To top it off, the desserts were awesome too- we tried the cannoli and tiramisu. The staff was very nice and the owner spoke good English and made sure our order gotten taken correctly by the waitress who may not have understood our attempts at ordering in French ; ) If you can, make a reservation as it seems to be a popular place and it can fill up fast. The fact that the restaurant is a part of the "slow food movement" made me worry it was going to take awhile to get our food, but it didn't seem to take much longer than most other places we'd been to in France. Slower than the US, but seemed pretty average for a European restaurant.

We stumbled upon Chez Nine after walking and enjoying the ambience of old town Aix, and we were grateful to be seated without a reservation. We ordered an aperitif (which we unfortunately did not receive, hence the 4 star rating) and received a complimentary sardine spread and small crackers. Tasty. We ordered a nice bottle of blended red that was recommended by the owner. My fiancé ordered the chèvre ravioli which was heaven on a plate. A rich, creamy, and cheesy blending of flavors and topped with fantastic prosciutto. If you want rich and decadent, look no further. I ordered a tagliatelle with chicken and a wonderful almond and cream sauce. There were small raisins in it that added a pop of sweetness in the richness of the cream sauce. Delightful. The dishes were fairly large, so we didn't end up ordering dessert. Highly recommended.

We got through two starters and mains but had no room left for dessert (if we are not counting liquers). The curry pasta (with apple) and the Notre Specialite were absolutely fantastic. We are half way through our two week honeymoon and this is the best meal we've had so far, bar none. If you are unsure of this location give this one a try. It happens to be one of the most well established restaurants in the area and culinary expertise/abience/servers make this a one of a kind.

Time to food: 13 minutes Arrived at around 9:20PM and was seated at the bar. I went totally with the chef's recommendation. I had a lovely Domaine Combier - Crozes-Hermitage Cuvée Laurent rouge 2024, the Piadina with coppa de parme, parmesan, and red peppers, and a biscoff tiramisu with an espresso to wash it down. Total was 17.5 euro. Honestly, I wish I had found this spot earlier! I ate at several "nice" spots around town during the week. The Piadina here was leagues above the pizza at La Rotunde at half the price. Everyone was polite and friendly. They even do a student discount. It's an amazing quaint little spot.

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.
