Provencal restaurants in Aix En Provence

  1. A

    Amphityron

    Amphityron combines the talents of co-owners Patrice Lesné and Bruno Ungaro. Patrice masterfully oversees the sleek dining rooms of studded red banquettes and outdoor 15th-century cloister terrace; passionate chef Bruno visits the markets each morning for seasonal specialities, which might include 15 different types of tomatoes. The attached Comptoir de l'Amphi is an affordable alternative; and there's a piano where guests knock out a tune after a cognac or two.

    Bastide du Cours

    In the beating heart of Aix, this café right on cours Mirabeau has a delightful interior garden where you can get a culinary taste of Provence with dishes such as slow-roasted lamb shank with wild thyme and locally grown tomatoes. It also has four richly adorned chambre d'hôte rooms with a visual taste of Provence's striped, flowered and checked fabrics. Rates jump about 30% in July.

    Le Zinc d'Hugo

    Outside this rustic bistro of stone walls and chunky wooden tables, a blackboard chalks up daily specials such as a terrine of foie gras with confit of vegetables, as well as highlights from its 80-strong wine list.
