I hadn't been back to Pinot Provence for a couple of years because the stuffy but flavorless overpriced Napoleons of everything produced by the previous chef just turned me off. Last night I returned with a friend to give "Chef Lulu" and staff a chance to win me back and they most definitely succeeded. The food was straight forward, fresh... more

Grab a table on the covered patio at this hidden gem and be transported to another time, when meals were eaten slowly and food was not just a gargantuan heap of tasteless nothing. Nobody rushes at Pinot Provence and the portion sizes are what they should be. You savor every bite of their thoughtful and elaborate food. Go during lunch,... more

“Hi. I’m Lulu. Would you like to order from the menu or may I cook for you this evening?” Our intention in going to Pinot Provence this last Thursday evening was to eat their summer special, three courses of the specialties of Provence.

This place is amazing! The food was delicious, i had the veal cheeks with polenta and snap peas. It was rich and satisfying. My date had the filet mignon with cipollini onions and mash potato. We were both more than thrilled with the food. To top it all off, there was no corkage fee. Thee best Valentines Day meal ever!!!! more

We were promptly brought bread (excellent crusty french bread and soft, tasty olive bread) and water. Our server, Alfonso, described the soup of the day, and proceeded to describe the menu to us. My companion ordered the soup, a creamed carrot/cauliflower... more

Our family celebrated this year's Mother's Day at Pinot Provence. While the food was good, the service was absolutely horrible. We would go up to half an hour without seeing anyone on the wait staff, dirty dishes were left on the table the entire meal, and it took an act of god to refill beverages. Yes, business was brisk but... more
