    Unfortunately, none of the five dishes were especially good. I have problems understanding why this restaurant has one star in the Guide Michelin. The service was good, the wines were excellent but again, the food I could have made better myself and I am not a professional chef. Really not worth the money.

    A fantastic chef made beautiful and very tasty dishes. The stuff is very friendly and professional. The wine list is endless. The only "problem" is that the menu is tight so we couldn't come a day after. The variety is limited but for us it was 10/10

    An amazing, high quality restaurant in the heart of town. Service and presentation was immaculate but one medallion of beef for the main was light! Would thoroughly recommend

    Good but could be better. The food was tasty but too often simple. Both red and white Châteuneuf wines by the glass were not very impressive. The wait staff constantly bothered us by inquiring how the meal was. Finally, most unprofessional, we were told service was included, but when I went to pay, the waiter stood there asking me to click on a tip of 9%, 12% etc., and I felt pressured to click one.of the boxes. We decided not to return.

    The staff were phenomenal. Charles especially made our dinner wonderful. He took the time to talk to us about our visit to France and explained the food. The sommelier was also really knowledgeable and kind. The food was outstanding, especially loved the cheese course.

    Very 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.

    Made of very fresh local ingredients, the food was very well cooked and presented - best of all, not overly innovative, and superbly scrumptious! While there are only set menus for dinner, quite a number of the dishes from the set menus can actually be ordered as à la carte, if one is for any reason not prepared to have a big dinner in any given evening. Even better, it is not particularly uptight for a Michelin one-star restaurant, and is suitably relaxing and enjoyable in the wine region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The sommelier, of Mauritius origin, is extremely amiable and knowledgeable, and conversations with him are simply pleasurable.

    The food was good: some of the dishes were inventive/creative but did not quite land. Incredible wine, incredible service and hospitality. You can’t beat the view! I will cherish our memories of this meal for the rest of my life.

    Started off well; but we were soon the only table still sitting outside and all other tables had been moved indoors or provided a table umbrella. We were left to be rained on and it ruined our wine, food and experience.

    We are from California and have traveled the world for the best food. This ranks at the top. Exceptional Fresh dishes that were unique and beautiful. The service was also incredible- everyone was friendly and very knowledgeable. We did a wine pairing that fit well with each dish. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area. Perfect experience.
