Bistrot des Alpilles

This has sustained as one of our favorite restaurants in St Remy. Gorgeous atmosphere, beautiful product, welcoming service. It feels special and also inviting.

Definitely worth a 2 star Michelin rating, the whole menu was impeccable, textures, flavours, temperatures, it was an explosion of flavours.However we found the atmosphere and decor of the place a bit too cold

We looked at the menu online and had picked out two items which attracted us to the restaurant ( anchovy starter and duck main dish).  Unfortunately both of the items were gone from the menu at the restaurant.  We 0rdered the sliced beef on arugula, and although tasty, the meat was a bit tough in spots.   But overall, a nice re staurant.

The staff were very friendly and helpful if a bit unsure, but the food was disappointing to say the least. The club sandwich was unpleasant - stone cold and contained inedible and rather revolting slimy chicken slices which may well have come from a catering pack. At these prices, really? The gambas linguine was ok but served lukewarm. Our first plates arrived after about 40 minutes which is way too long. We had to prompt to get a wine list. Wine list is great by the way but food and service do not match it sorry to say.. Lastly we had to negotiate with several staff to be allowed to take dessert and coffee in the bar which was next door along the corridor (the coffee never arrived) . Again, really? The restaurant room was hot and dark and surely you should be able to move tables in a large hotel without a fuss? Where was the manager? Although there were several staff around we had to carry our own water and glasses through to the bar . We were made to pay up before moving next door (3 metres away!) as though we might have made a run for it! -  which kind of summed up the rather disconnected approach to service..

Good location just off the old town ring road and out of the main tourist fray. Great terrace. Really refined cooking. Good wine list with good variety of local wines. Correct service. Highly recommended spot for lunch.

Great experience, outstanding service, etc.... If you go to the Terrasse, you will surely enjoy the food, the wine, and the ambiance at least as much as we have.
