Visited September 2018 for dinner. The welcome was ok, the food was good but simple and lacking a real Provencal touch. Tuna tartare, artichoke tart and beef filet. Ate better at Tata Simone the day before - much better in fact.Service was ok, but lacking provencal warmth and empathy.The chef has big poster in the courtyard, stating his qualifications. It would be nicer to have him visit the client tables after their meal.CP & CP Family

We had my motherâs birthday party at Franckâs place. Fish soup was excellent and the lamb and beans too. A special birthday cake (aux 3 chocolats) was produced ex nihilo during the meal, the restaurant didnât know it was a birthday party when we arrived. We had lunch in the wine cellar which created a feel good atmosphere. Food is superb, staff very friendly and helpful, the only attention point is that staff was a bit to eager to sell that extra bottle of wine, which we did not refuse but did not really need...

The service was slow, no two ways about it. On arrival many seated diners but very little food in evidence. The menu is limited and confused. Starters of foie gras included soup, ice cream and creme broullee. The broullee was more scrambled eggs than creme. Personally I would have preferred some foie gras and maybe some toasts. After an interminable wait the main course meats were good, although why veal requires curry sauce or beef bbq sauce is perhaps a sign of an insecure chef trying too hard. The veal was requested pink but served medium. Dessert was OK but no idea what it was. The waitress spilled my coffee in my lap and it took three attempts to get the bill. Overall, my lasting impression is how few customers were smiling, and how many seemed frustrated by the inattentive service.

Excellent cuisine without any doubt, all the food is delicious, tasty and light. One can describe it as a fusion of Provençal, Belgian and typical French cooking. Service is mostly alright, but can also sometimes be poor, in particular from one of the waiters : unaccommodating, unfriendly, even begrudging, bordering on rudeness. Ask to be seated away from the useless and unpleasant large fan in the corner. Will try to avoid coming back.

Our chef Fabien Taguemount, offers gourmet cuisine and generous sunny accents, prepared exclusively with fresh fruits and vegetables grown on the property in organic farming or supplied by small local producers. All our products are quality farm. We would
This is a small restaurant associated with an inn so may be hard to book as hotel guests get priority. It Is well worth it. The setting is charming, the service professional but not stuffy, and the food is to die for. We are vegetarians and as such, not very popular diners in France. We gave them advance notice and were delighted by our meal. The "amuse bouche" of truffled pumpkin soup lingers in the memory, as does the beautiful stuffed eggplant and root vegetables pulled from the nearby Potager. We were touched by the thoughtfulness care and beauty that went into the preparation of this meal.

Passing through the absolutely charming village of Eygalieres my friends and I decided to try dining at Brasserie Le Progress. Because of the somewhat isolated location of Eygalieres and the high end real estate in the area we were hoping to enjoy a quality French cooked meal in a quiet setting. The atmosphere of the restaurant is nice......right in the center of the small village of Eygelieres.... a great place to watch the world go by. Thatâs about all you will get if you have the dining experience we had. Upon entering the restaurant we were greeted by a young man who proceeded to speak to us in French. When we quietly asked if he spoke English, he increased the volume of his voice and said. â What, you donât speak French ? What a shame, â. I noticed how the heads of other diners turned as he raised his voice to us and led us to our table. There was an uncomfortable feeling and tension in the air that remained throughout dinner. Not what we were looking for during our first night in Egyalieres after traveling 16 hours !!!Our waiter then provided us with menus which were in French and then left. My friends and I who are non French speaking , not surprisingly, had a few questions about the menu. When our waiter returned we first asked him if he could suggest a local red wine. He proceeded to laugh and say.... â of course, but It will be the most expensive bottle of wine on the menu â.... if I were not seated with my friends I would have gotten up and walked out.... this waiters sarcasm and rudeness was totally unacceptable and it only increased throughout the evening. My friends wife then proceeded to question the waiter about a dish on the menu....it was as though his command of English evaporated. I found it amazing that he could be so sarcastic in English on one hand and yet not understand a simple question like, how was a dish prepared ? Yes... I truly understand that likely this individuals command of the English language was not very good.... but why go out of your way to make patrons feel like it is their fault for not being able to read the menu.I then proceed to ask the waiter what on the menu he recommended..... here again he proceeded to laugh again and say.... â how would I know , you are the one who will be doing the eating. â. After hearing this comment I just pointed to the first thing on the menu knowing I wanted to leave ASAP......so entrecôte and pom fritters it was.As is typical in France , the entrecôte was not a thick cut of meat ....maybe 1\2 inch or less in thickness. The meat was very sinewy ...you were basically looking for pieces of digestible meat and cutting it away from the fat and sinew. The pom fritters were no better.... semi cold and not crisp.To add insult to injury, upon paying the bill... one of my friends was uncertain about the amount to leave for a gratuity.... I would have left nothing. But given their good nature my friend reached into their wallet and pulled out a bank note equal to 25% of the total bill !!! Clearly my friend had no idea what they were doing given how we all commented on the poor attitude of our waiter....and before I knew it the waiter grabbed the bill, said merci and quickly walked away. My friend was too embarrassed to ask the waiter to return and we subsequently left. Contrast the rudeness of this Le Progress waiter to the DELIGHFUL dining experience you will have at Paulettes (see my review) which is only a block away , up the street toward the church. At Paulettes I gave an extra gratuity of 15 Euros for superb food and service and our waitress asked if we wanted change from the 15 Euros which we didnât. She realized the tip was excessive and she was courteous to ask to make sure we did not make a mistake. I felt so bad for my friends who were visiting Europe for the first time in 25 years ...to be treated like âthis is beyond rude...This is not a place where non French speaking patrons are made to feel welcome. Add to this the poor service and below average food quality you have much better dining alternatives to choose from in Eygalieres and near by Saint Remy....again check out Paulettes.

This intimate, family-run bistro never disappoints. Ambiance? Welcoming and peaceful, delightfully appointed by owner, Christine. Service? Always with a smile and gracious attention. Food? Offering a perfect blend of fine dining and more casual options, expertly prepared and plated by chef Alex and sous-chef, Veerle. We enjoy Aubergine each year we visit Eygalières. If only time for one evening or mid-day dining, this restaurant should be the choice.

The restaurant Paulette is a family restaurant with traditional French cuisine updated to the taste of the day. Come and discover the true flavor of Provence in a coquettish setting and in a very warm atmosphere! The restaurant is open 7/7 from 11 a.m to
After spending the late afternoon and early evening touring the Lavender/Sunflower fields throughout the Valensole region, we arrived @ 10:00pm at Cafe Paulette.Despite the kitchen in the process of closing, the owner's graciously accommodated our party of 4 and served us a wonderful dinner of Veal/Sea Bass along with a local white wine on the recommendation of the owner's wife.She was kind enough to wait on us personally and saw to our every need. We enjoyed the food/service/ambiance so much, that we returned again the following night for another dinner on our last nite in Provence.
