Restaurant Pollen

A beautiful restaurant that full deserves its one star Michelin. You don’t have to chose anything except the 5 or 7 course menus, with our without wine pairing. Enjoy.

We made a reservation for lunch, the menu was chefs choice either 3 or 5 course. We went with the 5 course which was 100 euros per person. Very reasonable for the quality of the food and the service. The meal was superb.

Impeccable. Was better than expected. Being served courses by chefs and the staff were equally as impressive. Wine pairings were perfect. Can’t say enough. Elegant but simple and sophisticated.

Excellent, and worth the value. The ambiance is lovely, and the grand menu is creative and fun.

My husband and I enjoyed our exquisite meal. We selected the smaller tasting menu. The dishes were perfection! The service was excellent, and we enjoyed having a great kitchen view. Our dinner was the perfect ending to two weeks in Provence and the pinnacle dining experience of our trip.

My recent visit to Pollen, a restaurant that has always been synonymous with exceptional dining, left me with mixed feelings. While the food maintained its consistently high standards, the service fell short of what one would expect from a Michelin-caliber establishment. We chose Pollen to celebrate my dad's birthday, anticipating a seamless and memorable evening. Unfortunately, the experience was marred by long waits between courses and noticeable confusion among the staff regarding which plate belonged to which person at our table. This disorganization significantly detracted from the overall enjoyment of the meal. The situation took a further downturn during the payment process. We were informed that there was an issue with certain debit cards, which led to an embarrassing scenario where my dad had to step in to settle the bill. To add to the inconvenience, I later received multiple calls about fraud attempts linked to the payment, which is highly unusual and concerning for a restaurant of Pollen's reputation. Pollen has always been a benchmark for fine dining, but this visit left me nostalgic for the seamless and delightful experiences of the past. Given the service issues and payment complications, I would hesitate to return in the near future. It's disappointing to see such a distinguished establishment falter, and I hope they can address these issues promptly. For now, I'll be looking elsewhere for special occasions.

Had an amazing time here. The place is nestled behind an alley and mini courtyard and inside the restaurant was super cute and decorated very well. Absolutely loved the food and the service, everyone was so nice and attentive. And even the chef came out to introduce one of the courses to our table, a great addition to our experience! Every dish he made for us was spectacular and tasty. I’m absolutely coming back, amazing experience all around.

This was one of the best Michelin star experiences I've had yet, second only to 3 star Addison Del Mar(and it was close). The menu was excellent, and the dishes were cohesive and not overwhelming. The ambiance is relaxed and modern while remaining polished and refined. Each member of the staff will present a dish, including the executive chef. The wine list is extensive, and the sommelier was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with our choice. The 2005 Domaine Puech Lazert was a perfect bottle from a lesser-known, but excellent producer. All in all, it was probably the most enjoyable dining experience I've ever had.
