Came for lunch outside near the fountain. It was lovely to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine in…read moreearly spring. The backdrop is amazing. The little archway and fountain are beautiful, too. There was one other couple, but I'm sure it gets much more crowded during the summer. I ordered the special for the day which was salmon. It was very Asian-inspired--it had little bok choy, and daikon and was served in a nice broth. The salmon was cooked perfectly. And it. was really, really delicious. I also ordered a side of artichoke. It was drizzled with pesto and pine nuts. Also very good. I sampled a couple of their desserts.... yep, you guessed it, they were delicious. The waiter guy helping us was very friendly and his English was good. We had still water which came out of the fountain and a carafe of rosé. Definitely a nice meal to have if you find yourself in town.

Only went to the restaurant which I think a lot of people do. It was amazing. They change the menu…read moreby seasons but we tried just about everything in the fall menu and it was so delicious. The salad and duck breast was my favorite.

Serious failings on nearly all accounts at the Clubhouse Les Caroubiers restaurant at the Terre…read moreBlanche Hotel.The waiter was ok to start. The starters were brought out and 2/3 were the wrong item. This was not a problem and we asked them to be corrected. The main courses came out and they were ALL incorrect, again. The waiter then rudely addressed a member of our party saying the item they ordered wasn't available after trying to give them the wrong item, this was 40 minutes after we had ordered the item. After a few excuses from the waiter the manager was sent over. The manager in the suit was extremely rude and raised his voice with the member of the party who was given the wrong food twice without apology. There were inconsistent and inadequate excuses given by different members of staff. Our waiter stopped serving our table for the rest of the evening we were not addressed by our waiter or the manager. We were served by a lovely young woman did a good job and was left to clean up the mess, thank you to her for the good service The sommelier in the suit was lovely and gave great wine recommendations, he should be promoted. Overall this experience missed the mark. There was no apology and no effort to make the situation right. 0 stars.

We have stayed here twice over the years. It's a perfect spot to stay if you're visiting the Gorge…read moredu Verdon. The hotel is NOT fancy. In fact, it's quite rustic. However,the people who work here are super nice and the hotel restaurant serves up delicious French country cooking. I don't recall hearing any of the staff speak English, however. I would not hesitate to stay here again. It's the perfect spot for hikers and anyone else who doesn't need luxury accommodations.

Sophisticated Cuisine in a Peaceful Setting…read more Le Clos Pierrepont is located 10 miles North of Draguignan, near the very scenic village of Chateaudouble. You must go walk the narrow streets of Chateaudouble before or after your meal at Le Clos! The restaurant is set in a nice older house recently renovated; there is also a hotel but I have not checked the rooms. The cuisine is very sophisticated yet quite approachable: the food is recognizable and the prices adequate. We sat outside on what has been the hottest day of the year so far - or at least it seemed to be. There was a pleasant breeze that made it comfortable. We had drinks first while we perused the menu. There is a good choice including 4 prix fixe menus ranging from 30 to 75 Euros. The wine list is extensive with selections from reasonable to expensive. Two of us chose the Menu Saveur at 42 Euros while the 3rd guest went with a single entrée, in that case the Ris de Veau. We were all offered a mise en bouche (an oyster with meat). The ris de veau was excellent (I know: I stole a piece from my wife's plate). For appetizers, the menu offered a tomatoe-based dish which was original and tasty or a Porcelet, also excellent. The main dishes were the fish (Maigre) served in filet in a delicious sauce and the duck in a blackcurrant reduction. Both were quite tasty and unique though the duck was a bit firm. The Menu Saveur included all three desserts - for each person. See photo. We had a bottle of Rose - Chateau des Sarrins which was very smooth. The service was good and professional, a bit on the slow side but not frustratingly so. Overall, it was probably the best meal we have had so far during this trip. We will be back.
