La Mere Germaine

A delicious shop with a nice environment and good service.

Very fine restaurant. Great setting, lovely view, tasteful modern interior. Ask for window seat if possible. Food was delicious. Well constructed courses, intentional flavours, clear devotion to representing seasonal and regional ingredients. Flow of dishes was seamless without losing the uniqueness of each one. Service was outstanding. The waitstaff is easily at 2 star level, and paid attention to details which usually only exist at the 3 star level. Overall, this restaurant is well deserving of its recent accolades, and is outperforming at the current price point. Do not hesitate to book if possible.

Made of very fresh local ingredients, the food was very well cooked and presented - best of all, not overly innovative, and superbly scrumptious! While there are only set menus for dinner, quite a number of the dishes from the set menus can actually be ordered as à la carte, if one is for any reason not prepared to have a big dinner in any given evening. Even better, it is not particularly uptight for a Michelin one-star restaurant, and is suitably relaxing and enjoyable in the wine region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The sommelier, of Mauritius origin, is extremely amiable and knowledgeable, and conversations with him are simply pleasurable.

Everything was more than delicious. We would recommand this resto to all our friends and family. It’s an escape from reality for a couple of hours!

Food was absolutely delicious, from the very tasty tomato starter to the langoustine, the perfectly cooked turbot et the incredible desert
