Cheer Mamma — Restaurant in Grasse

For those who gave this restaurant 5 stars, I don’t know what you guys were smoking but it must be strong because this restaurant deserves 1 STAR AT MOST.

Staff: Unattentive and forgetful. We initially ordered a bottle of stilled water, which we didn’t receive 30 minutes into our meal so we assumed they forgot and instead asked for tap water. They then charged us for the Still water when we paid the bill, to which I showed them the bill and they refunded us with cash.

Price: Outrageously overpriced for the food quality and service. For context, I paid 100 Euro for 2 people, and I had paid 50 euro for the same meal at different restaurants nearby that were WAY BETTER.

Food: the worst experience of all. Our seafood pasta and spaghetti carbonata were as salty as the sea that I swam in during the morning. The carbonara was also swimming in oil. We eventually had to ask the waiter to send it back and redo. They gave us the dishes back that were definitely just rinsed and reheated as the shrimp head was exactly the same but more overcooked. The pizza was edible, but the anchovies were also overly salty.

Environment: The outside seating area was fully booked, so we could only eat inside. Unfortunately, the inside had no air conditioning so we were submerging ourselves in our own sweat. I could only imagine how hot the kitchen was, which probably affected the taste buds of the chefs. The waiters kindly let us keep the menus so we could fan ourselves. Amazing! (sarcasm)

COME HERE AT YOUR OWN WILL. YOU HAVE...

Upon arrival, the staff said "You cancelled your reservation on TheFork 10 minutes ago". I said, "No, I didn't". They then proceeded to INSIST saying that "YOU cancelled your reservation." Long story short, after 2 workers there (1 looked like the owner) accusing us in a VERY RUDE tone, they said it was fine because they still had our table. THEN WHY BOTHER MAKING US FEEL SO UNWELCOME IN THE FIRST PLACE if you had a table and it was not an issue? Literally felt like they were trying to pick a fight about the reservation as their voices escalated while talking to us. If we didn't want to walk around aimlessly to find another restaurant in busy Cannes, we would not have eaten here after this experience. Ordered the tuna tartare and the driest burratina with Parma ham. HORRIBLE! Like ordering from a bad chain restaurant. Not special or authentic in any way. Carbonara was extremely oily. Vongole was ok. So 1/4 dishes were ok. We did family style and waited 35 MINUTES BETWEEN THE STARTERS AND MAINS. RIDICULOUS! It's as if the restaurant was punishing us! Our 2 year old was falling asleep waiting over 30 minutes for her pasta. Bottle of wine was also empty before we got our mains. Would have ordered more wine if the service here wasn't so unbelievably rude and unprofessional. Go somewhere...

Excellence italienne parfaite. Des mots que l'on utilise quasi jamais pour décrire un Restaurant.

Cheeer Mamma a sû nous gâter avec ses plats délicieux, cuisinés d'une part avec le plus grand respect envers la cuisine italienne traditionelle, comme chez la Nonna, mais en même temps avec des élements d'une cuisine "fusion", qui démontre le savoir faire du personnel de cuisine.

La pizza de la table voisine nous a mis l'eau à la bouche.

Comme entrée, un vitello tonato et une focaccina ont fait un très bon début.

Sur recommandation du garçon/serveur, j'ai choisi le filet de thon mi-cuit, avec ses accompagnements, qui me semblaient être de très haute qualité, une cuisson parfaite, et relevé par une tendresse incomparable. Les accompagmements étaient des légumes grillés, tels connus de grand chefs italiens, en parfaite combination avec un vin minutieusement choisi de la liste de la cave à vins.

Nous avons d'autant plus demandé une spaghetti carbonara, façonnée de manière tradtionelle:

Bas-joue de porc (Guanciale), bien croustillant, en forme de dés, mélangés dans leur sauce affaisie de peccorino et de jaune d'oeuf, sans crème. J'étais content de revoir un restaurant qui reste humblement sur cette tradition.

Les plats, contrairement à ce que l'on pourrai penser, étaient trés copieux. Les desserts n'ont plus trouvé le chemin à notre table, car nous étions bien servi, et n'avions plus de place pour une belle Panna Cotta ou le Tiramisu, qui nous souriait depuis la table du voisin.

Comme déjà evoqué au serveur, je donnerai facilement le maximum des points sur toute la ligne.

Service: Aimable, Reactif, Chaleureux, Acceuillant, Compétent, Cadre faimilier

Carte: Un choix très conscencieux des meilleurs plats de la cuisine italienne, plats de poissons excellents dû à la localité de bord de mer

Qualité des plats: Bonne présentation, Copieux, Bonne qualité, Gout excellent, Produits Frais, Préparés à la minute

Disponibilité: Mieux reserver à l'avance, mais possibilité d'essayer spontanément.

Point fort final: Respect de la cuisine cullinaire italienne.

Pour un endroit touristique, ce Restaurant vous offre un cadre très chaleureux, et respecte chaque client et ses désirs.
