It's a very good French restaurant. Firstly, I can pronounce his name without shame.
His food is great and people are so nice and lovely.
And last but not the least, the ice creams are awesome!

Loacted right in the historic center of Avignon, this is a "fusion" restaurant based on Cuisine Provencale with a touch of exotic flavours and a lot of creativity.
The atmosphere is cosy with modern paintings on the walls by a local painter and prices are reasonable.

Nestled on a side street in the shadow of the Papal Palace, La Vache a Carreaux could justly claim to be one of the finest restaurants in Provence, a region renowned for its cuisine. Simply yet quirkily decorated and with a homely feel added to by the extremely friendly and attentive service, La Vache a Carreaux offers a wonderful range of local dishes and a fantastic wine list to accompany it. A truly memorable dining experience, the food is of the highest quality (the succulent salmon was cooked to absolute perfection) and every effort is made to ensure your satisfaction. Its moderate pricing is truly fantastic value for what you get.

Terre de Saveur is a great little restaurant that also does veggie food - not very common in France!
Eat real Provencal food at 'La Fourchetten', 17 rue Racine, that, after all, is why you came here!
The two of us spent £34 for 3 courses including Kir aperitifs, a carafe of house wine and complimentary digestives - exceptional value for one of the best meals we have ever had.
Beautiful food described and cooked with love said the English-speaking guys who wooed us through the evening. We shared a platter of 3 cold soups: - Gaspacho - crème de petits pois à la menthe - Soupe de melon aux copeaux de jambon cru. This was followed by
Carpaccio de bœuf, vinaigrette de tomate et gingembre confit, glace Wasabi and completed by a crumble aux fruits rouges et pommes, coulis banana. If you can appreciate their love of food and artistic flair then go but it is not for the steak and frites brigade.

Surely the best restaurant in Avignon. A couple of set menus at around 65€, including the famous tomatoes in every course, plus a 'surprise' menu for around 115€ - one of the highest quality meals I've ever eaten. An ideal place for a very special meal.
Christian Etienne, 10 rue de Mons, Avignon. 04 90 86 16 50.
An excellent restaurant, in a very upmarket hotel. High quality food, with two set menus apart from the à la carte.
Beware: the 33€ menu is only available at lunch (and then not on what has been charmingly mistranslated as 'off days', ie public holidays). Otherwise, the menu costs 105€, but is well worth the price.
A delightful garden for eating outside, looking at the back of the Palais des Papes. Must book.
La Mirande, 4 place de la Mirande, Avignon. 04 90 14 20 20.
You must try the athmospheric and much loved La Banasterie Guesthouse.
It is located slap bang in the centre of the maze like citadel, but on a quiet side street and with excellent restaurants within a one-minute walk.
Jean-Michel and Francoise make the ancient house terribly atmospheric with fairy lights and by lighting the stairs and halls by candlelight at night.
If you would like a home from home, with an authentic french atmosphere, I couldn’t recommend this place more highly!
Restaurant la Treille is a superb restaurant set on a small islet on the River Rhone
Chemin de l'Ile Piot, 84000
After visiting the Palais des Papes and various other architectural and natural delights, where better to dine than in a restaurant that is truly fit for a Pope at 'Christian Etienne'. It's perfect intimate environment with extravagant decor will provide a truly unforgettable night to remember, but it's raison d'être is to be the very finest eating experience that every connoisseur should sample on at least one (although preferably more) occasion during his or her life, something it does with consummate ease.
10 rue de Mons
The restaurant Compagnie des Comptoirs is located in a beautiful, calm 14th century cloister on Rue J Vernet. The cooking, by the Michelin starred Pourcel brothers reflects the real southern French style "les sauveurs de Sud" full of flavour and local ingredients, influenced by North Africa. Tables are placed in the palm fringed courtyard, or you can eat in the cool of the stone dining room. The cocktail bar stays open late (for France), with white leather and glass, and is full of the young, beautiful and well-heeled of Avignon.
rue Joseph Vernet
When visiting Avignon be sure to hire a car and explore the Vacluse, the excellent markets of L'isle sur La sorgue, and the pretty village of Bonnieux. The place to eat for a wonderful meal, in a building having that special ambiance you only find in small french restaurans is the Restaurant De La Gare Bonnieux, just off the RN 100.
The Vacluse
It is in the Cardinalice Room adorned by a Brussels tapestry and under Renaissance ceiling that you will experience culinary art. The food is absolutely amazing. Chocolate mousse and teas are complimentary. Menus from €35.
4 place de la Mirande
Try La Treille, a superb restaurant set on a small islet on the River Rhone.
A must for every visitor is the Palais des Papes - truly spectacular. But also check out the great restaurants and wine bars in the square, the quality is generally very high - a cheap favourite is La Grande Brasserie.
Travel to Avignon from Paris by TGV at super, quiet speeds and watch the beautiful French countryside dramatically pass by your window from the upper tier of the train. Avignon station is clean, modern and user friendly and only a short hop from the centre of the fascinating, walled city of Avignon itself. Go when the festival is in full swing. It's like Edinburgh, but younger, livlier and warmer. Eat at the Christian Etienne and enjoy the adventure of eating a 10 course meal with each course having tomato as the theme. Even the ice cream!

After visiting the Palais des Papes and various other architectural and natural delights, where better than to dine in a restaurant that is truly fit for a pope - Christian Etienne.
The perfect, intimate environment, complete with extravagant decor, will provide a night to remember. But the restaurant's raison d'être is to provide a fine eating experience that any connoisseur worth his salt should sample at least once - although preferably more often. This it does with consummate ease.
