TheForkUserEverything about it was memorable I started with a L'Americano aperitif. Had the bone marrow with lentil salad and pike dumpling with mixed vegetables. The bone marrow was very sweet, tender and delicious, far different from what we have access to in the US. Lentil salad is something I've come to appreciate on this visit to France. The sauce with the pike dumpling was very savory. I used bits of bread to soak it up and ate them with a fork. A glass of house white wine that came with a very generous pour. Then came the Baba Rhum with a side of whipped cream and thin-sliced toasted almonds. I was even brought a massive decanter of house spiced rum in case I wanted to add more to the dessert. Classic and classy. This is a very good, exceptional restaurant that lives up to its high rating on a service like Google Maps (how I discovered it).

TheForkUserThis was one of the finest meals I had during my week in Avignon. More casual and relaxed than the other top two places. Great for families, inexpensive and servings to satisfy the biggest eaters. The owner actively involved with every guest party. A French proprietor fascinated by Italian cuisine. Cannot recommend this restaurant enough.

TheForkUserVery nice experience sampling different kinds of food, but the “as much as you can eat” style is not value for money for someone who cannot eat a lot at the time and the food at a buffet is never really hot enough. Nevertheless spent a very nice evening with friends as the service is great!

TheForkUserVery slow service. We ordered a bottle of sparkling water at the beginning of lunch, they brought it to us when we had already asked for the check. Some orders had to be repeated 3-5 times; you got the feeling that the staff was simply not listening to you. The child's ice cream stood ready on the kitchen counter for more than 10 minutes (we sat nearby and saw that the chef had already prepared desserts, and the waiters walked by many times and did not take them to the customers). The chef even had to renew the whipped cream on the desserts.

TheForkUserWe looked at the menu online and had picked out two items which attracted us to the restaurant ( anchovy starter and duck main dish). Unfortunately both of the items were gone from the menu at the restaurant. We 0rdered the sliced beef on arugula, and although tasty, the meat was a bit tough in spots. But overall, a nice re staurant.

TheForkUserVery fine restaurant. Great setting, lovely view, tasteful modern interior. Ask for window seat if possible. Food was delicious. Well constructed courses, intentional flavours, clear devotion to representing seasonal and regional ingredients. Flow of dishes was seamless without losing the uniqueness of each one. Service was outstanding. The waitstaff is easily at 2 star level, and paid attention to details which usually only exist at the 3 star level. Overall, this restaurant is well deserving of its recent accolades, and is outperforming at the current price point. Do not hesitate to book if possible.

TheForkUserSuper nice place, The staff is friendly and welcoming, the food is really really good and the prices more then fair. The waiting time is a bit longer but not unbearably so. You absolutely have to try it out but leave it for a night when you have nowhere else to be. Overall very pleasant experience, we'll certainly come back to try out other dishes
