Auberge Lou Pinatou

Lou Pinatou is a Michelin-recognized restaurant in a 165-year-old inn, holding both a Bib Gourmand and a Michelin Plate. The kitchen, run by a chef from Le Puy and his pastry-chef wife from Marseille, crafts precise, modern dishes from the property's extensive garden, orchards, and hives, resulting in plates like duck with walnut-stuffed cabbage or tomato with smoked sardine mousseline. The wine list highlights the volcanic Loire and Ardèche. It’s an intimate, quiet setting with panoramic mountain views, built for diners who value provenance and a refined rural experience over metropolitan spectacle.
