Michelin starred and lovely, Le Clos de la Violette restaurant in Aix-en-Provence, France is indisputably the best restaurant in Aix.

Located just north of the old city on a residential road, Le Clos de la Violette is easy to miss if you aren’t careful to look for it. But that just adds to the cache of the amazing culinary experience.

Start your meal with a glass of Champagne and amuse bouches on the terrace.

Follow the bubbly with one of several tasting menus, which you can enjoy from a garden-front table in the dining room. On offer are delicious plates of duck, anchovies, foie gras, and much more.

Finish off your meal at Le Clos de la Violette with dessert and petit fours if you still have room after all you’ve eaten. Don’t forget to enjoy the views of the garden and savor every sip of the wine you ordered from the massive and globally sourced wine list.

A meal at Le Clos de la Violette in Aix isn’t inexpensive, but if you want to have one memorable lunch or dinner while you’re in town, this should definitely be it!
