We enjoyed our dinner greatly and can highly recommend the namesake entrée. The mains were a good size and excellent and allowed for a delightful desert. We would recommend this restaurant.

Visited the restaurant on a friends recommendation - a pleasant experience in general. The service and atmosphere were very nice. The starter was very delicious, main course was just OK food. But we enjoyed the evening.

We chose this restaurant after wandering through the back streets of Aix checking out the 'formules du midi'. At around 17 euros for 3 courses including a glass of wine - it looked good value and it was! We had aubergine tart followed by fish with a delicious sauce and cafe gourmand for dessert. Service was charming, ambiance relaxed, wine... More

Last Saturday Feb 17th 2013, at 8pm many restaurants were full and had waiting lists of 20 min. We strolled through the city and found this one. Of course we were suspicious: why would this one less demanded than the others? The atmosphere is cosy and modern at the same time. A few items on the menu were sold out,... More

We were looking for somewhere for a not too heavy lunch and liked the look of the menu. We both started with the tomato tarte tatin and followed this with lamb shanks. Both courses were relatively simple but well cooked, tender and tasty. Pleasant, unobtrusive service and a bottle of good local wine. Excellent value.

Nice little bistro with a good ambiance, staff friendly, good service. First course was delicious, but the salmon special we ordered as a main was extremely overlooked and dried out. We could only manage a couple bites and told the the waiter after he asked us if we didn't like it. We were given a free dessert which was nice,... More

Our hotel made reservations for us and highly recommended this restaurant. The service was slow, inattentive and the food was very disappointing. The "fish of the day" was not fresh at all and nearly inedible. The desserts, which had to be ordered with your meal, were obviously pre-prepared and served to us directly from a refrigerator.

Is that hospitality ? Coming to the food nothing... More
