We happened into this little place on a chilly evening in August, hoping they would have a table…read morefor us as we did not have a reservation, and it was simply too cold and damp to eat outside. The place was fairly empty on arrival, but we know how quickly that can change, and how the French very much prefer reservations. The hostess was lovely, and gave us a choice of several little tables in a small cavern in the back. Charming. And sure enough, by the time our food arrived, all the inhabitants of the village of Barjac had arrived as well. The place was packed! For good reason. I had the Ardechoise pizza, which was generous (read: also the next day's lunch) and very tasty featuring the local cuisine. Carol had the salad with chevre chaud. Also generous and well seasoned. Along with a pichet of vin rouge, and we were out the door for around 30 euros, and very happy.

As did the table of two right beside us for the very same reason. I do understand it's the rule of restaurant and that is not my issue. It's the absolute rudeness and dismissiveness of the proprietress that earned the 2 stars.

Every tiny supplement is charged separately, even though the base price is already absurd. The pasta bolognese was a joke -- dry, bland, and absolutely not worth the €23 they dare to ask for it. The wine was extremely basic, yet they charge €22 for a simple carafe. Service was unfriendly and uninterested. We clearly said we weren't satisfied, and they didn't even bother to ask why. The only thing that seems to matter here is putting something on a plate and cashing in. Never again.

So we made up our minds that we would "get what we get and not throw a fit." When we ordered we told the owner what we would like on our piadinas. He made one to our specifications, but then also made us one with the ingredients that he recommended. His was far superior, so if you go, just let him choose what you're getting! He and his wife really knew their stuff. The ingredients were fresh and delicious and the wine was fabulous. The whole experience was just... fun!! The restaurant was small and cozy, and the owner was so gracious and patient with us given that we didn't speak his language. I highly recommend this restaurant and we will definitely go back if we are ever in that area again.

We totally enjoyed the food. Indeed I would have given 5 stars except that I woke with a splitting headache in the night, and thus I suspect the restaurant uses MSG on their food, which would account for the fantastic flavors. But this is precisely how my body reacts to MSG. If you are unaffected by MSG, you would probably love the food here. Had I not ended up with the headache, we would have returned another evening because the duck was wonderful and the lamb was also outstanding. The Shitake tart was equally delicious and my husband very much enjoyed his lemon dessert.
