"Here in the old quarter of Sainte Maxime, just behind the church, we found this, from the outside almost invisible, tiny French bistrot. Inside here is quite authentic. Low ceiling and close between the tables. Open out to the tiny kitchen where le Chef reigns. Here smells wonderful spices and cooking good food. The menu is not large, contains two menus in different price range and a number of à la carte dishes that are the same from the menus. Honestly and fair. The typical choice is the starter, main course and dessert, followed by an espresso. The food is extremely well cooked, tastes heavenly and there are plenty of it. The wine list is manageable and you stand by choosing le Chefs recommendation. Remember to book a table. It's the locals' favorite eatery."

we had dinner at this place as recommended by travel advisers, but the quality of the meal was disappointing, it was all with too much oil, too fat and kartoffel and sweet float in the sauce.

As usual, a trip advisor find. Our third night in Ste Maxime. The food was fabulous as was the service. It might be a little churlish to say it was slightly expensive but that’s the Côte d’Azur for you The steak and lamb were cooked...to perfection. Provence Rose was €26. Not too outrageous. Highly recommended!

I think Les Flambeaux is best value in Sainte Max.Food is very 'old school French cuisine' and all the better for that. No fancy 'foams', shards' or other gastro nonsense just honest, well prepared fresh food.Portion sizes are on the generous side and drinks are good value for the area.Best ever Creme Caramel.Service very good.

The best of French rustic food in and amongst all the great restaurants in st maxime. The only place We went back to here twice in our 2 week stay. The foie gras just melted in the mouth. And they have a spit roaster to cook the baby chicks just perfect. Welcoming knowledgeable staff one of which spoke excellent English. Great wine menu too. Ver carta

We visited the restaurant in July 2010, and since we returned to Ste Maxime this summer we thought we would give it a new try. The greeting is not very friendly, nor is the service. When it comes to the food, everything is more or...less at it was 9 yeas ago. The overall assessment is that if the owner and the staff was more welcoming and service minded we would go again.

I am always quite careful not to end up in overpriced tourist traps - the night we ate here we succeeded. The atmosphere is very relaxed and they take good care of you, the food is absolutely delicious and the value for money is really good.On a hot summer night their veranda is where you would want to sit - as their veranda is a small one, making a reservation would be smart! Enjoy

Super easy to find and lovely restaurant behind "la tour carrée" which is font of the Sainte-Maxime port. We were warmly welcomed and well served (French tradition). They have a great menu with fresh fish and also local meats with all sorts of local specialities. Prices are more than decent for the location and the quality of food. Nothing else to say than go for it in avoiding the touristic places. Ver carta

we've been eating here for 8 years and it can't be beaten. stephanie and nellie, the owner, are exceptional. No matter how busy it is, these 2 ladies are very professional. if you want a cabaret act, eat them at the sea front!. on a 2 weeks touring vacation, we ate in a lot of restaurants michelin played chateaux in village bistros and this chef is as good as anyone you can find. no burger or pizza on the menu, only authentic French cuisine in a great vieux ville location. therefore we go it is an excellent restaurant.

This is a small restaurant located behind the church and well worth a visit.There are two set menus, one for 26 euros and one for 36 euros as well as the al'carte menu. The menu is in English as well as French which makes it easier to order if you don't speak much French.We ate here on two evenings. The first time we ordered off the 26 euro menu, which was good. The second time we ordered off the 36 euro menu, this was fantastic food. The gambas (large shrimps) and the steak were superb. The rose wine was good.Very friendly staff.I can recommend this restaurant.

"we had the 5 course menu, 1 normal, 1 vegetarian. the vegetarian was good but not up to the standard we experienced in similar establishments and not on the level of the non-vegetarian. waiters also did not mention it. it was just a small part on the bottom of the menu. we felt that's also about the appreciation it got from the chef. in our opinion, if u offer a vegetarian menu, it must be on an equal level as the rest of the menu. it wasn't (seems as if les légumes alone just are not much of an inspiration to the chef which clearly reflected in the courses). it wasn't bad but from a 3 star restaurant I expect fireworks even without meat; especially if the theme is provénce. the normal 5 course menu was good but the overuse of grapefruit started to annoy me after the second time 4 or so slices were used on my dish as it was way too sour, clearly overshadowing the other flavors and the note of sour even persisted through the coursesafter the palette refreshener which also contained some lemon notes came the dessert (kind of lemon tart) which was so sour that we both could not finish it. it was like a punch in the face after such perfectly and tastefully balanced 4 previous courses that explored familiar and unfamiliar flavor profiles and combinations (on a deserved 3 star level in my opinion - even though I missed obvious associations to la provénce). the rest of the desserts (which seemed to make up of 30%+ of the overall food volume; no idea why such an emphasis on sweet/sour for just a 5 course meal) couldn't help and were clearly on a much lower level as the rest of the food which was very disappointing to us. also, to be honest, lemon notes belong more to Italy than to the provence (google oops I dropped the lemon tart). all in all a mixed experience which started strong and gradually worsened. A bite into a lemon or grapefruit would have given me a purer taste of la provence if i wanted to explore the perfect sour note. service was excellent, excited and friendly. wine pairing good."

"It was the best of meals, The second, not so much. On the Wednesday evening we explained that we needed one gluten free meal. We were immediately handed over to a charming lady, who we took to be the proprietor. She assured us that she would confer with the chef. We ordered a “coquelet roti” with a cream and grape sauce and a fillet steak served without sauces. Chips were covered in gluten but the chef proposed a salad for the steak and the “coquelet” came with a Gratin Dauphinoise. All the food was delicious. The chicken was soft and sweet the sauce had a depth of flavour aided and abeted by the small bursts of sweet grape juice from the grapes within it. The steak was perfect; maximum of flavour from the seared outside, maximum of soft juiciness from the tender pink interior. Dessert was a fruit crumble that had not had the crumble added, pronounced delicious, and a crème broulee. The crème was not a traditional baked vanilla egg custard. It tasted like a flour based preparation and was devoid of vanilla. All in all, the service had been attentive and the food mostly great. We determined that we would return for a second meal and looked forward to it.Mistake! Sunday evening, the waitress remembered us, and promised to check for gluten free food. She checked the Champaign sauce that was served with the Salmon. We could not have it. She was not aware that the rice, the dauphinoise and the chips all contained gluten. She suggested salad. We said that would be fine. The Dorade Royale, one of my favourite fish was sold out but they could offer Sea Bass. O.K., that would do. The salad delivered with the dry salmon was a simple bag mix of leaves, not the fresh mixed salad it had been four days before. It had brown stalks and tasted stale. The fish was undoubtedly the worst cooked fish I have ever been served. It had clearly been laid on a metal tray and placed under an electric grill. It had not been turned or moved until it was served. Consequently, the top skin was like leather. It defied my efforts with the serrated knife provided to cut through it. I had to prize it off to get to the very dry fish beneath. A simple glaze of oil would have ensured that the skin became crispy and a delicious part of the fish. It would also have ensured that the (Chef?) remembered to turn the fish under the grill. When I turned the fish on the plate, the lower side skin was a soggy mess where all the juices had soaked it through. Scraping it off, the second fillet was edible, despite the attentions of the chef. We told the waitress what was wrong with our food. She said she would tell the chef. We don’t know if she did. We did not see him."
