Les Templiers — Restaurant in Draguignan

Amazing restaurant, superb food, 100% natural as explained to us. Walking into it was walking into a great kitchen, smells, mouth watering, spices in the air in an incredible environment. We went for dinner around 8:30, our table was beautiful set under a red aurora of light with some nice techno emitting from somewhere else around us. The staff were great helped us understand French and what exactly the ride was going to be. Most importantly the owner an entrepreneur who cooked all this amazing food took the time to chat with us about the food and also cooked up an incredible children’s menu after listening to my kids. She oozed energy, positive and influential, talking about dishes and spices, just making us look forward to an amazing evening. Thanks for a great evening. This is a restaurant that one should visit for the complete ride from its ambiance to its service to most...

It's usually topped with tomato and basil, but a restaurant can of course make up their own, with the details spelled out. What I received was exactly what I'd wish i could get at a winter train station platform. Multiple melted cheeses and bechamel (?), topped with a credible salsa verde (?). A fine passata shmear above a very light-weight toast. As food it was..a lot...as simply put "bruschetta"..yeah, nah. The chevre salad was really good snd this place is outwardly friendly from kitchen hand to owner and all points between. Keen to try...

Arrived without a reservation and got table for two for Sunday lunch. Had by far the best tasting coucous ever. The quantities of meat and vegetables were very generous. The owner and staff gave us a real warm welcome. Service was speedy and efficient with the ambience being cosy. We just about had space left for mint tea and mouth watering...
