“ Have been coming to Nice for over 7 years now & we always seek to find a new gem every year. So this is it. Saj - First and foremost - I am a meat eater. Saj offers not only a Vegetarian menu but a Vegan one also. Do not let that put you off. It’s a small 22-25 seater boutique restaurant with 3 staff & a hard working owner behind the food. Hummus & Baba Ganoush served on homemade flatbread as a starter followed by a selection of the most delicious & freshly prepared flat bread wraps filled with Spinach, goats cheese & spices. Dessert was 3 “cheesecakes” - Fresh fruit & yoghurt and muesli was also available. We left very satisfied without that horrible bloated pre-night out heaviness that often occurs. Wine & beer are your alcoholic options & soft drinks for the kids. Service with a real genuine smile made by really passionate people. Absolutely go here. ”
“ What a delightful lunch- our meals, the server and atmosphere, 5+! We’ll be back! A bonus for us, our server spoke English as well as French and Norwegian!! ”
“ Had a wonderful meal at this restaurant, the menu was in both French and English and there were a good selection of vegan options which were clearly labelled. The restaurant opened at 6:30pm and we were able to get a table straight away. The place was beautiful with artwork for sale and a creative use of graters as lighting The proprietoress was very attentive to us and was helpful by cutting up the flat bread in the right amount of slices for those of us to share. The vegan cheesecake was absolutely delicious and there was Raspberry, Tiramisu, and mango flavours avaliable. All in all it was an amazing night near to Nices night life! ”

“ Quaint little vegetarian restaurant in Old Town. We sat at an outdoor table so we could enjoy the beautiful weather and watch the ebb and flow of tourists through the street. We had baba ganoush as an appetizer before our meal. The food was terrific and service attentive. ”

“ We had dinner at Saj by Milla last night in Nice and absolutely loved it! We tried the babaganoush and the stuffed Lebanese bread, both completely vegan and full of flavour. Everything tasted fresh, homemade, and perfectly seasoned. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was relaxed — a lovely place for a casual but delicious meal. Definitely a great spot for vegan options in Nice! ”
