The master chef at Le Parvis offers his guests an impressive menu de dégustation, made of local ingredients assembled in surprisingly delicious tastes !! From the appéro up to the final coffee, the menu pushes you through a gastronomic voyage... there's no service à la carte, you have to pay for the whole menu (~€90). Worth it !!

Wow what a superb restaurant!! Excellent friendly service, calm atmosphere & a well prepared seasonal menu. We both chose a scallop & beetroot starter, bursting with flavour with interesting textures that complimented each other perfectly, next the seared tuna with nuts , lime, shallots, tomato served with a broccoli purée, divine best describes this dish, perfect. A plate of 3 cheeses is served next & finally dessert a banana chocolate mousse with biscuit crumbs. Small interesting wine list. Book ahead & enjoy!

This hotel was a convenient stopping off spot on our way home from holiday but chosen also because of its (Michelin) reputation for good food at reasonable prices.
We had been told the restaurant opened at 19.15 but decided to come down a bit early to sit outside in the garden. We'd hoped for a glass or two of wine while we perused the menu – but it seemed that serving staff eat their dinner before service – so we waited in vain. Not to worry though – it was relaxing and pleasantly cool under the trees.
We opted for the most expensive set menu, persuaded by its promise of foie gras, lobster and scallops. Along with the wine (we chose ‘vin ouvert’ which was perfectly drinkable – a white first, followed a couple of glasses later by pink) came a bowl of crunchy veg sticks, a yoghurty dip and some good bread. A nice touch.
Our first course was baked foie, warm, crusty on the outside, silken within. It was served with raspberries and melted chocolate – an inspired accompaniment. It was delicious – and we wasted not a scrap, mopping fatty, chocolaty juices with that bread.
Next came scallops. Plump, juicy, cooked to perfection, served with a foamy sauce and topped with a dollop of caviar … again really really good.
However, things then slowed down markedly – before coming to a virtual standstill. The scallops had arrived at 12 minutes past 8 (this I know because I took their photo) a perfectly reasonable twenty minutes after the foie (ditto). We then waited until nine for our lobster ravioli – by which time I was getting just a bit fidgety (we had after all spent a very hot 9 hours in the car). And then we waited some more; it was another hour before we got the cheese (a pre-prepared - and rather dull if I'm honest - plate, surely straight from the fridge) and almost as long again for dessert. I’m afraid we left without bothering with coffee, eyelids drooping.
It was clear that the waiting staff that evening were overstretched (too many covers?) but they were also at times annoyingly inefficient, with one waitress pointlessly clearing a vacated table while people nearby all but passed out from lack of food or wine.
Don’t get me wrong; the food really was very good indeed – but unfortunately it was let down on this particular occasion by the slow service.

This lovely little restaurant has become my favorite place for lunch whenever I am holidaying in Orange.
Barbara is a bubbly Italian Lady, always in a great welcoming mood. The food is truly italian and very fresh made with love either by Barbara or La Mamma!
Our plates are sent back to the kitchen...very empty!
We appreciate the fact that she changes the menu everyday, depending on what she gets from the market. We are not bored with her menu, even if we lunch there 3 times a week.
The wine list is very simple but pleasant.
There s a lovely little patio right next to a cinema theatre so it s a good spot to lunch if there s a movie we want to see at 2pm.
The coffee is so good that I always have 2...And Barbara remembers that...She brings me another coffee as soon as my first cup is empty. I could drink coffee until I am shaking there.
See you soon Barbara!

Recommended by Hotel Lou Cigaloun (Emmanuelle) this proved a real find for a proper dinner menu. The local wine and local cuisine were tasteful and exceptional. Yummy.

We ate here for lunch today. Not much was open in Orange but we happened upon La Dinette quite late, 2.30. They had only two items available on the lunch menu but both memorable. Very fresh with lovely presentation. The apple tart was to die for as well. I would really recommend this for lunch to anyone who likes fresh cooked simple but excellent good at a very reasonable price.

My family suggested this restaurant ,I was very skeptical , but it turn out to be excellent , it's located in a small street in the center of Orange (great location at the time of the choregies)
I can only talk about the couscous, because that's all we had,rightly so as the portions are very generous and excellent and so is the friendly service
I will go back to try the tajines and other specialty
PS:it certainly won't break your bank!
8. l'Arausio

Reviewed By velobob - Huddersfield, Yorkshire
This is a two person operation by the restaurant owners, Stéphane and Valérie, and you can tell the difference. Friendly, highly professional service with beautifully cooked and presented food makes this place special. Locally sourced fruit and vegetables are evident in many dishes. The house wine is reasonably priced and good quality supplemented by an excellent wine list if you want to splash out. After service, the chef patron visited the diners and was keen to talk about the food.
You can look at the menus in the big square but the experience at L'Arausio will live long in my memory.

Similar to another reviewer we entered the empty restaurant to be told (very grump tone) they were only serving on the Terrace which was full. We just looked on in amazement and pointed to all the set but empty tables inside. The gentleman just disappeared into the kitchen....
