Definitely worth the hype! I stopped by on a Tuesday night in October and was able to get a table for 1 right away. I knew I just wanted pizza so I didn't peruse the menu too much but the pastas also look good here! I ended up ordering the 4 cheese pizza. It was soaking w cheese (just how I like it). It was definitely too much for 1 person (unless you're very hungry:)) so I took part of it home with me. Great pizza in a fun setting! read more

La Pizza Cresci - 4 cheese pizza - Italian Near Me - Cannes, 06

Fantastic fresh food, like they pulled it out of the ocean just to put it on my plate. We got there early, 6pm, didn't wait, sat right down. Got some beer and a limoncello spritz and ordered the Fruits d' mere with Tagliollini. Food was on the table waiting 10 minutes. Great people watching in an open air or inside seating environment. Loaded, absolutely loaded with fresh awesome seafood. Reasonably priced for its location, huge portions and waiters that are efficient if not chatty!! Loved it. Try it. You're welcome. read more

Good location, friendly staff, has the historical vibe inside of an older, classier Cannes. Pizzas were okay, good crust, but too much cheese for my liking - serviceable. The moules mariniere however were excellent - a good heaping portion served along with chips. Beer was cold and crisp. Good lunch spot for the cruise-based tourists but more adventurous eaters will be better served elsewhere. read more

After 5 hour train ride from Paris to Cannes my daughter and I checked into our hotel and they suggested several places for lunch including La Piazza Cresci. So glad we chose this restaurant seated quickly. Greeted my our waiter Thomas who was wonderful share pizza and Caesar salad so good! read more

Stopped here when on vacation because the menu seemed reasonable and the place was packed. We immediately noticed the giant half pizzas sitting in front of other diners, figuring out that their typical pizza is served as a half pizza. My counterparts all ordered pizza. They all looked great. The piece I tried was good, especially the crust, but it was a bit greasy. I got the lasagna. It seemed to have been made with some sort of spinach pasta (didn't affect the taste at all). Overall it was decent, but didn't quite have the distinct layers like a typical lasagna does. Also seemed to be lacking the traditional ricotta cheese. Plenty of menu options though, and portions were huge. Most diners seemed pleased with taste and portions big enough to take home or share. read more

La Pizza Cresci - Lasagna - Italian Near Me - Cannes, 06

This was a girls night out for everyone's favorite meal.. pizza! The food was superb but the waiter was surly which made for a few uncomfortable moments. One guest sent her pie back for being underdone and it was returned in perfect condition. All of us enjoyed the wonderful old style interior at a fabulous private table in the corner where we laughed, ate and left happy. read more

La Pizza Cresci - Italian Near Me - Cannes, 06

The best meal I have every trip to Cannes. I come to town 3 times a year and always have my first and last meal at La Pizza. This is the best pizza I've ever had. If there's something better out there, I want to know about it! The service is always great and friendly too! You're doing yourself a big disservice if you come to Cannes and don't eat here. Trust me. read more

It's tradition for entrainment industry to eat at La Pizza on your first night in Cannes and I been doing this for 25plus years, the food is quality and fair and it's just feels good to me because of my many years of eating and visiting Cannes read more

They were amazing for years, but now? Not so much, and what a sad end to a famous, formerly hot restaurant. We go to Cannes about every other summer, and this past August, took two Cannes first-timers here. We ordered four different half moon pizzas and all of them arrive looking like they had been sitting around for an hour: barely hot, cheese was thick and solid, dough was tough, very hard to cut and required a LOT of hard pressure sawing. (Their knives are all dull as spoons from decades of use.) Why would our pizza seems so "stale" when there are men literally making pizza next to a woodburning oven nonstop in the front, for all to see? Weird. There are literally dozens of restaurants that have better pizza now. Try them all and find your favorite. This location is done. read more

The best pizza in the world! I don't understand why it doesn't have five stars - okay, maybe it's the long wait because it's always full and waiters aren't the best but I've eaten pizza everywhere in the world and nothing compares to La Pizza - the taste, texture and sauce is nothing you've ever eaten. My best friend and I actually went on a mission and ate at every pizza place along the Croisette and nothing came close. French pizza is great especially because of the cheese, but La Pizza is amazing and in its own category. Fun fact, this is where Quentin Tarantino likes to eat as well. read more

This place hit all our expectations that we went 2 nights in a row. We wanted good Italian, homemade pasta and to die for pizza...this was it! Pros: *Great for kids *Variety of menu items: Popular items: To order Pizza * Homemade pasta....Ravioli Bolognese was so good my kid ate it all. * Good prices * Order Take out Cons: *We don't have one close to us! *Long wait. There isn't a waitlist so you stand in line and wait for a table. Go early or go late! *Tight space but again, this is France read more

