    First time here for Brunch. Food and service was excellent! Generous portions! I would have given 5 stars if the room temperature was not so warm. Miss the dinners we had on the past, would definitely return for Brunch!

    Provence has long been a favorite of mine, a little pocket of sunshine where every visit feels like a gentle embrace. I was delighted to find they had recently waved their magic wand over the brunch menu—what a treat! The meal was, as always, delicious, each course arriving like a little gift. Dessert didn’t quite sweep me off my feet this time, but honestly, that might just be one of those whimsical mysteries of the day. The space itself is simply beautiful—elegant without trying too hard—and with the pre fixe pricing, it feels like a bit of everyday luxury. If you're looking for a charming escape and a truly lovely meal, I wholeheartedly recommend giving Provence a try.

    Beautiful brunch with lots of unique choices. Unhurried and wonderful ambiance. Love the variety of choices for mimosa mixers. Bring your own champagne. Highly recommend. Great for a special occasion or just a nice yet reasonable date.

    This was our first (and last) trip to Provence. After sitting down to brunch, it took 20 minutes to get our first cup of coffee. Breakfast arrived 45 minutes after that. The poor waitress was doing her best. After breakfast, it took 20 minutes to get dessert and coffee. Most of our time was spent looking at other customers also sitting around, not eating or drinking while they waited for their food and drink. At first we thought it was just the number of customers, but when the restaurant pared down to just 10 people, service did not improve. This place needs a good manager. What a shame because it is so beautiful.

    The restaurant itself is beautiful, the chairs are comfortable, lighting is good. Music could’ve been a bit quieter. Service was fineAlthough she did mention to me twice “did you know where a BYO?“ and I felt scolded by her. I had told her we didn’t have time to grab wine.We opted for the three courses I had escargot scallops and the pumpkin crème brûlée. My boyfriend got the wild mushroom French onion, soup, braise, short rib, ribs, and the pecan pie. Overall, I think the restaurant is just trying too hard- it came off presumptuous. The escargot were not hot, they were dry and just overall had too much going on on the plate. Boyfriend‘s braised short ribs were so overpowered with the flavor of tomato paste. Any good cook knows you have to cook/roast out the bitterness of tomato paste by roasting it for a few mins. The preparation on this just felt Rushed. Not to mention my boyfriend finished his entire meal in about four bites. The portion sizes were very small. My scallops were cooked well, but was definitely missing a starch or a sauce or some type of richness brought to the dish. It was six medium sized scallops over top asparagus with 4 pieces of zucchini coins breaded and fried. The zucchini tasted like straight olive oil. Again, rookie food preparation. Spending $200+ for dinner here made me ill. There are a dozen restaurants I could’ve spent less and left satisfied and happy. We will not be back. I’ll summarize by saying we stopped and picked up a pizza on the way home….it was that bad.
