Christophe Bacquié Hôtel Du Castellet

Do you like Special Surprises? This fine Michelin Three-Star restaurant is off the beaten path for most non-European tourists. This fact creates a nice advantage. They have some truly fabulous burgundies that are incredibly well-priced compared not only to other high-end restaurants, but to retail...offering prices! I almost hate to spill the beans because wine-lovers may make a bee-line here, but sorry, I’ve done it. Being able to purchase a great bottle of wine at a fair price to enjoy with superb food is what destination dining is all about. We dined here two nights and enjoyed superb bottles of La Tache and Rousseau Clos St. Jacques that were not just marvelous, but marvelously well pric...

We ate the seafood menu with wine pairing as lunch as a family. There were several issues; Dishes were presented with no regard to allergy clearly stated at the beginning of the meal. Luckily found out before eating and dishes were replaced. Wine...pairings were wrong as wine was presented as perfect match for langoustini while dish was sea urchin. Waiters Tried to collect dishes in a rush before we had chance to finish the food Raspberry desert had several black hairs in both plates. One plate was replaced but when asked for a different dish it was refused. For a euro lunch in a Michelin star restaurant the combination of these mistakes is simply not acceptable and begs the question whether...

Three stars in the Michelin means we expect the highest possible standard. The food was very good but we expected more creativity. for the menu was not expensive. Amuses were excellent, fish slightly overdone, meat very good but lacked creativity, dessert was creative. However,...the wine list ruined our experience: for the cheapest glass of champagne is absurd. Worse was for a bottle of Provencal wine that is available in every supermarket for The Cote-Rotie we ordered was just a cheap village wine at a silly price. I have no problem with a mark-up but the winelist had too many cheap wines at ridiculous prices. To be fair, the sommelier did change the Cote Rotie. Given the three stars in th...

Great experience overall. We start by having cocktails at the bar with an astonishing view on the garden then moved to the restaurant for the showtime! That's exactly what I love about Michelin Stars Restaurants, the perfection of the show, because of course we're...not paying this big amount of money just to eat food. Obviously the food was amazing, my favorites was the signature dish Aïoli Moderne with the sabayon who was unbelievable and the pigeon. Service was perfect. The only bads points goes to the veal who was little under the other dishes and the dessert with tomatoes, olives and fennel that I didn't really like but it was original though.

Hotel du Castellet is not in the downtown of Le Castellet, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence and is located beside of the airport of Le Castelett and the Paul Ricard Circuit. It is well-organized hotel with pools and spa, and very gorgeous. What's more, It also has hole...golf course in the site of the hotel. Restaurant Christoph Baquie is the gastronomic restaurant of the hotel. We selected “Au Fil des Années, Over the years” and I ordered wine paring, too. They served many and different amuse-bouche. Of course, they were tasty. We enjoyed local vegetables, Mediterranean octopus, and pigeon. They prepared good local wines, which were delightful for me.

this was our first visit to the restaurant and our expectations were high regarding the three michelin stars. we took the opportunity to change the table we were given to the one to the far left in the restaurant. atmosphere was quiet and clean (the...restaurant was not full that evening). service was throughout professional and friendly. food was nice bit not exceptional as others. nevertheless a joyful evening.

Very friendly reception by the satff, excellent service, present but not .obnoxious. Our many course lunch was just exraodinary with very refined flavors, beautifully dressed dishes and a very elaborate gradation of wines by the glass. We will definitely be back. The only negative point...compared to other similar restaurants is that the chef did not come to the tables and have a few words with his clients.
