This small restaurant serves good starters like sardins in oil and mussels. The main dish I tasted was a very good beef tartare with pesto combined to a fantastic salad.Thank's a lot ! A bientôt.

The galette we had was the best we have tasted, filled with generous portions of grilled courgette, peppers, cheese, egg and fresh greens on the side. We also had a flambé Crepe, with amaretto, pistachio ice cream, nuts and chocolate and a cider. We enjoyed seeing the chef at work creating her delicious masterpieces with love. A definite must to enjoy your brunch after a stroll at the market nearby. You cannot miss its bright pink exterior outside. We have recommended this to our friends and we will come back for more if we return to Aix.

Restaurant bistronomique, accès sur un melange de saveurs sucrée-salées. Un mélange de bistrot et de cuisine gastronomique. En bref, des plats élaborés, frais, dans un cadre moderne, un service plus simple qu'un gastronomique, et surtout des prix bien plu

The first time I visited Aix a fee years ago, I had lunch in one of the generic bistros that litter the town squares. The food was generic, unremarkable and overpriced.This time around, I wanted to surprise my mother for her birthday, so made sure to do some research before hand. Gambetta had great reviews, so I decided to book and I'm glad I did. While the restaurant isn't located in a scenic town square, the food and the service are top notch. Gambetta is owned and run by a lovely couple, with the husband in the kitchen and the wife at front of house. Each dish was beautifully presented and tasted as good as it looked. The 3 dish menu was excellent value and we all happily ate all our courses.The hostess was very friendly and insisted on giving my mother free coffee and ice cream when she found out it was her birthday. We all had an excellent experience and will definitely be returning on our next trip to Aix.

This restaurant and hotel was recommended to us by a local friend and we are eternally grateful! From the moment we arrived to the incredible grounds of this property, we were blown away. Not only are the surroundings jaw-droppingly gorgeous, but the service is extraordinarily gracious, warm and friendly. Although we had a reservation, the host allowed us to take our time and enjoy cocktails on the terrace for however long we wanted - it truly felt to be their pleasure to allow us to indulge. Once inside, the restaurant was incredible, the decor gorgeous and very comfortable and the perfect service continued! From the servers to the extraordinary sommelier, who had such a delightful passion for the wines - we enjoyed every single second! And as good as this allsounds, the food was truly an even greater highlight! My husband and I agree- we think this is the best food and experience weâve ever had, and a visit to the kitchen to meet the awesome and engaging chef, gave us an opportunity to share that in-person. This restaurant and property overall will be the absolute highlight of your trip, and Iâd sincerely give it 10/5 stars if it were possible! Dear Madam, Dear SirThanks a lot for your kind words and taking the time to write a review.We thrive to create a personal and intimate experience for each guest. We are so pleased to know that youâve enjoyed every moment with us.Our sommelier are animated with a lot of passion and Chateau de la gaude is glad to had shared this great moment with you.We will welcome you again with much pleasure.La DirectionChâteau de la Gaude

I've been in l'Apéritif Français just to try to find a gift for my father (wine bottle) and I had a real lesson about "What is the French apéritif"... Thank you Pierre and Stéphane for this moment ! Really enjoyable !

Arriving at La Bastide de Venelles is like a breath of fresh air. Nestled in the beautiful French countryside and just a stones throw from Aix it is a perfect place to hang your hat. There is everything one needs for a pleasant visit to France. The restaurant is top quality with lots of local dishes (there's always a steak if it's "too" local) and a very nice wine list. The rooms are very cozy and well equipped. Everything is newly renovated. The outdoor area is beautiful and the pool area is stunning. We only had one night. I would love to get back for at least a few days. I could imagine this being a perfect place to go with a large family or a couple of families. Lovely

Excellent set meal for a group of 40 of us, in a beautiful setting in the hills outside Aix-en-Provence.An amuse-bouche, followed by smoked and marinated salmon with zucchini mousse, then guinea fowl with a mushroom sauce, dauphinoise potatoes and vegetables, then warm goats cheese and finally raspberry and vanilla macaron on a red fruit coulis. Lovely food, well presented.....but one of us is gluten-free, and the restaurant had been advised several days in advance. Gluten-free did not mean food items were substituted, they were simply omitted - no bread, no alternative to the dauphinoise potatoes.The service was very patchy at times; even though the gluten-free one of us did not have any dauphinoise potatoes, halfway through eating the main course, the waitress rushed up to take the meal away saying that it shouldn't have been served. After a discussion with another waitress, the meal was returned and pronounced ok. Heaven help anyone with a severe nut allergy.With attention to detail, the Mas d'Entremont could be excellent.

We were greeted by the Hostess/Waitress with âRoom Number?â Then we were escorted to our small table, next to two other occupied tables in a huge empty dining room. We both ordered the tasting menuâs which were pretty good, but just missing something.After the first course we asked if we could be moved to another table because a party of 6 was coming and they were again putting them right next to our table.I can understand if the restaurant is full, but this wasnât the case.The new table was nicer, but the atmosphere is lacking warmth, like a candle, a smile on the waitressâs face, and music.The hotel has the most friendly staff, but the restaurant needs love.Sorry, but I wasnât impressed.
