Gault&Millau's review 2025

From one chef to the next, from one idea to the next, from one dining room team to the next, we try to keep up with this somewhat permanent waltz in this place of undeniable charm and chic. Let's not get ahead of ourselves by naming the current chef. What we tasted this year had allure in a certain simplicity, without taking too many risks: berlingot de poisson bleu, fromage blanc fumé, radish granité and dill vinaigrette, "contemporary" mussel soup, despite a slightly old-fashioned presentation, burnt grapefruit and pistes à la sétoise, barbecued Sisteron lamb breast, braised eggplant with red wine, a lovely, tasty dish, dessert "du jardin provençal" with aniseed-flavored cucumber juice and garrigue sorbet. A very extensive regional menu, with the others, except Bordeaux, quite proudly represented.
