The story
Le Clos Saint-Pierre has long been an essential address in the region. Awarded a Michelin star in 2003 and now holding a Michelin Recommended distinction, this restaurant in Le Rouret, near Grasse, continues to draw diners with its consistent high quality and thoughtful research.
Chef Daniel Ettlinger welcomes guests in the spirit of a table d’hôtes – a convivial, family-style approach that makes the dining experience feel personal and unhurried. The restaurant occupies two rooms seating up to 55 guests, while a large 100m² terrace accommodates another 60, offering a choice of intimate indoor dining or al fresco meals under the Provencal sky.
The menu at Le Clos Saint-Pierre celebrates the flavours of Provence. Chef Ettlinger works with seasonal ingredients, crafting dishes that are both rooted in tradition and marked by a contemporary precision. The cuisine is deeply Provencal, drawing on the region’s herbs, vegetables, olive oil, and seafood – never fussy, always balanced.
The setting reinforces the experience: calm, elegant, and grounded in the local landscape. For those wishing to stay overnight, the adjoining Hôtel du Clos, located 150 metres away in the village centre, offers a seamless extension of the restaurant’s quiet hospitality.
Le Clos Saint-Pierre remains a destination for anyone seeking authentic Provencal cuisine delivered with warmth and technical skill – a place where the soul of a table d’hôtes meets the standards of Michelin recognition.
