Simply delicious! - Edit
My husband and I ate at Utopia last night June 19, 2024. We were both very impressed by how delicious and authentic the food tasted! We ordered the cheese plate and the blue cheese was just the right amount of “blue cheese” flavor which, we just could not get our brains around…how did they do that?! And the onions were so sweet and perfect! We also ordered the carbonara…I cannot stress strongly enough how absolutely creaming and perfectly balanced the flavor of this pasta was, really incredible! We also got the Diavolo pizza which was also really tasty, although we were both pretty full and had to take most of the pizza home. I wish we had room for dessert as they also looked amazing! The staff we all very kind, friendly, and efficient. We highly recommend this restaurant, and truly appreciate a fully vegan restaurant!

Lovely place, gorgeous owner, delicious food. Many many dishes to choose from. All very tasty, apart from the stuffed bell pepper which I found bland.

Decided spontaneously to go there for food on my birthday, even tho we didn't have a reservation and it was a busy evening the waiters where quick, friendly and attentive. We ordered from the seasonal and regular menu and both were absolutely outstanding! Can only recommend.

Really happy with this restaurant - Edit
We visited on a Saturday evening. It was very busy and had a great atmosphere. Family of 5 and we had the courgette starter to share, highly recommended. Then pizzas and pasta and youngest had a beyond burger. So there was a good variety. So good to see it so busy there

Insane!! - Edit
Incredible selection of totally Italian vegan food. Even my non-vegan father was happy. Delicious pizzas with one of the best pizza bases I've ever tried and an insanely good tomato sauce. We shared the polpetti to start and we all went quiet because it was so good. The cheese alternative they use is one of the best I've ever tried, I believe it's made in house. Really recommend!

Unsatisfied, replacement food - Edit
There is quite many pizza, pasta and other Italian options in a full vegan menu. However, they are all heavily made with meat, cheese, sausage, bacon replacement. It is very difficult to find a something vegetable-based here. As you also prefer more fresh tastes, organic feeling, vegetables in your food it is NOT the place to go. Plus, The pizza was very oily. I think it is quite expensive for a toneless atmosphere.

Disappointed and surprised - Edit
Based on the reviews, and the prices, my expectations were high. However, apart from a fantastic tiramisu (which makes me put 3 stars instead of 2), the culinary experience was a let down.
Read moreThe gnocchi was served with a tomato sauce that to me didn't seem seasoned at all. It had a tiny bit of vegan mozzarella in there but I expected more when the menu that said gratinated.
It was a strange selection on the cheese platter, and to me not very enjoyable. I have had better cheeses from a store nearby, so I did not understand the choices made here.
Maybe we were unlucky with our choices, some meals that were served to other guests looked like they might have been more carefully put together. A lot of people did come by the restaurant to pick up pizzas, so maybe those would have been a better choice in hindsight as they seem popular.
I ended up not finishing my main meal because it wasn't enjoyable to me. The tiramisu on the other hand was delicious and I would come back for that!
I am really happy to visit an all vegan restaurant and I really wanted this to be a nice experience. I hope they work on their recipes a little so that it can really showcase great vegan food to everyone!

Good but expensive! - Edit
I went with the panelle for the starter and it was okay, a bit too rich. For the main I had the orrechiette which was very good, they make their own pasta, sauces and cheeses which is a nice touch. The dessert was delicious but massive! While the food is good I find it overpriced. I paid 50 euros for a 3 course meal and a soft drink which is definitely on the pricey side!

I need a sixth star for their pizza - Edit
It is an extremely nice restaurant with about 30 seats. If you like pizza - and who does not - this is your place. They offer a huge variety of pizzas and other italian food. My wife had a Margherita and I had a Diavolo and a Primavera (the next day) and they all were fabulous. Italian pizza at its best! The serve french and italian wines (italian only by the bottle) too. A selection of sweet deserts are there to seduce you. I had a fantastic banana split that nearly finished me up.
Read moreAll the staff are really lovely, especially Ben who helps with all the difficult decisions you have to make. Hi, Ben! Many people seem to like the place, so you better send a SMS with your name, day, time and number of people in your party to get a table (if they don't pick up the phone).
Pros: everything is delicious, very friendly! English spoken, only open on 3 evenings-otherwise I would explode
Cons: only open on three evenings

As expected - Edit
From the reviews and fb posts I expected a good quality food and was not disappointed.
Read moreI got pieces of soy in a good sauce with baked potatoes and tasty mayonnaise, my friend had a seasonal dish with baked pumpkin, mushrooms, kind of falafel skewers and a lot of salad.
For dessert I had their delicious tiramisu. Everything was yummy and the staff friendly.

Good italian vegan - Edit
The food is good, the pizzas, pastas and desserts are pretty authentic to what you’d find in Italy. It’s not outstanding but it’s nice to have a proper italian vegan restaurant in Nice. A bit on the pricier side.
Read moreI remove 1 star for the 1.5e fee for tap water. They say it’s filtered to justify it but it still is illegal in France to make people pay for tap water, filtered or not, especially since they don’t mention it.
Pros: Good pizza, Vegan tiramisu
Cons: Have to pay for “filtered” tap water

Amazing vegan pizza - Edit
Utopia is such a cute spot with a lot of seating indoors. We got there right when they opened and so we were able to get a seat, but they had asked us if we had a reservation which makes me think at busier times it might be needed.
Read moreThe menu was very extensive with lots of pastas and pizzas. I ordered the Contadina pizza and it was so good that I briefly stopped eating to double check that the place was fully vegan haha (which is of course is!). Definitely one of the most delicious vegan pizzas I've ever had. The crust was spectacular and the cheese had incredible texture.

Not my favorite, though I wanted it to be - Edit
I felt unwelcome there. My salad was unceremoniously plopped in front of me. In comparison, the man next to me had a lovely salad piled High with beautiful vegetables. It was supposed to come in a pizza dough bread bowl, but wasn't. I won't return
Read moreThe"flan" was more of a tart. It was thin and heavy. I do not recommend it
I don't usually do negative reviews but we have this place 2 chances. I will note that my husband liked it fine. But I was very uncomfortable there. Judge for yourself.
Pros: The flavors in the salad were fairly good
Cons: It wasn't presented well in the bowl, I felt unwelcome compared to other guests
