La Palme d'Or - Cannes

We had an enjoyable dinner with great service. All foods are of high standard and the portion is appropriate. Wine selection was excellent too.

We had the lunch menu. Everyting was top. That goes for food quality, presentation, creativity, service, wine, price/quality and service. In the top of Cote d'Azur. We will for sure return.

We returned again for a lunch on a sunny Friday. Once again, for us, it was faultless.We had the amazing value 78¢ lunch menu, which includes about 6 courses and a bottle of wine between two, and coffee.The welcome was lovely, the service just right - attentive, informative and friendly, without being too stuffy. It is easy to relax here and enjoy the experience and the views.Each dish was very good - we both had different versions of the menu and all of the dishes were impressive, with beautiful flavours bursting with each mouthful. If I remember correctly, every dish had a sauce poured over or around it, but we expect that in France.We can't wait to go again and would thoroughly recommend it, but I think we would always go for the realistically priced lunch menu.

We had booked this restaurant as the highlight of our stay in France. On arrival we were greeted by very professional staff and given the most amazing table at the front of the terrace overlooking the sea and promenade. The innovative menu format was intriguing and excellently paired with a personal written introduction from Cristian Sinicropi. My wife and I both went for the menu Degustation. Every dish was an amazing burst of flavour and really showcased each ingredient. If I was to be overly critical this did mean that the dishes were slightly on the small side and with this size it could have done with one more. The evening was going amazingly well up to our cheese course. We were shown the cheese trolley by one of the waiters who instead of describing the cheeses as you would expect merely said these are the goats cheeses and these are the sheep milk cheeses. I enquired about a specific goats cheese and all he said is that it was a goats cheese. I asked if it was hard, he replied semi-hard. I asked if he could give any more detail and he just replied, “No”. I was utterly amazed not only at the lack of information but his complete rudeness. You would never dream of hearing that from somewhere like Le Gavroche. After that he served us dessert and actually started walking off as he completed the explanation of the dish. He obviously didn’t want to be there and this should have been picked up by his manager. This left a very bitter note from the whole experience which was such a shame as the kitchen and the rest of the front of house were fantastic.

We had a perfect dinner during the Festival of Pyrotechnic Art of Cannes. This restaurant doesn't have just excellent food: all details have been planned including tableware, the presentation of menu and the timing of service. I noticed just one mistake during the dinner: I got a pigeon main course a bit too late, because I couldn't finish eating before fireworks. This was a minor issue, and partly caused my own need to enjoy and delay.
