leave my bag and a cute table from which I could charge my phone. 10/10, I enjoyed my feta salad very much

  • 5/5 Charlotte T. 5 years ago on Google
    Such a hidden gem. I had meatballs, mash potato and salad with a drink (any drink!) for 10€! They also had a family puppy out the front. Very cute. Very satisfied

  • 5/5 Peter W. 4 years ago on Google
    Like being invited to neighbour's house. The owners are really friendly and accommodating. The lunch menu offers a number of Argentinian meals for €10 each. The empanadas are authentic and the wine is well chosen.

  • 5/5 Levi I. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a lovely place with very nice service. The foods taste like home, it was a pleasure to eat there. I will recomend it for everyone😄

  • 5/5 Julia R. 1 year ago on Google
    The most delicious meal we ate in Nice! Super affordable, fresh, and the service was wonderful. 10/10 would come back for more empanadas!

  • 5/5 Fredrik J. 1 year ago on Google
    Very cozy, friendly and laid back place. Family owned who are all supernice and have an awesome dog hanging around as a bonus. Food and wine is excellent and very good prices. On a quiet street in a very busy area, I consider this a true hidden gem.

    Lovely little find, the owner and his wife were very friendly and welcoming. Great food, wine and Argentinian beer. Would recommend for lunch when visiting Nice.

    Chimichurri pork chops were delicious. Owners were so friendly. Tiny, quaint restaurant - felt like eating in someone’s home!

    During the first day of our stay in Nice, we dined at Mi Casa and were pleasantly surprised by the delightful flavors of their dishes. The staff warmly welcomed us and patiently explained everything in English. The surrounding atmosphere and architectural aesthetics complemented our dining experience with a visual delight. I highly recommend trying the chicken dish along with an Aperol Spritz!
