We discovered this gem by accident.  Could not have been more thrilled. We were impressed with the introductory artichoke puree with Chile; the first course octopus and pomme de terre confite were  unique flavors for us. The brisket was perfectly cooked and the risotto Verde was yummy. Very happy with the ambiance, view, and darling wait staff. Wish our French was up to the task to compliment them appropriately.

We had a nice meal at Bateleur but nothing out of the ordinary. I had fish with potatoes in a mint/pea broth and my husband had veal with risotto and fresh peas, finishing with a cheese plate. There was only 1 server and she was running to keep up so service definitely suffered. For instance, the cheese plate was dropped on our table without any explanation of what each of the cheeses were; we figured it out but would have appreciated even a simple explanation. The prices are on the expensive side as we had 2 main courses, a cheese plate and 3 glasses of wine totalling €115.

Nice indoor setting & delicious meal, be it fish or meat. Though selection is limited, food ingredients are of fresh produce. Waiting staff is truly courteous & attentive to needs. Really worth a visit (or more 😉).

They had one 3 course menu (vegetable soup, veal with ratatouille, and peach-mango dessert) but it was the best thing we've had in Côtes du Rhône !
