Restaurant Le Mas d'Aigret

The location is beautiful, the people are welcoming and friendly, but the food does not live up to its price! Would not recommend!

I would like to have given this restaurant a higher rating because of the beautiful location, but unfortunately there were some problems. We tried to eat here our first night in Les Baux, but were turned away because we had no reservations, although... the outdoor restaurant was 3/4 empty and it was late enough that dinner was over the evening. We reserved for the next night. We had a table outside what we wanted. The view is exquisite, view of the castle, the green is beautiful, the environment is quiet and peaceful. The food was pretty good, but unfortunately the service was not and that put a steamer on the meal. Maybe the waiter (there was only one) had a bad night, but even though he was a rather nice guy, he messed up our order so badly that it really did on an unfavorable experience. We served not only the food we did not order, but when we tried to clarify things (I have food allergies, so could not eat what was given to me, not what I ordered), we landed on getting our food at 3 different times, so each one of us ate alone while the other two saw. Even this we could have accepted/forgiving, but the waiter never realized his confusion and, instead of clarifying the order, he decided to frighten and ignore us (he had someone else who supplies the plates to the table). Next time, it would be better to admit that he forgot what we ordered and just ask us to clarify. We were very polite, so there was no reason to ask ourselves.

After the exhibition Carrieres we reserved a table for lunch. The restaurant is located in a beautiful hotel, just below the walls of Les Baux. We had a delicious, relaxing meal under umbrellas, with a beautiful view of the distant mountains. The staff was friendly and efficient. Very recommended!

We had lunch here twice during our recent stay in Saint Rémy de Provence the only place we ate at twice. The first time we were visiting the village of Les Baux, and wanted an alternative to the very touristy restaurants in the village. Mas d'Aigret, just...a short walk from the village entrance, was perfect. We had a fairy tale view from the terrace, and enjoyed fish and poultry with a great local wine (Ste Berthe blanc de blanc). On a rainy day, when we came back to visit the Carrières de Lumières, we ate inside, in a room partially carved out of the hillside. In both cases, my parents (in their mid 90s with hearing aids) loved the peace and quiet of this place, in contrast to some noisy bistrots we ate at on other days. Cross your fingers that the Saint Honoré (cream puff with vanilla cream and fruit) is the dessert of the day! The owner is very personable; his family runs the restaurant and the small charming hotel.

Settled beneath the magnifcent Chateau des Baux-de-Provence, Le Mas d'Aigret is a lovely place to enjoy a meal before heading to Les Baux de Provence or the Carrières de Lumières. The staff is extremely friendly and attentive, I enjoyed both lunch and dinner and both...meals were a treat.