Right down at the waters edge, near the cannes palais du festival and I'm thinking... "this is going to be expensive", the place is busy and the staff are bustling about like they are going to be waaaay too busy to talk to any new customers. On wifeys insistence we persevered (she knew the place of old) and we were surprisingly quickly seated and settled. The menu is big but full of all sorts of good pizzas and fish, service was fast and efficient. Myself and junior had pizza - they were HUGE and tasty and with enough left overs (which were duly boxed upon departure) to tide us over in the evening. Wifey had a fish and potato dish that was likewise voluminous and tasty. Don't let the chaos put you off, it was good value for money and what a way to pass part of the afternoon, people watching as you munch away on some very good foods! read more

La Pizza Cresci - Italian Near Me - Cannes, 06

Stopped in for pizza to go for lunch so that I could go back to my hotel and work in my room. The pizzas they turn out here all look fabulous. Unfortunately the menu is entirely in French so I just went with the margarita pizza as I couldn't make out the rest of the toppings. (And I really didn't want to stand there googling all of the translations). The pizza to go was 11.90€ and it is actually a half of a large pizza (like 4 slices of NY pizza). It was very crisp and delicious. I do believe a mixture of cheese was used - not just mozzarella but I couldn't make out the other cheese(s) - but very tasty. The service was polite and prompt and the pizza maker very personable. Nice affordable pizza spot in Cannes directly across from the harbor in walking distance to the Radisson Blu hotel and Palais. read more

La Pizza Cresci - Italian Near Me - Cannes, 06

Best. Pizza. Ever. Specifically the pepperoni and cheese pizza. Amazing. We ended up getting it every night we were in Cannes. The only downfall was the crazy long lines around dinner time. I will dream of this pizza forever. read more

Big pizza fan from the United States and this was one of the best pizzas I have ever had. The pepperoni slices were thick, juicy, and delicious. The half pizza concept was perfect because I couldn't eat a whole pizza but certainly more than one slice. Cheese, bread, light on the red sauce, tad oily...truly regret only going to this place on my trip. read more

La Pizza Cresci - Pepperoni Pizza (thick slices of spicy sausage) - Italian Near Me - Cannes, 06

I rarely ever give a 5 star review but this is the best pizza I have ever had. Every year in Cannes this is a must hit spot two or three time in a week. It looks touristy and it is always packed and after one bite of their pizza you taste why. Simply the best pizza period. I would recommend the onion pizza as a personal fav. They also have great service. Waiters are very nice, fun, and attentive. Pizza is on your plate less than 10 min from order. Visit Cannes annually from the States and this is my top pick. read more

La Pizza Cresci - Seriously?!?! - Italian Near Me - Cannes, 06

The place is busy but you get seated right away and the food was great,we were there with the family and everyone enjoyed and my wife is a rough food critic if she likes it so will you. read more

I've been visiting Cannes for the past 12 years, (business) three times a year. This is the place I go to for my arrival dinner and it puts me in a blissful pizza induced coma within 2 hours of eating. I only get the pizza, and only the pizza margherita. I've had slices of others, but this is my go-to. Service is wonderful - they're French, so don't take the side glances and light mockery as an insult; it means you're family. There are French and English menus & you just need to ask. When it's busy, expect a bit of a wait, but it will be worth it. I tried a few other menu items, but to be honest, wasn't impressed, but to be fair, it's not the establishment's specialty, and pizza is. If you want Italian, there are plenty of other options in town. read more

La Pizza Cresci - Pizza Margherita. Heaven on a plate. - Italian Near Me - Cannes, 06

I'm giving them a five for pizza and pasta considering the location and relative value. We were here during the Cannes film festival. The pizza is thin-crust wood-oven pizza and it was excellent. The pasta was cooked al-dente with Calamari with a nice light tomato and olive oil. They brought spicy olive oil in addition. We had coffee afterwards and that was excellent too. 15 Euro for pasta and 12 or more for pizza was an amazing price for the area. Location is across the sea with a nice breeze if you sir outside. Cannot complain about anything. The service was friendly and they spoke English although I like to practice my French! read more

excellent pizzas at really reasonable prices - 3 of us ordered different kinds of pizza, I ordered seafood spaghetti - sweetly surprised by it being only 24euros-- had 2 big giant prawns and generous serving of calamari, clams and mussels the pizzas were yummy - of course I took a bit off everyone's :) - they took a bite off mine and we still didn't finish my pasta. desert was a shared apple pie slice,..for which i had to find room! :) sat outside - more fun! read more

Worst food ever . All of my friend got sick and the food is definitely tasteless. All of the food is bad quality read more

We were visiting Cannes as one of our cruise destinations and one of the locals recommended this place. We initially wanted to try French cuisine, since we were in France but decided to go with the recommendation. We were not disappointed. We ordered pizza and a pasta dish to share, which ended up being a wise decision as portions were huge! The pizza was so good... we chose a combo of meat and mushroom, and the crust was just the right thickness. The pasta was equally as good and the noodles were perfectly cooked. Even with wine we paid much less than we would have back in the states. They also had free WiFi that was reasonably fast. This was one of the highlights of our visit. read more

