La Farigoulette sur Fayence

What a surprise it was for us on the evening of January 2nd, 2026… We know the region quite well, but La Farigoulette was the surprise of 2026. We're (somewhat) used to highly rated restaurants during our travels, including a few Michelin-starred ones, but this was a real surprise. The cuisine exceeded our expectations and even (in our opinion) surpassed the quality of some 1-star establishments: The welcome was fantastic; you could feel the joy of the owner as she greeted us. The waiter was top-notch, explaining the dishes and meats with impeccable efficiency. In the kitchen, the scent of thyme fills the air. Returning from the market, like an evening of plunder, Leeks, potatoes, and onions strung together are piled haphazardly alongside the heavy meats. The chef and his wife work wonders: scrambled eggs with truffles, a marvelous pâté en croûte with its onion compote, beautiful, perfectly roasted scallops, magnificent ratatouille and gratin, Wagyu beef cooked to near-perfect precision, portions fit for a king, chocolate-peanut butter ganache tarts, all washed down with a pitcher of Château Roubine and… ice-cold sparkling water 😊 In short, as you've probably gathered, come to Fayence, climb to the top of the magnificent village, parking is easy, and you'll reach the heart of fine dining in a relaxed atmosphere. We left happy and reputable 😊

Exceptional cuisine: creative, generous, and delicious!! Incredible ribeye steak; I highly recommend the Black Pearl!! I don't often eat meat, but this is haute cuisine!! And it's served with excellent ratatouille and gratin dauphinois!! The razor clams with parsley sauce as a starter are incredibly delicious!! The best I've ever had!! Their homemade dried and seasoned meats are also delicious! We were welcomed with an amuse-bouche worthy of a fine dining establishment: pea velouté with truffle that day! The food is truly much better than some Michelin-starred restaurants, and I mean it! And the staff is so welcoming!! The signature cocktails are also delicious!! Bravo to this passionate couple! If I could give 10 stars!!! Can't wait to come back soon for another wonderful meal 🙏🏻😊 Thank you ❤️

Very good address. We had a great time!

Very good meal, atmosphere, comfortable everything

Our first time! An excellent meal from start to finish. Fabulous taste and warm service. 👍🏻👍🏻 We will definitely be back.

A delightful discovery tucked away in a Provençal village alley. The warm atmosphere and the aesthetic presentation of the dishes are matched only by their delicate and balanced flavors.

Excellent restaurant; authentic and high-quality products are guaranteed. Special mention for the rib-eye steaks.

We had already come here for lunch one day during the summer season, on the terrace. We had fond memories (despite the influx of tourists), which is why we returned this evening. The meal was excellent, with delicious dishes, a magnificent setting with stone walls, the decor suited the location with beautiful furniture, beautiful quality tableware, and a waiter, Eric, who was attentive, always with a kind word and humor. We met the chef, a charming and cheerful woman with whom we were able to chat for a while after the service. She and her husband create simple but delicious dishes. You'll get your money's worth. It's truly a great restaurant with excellent value for money. I recommend, indeed I insist, that you check out this beautiful establishment.

A wonderful experience! Excellent meat and perfectly cooked. The dishes are beautifully presented and very balanced. The service is smooth and friendly. A great place to eat.

We were fortunate enough to have lunch at this restaurant and it didn’t disappoint. The quality of the food and service was excellent. Definitely recommend this place 100% We came for a lunch and left with an experience 👏👏👏 We will be back, well done 👍👍👍
