After one year and several family lunches in this place, I must say they are one of the best places to go in this area. As in all places they struggled to find people to manage service, but this summer in spite of deep frequentation, they found the right and efficient persons. Food is fresh and good, from appetizers to desserts. I just wish they can renew their menus some time and also accept more payment means. For French tourists this would be a real improvement. Otherwise, good luck for their second year.

About 15 minutes passed before asking if we wanted an aperitif, which we ordered. The beverages arrived about 15 minutes later (30 minutes after arriving at the restaurant) when we placed our food order. During this time we were not offered water or bread and no explanation or apology for the delay. Nearly 30 (additional) minutes later (one hour after we arrived at the restaurant) our food arrived. At that point we were not asked if we would like a second drink or again, no apology for the long wait. We were also offended when other guests who had arrived after us were served and finished their meal before ours arrived. Our meal was fine, although nothing exceptional. A very disappointing experience and we won’t return!

The loup sea bass was so delicious that we returned to eat it one more time on the way to the Avignon TGV station. The staff is very friendly, there is both in and outdoor seating, and the prices are reasonable.

We really enjoyed the good mood of the master of the places that do the service. Plates made from fresh and quality products. Everything was good and in sufficient quantity and for a reasonable price. We'll be back.
