"In the centre of Cannes, this contemporary bistro is always busy and, indeed, it has much to recommend it. First and foremost its menu: courgette flower fritters, cod aioli, rack of lamb roasted with thyme… and the classic Grand Marnier soufflé, the house speciality." - Michelin Inspector

This is the best meal I had in Cannes.The service was excellent, the food was out of this world. My rack of lamb smells so great, I want to lick to plate. The fish was wonderful as well, that's very strange way make ordinary dishes to excellent Of course let's not forget the most important thing the SOUFFLE. Even you only order a one dishes you must order Souffie for dessert just to experiences. Highly recommended

It is a wonderful restaurant located in center of Cannes. We had no reservations , they were very helpfull. Aperols was perfectly mixed. We ordered lunch menu. Elderflower was nice, tuna was amazing, fish cold aioli as main course was just ok, daily special meat was ok also. Suffle was interesting, different taste and orange crepe was good. I am not desert fan very much. The house wine is great. Lunch menu is 33 euro , with drinks we paid around 60 euro per person.

The lunch special is a steal for only 33 euros. The food was the best we had all trip and the potato topped with fig that went with the daily special duck entree was divine. Would go back next time we are in Cannes.

The starter with the egg and truffle was the best of the three. The salmon was also nice. Duck leg was tender yet a little too salty. Chicken wad quite good. Soufflé was okay. Not as fluffy as i imagined, but good enough. The orange sauce’s alcohol taste was stronger as it was poured onto the soufflé; when it was tasted solely, the alcohol wasn’t as strong. Personally i liked it to be eaten separately (as in have a spoonful of soufflé and dip it with the sauce so that the alcohol taste isn’t as strong.).

Cozy restaurant with superb food! The starters are a decent size; I now know why they have the option to just order a starter with dessert for the lunch. They also have the option of just an entree with dessert for lunch. I’ll probably choose one of those in the future, but I’m also so happy I got to taste all three courses. For the appetizer I had the pargma ham with arugula and burrata. The entree was the sliced chicken with chutney. And for dessert, the homemade sorbet; which was three scoops, each served on its own circular ice plate; mint, strawberry; fudge. I would order all of it again!

Excellent. Great menu. Great service. Best ceviche and most beautiful too. Waiter was very friendly. Not a stuffy place at all. Fancy but not snobby. And the food is truly delicious!

Great food and service. I had a wonderful experience. You can't go wrong here. I recommend this place for sure.

amazing service! the staff were so friendly and always making jokes. the inside is also very fancy but their 3 course menu isn't too expensive (~$55). the foie gras appetizer was really good, better than the foie gras i've had elsewhere. the main courses were both okay, not as much flavor. the tiramisu was good would recommend. the souffle was very fluffy and we liked the consistency but it has a slight alcohol taste to that i wasn't a fan of

Food was great. Waiter was horrible. He was rude to me, but not my friend. Mad about me speaking English.

Usually when my family and I go for dinner it is me who makes the reservation, however this time I didn't. Even though it wasn't my choice I was looking forward to the restaurant. Shockingly it was a quaint little restaurant with a posh yet unpretentious vibe. The lights were low, the wine was stocked and the kitchen was the shining star at the back of the restaurant, visible through a large glass window. The chefs seemed like the kind you see coming out of institutions like Paul Bocuse. The bread service was delicious with the bread being made that day (although not warm) and the butter being not to cold so that it was spreadable. We deciding to drink some beautiful white wine from Bandol (Chateau de Pibarnon 2018) which was fantastic. Our waiter was extremely patient and welcoming which is sometimes hard to come by in France (especially because we were a group of 10). We got their prix fix menu which was 48 Euros and had about 6 options for each of the starter, main and dessert (a great price considering some of the a la cart dishes were 48 euros themselves). I started with the sea bream ceviche which was done in the style of a tartar. The Ceviche was really delicious however did lack a certain aspect of acidity. But I really love how the chef made this more of a "dry-style" ceviche where the plate wasn't overflowing with juices. The little toasts that accompanied the ceviche did leave something to be desired because they were brittle and seemed to be made hours ago (fresh would have been appreciated). For the main I ordered the seabass with crushed potatoes, which was simply divine. I cannot say enough great things about this dish. The fish was cooked and seasoned to perfection, with the skin side being crispy and the fish being moist. The sauces and vegetable accompaniments were extremely well balanced, while not taking away from the extraordinarily fresh fish. I also ordered the foie gras off the a la cart menu because I had to try it and that had to be one of the best decisions I ever made. The foie was firm yet soft and paired extremely well with the sauce which was slightly sweet and sour. For dessert I ordered the Soufflé with Grand Marnier. I had a little mishap and poured the sauce on prematurely, where I was promptly notified by another patron that you have to first make a hole and then pour the sauce in. The soufflé was light and airy which paired well with the citrus based sauce. We went to many restaurants in France that were on the Michelin guide and being honest, I felt many of them did not deserve to be there. However, this restaurant deserves a high place on the Michelin guide. To the chefs, I cannot thank you enough for the very best meal I had in France. I believe if you keep doing what your doing you will have a Michelin star in no time. I will be back every time I visit Cannes and cannot recommend this establishment enough. 5 Stars.