I'm a native New Yorker, I've been to Cannes the last two years. La Pizza is seriously some of the best pizza I've ever had, and definitely the best pizza I've had outside NY. I legitimately miss this pizza all the time. 4.5/5 read more

*aka La Pizza Cresci* -- why are there two accounts for this place? Again, Not really sure what all this "best pizza of life" is about -- the dough is bland and the amount of cheese is heart attack-inducing. The waitstaff can be a hit or miss -- some were respectful enough, one guy was a real jerk. Would not come back as I did not pay this much to come here, eat meh food and be treated like a nuisance. Make sure you also Tripadvisor any place in Cannes before you go, you deserve better! read more

This place is a little expensive. But other than that, the pizza was delicious. They use some kind of French cheese and it rocked. CHEESY - like triple cheese on the Margherita. The mussels were a huge portion. They were tiny each mussel shell but the actual meat was surprisingly large. read more

A Busy restaurant would normally indicate somewhat that it is a good restaurant. But here not. Busy overworked stressed staff serve you greasy American size pizzas swimming within cheese. Seems more to be quantity over quality, for cheap. If that's what you're after in a meal then go for it. But me, if I'm going to spend my euros I prefer better food and ambiance. I feel I might have been unduly harsh, for it does seem to be good for families with kids. read more

We had excellent vegetarian pizza called Aubergines with eggplant, parsley, tomatoes, cheese, garlic, oregano. They were served as half a pizza and ours cost €13.50 for half a pizza. In the winter it is highly visited by locals. read more

When you have had an ass full of seven course Michelin rosette tasting menus, La Pizza is a great break. Simple crescent pies with plenty of outdoor seating all served up on the edge of Cannes' harbor. read more

3.5 stars. Best Marguerite pizza ever!! Caprese salad was ok. The fries were light, crispy and tasty. Done well! Service is particular about seating, even if the restaurant is empty. Would definitely go back for pizza. read more

Ignore the bad reviews. I'm a total Trip Advisor snob and came here with some colleagues very skeptical. It was amazing!!! Yes, the service is slow... You're in FRANCE - I haven't had great service anywhere except Joel Robuchon in Monte Carlo. Our waiter was kind, split a check six ways God bless him and food was quick. The pepperoni pizza is insane!!! Also - the coconut and cassis sorbets are a dream. Next to my Michellin meals, this is my main return restaurant next year. read more

The second best pizza we had during our south Italy-France cote d'azur vacation. The pizzas are really large in portion, if you are not really hungry even two person can share one. The toppings are generously used and fresh/well chosen. So I definitely will recommend La Pizza to eat good Pizza! read more

Pizza is cheap, big enough and good. The Pasta are very good. Don't know about the steak because we don't ordered. If you like or are used with Italians from the Sicily this place is something pretty close as feeling. Good staff, English speaking, they are pragmatic and can seem to be rude if you expect to be treated like with a lot niceties and patience. Busy place and overall atmosphere. Good place! read more

My daughter and friends went to eat here and service was atrocious and desserts arrived frozen. Yes that warm apple pie was not. Avoid it. They don't deserve your custom read more

This is about an honest review as I can possibly do. The wait time was fair...10 minutes. However, with some open tables we were seated on top of another table. Food was excellent, but wait time to get a server was rough. We witnessed a table get up and leave because they Were so slow. Worth visiting. read more

As you can see from a bunch of complaints, they're able to charge full price for half pizzas! And there's a huge line to get in! What do you think that says about the pizza? read more

If you're looking for a good pizza in Cannes, you could do far worse than eating at La Pizza. My wife and I had dinner there last night and we were very happy with our choices: She ordered the pizza a l'aubergine (eggplant pizza) while I opted for the four cheese pizza. We both agreed mine was better, but hers was also excellent. We accompanied our meal with a nice bottle of Domaine Ott red wine. Service was good despite the fact that they were slammed, it being the Cannes film festival right now. read more

La Pizzaaaaaaa! Love it. The service was terrible and the food overpriced, but the pizza was delicious and the feel was so homey and lovely.

Definite 3.5 stars. The pies were good, albeit a bit oily, and yes they are particular about the seating in an empty restaurant... Also did an OK job with the kids. read more

Just awful. Bad service. I had to chase down the waiter just to get a menu. I had the eggplant pizza and it was tasteless. The sauce had no love. It was bland with a water down texture. read more

Fast service and best pizza in town. The place is huge and it's easy to get a seat any time of the day or year. They serve half a pizza which will fill you for a whole year. Absolutely fabulous every time!! read more
