Cote D'Azur

Excellent French restaurants featuring the cuisine of, or inspired by, Provence and the Cote d’Azur. I enjoyed the Cassolette d’escargots, a different way to serve this classic. The crispy duck was outstanding. The French bread was too good. The booths are very nice for conversation, as otherwise the noise level can get quite load inside.

Enjoyed a wonderful dinner last night with our first time at Cote d’Azur. It started with a basket of warm ciabatta (bread) served with a dipping bowl of EVOO, excellent balsamic, fresh herbs de Provence, and a sprinkling of fresh Parmigiana. Excellent! Three of us all ordered Seafood Carigout, which was outstanding. A generous serving of PEI mussels, loup de mer (branzino), octopus and shrimp,simmered in their own juices with white wine, garlic, shallots, and fresh tomatoes. It will be difficult to not order the same thing next time - we will be back. Thank you Chef James Waller for the amazing food! And thank you Paloma for the impeccable service.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! All things fabulous! No complaints. FINE dining. Highly recommend-French restaurant. Had the crispy duck-house specialty and most popular dish-phenomenal. The house bread with oil, balsamic and herbs is to die for. Hubby had filet. He said it was good. Had a group of 12, and they accommodated us just fine outside, and still felt intimate and very comfortable. Inside is so Cute! Most people ordered duck. No one else had any food complaints. Had profiterole for dessert. LOVE! The chocolate sauce was SO yummy. Service and food justifies the steep prices. Will be back.

Outstanding gem of a dining experience in North Naples, the best in the area! The service was impeccable in this locally owned, bistro style restaurant. The theme is French/Mediterranean, with a flare all it's own. Service was top notch: attentive and informative without being too intrusive. We had the sparkling water, a Bellini, and a lovely Pinot Noir to start, along with freshly baked warm bread served with EVOO/balsamic vinegar/french herbs/parmigiana cheese for dipping. For appetizers, we had the Cassolette D'Escargots, and these are not your ordinary, rubbery, overbaked escargot on a white dish, not here. There escargots were served cassolette style, braised/simmered in a delicious butter, garlic and herb sauce that added immense flavor and kept the little fellas tender and tasty. Also for appetizer, we had the Rougie French Foie Gras. This was outrageously delicious. The Foie Gras melts on the palate with creamy richness that's an experience in and of itself; this dish is accompanied by cranberry chutney, toasted brioche, a glazed bosc pear and a port wine cassis that perfectly complement the creamy richness of the foie gras. For the main course, we had one of the specials, Lobster served on Angel Hair Pasta with Mussels, and, Roasted Crispy Duck. The Angel Hair with seafood was cooked to perfection with a flavor profile that explodes with the taste of the Mediterranean! The duck was a boneless, roasted half duck; the skin was deliciously crispy and made a nice contrast for the tender duck meat underneath. The duck was obviously rendered during cooking, so it didn't have that fatty component you can get with a duck. It was perfection! Lastly, for dessert with had the Profiterole, vanilla gelato sandwiched in a crispy french pastry, smothered in a rich Belgian chocolate sauce. We also had the Mousse Au Chocolate, which my wife didn't want to share with me (I did get a taste though). Both were a wonderful finish to such a sumptuous meal. Kudos for Chef James Waller and his wife Darlene for having this restaurant and bringing such delights to the people of Naples. If you haven't tried this restaurant before, go! Once you do, you'll have a hard time not coming back again!

We had an incredible dinner here last night. The bread was phenomenal and we enjoyed dipping it in the dipping oil and also in the escargot sauce. Our entrees were the duck and the pheasant, both of which were 5 stars. Very cozy atmosphere and superlative service - we’ll be back!

So much to love about this place! The decor is charming. As soon as you are seated they bring you warm ciabatta bread with an olive oil dip. The escargot and the duck are the best you will ever have. Excellent service as well.

We had an amazing dining experience here. Good selection of non-meat options, which I liked. Food came out delicious and the service was great! Will be back!

What a great little place to have fantastic French cuisine! The lobster is amazing and highly recommend. From the service to the ambiance to the food all 5 star!
