Mantel Restaurant sur Cannes

This has to be THE best meal we’ve had, ever. A seven course meal designed by the genius Noel Mantel to celebrate 24 years of marriage was out of this world. The sommelier chose the perfect wine to accompany each course - the service was top class, the welcome felt like we were part of the family. I just wish Google would allow 6 stars…

A star of Cannes. Exceptional cooking, amazing service, this restaurant always shines!

Heaven on a plate! Or actually, heaven on multiple plates! The food is artistic and delicious, the kind of cooking where everything feels original and considered, yet every bite actually tastes amazing rather than just looking pretty on the plate. It had that same spirit we loved in Copenhagen, inventive without ever tipping into pretentious. One of our favourite meals in Cannes - the lobster ravioli was our of this world, and Belen (the lady who served us), was a delight. We came to it after eating at U-V-A (it's sister restaurant - also heavenly), and well worth booking ahead, because a place this good fills up. I'm still dreaming about their food!

The food is delicious, the restaurant is beautifully decorated, but the acoustics are problematic and… it was hot.

From the moment I arrived, the wine program stood out. The sommelier’s recommendation paired beautifully with the meal, and our conversation revealed both the restaurant’s story and the chef’s impressive background in Michelin-starred kitchens—a pedigree reflected in the precision and care evident throughout the menu. The lobster ravioli is a highlight, showcasing exceptionally fresh lobster and the quality of the ingredients. Equally memorable is the baby lamb, remarkably tender and delicate, with a refined flavor that avoids the stronger notes often associated with lamb. Tucked away on a charming side street in Le Suquet, the restaurant offers a warm, relaxed atmosphere. Combined with outstanding cuisine, thoughtful wine pairings, and a team whose passion is unmistakable, it delivers a consistently rewarding dining experience. What began as a first visit has become one of my favorite hidden gems in Cannes. Whenever friends visit, this is one of the places I like to bring them, and it has never failed to impress. Great food, great wine, and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere keep us coming back.

A great place, exquisite dishes, good service. We had dinner and ordered lamb, meat and crab ravioli, foie gras appetizers, and three different desserts – everything was delicious. I highly recommend it. We'll be back ☺️

Outstanding food in a lovely part of Cannes. Would highly recommend

Five stars. Three of us, Saturday evening in late May. Eight tables. Noël Mantel in the kitchen, not a corporate brigade.- the chef-owner model that the south of France does better than anywhere when it is done right. We walked up from the port through Le Suquet, which is the correct way to arrive. The room is intimate without pretension. The market menu that evening was built on what came through Forville that morning, and you could taste the proximity. The pieds-paquets niçois revisités were precise and generous at the same time - a dish that knows where it comes from. The soufflé chaud à la chartreuse closed the evening the way a serious kitchen should: with restraint and timing. Wine service was attentive and unhurried; we asked for guidance and were guided, not lectured. What sets Table 22 apart is proportion. Eight tables means the chef controls every plate. Market-driven means the menu earns its right to exist each morning. Rue Saint-Antoine in Le Suquet means you are eating in the old Cannes, not performing on La Croisette. This is the distinction. We came on recommendation. We left understanding why.

Excellent food!! Wonderful service! The sommelier was extremely knowledgeable and picked my wine perfectly based on the preferences I described

Very nice food. Very welcoming service Not so good location though
