L'Escale des Vins

Maybe today was an off day for this restaurant. What a charming sunny day at a near full patio. Awesome! We ordered wine, salad, beef, and salmon. Wine arrived. About 40 minutes later, no tables we’re getting their food. None. Even tables asking for ice or a drink were getting nothing even after asking repeatedly. Service? Nowhere! Locals were upset. People started to leave. We didn’t complain not wanting to be “those” people but our neighbouring tables (locals) were appalled on our behalf and told them so. We speak French so I quietly appreciated their intervention. About an hour later when the starter/salad arrived it was delicious. About another half hour later our mains arrived and were also delicious. Service was so atrocious locals were expressing to one another how disappointed and dissatisfied they were. I cannot recommend this restaurant even though the food we eventually got was quite nice.

We did a bike tour around the Abbaye du Silvacane on a Sunday. All restaurant in Lambesc were closed...and someone recommended us L'escale des Vins. And was a perfect choice. Although we arrived late(for french lunch hours) we managed to get a table and to be served a delicious lunch. Good wine choices by the glass also. Had a good Chardonnay and a rouge from Languedoc with the steak. Nice wine glasses(much better that many restaurants in Aix-en-Provence), and very nice owner and staff. Totally recommended.

Very friendly, limited choice but very tasty. Original grill. We arrived rather late, but no problem for the owner.

Good service, great environment indoors and out. They have a great shaded outdoor terrace if weather permits.
