namura Book a table

Japanese kitchen · Nice

Quiet Japanese cooking, served slowly.

namura is a small room in the heart of Nice where sushi, robata grill and a seasonal omakase are prepared in front of you. Low tables, a garden view, and a menu that changes with the market.

What we do

Three ways to eat with us

Sushi & sashimi

Edomae-style nigiri, cut to order from fish chosen that morning. Rice seasoned with red vinegar, served at body temperature.

Robata & ramen

Skewers grilled over binchotan charcoal, and a slow tonkotsu broth simmered for eighteen hours before each service.

Omakase

Eight to ten courses chosen by the chef at the counter. Ask for the seasonal tasting and let the kitchen decide.

Woven seats and a long timber table set for dinner beside the garden window

The room

Low tables, a garden outside

Timber floors, paper screens and lanterns woven from rattan. A stone garden sits just beyond the glass, so the room stays calm even at a full service.

  • Floor seating with cushions, no shoes needed in the tatami room
  • A long communal table for groups of up to six
  • Private room for eight, with its own entrance from the courtyard

“We came for lunch, the bento was perfect, and the staff remembered our names the next time.”
