"This spruce, endearing bistro on the main square of Illies is smoothly and passionately run by former Top Chef contestant, Christophe Pirotais and his partner Julie Dieudonné. Their gutsy indulgent cuisine is unveiled in an inspired, big-boned surprise menu, illustrated by a delicate pannacotta of white asparagus with radish-flavoured ice cream or a fillet of seabream escorted by chickpea fritters and a creamy jus of smoked herring roe. The welcome is warm and cheerful and the service is as smooth as a silky bearnaise sauce. Lovely rear patio for alfresco dining in fine weather." - Michelin Inspector

The best of mom&pop features and fabulous food! Décor is spare at this point, but the host more than makes up for it with warmth, and in several languages. His wife is a true artist in the kitchen, seasoning and cooking with precision and providing creative twists that take dishes to another level. Go while you can get in, they will be slammed when word gets out.

The service was a bit slow, with our food arriving after about 45 minutes, likely due to the busy Cannes Film Festival crowd. However, the wait was worth it! The steak was perfectly cooked, the ravioli was rich and flavorful, the Caesar salad came with delicious crispy chicken, and the fish was expertly prepared. Despite the delay, the high-quality food made for a memorable dining experience.

We enjoyed an excellent dinner at L'epicurieux. Located in a vibrant area, the service was wonderful and friendly. The food was delicious! We shared the zucchini blossom fritters I had the seared tuna with gnocchi, my daughter had the bolognaise.

We enjoyed the flavors, and the presentation of the dishes, dishes have deep flavor but where not overpowering. The waiters enjoy explaining the dishes and seem very involved in your experience. The prices are very reasonable.

We had a lovely experience here! We arrived a little bit before normal dinner time, but they welcomed us in and it wasn't a problem. The owner was so kind and accommodating. He translated and explained the menu, suggested wines and checked in often. The food was delicious and fresh. There's clearly passion and experience here! Highly recommend.

We were in Cannes for a long weekend and happened across l'Epicurieux for dinner on a Friday night. We weren't familiar with the restaurant when we arrived, but after eating there and conversing with the wonderful owners, Patrick and Mélanie, we would recommend l'Epicurieux to anyone passing through Cannes. Excellent food, impressive wine selection, and amazing atmosphere. Definitely a place to return to should we happen back to Cannes.

Decent service with bland, forgettable food that leaves much to be desired. Carpaccio, Angus Beef, Foie Gras, you name it, we tried it - meh. Their drinks were ok.

My family and I didn't have a place to eat lunch in Cannes and we stumbled into this restaurant! What a pleasant surprise! The food and service was incredible! I loved the hospitality and everything was cooked perfectly! The octopus salad was absolutely delicious!

The service as L'Epicurieux was the best we experienced on our trip through France. The waiter was very friendly, fun, happily translated the specials and made excellent wine suggestions. He gets five stars. The ambience and small outdoor seating were also great - quiet but centrally located on a pedestrian walk way. The food however was more like three stars. While the truffle pasta was exceptional, the rest of the dishes were average. The pesto pasta lacked pesto, the lamb and tuna were both over cooked. Not everything was hot (perhaps because of the small kitchen and our larger group). I think we would come back to drink and hangout with the friendly staff.

I stopped in here for dinner last month and while the service was good, my food was just average. I started with the foie gras, which was bland and had a very hard texture. For my main I had the steak and frites and once again, the flavour was lacking. Once I added a heavy dose of salt it became edible, but still disappointing. Given the large number of excellent restaurants in Cannes, I would not return. Nice wine selection though if you are just needing a beverage!

The food here is unbelievably good. Me and my husband are visiting From ny, and we thought every dish served was melting in our mouths. We ordered the Camembert cheese (was sizzling and warm drizzled with honey and walnuts), the octopus salad (wow, the best octopus we ever had... so fresh) and I ordered the fish filet (seabrim I think it's called) and hubby had the veal in a champignon sauce. Highly recommend! Wow ! Will be coming back if I ever come to Cannes!

Amazing food, friendly staff. Nice outdoor seating. Try the octopus salad if it's available on special...

The waiter was simply wonderful! Helpful, informed, and accommodating. We had the duck, lamb shank, and one of the specials- all were well prepared and savory. Desert was the upside down apple pie- crust was tender and filling. Highly recommend eating here- off the beaten path of traffic, great ambiance, and the service was amazing!

We've made a reservation for 7pm here and enjoyed the food. Be aware - they dont serve food after lunch time (cheese and jambon plates only) Prices are good comparing with other places nearby (salads ~€15, main dishes ~20, wine ~€5-7/glass. Staff is super friendly and they speak English. Cod fish with bulgur and lamb with potatoes was awesome! Recommend this place with French food.

Found this by accident but we had a wonderful lunch. Salmon and toasts, truffle pasta, great baguettes, salad with pasta and pesto. Everything we tried was delicious and the staff was gracious. Great midday stop.

Ducked in out of the rain, shortly before they opened for dinner. We ordered some wine while waiting for the kitchen to open. The owner/ waiters were great. They worked seamlessly as a team. He recommend 2 consecutive great bottles of small local vineyard wines. We had a veal; fish; and a duck dish of the day and all were amazing. Great flavors and sauces. Cafe gourmand for dessert. It was absolutely packed by the time we left, granted it was day one of the boat show. Overall great experience. Price for what is served was reasonable.

I think the best part was the service, the staff was quite helpful and mobile. We had a salad with dried tomatoes, chicken and nuts and a plat du jour, which was beef flank - both above average. The (home-made I hope) french fries accompanying the beef were smoothly sweet, loved 'em. They also have a wide wine range, for te gourmands it might be appealing. It's also situated quite centrally, easy to hop on to lively streets after a filling meal.

Grabbed a salade du jour (lettuce, smoked salmon, apples, avocado) and a glass of rose for €20. Service was nice, they had wifi and the salad was pretty good too!

Nothing fancy, just good food - well prepared - friendly staff. Had the beef - cooked properly. Good wine suggestions. Watching the staff work so smoothly together with complete focus on customers was noteable.
