"Great corner restaurant with a well-crafted breakfast. I really liked the presentation, especially pancakes and bacon. Highly recommend Le Gran brunch, and great choices of hot beverages or cold juices/blends."

"Not great food, mediocre dish of the day, pompous but unsuccessful service: dishes that arrive before the end of the aperitif, and excessive waiting compared to the crowds. Unnecessary and unsanitary handshaking. Service: 2 Location: 4"

"De passage dans la région nous avons dîné ce soir dans se restaurant, quelle bonne surprise, nous avons pris la suggestion du moment, cassoulet revisité, c’était excellent, le plat était fait avec amour, il avait du goût, la jeune chef a revisité se plat avec délicatesse, il était léger et les produits utilisés étaient de qualités.L’accueil et la prise de commande faite par sa maman était irréprochable, souriant, calme et nous a bien expliqué chaque plats! Ça fait du bien de voir des restaurants comme ça, surtout dans un endroits touristiques, ces charmantes dames sont pas seulement là pour faire leurs chiffres mais pour donner le sourire au gens et émerveillé les papilles.Le petit plus et pas des moindres les prix sont plus que raisonnable!Continuez comme ça, et surtout garder votre qualité de produits.Je recommande"

"Arrived today and had reservation at the restaurant for this evening , were running a bit late so emailed them to ask to postpone for 30 mins, quick response with "no problem madam , all done for you" - so first good point , fast and active communication .We came on time (6 adults plus my 9 months old daughter ). Table waiting , baby chair ready , we all jet lagged so no wine or offer alcohol we say - ok , that's it , no more annoying "you sure you don't want to see the wine menu" business . As my husband is allergic to prawns and we all do not eat pork (as I stated that originally in the reservation ) our host double checked who is allergic to prawns and what other allergies or requests we have, here , another positive - they read what you let them know in your reservation !Now , the place itself - is gorgeous . Yes , it is on the side of the road , yet that did not seem to faze anyone : beautiful olive treats , open terrace with curly wild grape instead of thr roof , gorgeous jasmine smell ( coincidence my daughter is named Yasmeen ). Not too many tables outside and inside , yet you have plenty of space . Several menues going : a la carte, surprise menu , set menu ...all very in amount of dishes you get and prices. We opted for a la carte . So first chefs gift is note size snacks : cheese madeleines, broccoli and vinegar tart ( super nice as broccoli still crunchy and hint of vinegar is just strong enough to come through) , then followed truffle foam served in little cups as if that was green tea !My squid made two ways ( one chef's take on deep fried and the other is marinated ) as a garnish came along seviche ( raw squid bits with cucumber , mint and spices ) and boy did it raise the dish - refreshing , tingling , not overpowering taste of mint yum yum !Another starter was asparagus gnocchi - tender and one bit size with some eatable gold on top , definitely worth a try . Most interesting starter that my husband had was porcini mushrooms tart - not only beautifully presented little cake with thinnest slices of mushroom "kings " the purée or sauce inside ( mushrooms with veg and spices - almost like a mashed potato but mushroom - loving it !Main courses had both meat and fish options. I opted for veal sweetbreads -most delicate with crunchy bits and absolutely winner of a sauce : veal with some braised onion !Another great starter was the beef . Granted , there is no rocket science in making a great steak, in theory , but practice often proves us wrong . This meat was so tender and delicate , it literally melted in my mouth - so delicious yet bold dish - steak on a bed of ground black pepper : simple and beautiful !Fillet of turbot was cooked to perfection , working on the contrast with the bed of green beans it was served on. Deserts . Oh deserts . The host did ask us for our preferences in the beginning of the meal , as 4 out of 7 deserts take 45 mins to cook :) Personally , I opted for a trio of apricots : soufflé with apricot jam on the bottom , apricot sorbet with cold early grey tea and raw apricot and raw almond tart . Honestly , dish of the day ! So light , not at all sweet , beautiful presentation ! Another winner was lemon : as meringue and with thin pan cake like crust - wakes you up better than coffee! Which we did order after and yet you get more sweets : surprise ! That raspberry and pistachio tart with raspberry chard is still dancing in front of my eyes ! Those simple combinations , yet taken to the new level ! As we waiting for the bill (yes came up to 700€ but no one expects anything else choosing place as such ) there comes Michael Fulci himself to ask customers about their food - how pretty darn good is that ? ! Honestly , I couldn't fault it if I wanted to. So much positive experience : the food , the atmosphere , the people - family friendly by the way as apart from my 9 months old baby , there was another family with 2 kids slightly older. No snobby faces , all staff are smiling , food is so up there ! Will be definitely going back and as someone who has visited various Michelin starred restaurants in Europe , I am save to say this one is amongst my top 3!!Bravo!"

"We ate at Le Grimaldi in the night the whole France celebrated the first day of summer with music festival in many cities including in this old medieval town. Despite a fully booked night (all restaurants in the plaza were full) the owner and waiters made we had a great service during the whole night.Also food was excellent. It was the first time I experienced what they called Burrata Soup that was amazing. We had a four course meal and other dishes were also good but not at same level as the soup Had a great night."
