This is a hidden gem in the little town of Saignon, perched high above Apt. Walk through town past…read morethe fountain. On your way to the ruins at the top are signs to this delightful restaurant run by Georges et Christiane. Their collaboration is brilliant- tasty, well-presented Provençal food with lots of extras. They accommodated my husband's gluten allergy, in my broken French. Lunch was reasonable @ $17 € pp plus wine & coffee. I have included photos. They started with a mash pea amousé-bouche then a choice of 3 plats. My hubby had beef skewers and I had the tournade de cochon (pork). We ended with a lemon tarte for me and a fromage-fruits simple but delicious dessert for my hubby. The surprise- an aperitif of rose water with a poppy-honey glacé. All locally sourced and farm to table. George's presented me with a rose. Coffee came with some petit-fours featuring pistachio, almond a handmade marshmallow and un petite beignets (jam donut). I highly recommend a stop in this town and make sure to dine inside or on the patio.

Nice place next to roundabout. Good and large outside terrace. Seats at least 70…read more Food is good. Had one of the better Angus beef in France here. Friendly service. Best in region! And good sanitair protocol. Recommended.

Let me establish a context for this review. We have eaten at some of the best restaurants in France…read more(e.g., Jamin, L'Esperance) as well as North America (e.g., The Maisonette, Charley Trotter's, Truffle, Silk). We do not think of ourselves as food snobs BUT we do appreciate quality ingredients that are carefully prepared. Now for our story. We arrived in Provence the evening of October 2, 2019 tired and hungry. We found this restaurant and the menu looked intriguing. Not many items (4-5 appetizers, 4-5 main courses, 4-5 desserts). We decided to give it a try, knowing that posted menu items can be delightful or mundane, depending on the care and quality of the chef. It would be an understatement to say that we were blown away. We were so impressed that we made reservations to return on October 8 to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. The meal, yet again, was absolutely incredible. We ordered a more expensive tasting menu as we wanted a cheese course. We thought that meant choosing one of the options on the menu. However, that was not the case. The chef-owner asked if we had any food allergies or aversions and then went back and prepared food that was not on the menu. Including a couple of courses above and beyond the tasting menu we ordered. In two nights, we had nine courses. Each course was lovingly prepared with fresh, high quality ingredients. While I cannot single out a course that was head and shoulders above the others, that is because all of them were exquisite. Personally, I loved the smoked salmon appetizer as well as the zucchini palate teaser. A special dessert cake for our second trip also was to die for. In my opinion, while the menu options are small, the quality of the preparation makes this place a very affordable alternative to some of the best restaurants we have ever been to. Should we find ourselves back in Apt, we definitely will dine there again.

My family and I traveled to France for one month and just happened to come across this restaurant…read moreduring lunch time. Instantly we became big fans... so much we ended up coming in three to four time a week. The menu happens to be set, however, David, the owner, will accommodate to whatever your needs may be. This was incredible as we had our three children with us!! (Yes this place is very kid friendly) The wine selection is fabulous and they do have a full bar! Overall our experience was amazing and we will definitely be going back when we return next Summer! Thank you to David and Bruno, the chef, for making our dining exposure wonderful during our stay in France!!!
