La Terrasse de Gordes

By chance on this charming restaurant held by friendly young people to listen we ate a daube to the Provençal super,good quality restaurant meat to the very high quality that from the fact home frames a little in retreat of the crowds which avoids that passersby eat on your plate c is a restaurant without chichi but not to miss to gordes

Endroit parfait! Repas d'affaires, en couplé, avec des amis... Service et cadre, mais sur une cuisine de qualité avec des produits frais et de saison. Je recommande...

We happened to find this place when walking in Gordes. It seemed like a small quaint restaurant that was quiet and peaceful. Unfortunately, there was no view despite being on hill. The staff were friendly but as the restaurant started to fill up, the service was extremely slow. The menu is shown on a blackboard so it was quite limited. We shared the plate of the day, white asparagus and oven baked Camembert. The asparagus was delicious and light. The Camembert was extremely tasty but filling. In addition, there were large slices of ham but they were nothing special. The plate of the day was a tajine but it didn’t seem at all French. For dessert we shared the chocolate cake which was delicious. Overall, it was a satisfactory meal but it could have been better if there was a view and a wider selection of meals.

Don’t be fooled by the blackboard, the menu is the same every single day. No emphasis on seasonal ingredients or local produce. I had the plat du jour one day which was pork ribs that were completely inedible due to all the fat on them. My son’s duck was too tough to cut or chew. It’s in such a cute little spot, it’s a shame that they are obviously catering to tourists and not looking for repeat business.

We had a wonderful meal. The food is fresh and well prepared The staff were very nice and the setting is lovely.
