Zoa - Cannes

At last my wife convinced me to join her for sushi. This was probably the right place to test it out. Excellent service and enternainment, but we left as the house became crouded by sushi lovers.

We went to zoa because it was recommended by Daily telegraph as one of the most trendy night spots in town. We soon realized the article was misleading: the quality of the food is average and even some dishes from the menu are delivered from nearby restaurants, the staff is nice but they were chaotic in handling peak hour service, the music was too loud given the small space inside. Completely overrated!

Very cool bar. Fantastic restaurant, great cocktails. They make excellent Dark and Stormy's. The food was perfect for our family, wonderful sushi for my husband and I but also a small selection of child friendly pizza, burger etc.

You visit Cannes and you know anywhere near the seafront ( around La Croisette ) is going to be expensive. This place has good food which appears to be more reasonably priced than the others ,however, order drinks without reference to the menu at your peril! Beer is €10 a glass and if you ask for wine ask for house white which is quite acceptable. You will be offered Chablis and Sancere freely- choose these and you will be looking for the credit card. BUT €10 for a casual beer - shame on them. Plenty better establishments around where the going rate is €7ish and they will at least ask.

Returning to Zoa 6 months later after having some bad experiences and the place didn't change much. Some waiters are obnoxious and unmannered, you ask for some things and they forget to bring, food is still ok yet I miss what Zoa used to be.
