Le 5 - Ménerbes

We ate the most delicious steak here last year and hoped to do the same again but as with all menus it had changed. We weren’t disappointed however as there was plenty of choice. My husband had oysters and lamb and I chose pork, both...dishes were tasty as well as being beautifully cooked and presented. A bottle of local rosé complimented the meal and I ended with a mouthwatering lemon sorbet. A little gem not to be missed. The weather spoiled the view of Le Mont Ventu but it didn’t spoil the meal. The staff are engaging polite and most helpful and will speak English if you need them to. Will return next year. Booking recommended and you will need a Covid pass.

We originally booked the restaurant for a meal whilst in Menerbes on holiday. However, one evening when looking for a sun downer we thought we’d head to the bistro to check it out a couple of days before the meal. We were given a space...(great start) and given a space at the very best view point over looking the valley and Mont Ventoux. This (whilst being incredible) is where the incredible ends. This restaurant and bar is clearly understaffed. And whilst the service is incredibly slow I must point out that the staff were fantastic there’s no denying that. Then the drinks turned up. Utter face palm. for a cocktail. Again no problem with a view like this and the drink stacks up to the price. What turned up is what can only be described as awful. The porn star martini (yes yes I know) and the Moscow mule were nothing like any kind of martini or mule I’ve ever tasted. Served in generic glasses of which was broken at the base). They were so bad we’re almost assumed we had the wrong order. And this is where it’s hard to overly complain. I don’t speak french. And whilst in France I should speak french so in this scenario it’s suck it up and pay for two awful drinks. In an English speaking country I’d have returned the drinks and left. Lastly I’d just say this place isn’t for everyone. It’s pretentious. Almost beach clubby. And on that basis we paid, left and also cancelled the food for a few days later. In our opinion and it is only just our opinion there are far better options in the area and at half the price.

We came to lunch Sunday and we enjoyed it! a beautiful setting with a good kitchen and a good welcome! if you want to spend a pleasant time I recommend this address!

Very good taste of meat accompaniment but too much waiting appreciated that there are not as many people as summer

Excellent eating in a beautiful environment with views of the lubéron Valley. the personal could have been much more friendly. no aperitif was suggested, right in the menu (until I said we would like an aperitif while we look at the menu). we were going. for a relaxed Sunday dinner on a sunny terrace in a beautiful environment and felt as if the personal want us to order, eat and go to their convenientity instead of our. obviously not the same treatment when they are regular customers who were greeted with open poor and big smiles.
