L'Escaladou

Another winner discovered thanks to TheFork (this is becoming a nightly habit!). Tremendous value-for-money with more than fair prices matched with large portions. But large portions by themselves means little if the cuisine was not good. Happily, not the case here. Wonderful, homestyle-like cooking, friendly attentive service and a great, satisfying, filling meal.

The bouillabaise and the grand aioli were spectacular. Service was slow because the place is so popular staff is running all the time. Crowded but wonderful.

Brilliant restaurant with superb food. Had slow cooked beef in a wine and stock sauce served with rice. It was delicious. A very nice local wine from Arles to complement the dish. Highly recommended with friendly and efficient service.

We just spent 6 days around Provence and the food was great, but this was our absolute favorite spot. The food and wine were amazing and they had all of our favorites (escargot and duck among others) and the best creme brulee I've had. The atmosphere was charming and authentic. I can't wait to return.

This charming Arles restaurant is a real find. Every dish is a "Wow!". We had the Crispy Goat Cheese & Fig Jam appetizer which is served with salad and is a generous portion for two. For the main course, I had Lamb Shank which was very tender with a delicate gravy, served with an array of perfectly cooked vegetables. My companion had the Petite Boulliabaise which was far from petite! For dessert we shared the best Creme Brulee I've ever had and I have been coming to France for many years. It was served with a unique homemade vanilla ice cream. Our bill for 84E was very reasonable for the quality of the food, service and ambience. There are less expensive restaurants in Arles but none as enjoyable
