"En poussant la porte de ce nouveau restaurant français, on entre dans un lieu qui s'apparente aux mas du sud. La décoration est soignée, chaleureuse, sans être étouffante, et l'intérieur est chic et sobre. Le menu est court, mais tous les plats sont un pur délice. La cuisson du steak, selon votre goût est une vraie réussite. Goûtez le saumon en croûte, il est formidable. Bref, le restaurant est prometteur." (Guide de tourisme "Le Petit Futé")
