Auberge de Chanaleilles - Les Vans

This restaurant is located in Chassagnes, just outside Les Vans. We ate a menu of 35 Euro/pp (there were 3 dishes). The food was really delicious. I was just a little disappointed at the wine I chose. The red wine was too sweet for the dishes. Unfortunately, the waiter didn't tell me that this wine doesn't match the dishes, but I really want to recommend this restaurant. Sure we'll come back! Don't forget the reserve!

We were here the second time and the food was nice and fresh they have a food wine card with many choices ... Dinner was excellent service friendly music supplement :

Went with family at end of a week's holiday in the Ardeche and it didn't disappoint. Food was very good and the service and ambiance matched. A little hard to find so off the beaten track but a lovely place that we will visit again...when we are next here without a doubt. The deconstructed tomato and mozzarella starter was the only questionable dish. It was a bit like a trifle and might have been good in a smaller portion but was overwhelming as it was. Very good lamb and steak though and the €35 menu was very good value.

Very charming location in quiet surroundings in the middle of 'the wild nature '. A bit hard to find and not easy to get back to Les Vans when darkness has fallen. Nice atmosphere. We had an exceptional steak of locally breeded beef. The owner is...very friendly. Only we were there at a bad time: half September, when we arrived we found out that we were the only guests which was a turn-off: dining in an empty restaurant is not very cosy. No bad word about the food though except that our entree could use a bit more seasoning.

We enjoyed a simple satisfying lunch in the delightful walled and leafy terrace behind the restuarant. Accessibility may be a problem if you have diners who find several steep steps hard to negotiate. Staff were attentive and friendly. Set €13 menu was a delightful smoked...duck breast salad, local trout with sautéed potatoes and a chocolate/coffee dessert cake l'Opera. A good choice for an easy dining experience.
