The Best Pizza Near La Table du Chef, by the Record
-
A Neapolitan-style pizza spot near the Nice waterfront, where a local artist's work lines the walls and the indoor room pulls well ahead of the sidewalk tables. The dough is light and easy, the toppings chosen with actual conviction, and the appetizers hold their own before the main event. Named among 50 Top Pizza Europe's Excellent Pizzerias, it draws a neighborhood crowd that knows not to skip dessert.

A few tables, an open oven, and a work station you can watch from your seat: La Chamade Lab is a pocket-sized Neapolitan-leaning pizza spot just outside Monaco in Beausoleil. The dough skews contemporary, with frequent off-menu combinations keeping regulars guessing, and a fried pizza selection that earns its place on the menu. Meter-long pizzas are available for the table or to take away, which is either impractical or perfect depending on your evening.

Rank 3. La Pecoranegra
Neapolitan Pizza
Mauro Colagreco's pizzeria sits on the waterfront at Menton, where the Esplanade des Sablettes keeps things decidedly un-austere. The pizza is modern Neapolitan, meant to be eaten with your hands, and the kitchen leans hard into local, seasonal, and organic sourcing. Slow-leavened dough, a wood-fired Neapolitan oven, and toppings kept deliberately spare. The bill runs above what you'd expect from a pizza place, but the view is doing some of the work.
