Naruto was there for me when I most needed a place like this to be there and they did it without…read moreeven knowing how important they were because they are naturally an excellent restaurant. Most of my stay in Aix-en-Provence I was sick with a severe case of food poisoning. It lasted about 10 days before I was finally able to get a doctor to prescribe an antibiotic. Naruto was there because they make an excellent ramen. I highly recommend ordering any of them. They are on the mark authentic to what you can get in Japan. While I wasn't able to try any of their other dishes, I highly suspect they are on par with their ramen as Naruto is always packed. From the moment they open, all the tables are filled with customers. It doesn't matter what day of the week nor time of day. They are busy, busy, busy. The owner is a fun character, who enjoys being silly. He clearly takes preparing his meals seriously though. Check out his business cards. They will make you smile. He's something of a local celebrity. And you can see this is true fore he has that certain charisma that draws you into his world.

The cute restaurant spills out onto the streets to offer a unique spin to Japanese food…read more I ordered takoyaki set, which came with today's soup, rice ball, and seasonal salad. Today's soup of the day was "curry soup," which was interesting, since Japanese curry isn't soup. It was basically watered down curry with lots of vegetables. The rice ball had the option of fish, vegetable, and maybe a meat? The rice had seasoning on it. (It was cold when I got it, so I dunked the rice into the "curry soup" to make it into curry.) The seasonal salad was very interesting as well. I had to keep on looking down at the salad as I ate it, because it didn't taste at all like what I expected. Takoyaki was what you'd expect from takoyaki. Very wet inside though, so if you aren't a fan of wet batter texture, is skip it. We also ordered ramen, which wasn't on the menu. It was also interesting, because it looked like shoyu ramen, but it had a very deep flavor. And the pork didn't seem like chashu. Overall, I accept the tastes as a "spin" on Japanese food that I've grown up with, and enjoyed them.

L'Apsara delivers delicious classic dishes in both traditions. My husband ordered the large portion Bo Bun and I had the chicken Pad Thai noodles. Both dishes were served with perfectly cooked noodles and quality ingredients, spiced just right. However, the highlight was our shared entree, the summer rolls (Les roulettes printemps), topped with chopped peanuts and served with a delicate sweet sour spicy vinegar dipping sauce. These three dishes along with a carafe of chilled rose totaled only 36 euros! Great, friendly service, too. Highly recommended.

At first, I didn't have high expectations about Asian restaurants in a touristy town in France…read more When my airbnb host told us that this was the BEST Asian restaurant, I didn't take it seriously. I had traveled in France and Barcelona for almost two weeks by then, and I had been craving for Korean--but not an option--or any spicy Asian foods. This restaurant IS amazing! I have to say that the food that we had was better than most Asian restaurants anywhere in the US or other cities. The fresh summer roll was excellent and the wok dishes (beef and seafood) were perfect! While we were in Arles for three nights, we went back to this restaurant every single day. The staff was very kind, but if you go there for dinner, the service might be slow.
