Le Gavroche sur Briancon

14/02/2026: Oh my goodness... this is unbelievable! It's so frustrating not having it right near us. My husband and I absolutely love Massena Café in Marseille's Place Castellane, and frankly, it's a really clean restaurant with good ingredients and excellent dishes. My husband especially loves the Angus beef stew there; it's absolutely divine, so he never wants to go anywhere else. Here at the foot of the gargoyle, we hadn't made a reservation because our priority was booking for tonight, Valentine's Day. We were just looking for a place to eat last night and stumbled upon this wonderful spot. The welcome was impeccable and warm, the decor is beautiful and typical of the region, the cleanliness is spotless, and the food... it's impossible not to love it. So, this is the first time my husband has told me the meat is even better than at Massena Café, and yet until now, that was his go-to place. I had the delicious onion soup, and my husband opted for a Marseilles-style ribeye steak with homemade fries and a homemade pavlova for dessert—it was amazing. The waitress is so sweet, and the owner truly has a passion for cooking and a warm, friendly personality. I highly recommend this place. The ingredients are fresh and locally sourced.
