We went to Le Marrakech because of endless rows with teenage kids about what to eat; one of the kids loves couscous, they both love merguez sausages... we arrived early but were soon eating from a vast pot of couscous, a pot of meats and a casserole of soup and vegetables. All very delicious - unsophisticated, but vast portions and very filling. I wished they did some of the lovely salady starter dishes that I associated with North African/Middle Eastern cooking - but the manager/owner explained that no one ever wanted them - so we made do with some wine to accompany it all.The decor is enjoyable too - perhaps some of these things are a bit cliched - but I still enjoy all the tiles, couches, lamps etc.

We had a very good pizza there for dinner with a nice green salad. Next time we ate there we had the lamb cutlets, just terrible. Chewy, dry over-cooked or seemed to be. Another place where you say as you leave, "Man I wish I would have eaten somewhere else!".

Kadija is fun smiling and prepares the best Pizzas in town. If you are in the mood for some other dishes, you'll be surprised by the excellent taste and portions.You'll have a great time among local people who go there very regularly and the lively atmosphere she has created for her restaurant.

Right in downtown Orange, in a former mansion of the nineteenth century, fully restored, our young Chef offers a delicate cuisine, gourmet, rich in flavors, and prepared with fresh products, favoring local products.

Notre passage au vin Chambré à été une vraie belle découverte. Nous avons été accueilli dans une ambiance très conviviale et chaleureuse. Les hôtes de la maison sont souriantes et accueillantes, on se sent tout de suite comme à la maison.Cet ancien hôtel particulier nous réserve une belle surprise à la découverte de sa terrasse et son jardin caché... Quel beauté ! Au soleil, accompagné du chant des oiseaux en pleine ville, nous avons pu déguster une formule midi entrée + plat + dessert de très grande qualité gustative et avec un très bon rapport qualité/prix (23euros).Le nouveau jeune chef nous a émerveillé avec son plat principal, une julienne de poisson accompagné d'une sauce vierge très bien assaisonné et son trio de quinoa façon risotto, un vrai régal ! La carte des vins est petite mais les vins proposés sont des valeurs sûres, d'une grande qualité ! Je conseille fortement le côte du rhône blanc: Orior / Ortas.Bref, c'est un passage obligatoire si vous venez découvrir la ville d'orange.De plus, nous avons eu la chance de visiter les suites qui sont incroyablement, décorées avec gout et très spacieuse. Je recommande ce lieu et reviendrai avec grand plaisir cet été.

At the Roman Theatre end of the main square, with a good view down from the outside tables. We found this place at the Roman Theatre end of the main square, right by the bijou Orange Opera house. Nice view down from the outside tablesThis is that rarity in France - genuine Italian food, cooked and served in this case by a Sicilian family.The long list of pasta dishes tells you it's not a French imitation. Not haute cuisine; the carpaccio was out of a packet and my wife's red mullet livornese was a bit heavy on the tomato/olive sauce, We didn't try the pizzas - but the Spaghetti alle Vongole was the real deal. Small vongole veracci in the shell, perfectly-textured pasta, and a powerful parsley and garlic dressing. I could have been anywhere on the Italian coast from Ventimiglia to Venice. No Italian wines yet - the place has only been open a few days - but it looks a good bet if you're visiting Orange. Even if you're driving past on the A8, the town is five minutes off the autoroute and parking is generous.

Located just outside the impressive stage wall of the theatre it provides an interesting view for sure. The food is good and reasonably priced. Staff is attentive and helpful. All-in-all a "safe" choice if you don't expect gourmet food, but still want to eat well-prepared food.

We really enjoyed this restaurant. Need a break from French food? Go Moroccan:) Huge helpings, lots of healthy vegetables, scrumptious chicken. Try the hot sauce. It's hot but slightly sweet too. A small bottle of rose, 10â¬. Lunch for two-35⬠Lovely waitress.

Lunch on Saturday June 1st. Food really good but the staff! If you were local you had their undivided attention, long conversations and mutual appreciation. If you were a tourist, and British to boot, you were repeatedly ignored. 2 hours in a car park was not enough. An hour for the first course, another for the mains, repeated requests to clear the table and have the dessert menu achieved the board being thrown across the table and shouting. The bill, when it came was of course wrong, (not the only table). We watched others give up and walk off. We shall not return. I doubt they will give a damn.
2. Les Saveurs du Marche

Reviewed By Oparazzo
Orange's two main attractions are located right next to each other: The ancient theater and Les Saveurs du Marche. Since we arrived in the city only after 12:30 we began our short stay with the latter. And we were lucky enough to snatch the very last free table; numerous, less fortunate aspirants got turned away later. We were even luckier because it was a table that was still in the shade also two and a half hours later; it always puzzles me that anyone can survive even half a bottle of wine in the Provence's midday sun.Feeling frivolous and with plenty of time at our disposal, we opted for the 4-course menu à 31 Euros (see the photo for details). God, what a feast... Everything was fresh, cooked perfectly to the point, arranged beautifully. The living proof that even at tourist hot spots a restaurant can offer value for money. And that this place is run and served bye a very pleasant couple made our stay even more enjoyable.After all this exuberance I feel entitled to some criticism. First of all, the main dish both of us had (the other one, filet de boeuf, was out even though it was rather early in the day), the four giant gambas which were cooked and served unpared and uncleaned, causing a number of problems:1. They are a mess to eat, and I personally hate to touch glass and cutlery with greasy fingers (they came with salad and a small bowl of vegetables), notwithstanding the fact that they were a delicious mess to eat, which leads to #2:2. Too much good juice gets thrown away with the shells. When we make prawn in the shells at home I lick them clean before I peel them, but I rather not do so in public.3. The intestines. Even if they don't taste bitter (some did), they look disgusting. You don't even have to remove the shells to take them out! Lordy, that almost cost you a point.And then there is the one single toilet that serves all. I had to wait for over five minutes before I could wash my hands after the gambas.That were the small downsides. Otherwise we left extremely satisfied and still able to climb up and down the adjacent theater (the fact that we had skipped the wine also helped a lot).

Barbara's in the kitchen! And, that's a very good thing. If you're in Orange stop by if you like Italian food at reasonable prices. We stopped by towards the end of lunchtime and the outdoor seating was packed with locals. So, we went inside, ordered some wine and watched the food being served. Barbara kept cooking and talking with us until we had decided what we wanted. Very cool. We enjoyed the pasta with vegetables, cannoli with meat inside, two large salads and two awesome desserts. All for under 45â¬. Barbara and Nicholas (server) work really hard to make everything work for their customers. We'll be back tomorrow! Thank you, I hope of see you tomorow, regards Barbara
