"After days of French food during our tour of the Côte Azur, me and my boyfriend decided to try a good pizza here in Cannes. We read some review on TripAdvisor... unfortunately we just read the positive ones without even getting to a negative! Our bad! This made us full of hope and didn't prepare us to experience the worst! We got into the resto And We asked for a caraffe d'eau, a margherita(8€) And a Perugia (11€)without tomato. Of course the "director" was too involved in many other things that he didn't get the right order... To be sure he understood, after 3 min my boyfriend repeated to him that we ordered a WHITE Perugia. With an extremely arrogant smile the man replied he already made our pizza...however, after insisting that we asked for a white one and he was not playing attention, they finally brought us what we asked for! We ate our pizzas and we asked for the bill. Here the best starts! We didn't receive any bill, just a rough sum made by him... At that point, my boyfriend asked if we had to pay 19€ (8€+11€) and the other replied "24€!". My boyfriend asked how this was even possible given what we ate, and the "nice" man said it was not possible to keep a table paying less than 10€ per person! We asked where this rule was written, he didn't reply, he just kept saying arrogant and out of place things. So, following his logic our bill should have been max 20€, not 24€!Then, he even said that we had to pay for the water 5€, that's why it was 24€! But we asked for a caraffe, which is totally free. Moreover, the water he brought us was in an already opened battle evidently used and reused! He even ironically said he was expecting our bad review here on trip advisor... Here you got it!! And I am writing this because I don't want anyone to experience the same! We went there with the best attitude and just the hope to find a nice pizza outside Italy, and we just found the worst of our country there. He just ruined the good pizzas we ate and left us with a huge disappointment! Of course he didn't accept the fact he had to do our pizza again and made us pay for it finally! It was one of the worst experience in my life. I suggest this place if you just care about the food ( just pizza don't know about the rest) but really stay out of it if you don't get with arrogance, insolence and unprofessional people!!"

"Finding a restaurant in Cannes will not be a problem, the offer is plentiful. But I was looking for something different than the usual Italian (lots of good ones though) or French food. So I looked on TA and found this very small restaurant conveniently...located very near the Gambetta market and offering something I had not tried yet, Asian tapas. I will specifically stick to the term Asian because the food here is not Chinese, Vietnamese or Thai, it is all of them. The list of available tapas is long and everything seemed good, so I took the easy path and asked for a tasting menu which was composed of several types of nems, samosa, ribs and chicken. I was asked how spicy I wanted it and took the middle option which was very fine for my taste but might be a bit hot if you are not used to this kind of food. The selection of wines is good too, you can order by the glass, I was advised a red wine which suited the food perfectly. I had a mango for dessert and I have to say it was the best mango I had since in Kenya ... It was that good ! I finished the meal with a good coffee and a nice shot of rice alcohol which was kindly offered. The prices are very fair, but as always, tapas will make you want to try things and it can make your bill heavy in the end, still well worth it. As far as I am concerned, it was an excellent experience, and I have to recommend it, give it a try ! By the way, restaurants usually open at in Cannes, but at this hour, most of them are empty. If you fancy more company, I advise you to go later."
