Au Chineur sur L'Isle-Sur-La-Sorgue

Pleasant welcome - fast and professional service - good portions and well-presented dishes

Nice restaurant with a great atmosphere. We booked in the morning for 9 people and were seated upstairs in a small room with a charming vintage decor overlooking the Sorgue River. Very unique... From the moment we arrived until we left, everything was perfect (the portions were very generous, the service impeccable and quick). Our waitress was incredibly attentive, even offering play kitchens for the children. 👍👍 They were kept very entertained... The only slight issue was that it was busy and there was only one restroom on each floor (at least, that's all I saw...😏), but it wasn't a big deal, just something to improve... Thanks again to the whole team for a lovely time, I highly recommend it...

Very, very good, perfect service

The food was OK. It's particularly pleasant on the terrace when the weather is nice.

Following my previous review, I would like to provide an update. The manager of the establishment took the time to contact me personally to apologize for our negative experience. She very kindly offered to let us return so we wouldn't be left with such a bad impression. We accepted and went back. This time, we received a very warm welcome and the service was impeccable. This allowed us to realize that our first visit, during the first warm days and when the managers were absent, did not reflect the true nature of the establishment. The servers had clearly meant well by welcoming a large number of customers, but the organization had been overwhelmed. On our second visit, we arrived earlier in the service, ordered a drink and a main course, and the meal was indeed offered to us on the house as promised. We ate very well and had a very pleasant time. We sincerely thank the manager for this gesture of goodwill and for her professionalism. This kind of attention is unfortunately becoming quite rare these days and deserves to be highlighted. Thank you for taking the time to listen to us and for wanting to improve your customers' experience. We didn't leave on a bad note and we will gladly return. ------------------- It's difficult to judge our experience because there wasn't one! We had a reservation at 1:15 pm on Sunday, February 22nd. The first hint of winter sunshine, the streets were packed and the terraces were full! We arrived at the restaurant, no one came to greet us. I had to tell two different people that we had a reservation for two before we were seated. It was very busy, and I understood and guessed that we would be late eating, but that didn't matter, it was Sunday, we weren't in a hurry. We were immediately given the menu, cutlery, and a glass of water. After 45 long minutes, no one had come to see us, not even to offer us a drink or take our order. I was understanding up to that point, but I became annoyed when my husband noticed that people had just been seated by the canal, their aperitifs were being served, and their orders were being taken! We decided to leave the restaurant around 2:30 pm, hungry! We told a waiter (many of them were just wasting time) that we were vacating the table because no one had attended to us after an hour and fifteen minutes. He simply nodded and left! That was our experience, what a shame...

Very friendly welcome. Efficient and smiling servers. Excellent food. Very good value for money. Also tried the brunch: excellent selection.

A lovely little spot for a snack; whether it's ice cream or something hot, it's delicious. The setting on the banks of the Sorgue adds to its charm. Highly recommended!

One Sunday, while strolling through L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, we stopped for lunch at this restaurant. We received a very warm welcome from the manager, who explained that they no longer take reservations after 1 p.m. and that we would have to wait a little while. Fifteen minutes later, we had a table. The set menu—starter, main course, and dessert—was very affordable, good value for money, and the service was impeccable. All of this was served with a smile on the banks of the Sorgue River—what more could you ask for?

We had booked, received a warm welcome, quick service, and quality food. I recommend it.

Excellent cuisine and great service in a bistro atmosphere. Highly recommended.
