Loved watching the pizza be freshly made. Great food,…read moreservice was good as well. Very friendly service.

My husband and I fell in love with Chez Anna and Jo. Anna and Jo are a charming, gracious couple…read moreand Anna is a wonderful cook. We had dinner there twice and not because there aren't plenty of good options in Hyères. The first time, I had perfectly prepared and seasoned canneloni. I had stopped eating ravioli in restaurants years ago because I invariably found the pasta tasteless and doughy and the filling unable to compete with that. But because our first dinner was so delicious, I decided to give ravioli another try the second night and it was delightfully light, perfectly al dante, with a filling that was complemented by the pasta, not smothered by it. My husband's daube, a Provençal braised beef with a little bit of gravy and carrots over pasta, was sublime. It had the delicious strong presence of herbes d'Provence that is typical in the region. He ate that dish at both of our dinners there. But it's not just the food that is perfect. Jo, the host and server, is kind and gentle and pays attention to his guests and to detail. Anna, who came out of the kitchen both times we were there, possibly because we were the last diners of the evening, is also kind and gracious. We were with our toddler and, without being asked, Jo brought out cushions so she could sit higher in the chair. When I expressed concern about her possibly spilling food (tomato sauce, in particular) on the cushion, Jo quickly told me not to worry about it. And, on top of all that, the interior walls of the restaurant are covered with Jo's beautiful paintings (which, unfortunately for us, are not for sale). We highly recommend Chez Anna and Jo and look forward to returning!
