We had an excellent dinner this evening at L'Opera restaurant. We arrived for our 30th wedding anniversary and the staff set up our table with hearts, love stickers, etc. they even brought us a dessert with a sparkler and the number 30 on it.
Two of us ordered the lamb, my wife ordered the vegetarian plate. All of the food was cooked to perfection - the lamb was tender and tasty. The vegetables were beautifully cooked and very fresh.
Our waitress was the highlight of the night. She was working so hard with so many tables but always checked in on us to make sure we were ok. She was extremely efficient and friendly, and we tipped her very well to show our appreciation.
A big thank you to the chef - it was a fantastic experience and we will definitely be back!

This restaurant is owned and operated by a couple who put their heart and soul into this business, and it is evidenced by the amazing food and warm welcoming service service offered.

We made a reservation for six people. When we got there, they had no table for us. He claimed he was in the kitchen and didn’t see the reservation until he had already seated people ant our table, obviously walk ins. He was unpleasant, unapologetic and rude. There were better ways to handle this, but he chose the worst response. Will make sure no one we know goes there.

L’opera, a resto to keep on your short-list!
We enjoyed a main dish with a glass of wine for appx 40 euro per person. The chef was super friendly, and part-timed as sommelier and gérant. The monkfish (le loup) was fresh, perfectly-prepared and was accompanied by a mix of veggies cooked to perfection. The vegetarian main course was a feast with four seasons of veggies on a plate. It says a lot how much effort a chef puts in cooking veggies. It was devine! Highly recommended!

Jeremy, our host, server AND chef kept the restaurant open for us, and we could not be more pleased he did - the experience was impeccable in every sense. The attention to every detail of the meal was seen and tasted - do yourself a favor and have a meal and bottle of wine here. Thank you Jeremy we’ll be back!!!

Étude
Sauvage means wild, echoing its eclectic, non-conformist chef, Loïc Pétri, who learned the ropes in leading Parisian establishments (Jean-François Piège, Joël Robuchon), before returning to his southern roots. In this trendy eatery on a pedestrian street of Aix, he lets his inspiration run riot five evenings a week. Guided by bold associations and a spot-on use of oils, spices and peppers, his unchained cooking stars winning recipes, among which a sushi of Camargue oysters; croaker with aubergine and white miso and coffee jus; lamb with a confit of peppers and crunchy durum wheat semolina or cherries in frosted almond milk… Polished concrete floors, varnished wooden tables, groovy music and happy diners depict the modern vibe.

Kaiseki
In the magical setting of an 18C bastide, the Kaiseki upholds Japanese gourmet dining traditions with its “Omakase – The Great Journey” tasting menu that gives the chefs carte blanche. Chefs Matthieu Dupuis Baumal and Kazunari Noda have pooled their skill and talent to create a genuine culinary voyage poised between France and Japan. The next-door brasserie, Le K, offers a varied, more affordable score.

La Petite Ferme
This swish new contemporary brasserie in the hands of Ronan Kernen, chef-owner of the Côté Cour, showcases dishes sourced from world cuisine and choice cuts of meat cooked over embers, spit-roasted or in a wood-fired oven. Even more delicious when shared with family and friends.
Aix-en-Provence - FRANCE

Les Inséparables
The Inseparables is the encounter between chef Christophe Bonanno (formerly of Le Crillon, Astrance, Laurent) and Mathieu Jégo, a born manager and food lover. Within a 1970s-inspired vintage décor, they play a culinary score tailored to modern palates. The generously dimensioned terrace is shaded by two ancient plane trees.

Licandro - Le Bistro
This small family business is run by chef Felipe Licandro, who honed his skills in some of France’s top establishments, and his wife Julie. The lunchtime chalkboard menu offers well-crafted, market-fresh fare; more extensive evening menu, but always in a traditional bistronomy spirit.

Âma Terra
Diners are faced with a dilemma in the restaurant of this magnificent hotel, for which Pierre Gagnaire designed the menu. 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. Chef Jean-Denis Le Bras cooks up gourmet cuisine with Provençal overtones and a backdrop of original and striking associations inspired by his mentor.
Aix-en-Provence - FRANCE

Le Art
In the kitchen of this magnificent 18C bastide, chef Matthieu Dupuis-Baumal serves boldly inventive dishes, in which Provençal notes meet subtle Japanese influences. The flavours are clear and always controlled, and each recipe brandishes a confident culinary personality. The setting is magical, complete with a magnificent terrace, and makes for a sumptuous backdrop for this firework display of flavours. The wonderful wine list includes a selection from the château.
Aix-en-Provence - FRANCE

Côté Cour
Aix’s exclusive Cours Mirabeau is the place to see and be seen! A pared-back decor of natural materials, (very) soft lighting, a sliding roof, a glamorous edge and lounge music set the distinctive scene created by former Top Chef contestant, Ronan Kernen. The names of the dishes on the menu reflect his unorthodox approach: lamb cooked two ways/‘my version’ of stuffed cabbage, ‘my version’ of Saint-Honoré…
