Excellent food with good ambience (outdoor) and excellent service
Beautiful Covid compliant atmosphere. Fine dining- excellent wait staff. Extensive menu selections.
French food prepared the traditional way- flavorful and not heavy in their seasoning.
Outdoor gardens were lovely!
It was an excellent brunch. I want to return to see if their other food is good too.
Great as usual. Eddie, our waiter is the best and Cindy always makes sure we have him. And Michael always makes sure we have our favorite table as does Cindy! Great food, great service and great people!
We have been to La Provence many times, but brought family members this time. They raved about the food. I had the striped bass and the next day was still thinking it was probably the best piece of fish I ever had. It’s like a fine dining experience in the city, but more casual, free parking, and BYOB. For the quality of food and service it’s a good value, and they really do outdoor dining right.
Excellent venue amazing food and service
Everything was excellent. Our waiter was friendly and very knowledgeable. The food was amazing. I ordered cod croquettes to start and then had the steak au poivre. All perfectly cooked. Dessert was amazing. Chocolate mousse of course, which came recommended by our waiter.
Lovely setting at train station, with lots of outside seating. Food is excellent, definitely French, with generous portions, and attentive service. Dishes range from familiar, such as roast chicken, salmon, seared scallops, to the more unusual, like braised rabbit with pasta, but the unusual is worth trying. Accompaniments are lovely, including outstanding frites. Desserts are a few classics, like floating island, chocolate mousse, apple tart. BYOB.
Great outdoor place
We have traveled to Paris and can say this restaurant and chef are the best we have experienced. We have dined at Thomas Keller restaurants and this was beyond those. Ambiance and service exceptional. Food beyond superb. You must try this restaurant if in the area.
It's hard to find french style food at a reasonable price
Excellent food,attentive service and COVID safe
We always have great meals at Le Provence. The Escargot and onion soup were great. The lamb and duck dishes were made to perfection and the desert was devoured. Our primary waiter who used to work downtown was outstanding. We went Easter Sunday PM and noted a few service glitches which was surprising. First, I have to ask 4 times to get extra bread for the escargot. On a night when they were not 1/2 full that was frustrating. Secondly, our entrees were brought out as our waiter was just taking away our appetizer plates which felt rushed, left us with no silverware, and the waiter clearly and appropriately frustrated. Thirdly, after delivering out entrees before appetizers were cleared ( ugh), it took 20 minutes to deliver the desert. Overall, people remembered that it was my daughter's birthday which we truly appreciated. However if you are going to charge up to 40 dollars for an entree ( Lamb), there better be service to justify those prices. We hope they will fix the service glitches ( none seemed to be the waiter's fault as we really liked him!) Grade B+...fix the glitches and it was A+
Nate is great! Wonderful evening.
I chose this restaurant because it was a book, to celebrate my husband's birthday. The food was phenomenal. We will definitely be back.
My friend Casey was in town and we wanted to have a great dinner so, of course, we went to La Provence. We started off our meal with the tried and true Endive salad as well as a new two new and very welcome additions, the Cod Croquettes appetizer and the Crab & White Asapargus terrine. Casey said the Endive was the best salad he ever had in his life. We also both loved the croquettes and the terrine, as well. The presentation of both, like everything Chef Patrice Péron does, was impeccable! When you broke the croquettes open, steam and the most inviting aroma, flowed up towards you. The terrines beauty speaks for itself in the picture but tasted even better than it looked. For dinner we had the Salmon and the Rabbit. Both entrees were exactly what you expect from Chef Péron, perfection! Our desserts, the Chocolate Fondant & Creme Brûlée, were exactly the way you’d want your meal to end.
You might as well be In Provence. Pleasant atmosphere, helpful staff (ask for Michael), easy parking, food is superb. A local gem.
We had a lovely experience dining outside at La Provence. The food was delicious, the menu enticing, the ambience warm and cozy with the heat lamps and padded divider set up that the restaurant installed, I imagine for Covid, but easily something they should maintain as it helped shield some of the noise from the train tracks. My only complaint would be that the pricing for certain items was rather steep: the white asparagus topped with crab appetizer was very very tiny at a price of $23. But overall we had a really really nice time and it was so nice to get out to dinner and enjoy some time with friends with good food in a nice space!
We have never been disappointed at La Provence. All of the elements: food; service; ambiance are always top notch. We will be back.
Everything was delicious. We can’t wait to go back!
Love the menus and choices. Food is high quality and excellently prepared.
Delicious food and good service in a very busy night
Their outdoor set up has been a godsend during pandemic!
Good food. Good place for business dinner.
The food was delicious and the customer service was outstanding.
great neighborhood spot, food excellent, service excellent
It was great — as usual!
We love La Provence. The outside dining is the best. The food is wonderful and the owners and staff are great.
We are so fortunate to have this wonderful restaurant in Ambler. Love it
Too loud by the road and ambience not as nice as further back on the patio from the road. But it was great to be out dining, server was excellent, heat lamps were warm and happy to return again! French onion soup outstanding!
Lovely evening for dining out at a wonderful outdoor venue. Food and service excellent, as usual.
Our server Michael was very attentive & took excellent care of us. The escargots were delicious and the salmon & duck breast were both cooked perfectly. Topped it off with profiteroles for dessert.
One of the best meals we have had out since the pandemic started !
very nice restaurant. Service was excellent. Food very good. Prices were fair considering it is a French Restaurant.
A girls night out on a 50 some degree evening. Very cozy and beautiful outdoor setting.
La Provence is one of my favorite restaurants! It is a beautiful setting with excellent, delicious food and wonderful service! Highly recommend!
I was not familiar with this restaurant before booking. Simply put, it was one of my best dining experiences in the past 12 months. Trout almandine was great. Service, etc. was equally good. Bravo!
The BEST restaurant in the area. Need a wine recommendation, ask for Michael. Couldn't recommend with higher confidence
since expansion layout a bit funky, but worth a dinner. Food great, wait staff exceptional. and, BYOB!
Nice decor. Excellent service. Food was great - not overly French. I had the beef stew, which was fantastic. We sat inside because it was cold, but outside looks really nice - right along the train tracks.
La Provence is doing a very good job amid this pandemic; seating is limited and a bit complicated. The food was very good; not particularly "outstanding". My rack of lamb was "outstanding" - prepared to a perfect temperature and tender. However, it was served on a small bed of white beans, that were tasty, but added no excitement visually or or to the palette; I expected a bit more for the price. Again, the Belgian endive salad was deliciously prepared, but placed solely in an open bowl left nothing for the eye (and it it the most expensive salad on the menu. The onion soup was tasty, but the broth needed some "oomph". The most disappointing was the , not even two inch round, half inch thick slice of bread that was placed on a side dish that swallowed it up; we both asked for a second slice to go with the liquid on our entree plates. The profiteroles were delicious! Our server was friendly and kind, but felt as if he didn't have enough time to be attentive; he never returned to ask about our entrees until we were at least 3/4 way through. Will we return - more than likely; I'd like to give it another try.
Beautiful landscaping for outdoor dining with plenty of heat lamps was perfect for a March evening. The 3 course meal was exceptional, as well as the service. Delicious chocolate lava cake was warm and decadent.
