"In this location, surrounded as it is with large restaurants spilling out onto the pavement with their me-too menus of les pizzas and pâtes and overly familiar sounding meals, it is most unexpected to find a bespoke and personal restaurant offering a fine selection of dishes cooked with care. The menu, described appropriately as the 'carte du moment' presents a mercifully small number of seasonal and therefore changing entrées, plats and desserts. However, it is still hard to choose. Each one is enticing, interesting and original with the promise of flavours, combinations of ingredients and textures, without tricks and unnecessary embellishment. For a large number, a selection of all the entrées as share dishes makes a lot of sense. Everyone gets a taste of something and the difficulty of having to choose is avoided. For the plats, a single selection is best with pork, duck, tuna and salmon along with risotto as options on the night we were there. A fine burger also available is perhaps a concession to the location and, actually, a very fine dish. Four desserts are offered with each one tempting and beautifully prepared. Another selection for the table is highly recommended. The wine list is adequate and the ambiance works for lone dining as well as for a larger and more raucous group. The service is smiling and efficient as well as courteous. This is a place to make a favourite. The risk to this reviewer is that it will become deservedly highly popular and impossible for last minute bookings."

"Remarkably satisfied, the aged meat in addition to being delicious was very well advised according to the tastes of each. Not to mention all other dishes, ice creams... made on site, never eaten before so good!!!! The spectacular service, kindness and professionalism, they know languages and speak perfectly French, Italian and English. Price quality price very correct. I hope to see you soon, and continue like that because you're fine. (Original view) Rimasti notevolmente soddisfatti, la carne frollata oltre ad essere squisita è stata molto ben consigliata in base ai gusti di ognuno. Per non parlare di tutti gli altri piatti , il gelato ...fatto sul momento , mai mangiato prima così buono!!!!Il servizio spettacolare , gentilezza e professionalità, conoscono le lingue e parlano perfettamente francese italiano e inglese . Prezzo qualità prezzo giustissimo. Spero a presto , e continuate così perché andate alla grande."

"We chose Cafe Brun after reading reviews on TA and because it was close to our hotel. The street it is on is a small side street with not much atmosphere. We were somewhat underwhelmed by the food served to us. We shared a goats cheese salad to start which was ok but nothing special. A piece of goats cheese sitting on leaves and walnuts with not much flavour in the dressing. My husband had the lamb shank served with nice dauphinoise potatos. I had the fish special which was a nicely cooked piece of cod but it lacked flavour and the salad/veg it was served with was bitter and sour tasting. A nice sauce is needed with this dish. The mash potato was the best thing about it. Finding it difficult to understand how of all the restaurants in Cannes this is no 1 on TA."

"Very good discovery of Ivorian cuisine (we didn't know). The card is limited (it is also the guarantee of fresh preparation) but quite varied for all tastes. The hibiscus ginger cocktail is a must. The 2 sisters are very welcoming, one in service to the other in the kitchen. A little far from the city centre and a street that passes, but it is worth visiting if you are looking for an original, tasteful and reasonable meal. Thank you both.

"Nous sommes venus plusieurs fois au "Pistou" et la cuisine est toujours à la hauteur ( fraîcheur des produits, présentation originale et soignée ). Mais le service vient nettement ternir le repas: la serveuse "Mona" se montre particulièrement odieuse, servant le client avec dédain sans aucun sourire, ni parole. Il faudrait, de plus qu'elle apprenne à dire "bonjour, au revoir et merci "! La restauration fonctionne sur le relationnel avec le client et il serait bien préférable qu'elle fasse un autre métier !! On revient au "Pistou" pour la qualité de la cuisine mais on serait bien tenté d'aller voir ailleurs, en particulier dans le restaurant d'à côté où la serveuse est avenante et souriante.."
