    Best French dining experience from starter to dessert @ Avignon! We enjoyed every dishes served, high quality. The owner is very friendly & knowledgeable. Advanced booking via e-mail is a must to avoid disappointment. The restaurant is often fully booked.

    One of our best meals in Avignon. And Antonia is one of the funniest and most gracious host/server/waitress/bartender & possibly co-proprietors I’ve encountered. Reservations are highly recommended and easily made by email. From the moment we walked in we felt so welcomed. She did a wonderful job with her wine 🍷 and pairing recommendations. The lavender liqueur was very unique/hints of anise & definitely lavender. My husband said his main course the mushroom risotto the best he’s ever had and my Iberian pork was a quintessential taste of autumn 🍂 And the Bananoffee Dessert is off the hook delicious. I’m not sure how she ran the dining room so well as it was just her but you never felt rush despite it filling up. If you have a chance, it’s a must try in Avignon. Merci Beaucoup Restaurant Fou de Fafa for a wonderful evening and remembering to email me a picture of the Lavender Liqueur.

    I had a wonderful dinner at Fou de Fafa on a Saturday night. Booking via email was super easy and I’m glad I did when I saw Antonia having to turn away walk-in guests since the restaurant was fully booked. 3-plats menu at a good price. Food presentation is so pleasant to look at, smell nice and taste great. The fish of the day main dish is SUPERB. Antonia offers a wonderful service. Her voice is so soft and soothing and she speaks perfect English. I highly recommend Fou de Fafa for your Avignon trip and definitely email/call them to book a table in advance.

    A friend and I travelled across France and this was by far our best meal. Every bite was delicious and the service was next level. We both did the three course pre-fixed menu. The fish of the day in a saffron cream sauce was a stand out. Thanks for a great meal and experience!

    Very delicious food and the atmosphere was also great. A warm and friendly restaurant. By the way, the price is also reasonable. Highly recommended for the French restaurant in Avignon.

    Do not even think about ignoring this special place when you visit Avignon. Small menu, small hall, limited visiting hours (7pm-11pm) should not stop you from getting an extraordinary reception and delicious food. Your initiative and perseverance will be rewarded when you open the door. Special place with the special personnel in a special city.

    Incredible spot in the heart of Avignon! Service was exceptional and food was incredible as well! Highly recommend! Get the banoffee pie!!!

  • 5/5 Bob H. 8 months ago on Google
    This is a gem. Starts with the very kind wait staff / owner. The room is very quaint and cozy. All the starters were on point: tuna, carpaccio and papeton. Entree favorites were the cod with Saffron, duck and pork. I especially enjoyed the banana dessert. The wine list was very nice and reasonably priced. Can't wait for the chance to come back.

    absolutely fantastic! The food was wonderful, perfect portions and really delicious. The best service I have ever experienced. So much kindness, we really felt at home! We will definitely come back the next time we are in Avignon!

  • 5/5 Aleah S. 8 months ago on Google
    Absolute gem of a find! This restaurant has been the highlight of our trip to France so far. The service is absolutely impeccable and the food we will think about for years. The perfect combination of fresh produce and meat with very creative sauces. The menu changes every six weeks to ensure it’s honoring what’s ripe and in season. Everything about this experience was truly wonderful. We are very serious about our restaurant choices and you can trust that Fou de Fafa will give you the meal of a lifetime.

    Would give more than 5 stars if I could! Food was great from start to finish.The pork in particular was cooked to perfection.It is a no brainer with this price tag.

  • 5/5 Maria F. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food and great service. Our dinner here was one of the best meals we’ve had in France! I would especially recommend their butternut squash soup, which is topped with truffle oil and roasted nuts.

  • 5/5 Eva B. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing food and service. Great wine selection and attention to detail. Better to book in advance in high season as there isn't many tables and its often full.

  • 5/5 Abby V. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely delicious meal and exceptional service. I would have gone two nights in a row if I hadn’t already made a different reservation. Hoping I can come back someday!

  • 5/5 Samuele D. 1 year ago on Google
    My wife and I returned here for dinner after 3 years, this time with our 4 month old daughter. The place is exactly as we remembered it: the food is sublime, the welcome wonderful, the experience unforgettable. Each dish is the result of research, the flavors intersect perfectly. The bill is absolutely in line with the evening. Absolutely recommended!

  • 5/5 Cherry Q. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect restaurant. Good food, nice atmosphere, great service. The Pork was MINDBLOWING!

  • 5/5 Bruna D. 1 year ago on Google
    Not only the most delicious food of Avignon, but also an absolutely pleasant experience hosted by the lovely Antonia on her restaurant. The fennel soup deserves a prize, the black olive jam accompaning the great cheese selection is a treasure and the chocolate brule is to die for. I was impressed in my visit to Avignon in 2017 and back now only to see they have even stepped up their game. Can't recommend enough!
