This is a small out-of-the-way restaurant in an off-the-main-road courtyard. It took us a little…read morebit to find it but we are so glad we did! The service was very friendly and, even though there was a slight language barrier (he spoke "some" English and we spoke "some" French), he was very patient and we had fun with it. The bread basket he brought to the table was amazing. All of the food we ordered was savory and fresh, so delicious! If you're in a little French town and you're craving Italian food, this is a great spot! :-)

The description of pizza sounded refreshing, as I was a bit tired of French cuisine at this point in my trip. I don't think a description of pizza does Le Monge justice, as the restaurant is much nicer than simply pizza, and they have lots of other options to try as well (including traditional French). For dinner I selected a small side salad and the campagna pizza which was delicious! It was larger than a lot of the portions I had seen in France before, and certainly large enough to share between two people. It had several kinds of cheese along with prosciutto. The combination of cheeses makes the pizza quite rich and creamy. My husband had the menu selection (which came with an appetizer of 6 escargot, beef bourguignon, and fruits for dessert). He enjoyed his selection as well. I would definitely stop in Le Monge for a meal and expect friendly servers, quick service and great food.
