La Table de Pierre Reboul

Restaurant Michelin€€€€581 m

Olives, which are central to Pierre Reboul’s work, inspired both the low-key, natural interior of his restaurant and his cuisine steeped in creativity. In the stylish, intimate setting of the Renaissance Hotel, exclusive materials and olive-green shades set the scene. A terrace framed by two olive trees and a counter overlooking the open-plan kitchen add the final touches to the portrait. The Chef celebrates regional produce in dishes that look as good as they taste: trompe-l’oeil olives explode in the mouth, a delicate, inventive trilogy on a Mediterranean shrimp theme or a subtle, crunchy co

Étude

Restaurant Michelin€€€€1.3 km

Non-conformist chef Loïc Pétri cut his teeth in leading Parisian establishments (Jean-François Piège, Joël Robuchon) before going back to his roots in the south of France. In the heart of the historical part of Aix, in his intimate, contemporary-style restaurant with just 12 covers, he lets his inspiration run riot with a single set menu guided by the seasons. With bold associations and a savvy use of oils, spices and chillies, his free-spirited cooking elevates the finest ingredients, such as bass, lobster and sweetbreads, which are treated with care and dexterity. You can sense the commitmen

Les Galinas

RestaurantBib Gourmand€€1.6 km

In a shady little side street in the old town, three young partners, les galinas (or "big boys" in Provençal), opened this bistro with a view to bringing back Provençal cuisine in the vein of grandma's home cooking. True to their watchwords of simplicity and flavour, they steer clear of exotic recipes and convoluted new takes on dishes; rather, they keep things local, when it comes to both the vibe and the food: Provençal-style tomatoes (a master class!), competition-level aioli, lamb tripe or monkfish raïto sauce to die for… thanks to the freshest ingredients and a sure hand. A warm welcome.

Le Art - Château de la Gaude

Restaurant Michelin€€€€6.2 km

In this 18C bastide, chef Mathieu Derible presents pared-back cuisine rooted in Provençal traditions. Nods to Normandy and Burgundy permeate his creations, reflecting his training under great masters. The remarkably precise sauces complement fine ingredients in simply presented dishes. Overlooking the château's formal garden, the terrace is a magical setting in which to discover a wine list with plenty of labels from Burgundy and Provence. Attentive service is the icing on the cake of this serene and refined experience.

Licandro - Le Bistro

Restaurant€€€1.2 km

This small family business is run by chef Felipe Licandro and Julie, his wife (front of house). Originally from Madrid, he went on to work in some of France's top kitchens. The lunchtime chalkboard menu features well-crafted market-fresh cuisine; the evening menu is more extensive, but always in the bistronomy and traditional spirit.

Restaurant€€1.7 km

One immediately falls under the charm of this contemporary and cosy decor (designer furniture, light wood and green-blue walls): a pleasant little place run by a pair who are eager to please. The chef prepares delicious seasonal dishes according to his inspiration. Meanwhile, the sommelier always has the right advice to guide you in your wine choice. A winning duo.

La Taula Gallici

Restaurant€€€€1.8 km

Understated luxury and stylish elegance on the heights of the town. The menu stars sun-drenched French fare served on low tables in superb lounges or on a peaceful terrace shaded by plane trees and overlooking the pool carved out of Rognes stone and adorned in statues and terracotta vases. The chef's signatures include grilled squid, jus of Provençal stew, ‘nduja seasoning and umbrine sautéed in fleur de sel with fennel purée and Alfredo sauce. The epitome of the good life in Provence!

Âma Terra

Restaurant€€€€2.2 km

Diners are faced with a dilemma in the restaurant of this magnificent hotel. You can opt to dine in the inside space, with its Second Empire glass roof, crystal chandeliers and imposing china cabinet, or on the gorgeous terrace, with the gentle sound of water tinkling in the pools and fountains and the scent of typical Mediterranean fragrances hanging in the air. The Chef cooks up gourmet cuisine with Provençal overtones and a backdrop of original and striking associations.
