I thoroughly enjoyed my two meals at this restaurant (lunch and diner). We ate outdoors on a nice day that was not too hot but that did have a few mosquitoes around i the evening. This is a hotel so, naturally, you have children running around and a variety of clients. It is open to outside customers and has a lovely pool. We were seated at a superb table near the pool but off to one side offering considerable privacy. The menu was not large but it gave choices of meats, fishes, and Provençal dishes. The wines were of the region which is worth mentioning as it is a region of the Arpiles that produces decent wines. Service was efficient and professional making this a very good middle level restaurant. My note of 15 is therefore for a well executed meal that well presented and delicious. I can also highly recommend the hotel, although make sure to ask for one of the renovated rooms (slightly more expensive).

The owners plan to enlarge the eating area by moving the swimming pool but it did not bother us in the slightest. The noise from the nearby street was a little annoying. Beware of mosquitoes on some nights.
