Cafe Van Gogh has capitalized on the fact that Van Gogh immortalized it in "Cafe de Nuit", but it nevertheless offered good and reasonably priced Provencal cuisine. In May, you can eat outdoors at night.
While eating there, a street performer came by and performed some fire-breathing. Silly me, I'd left the camera in the hotel, so I wasn't able to catch any of it on film. Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: Place du Forum

La Gueule du Loup on rue des Arenes is a small but excellent restaurant in old city center run by a family (couple) named Allard.
Well-prepared, thought out menu and good food with a personal touch.
Thanks again to the kind lady who is the concierge at Hotel Nord Pinus on the forum
for her recommendation and personally walking me down to this place.
Try the monkfish & squid in saffron or the filet of bull braised in red wine.
Good duck also.

Hotel Calendal has such a nice garden to take any of your meals or cafe/tea.
Always peaceful, ... definitely the reason to stay here is the garden.
Any meal (especially petite dejeuner) or a drink in the evening. Try a versinthe around 11:00 pm for a unique experience.
They bring you the glass, absinthe spoon, water and sugar cube for the whole ritual.

The maitre-Chef / owner is professional, proud & helpful, and the service / ambience is very personable as you would expect in such a small place.
The style of food is referred to as 'Bouchon Lyonnais' - which is supposed to mean (e.g. according to Wikipedia) - "a bouchon is a type of restaurant found in Lyon, France, that serves traditional Lyonnaise cuisine, such as sausages, duck pâté or roast pork."
I would define it as french 'home cookin' - Whatever, works for me .... all I know is I really thought the food was great.
The also have a really cool old cellar where they have parties and 'receptions.'
If you have time and are walking down by the forum, I recommend you definitely check this place out as a dinner possibility.
Update: they finally got a website ... if you get time check it out for more info, photos, and some history.
For an appertif, I started with a pastis;
then terrine cannard (duck pate) and a small entree with some good local sausage;
for main plat:
Emince de Volaille (sliced poultry in a delicious thick creme sauce), but the side dish of what was pommes gratin (excellent potatoes au gratin made from local cheeses) was amazing.
Fromage and chocolate mousse for dessert.
vin de la maison rouge of course - I have no class, I almost always drink reds, even with fish. Leave a Comment

A fine place for dinner - very homey, local, and 'family-style'
Just south of the Roman Arena, next to l'Hauture and Le Criquet, Restaurant l'Escaladou may be the best of the 3.
Tasty house wine, yummy menu a l'Provence, good service, long tables full of locals (no english here) and lots of good french / provencale food.
I really enjoyed dinner here and would return anytime.
A young lady (not a hustler) who by misfortune can neither hear nor speak will sweep quickly through the restaurant once a night, putting eccentric / novelty cigarette lighters with glowing leds on every table (only 3 Eu, and they are good quality), then pick them up quickly and leave. That is how she makes enough money to survive.
I bought one. She smiled (a genuine smile) and sweetly gave me the hand-signs for thanks & kindness, then walked out into the night, probably to another restaurant.
Restaurant l'Escaladou is my new Arles fave for everyday/good Provence cuisine just 50 meters from my hotel (Calendal). I'll never forget this place.
I remember having some soup de poissons, roti agneu (lamb chops), a couple good provencale side dishes, fromage, and a bottle of the house Cotes d'Rhone. Everything was delicious.

Excellent food just a street or two north of the Forum. All the locals in Arles cruise this avenue like sharks at 7pm to see what they are serving that evening.
My new, Arles, high-end favorite now that L'Olivier is closed.
Eat early out on the terrace at 19:30.... it fills up quickly.
During the early part of dinner, a couple of local 'musicians' crashed the terrace and started playing classical dinner music, all slightly off-key.
Everyone on the terrace was either trying not to laugh or pretending it wasn't happening, and it was actually quite funny. The bearded & slightly-strange violinist would make eye contact with the diners, nod and smile as he played (expecting a gratuity I suspect) making it even more like a situation comedy.
Sid Caesar himself could not have written & performed a more humorous bit.
After a couple of songs and a few heavy sighs from my fellow diners, our serenaders were finished and strolled up rue du Docteur Fanton, off to what I assume was another restaurant.
To me it was actually quite fun, and I would appreciate it even more next time, if nothing else to savor (along with my appetizer) the reactions of the lucky customers on the terrace.
Fois gras, Cotes de Veau, fromage,
& you can't go wrong with anything that is on the prix fixe menu.

Food here is very good. The hotel is excellent with nice suites and a helpful staff.
Beautiful interior as well.
I recommend Nord P for hotel and for meals.
Location is right on the forum, can be a little noisy (motos) early evenings fri & sat night during high season.
Seasonal menu keeps changing.
Order whatever is fresh, seasonal, recommended.
Another recommended place close by for lunch & dinner with buffet/smorgasboard and good plats is L'Affenage, (a "fireplace grill") at 4 rue Moliere. tel 0490960767 Leave a Comment Theme: FrenchPrice: US$21-30 » Currency ConverterComparison: more expensive than averageAddress: Place du ForumPhone: 04 90 93 44 44Directions: In Hotel Nord Pinus in the Forum.

I walked by this little place about 6 times before I gave in to it. After all, I can get this kind of food at home, so why go to Southern France for it?! That was my reasoning. but it is right around the corner from Hotel du Musee ( where I was staying ) & it is vegetarian....I'm glad I went!! It was great!!
Most of the tables are on a wooden deck just above the narrow street. Service was prompt & friendly. Even the other customers were friendly to me, all French people the evening I dined. An attractive place that I hope is there the next time I visit Arles.
I got a combination plate with all the classic dishes. It was well presented, fresh & very tastey. The young man put a little bowl of good fresh olives & a glass of water in front of me before I ordered, an appreciated touch.

Embargo Cafe sits on the second "tier" above Boulevard de Lices, where Market Day happens every Wednesday and Saturday in Arles.
I bought quail roti and a slice of roast pork from a saturday/"Market Day" street vendor, then walked up and around to the entrance off Lices. They let me in with my fresh market day bag lunch, and let me sit on the terrace with some wine and later espresso, while I ate the fresh roasted quail and pork. With the view, it was a very nice experience.
Don't know, ate market day roti. But the wine and espresso were good, and the service and view were excellent.

Delicious roasted quail on a spit fresh from the market, along with a fresh slice of roast pork from same vendor, cut from the roast as I stood there.
Thanks to the proprietor for letting me enjoy his terrace. Leave a Comment
