I came here for dinner with a group of people during Cannes film festival, and was met with flavors and hospitality that I didn't expect to experience in France.
we ordered several starters for the table, and though we each ordered our individual entrees, the food was so delicious, we each insisted that the other try it. by the end of the night, I believe that we'd ordered/tried a little less than half of the menu, including some of the fresh juices/drinks.
the owner was such a gracious host, especially considering how large of a group we were (we took up nearly one side of the restaurant). each dish prepared with love, she took the time to explain where there were questions.

Read moreOne of the best cuisine that I’ve tasted in all of Cannes and Côte d’Azur. The food, the drinks, the atmosphere everything is done to make you enjoy your experience while you are enjoying your fresh spicy food. My first time there, the owner welcomed my friends and I with a big smile, she went above and beyond to serve us our meals and make sure our needs were met. She even gave us free drinks, which was really nice of her. We are definitely going back. I’m very glad that my friend found this restaurant and suggested we...
