We walked around and around, but because it was February, some restaurants were closed because it was not tourist season. After walking past Le Chaudron twice already, the third time I looked down and saw a light on, and realized, "Hey, that's a restaurant down there in that cave place!" Ok, I don't think it's LITERALLY in a cave, but maybe it is. It's set downstairs and the walls are made of old stone, and of course, it's in a very old building as is all of old Antibes. I ordered a fantastical pasta dish while my husband ordered a seafood dish. Not only was the food tasty, but what really put this place over the edge was the service. We are not fluent in French, but my husband speaks a little. The owner of the restaurant spoke very little English. She was just so gracious in trying to listen to my husband attempt French, and the three of us really tried hard to communicate which actually made for an interesting and enjoyable time. She understood our dietary needs and was trying really hard to make sure certain ingredients would be ok for us. We ate vegetarian on this trip, with my husband adding in seafood here and there, so it wasn't tough at all. I really loved how cozy this place was. While the menu (although all in French) was good with a nice variety, and the food quality and taste was excellent, the service really put this over the edge for both of us!

In front of our guests, this was a very uncomfortable situation. The waiter refused to acknowledge that service is included and that gratuity in France is based on appreciation and not "begged" for by an agressive waiter. This type of situation leaves a very bad impression, not only of the particular establishment, but of France in general. This is why we cannot recommend this restaurant. Partageant notre table avec des amies américaines, notre repas fut gâché par le serveur au moment de régler l'addition: en insistant de façon agressive, il nous a obligés d'ajouter un pourboire. C'était une situation très embarrassante et décevante. Il ne voulait pas admettre que le service est compris en France et que le pourboire se mérite et ne se réclame pas. C'est ce genre de situation qui donne une mauvaise réputation à la France et aux Français. Le serveur mérite d'être renvoyé. Ce serait encore pire si c'était la politique de la maison! Pour cette raison, cet établissement est un "piège à touristes" et à éviter.

The 2 of us had their pre fixe menu for dinner last night, which at EUR49 is a screaming bargain. Their degustation menu was slightly more, but had 6 or 7 courses on offer; with the wine option I think that came to EUR85 (no doubt, another great bargain). Overall the food, service and ambience were all great and we're happy to recommend this very attractive restaurant to any epicure / gourmand visiting Antibes. Reservations are required. We saw the hostess turn more than a few people away. The only disappointment was no dress code. I'm old fashioned. I wore white trousers, a button down shirt and a blue blazer and almost felt out of place. Most other patrons were dressed smart / casual but at least 2 guys showed up in beat up t- shirts, looking like they'd just finished a shift chipping barnacles or paint off of boat hulls; the kind of attire suitable for Burger King. In my humble opinion, Le Vauban should up their game and impose a reasonable dress code more aligned with their reputation, excellent service and gourmet cuisine.

The view of Entrevaux was beautiful, and the restaurant had the feel of a comfortable upscale local restaurant. The staff were so gracious despite us forgetting every little bit of French we knew. It's a nice place to linger too, with comfy sofas, a bookshelf of children's and adult books, and a smattering of toys to keep the little ones amused while the grown-ups relax. We loved it and would definitely come again.