On our list of Michelin star ranked restaurants to try out, this one stands out for its modern decor and equally modern palate. We had the 3 pieces set dinner menu for 46 E pp. My starter was the artichoke soup, which I'd never had before and was absolutely delicious with a subtle flavour enhanced by thin strips of Parmesan and drizzled over with truffle oil. Husby had the artichoke salad with arugula and turnip slices was equally good in an unexpected way. Our main was a generous portion of perfectly cooked sea bass and the skin crisped also to perfection, placed on a bed of mashed potatoes and topped with lightly pickled onions, capers, cilantro and dill. To end a perfect meal, I had the Grand Marnier souffle, which is prepared by a pastry chef you can see from the restaurant and comes to the table hot out of the oven, they don't skimp on the liquer either! Husby had the fruit pavlova which tastes as good as it looks and them some! The berries are fresh and the balance of flavours is just right, not over bearingly sweet if there's such a thing! The wait staff are friendly, and speak English and have a sense of humour. They too speak enough English to communicate with you, and you'll probably speak just enough French to get by. Bon appetite!

Wonderfully delicious food. The menu is small, and often changes. However, this makes going back to it a treat as you are often forced to try new and delicious dishes. However, the restaurant is small. And there are a lot of tables. And it fills up all the time. So, if you're looking for a nice, quite place to have a even somewhat private dinner with anyone, this place is definitely not for you.

The service was accommodating, warm and efficient; unlike most Cannes restaurants, you can count on finishing in time for a screening. The food was delicious, especially the appetizers. The ambience is clean and modern. I wonder whether this used to be a sushi restaurant? Our French friends were equally impressed.

Found this place by accident for our last dinner in Cannes. Oh my!! The $46 menu is unbeatable. The soufflé is what dreams are made of. First time in my life I went to bed without brushing my teeth so that I fall asleep still tasting it.

L'Affable is a very good restaurant by any standard - service, environment, attention to detail, and most importantly, a well prepared series of courses. Each dish arrived beautifully plated and perfectly executed. French and English patrons were mixed throughout the room - and it seemed like virtually everyone chose the Grand Mariner soufflé for dessert as I did. Great ending and a place to return to again and again.

Apparently this is where Sarcozy and Obama went for dinner when they were in town. I don't blame them. The cozy, single enclosed dining room is perfect for undercover diners, while the visible kitchen up top executes some high level fare. The foie gras was smooth and buttery. I was enamored by the perfectly cooked lamb entree and the grand marnier soufle was light, airy, complex and unforgetable. I am a chocolate fan myself, so I secretly hoped they would offer a chocolate souffle instead. They are forgiven, however, since they seem to have perfected this particular recipe. I would say this is a must go while in cannes.

Best meal I've had in Cannes in ages! Modern restaurant a short walk from the waterfront with a comfortable atmosphere, nice service and food so pretty one wants to take a picture. Wine list was extensive enough. Best part was the dessert - make sure to try to Grand Marnier souffle. Note the the restaurant is small and packed year round (we went off season) so make a reservation.

Very good, nice service, good atmosphere and I think not too expensive for what you get. The set menu was €44 for three courses, the starter was excellent, the asparagus with shaves truffles on top I would highly recommend! P.S. rumor has it this is where Obama and Sarkozy had dinner when they were in town.

I have been a HUGE fan of this chef for over 20 years dating back to his place in Mougins, which no longer exists. Well, thank God I found him again. The décor is very nice. Clean yet tasteful. Modern and not overdone. The service was also the best we had during our stay in Cannes. And the food was perfection. No one does risotto like this chef. Maybe Fraîche in LA, but apart from that, he's in a class by himself. For my other course, I had seared foie gras- obviously eating healthy that night. Now, here would be my one nit. And it's a small one- but it was just great. Not phenomenal. Primarily because it didn't have an inventive preparation. But it is still foie gras, after all, so I can only complain so much. And last but not least a Grand Marnier Soufflé- Which was manifique! Definitely my new favorite place in Cannes.

Best meal of our trip to Cannes. Food and wine were perfect! We did the pre-fixe meal and shared everything, not a bad dish. Timing of everything was also perfect. It was a completely packed house so make a reservation in advance. Will be back for sure.

Fabulous find! White asparagus with morel mushrooms, artichoke hearts with basil sauce, pasta with lobster and apple tart in ... oh my!! I'll dream about this place for a long time!

I was very excited to come to this restaurant unfortunately we were disappointed. The Maitre'd seemed to be in a big hurray to take our orders even after telling him we wanted to relax with a cocktail first. The service was mediocre at best and I survived having several servers posteriors thrust in my face during dinner. We split the Lobster sale ad that was excellent but the main courses both fell way short. The spicy lobster penne had minimal heat, and The Duck Breast in a Sichuan pepper sauce was an insult to any real Sichuan dish. Bland in a word! I won't be back.

For a romantic evening with superb cuisine then you must try this place. I have taken my girl here twice and had excellent service and food on both occasions. I give it 10 out of 10, Pricey but worth it, you must try.

Our best meal in Cannes. Easy walk from the main strip of Cannes. I went all in French style with champagne, Frios Gras, veal, and soufflé. The soufflé is a must regardless of how daring you are. My husband played it safe and we both loved our meals. It's cozy and crowded and we were lucky to get a table. The bath rooms are in a hilarious location. Make sure you lock the door!

the grand marnier soufle is to die for. the gravelax salmon is to die for also, although i would kindly ask the chef to use higher calibre salmon, with fewer tendons and strings. i had the prefixe menu, which gave a good sampling of the chef's offerrings. you cant beat this place, and everyone speaks english too. clearly this place loves americans and brits. the dining room features a big window where you can observe the kitchen crew in action. so now their gravalax recepie is no longer a secret.

Service was excellent. Food and wine were very good. The soufflé was beautiful and very tasty (if you like soufflés).
