La Piazza Restaurant in Cannes, all the delights of Italy ! La Piazza Restaurant is just moments from City Hall, at the foot of Suquet, Cannes’ old town on the hill. For more than 20 years, it has taken pride in cooking with an authentic Italian flavor. When you arrive, you’ll be warmly greeted by Harold, the Restaurant Manager, and Nelson, his number two. Immediately, you’ll find yourself in a restaurant that puts the accent on transalpine tradition: red tablecloths, solid wood furniture, a family atmosphere…
