Thanks to Trip Advisor, we chose this little restaurant for lunch after visiting nearby Vaugines, a delightful wee village. A very friendly welcome from Mathieu and a pleasant atmophere, not too noisy despite being nearly full. Jolly decor. A choice of daily specials or the regular menu, so we ate off the blackboard and were more than delighted. The food was properly cooked, but also beautifully presented, really whetting the appetite. Probably the best meal of our holiday (we have one more to go). We would go again in a flash.

We were traveling through the Luberon and discovered this small restaurant in the middle of a small and not well known town. We ate out front in the courtyard and had a full view of the town. We were pleasantly surprised at how good and creative the food was. I'm sure the menu changes based on what's available locally but I got the feeling that you can't go wrong here. Food was presented well and both creative and tasty. A lovely local rosé topped it off.

Discovered this restaurant by Google search. Noted the high rating, we decided to give it a try. There were free car parking spaces along the adjacent streets. Once arrived the restaurant, the staff greeted us and arranged a table. As soon as he heard I spoke English instead of French, he used bilingual to communicate with us. How attentive and smart gaining our very good impression. We ordered a 5-course dinner at the price of â¬41 each. It came with a bowl of grape juice and basil, avocado and smoke fish plus a fried curry and wasabi meatball. Very creative and flavorful. Nice job. The homemade gnocchi was exceptional! It paired with homemade tomato sauce and parmigiano crisps. We loved the taste. Two main dishes, one trout with roasted Japanese tea foam and onion crisps, the other was veal with mushrooms. Again, tasty. Then, followed by a cheese plate and caramelised apricot with rosemary ice-cream and chocolate sable to bring the meal a happy ending.The portion size was very generous. Overall food quality and services exceeded our expectations.The dinner was extremely valued for money. Highly recommended.

This Michelin 1star restaurant is excellent. Very good, seasonal cuisine with a Chef and team that really know what they are doing. Creative with flavors that worked together. The amuse* particularly was like your tongue throwing a party for your mouth! --Lovely atmosphere, elegant but casual and not stuffy at all. Service was the perfect balance of professional and warm but not wanting or needing to be your best friend. One of the best overall lunches I've had in a long time! We'll be back.*Amuse: Cream/foam of volaille with truffle and pumpkin seeds, and a surprise of al dente fresh shelled peas at the bottom of the cup. I could have had another one easily! (see picture below)

Excellent, Throroughly Recommended For A Special Occasion

If you are visiting the Vaucluse region of France -- e.g. Roussillon, Menerbes, Gordes, etc. -- don't miss the excellent restaurants in Goult, a smaller hilltop French town nearby. Goult is not a 'tourist village' but has some excellent restaurants. We enjoyed Le Bartaville on our last trip. Call ahead for reservations; this is popular spot for very good reasons! (We booked the last table in October, for example - well past the 'tourist' season.) The food was excellent. Let me say that again, "Excellent!" They were very friendly too, despite our limited French. The ambiance of the restaurant is perfect -- ancient stone arches with a warm atmosphere. In the summer they also have tables on the walk-street outside, under umbrellas.In short, La Bartavelle is definitely worth the drive from wherever you are staying in the Vaucluse. Park in the small Goult town square; La Bartavelle is a <5 minute walk. And call ahead for that reservation! Mark and Nadine Hays

We went to dinner here on the strength of their tripadvisor rating and reviews. Our experience here was different from the glowing tripadvisor ratings. The artichoke first course the waitress recommended was okay, but nothing remarkable. For the mains, I thought I was ordering the beef (we had communication issues as my French is limited as was the waitress's English) but got the lamb. There was so much fat on the lamb that there was hardly anything to eat. What I did eat was very tough. Others at the table ordered two vegetarian dishes, both of which were left unfinished due to lack of flavor. The mains cost around 20 euros each. For what we got, and particularly for the vegetarian dishes, it was not a good value. Maybe we ordered the wrong dishes, but after our experience we were not eager to go back to try others. During dinner, I overheard the owner urging the couple seated next to our table to write positive tripadvisor reviews. Perhaps this helps to explain, in part, such a high rating?

We code the restaurant after reading the good reviews and werenât disappointed.We experienced a warm welcome and amazing service. The two ladies in charge were flexible in the ingredients of the dishes (allergies and things we dislike), the food was delicious, the atmosphere was lovely and all of this left us with great experience.

We had lunch twice at LâEnvol and on both occasions everything about the experience was superb. Sarah is a fantastic maitre dâ who provides excellent service. The restaurant offers great value for money as they do a lunch menu for 16 euros which includes a main course, dessert and coffee. We have been so impressed with lunch weâre going for dinner next week. You have to visit this restaurant!!!

On the shaded in summer or by the fireplace in winter terrace, come taste and refined Provencal cuisine. Our land of Provence is generous, it offers products rich in flavors and sun-drenched. Thus, the seasons our chef will pamper you propose with talent.

A pleasant small hotel with excellent restaurant in quiet countryside. We were attracted to this hotel by the nationwide Tous Au Restaurant offer as part of the Gastronomic weekend. The meal was very good and was served under the shade of of a large wisteria. An amuse bouche was followed by a tasty foire gras with sweet dark confiture de olive, a nice combination. The main was a delicious fillet of Dorade with girolle mushrooms followed by a complex dessert of chocolate and ice cream. Even though it was a special offer I thought the menu price at 45 euros was a bit on the high side for a normal meal. Service was friendly and cheerful.
