Café du Temps sur Aix-En-Provence

21/02/2026: It's simply perfect! There are still restaurants that actually cook. Really. This is one of them—and that makes all the difference. Everything is cooked on-site, using carefully selected fresh produce from French and local producers. This commitment to authenticity is evident in every dish: the flavors are bold, the cooking precise, the combinations subtle without ever being showy. The menu, intentionally concise—three appetizers, three main courses, three desserts—reflects genuine confidence. The confidence of a chef who prioritizes mastery over abundance. Each dish is thoughtful, balanced, and refined with precision. The wine list also deserves attention: a discerning and interesting selection, accompanied by expert advice that demonstrates real knowledge and impeccable taste. You feel guided, never steered. The setting is an integral part of the experience. Contemporary lighting chosen with discernment, a hushed atmosphere, and the natural intimacy of the space. It's perfect for a romantic dinner or a meal with friends. And for those who cherish intimate moments: the table tucked away in the cellar is a true gem, perfect for a private, almost intimate dinner. The prices—around €25 to €30 per dish—perfectly reflect the quality of the cuisine. An elegant, genuine address, best shared.

15/01/2026: This little restaurant is a gem. A simple yet exquisitely executed menu, a wine cellar brimming with connoisseurs, and discreet service. At lunchtime, scallops with truffles as a starter, sweetbreads and veal fillet with truffles as a main course. Paired with a fine 2020 white wine from Pas de l'Escalette. A delightful find just steps from Aix's town hall.
