What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
La Locanda Comptoir italien is frequently lauded for its outstanding Neapolitan pizzas, with many calling them the best they've ever had in France. The warm and inviting atmosphere, coupled with friendly Italian staff, creates a truly pleasant dining experience. While most reviews are glowing, some patrons have noted that prices can be on the higher side and a less-than-ideal takeaway experience occurred due to cooling pizza.
"Probably the best pizza I've ever eaten in France, and in a very nice location - literally in front of the Maison Carrée. In a completely different league compared to the one in Montpellier."
Silvio Curia

"Hands down the greatest pizza I have ever eaten anywhere in God's green earth. No place compares to the perfection that these people serve up. It's otherworldly. The pistachio pesto is something I will dream about for the rest of my entire life. I have to come back here. The service was incredible. We sat at a large table out in the street and I couldnt believe how attentive everyone was. I am not just saying this, it is worth a trip to Nimes just to eat here and experience the brilliance and flavor of La Locanda. I am still freaking out and feel like I need to book a flight back tonight. Also, THE CHEESESTICKS!"
