Restaurant de Tadao Ando — Restaurant in Aix-en-Provence

We had a wonderful experience in the Tadao Ando Restaurant at Château La Coste.

The waiters were very friendly and fast. They took our orders promptly and also served quickly.

As an appetizer we had the beets with goat cheese. It was a beautiful dish, the beets were fresh and the cheese was very tasty. Definitely recommended!!!

We had three main dishes:

1. Seabass served on fresh spinach and tomatoes The fish was super fresh and cooked to perfection. The combination of fresh spinach with sweet cherry tomatoes was to die for! They were so sweet they almost tasted like candy. Definitely recommended!!!

2. Penne Pasta with mixed vegetables This dish was very easy, but super delicious! The pasta was housemade and the vegetables were fresh. Also recommendable!!!

3. Lamb cutlets with gravy, mushrooms and white beans in tomato sauce. This dish was actually a big disappointment. Comparing this to the other dishes we had. The quality of the lamb was great, but there was way too much fat on the side. Fat is good, especially for lamb, which gives it flavor, but in this case less would have been more. The mushrooms were fine, but a little bit over salted. The only good thing about this dish were the white beans in tomato sauce. They were absolutely delicious!

As a dessert we shared the Cafe Gourmand and the rice pudding. The Cafe Gourmand was an espresso with some small desserts like a tiramisu, a macaron etc. Very nice! The rice pudding was awesome! The rice had a nice texture and the raspberries finished it off just perfect.

Although the lamb was just marginal and frankly disappointing, everything else was absolutely fantastic. I can only recommend...

Restaurant de Tacos Ando in Le Puy-Sainte-Réparade is a great place that offers a delightful dining experience. The minimalist decor creates a simple yet inviting ambiance, allowing the beauty of the surrounding area to take center stage. Situated next to a stunning fountain, the setting is serene and picturesque, making it an ideal spot for a relaxed meal.

The food here is pretty good. We ordered the prawn salad and grilled sea bass, and both dishes were absolutely wonderful—fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The prawn salad was light yet bursting with vibrant flavors, while the sea bass was perfectly grilled, tender, and seasoned just right. The quality of the ingredients really shines through in every bite.

This is our second visit this year, and once again, we left thoroughly impressed. Restaurant de Tacos Ando has definitely earned a spot on our must-visit list whenever we are in France. If you’re looking for a place that combines delicious food with a beautiful setting, this restaurant is an excellent choice....

Dining at the Tadao Ando Restaurant at Château La Coste was an exceptional experience. Nestled within the stunning vineyard, this restaurant is an architectural masterpiece by Tadao Ando.

The setting is breathtaking, with minimalist design and floor-to-ceiling windows offering panoramic views of Provence. I had lunch outside by the water, perfectly shaded by the building’s architecture.

The menu features fresh, locally sourced ingredients, skillfully prepared. A standout dish was the fillet of sea bass a la plancha, an exquisite blend of flavors and textures. We enjoyed the Grand Vin Blanc 2022, which perfectly complemented the meal.

Service was impeccable, with attentive and knowledgeable staff enhancing the dining experience.

If you’re visiting Château La Coste, the Tadao Ando Restaurant is a must. It’s a perfect blend of culinary excellence, architectural beauty, and serene surroundings. A truly...
