Chateau D'arpaillargues Le Marie D'agoult

As much as I would like to love that restaurant, I simply can’t. We had dinner, my wife and I, two nights in a row. Staff is extremely friendly but not well trained/ experienced. That’s ok though. Food choices are extremely limited and expensive. You can sense that the Chef is trying his best and it’s almost there, but honestly 29 Euros for a pasta risotto with 30 grams of lobster on top is a bit tacky. We loved the settings and we love Arpaillargues-et-Aureillac. We just felt that we were paying for something we didn’t quite get.

This was one of our favourite meals through our whole journey from Lyon through Ardeche and Uzes, around Luberon and up to Annecy. Perhaps more rustic than a Michelin star type of place, but I preferred it. Far less presumption for rival quality. Prices are good considering the quality of the food. Each dish was a pleasurable discovery, for the adults as well as for the children. And the hostess, a native from Uzes, was absolutely delightful. An all-around genuine experience with no false pretensions.

The fig tree in this chateau's courtyard is the centrepiece to a regal setting with a gentle and refined time-brushed patine. The service, and the staff's professionalisme and amiability follow suit. To me, this place is purely magical. Nothing should change and certainly not any renovation should come to destroy the whispered beauty and romanticism of the ensemble (accommodation, bar, restuarant. poolside

First the positives; Beautiful setting with friendly and charming staff..I'm afraid the chef concentrates on presentation at the expense of flavour. Fussy details such as wrapping foie gras in Serrano ham add nothing to the enjoyment. We don't expect large portions in a fine restaurant but the lamb ,while delicious,,was tiny.Good cuisine is about more than painting pretty pictures.

Uzes is an AMAZING city. If you are anywhere close, make a stopover. It is well worth it. At the Chateau we had a lovely dinner and it was great learning more about the hotel/spot in general!
