We had a light lunch here. The gazpacho was pretty plain and very small but cheap. The plat du jour was a cold beef salad that had good quality meat and reasonable salad but appalling greasy, undercooked chips. The Salad came with a sort of tartar dressing that was more of a mayonnaise but it literally melted on presentation of... More

After walking all over Avignon looking for the 'right place' to eat, my wife and I settled on Chez Francois. The pig on the sign sealed the deal. Speaking virtually no French, we had very little idea what we were ordering, so after some consultation with the waiter we settled on dishes that turned out to be DELICIOUS! Lots of... More

There's no way to go wrong at Chez Francois. This little beauty of a restaurant is tucked behind the Hotel Danelli, just behind the rue Republique. Francois himself is very passionate about his food and his wine selection. There are many inexpensive bottles that are sure to surprise you and his 2-3 course menus are full of good, classic French... More
