We had had this restaurant recommended to us back in New Zealand before we came and were very happy to hear about it and get the opportunity to try it out last week. The host is very kind and speaks very good English. We decided...to try the surprise menu and were treated to an imaginative range of dishes for entree, main and dessert that all used plums as they are in season at the moment. The entree was a fish dish, the main a chicken dish with greengages that was sweet and delicious and a plum and sage tart for dessert with ice cream. Everything tasted fresh and made with love and imagination. We highly recommend you try this restaurant out when you are in Vence. It is just outside the old...
Ok all you who show up in Vence and either did not make a reservation or want to avoid the crowded part of the place/square, this is for you. Natasha is wonderful. Her food is fresh and creative and yet very French. I always love...the magret de canard (duck breast) but she has so many more things to offer. I have been here on a date with my wife, who is a foodie and loves it, or with my daughters for lunch or as a family of She is always willing to accomodate. Its on the other side of the village, takes minutes to walk. Its calm, quiet and well priced. Her English is impeccable (her French too! This is the place to show your guests that you know the town secret spot. N'Essence des Sens. Its...
We chanced across this restaurant and I was attracted to the idea of the use of seasonal vegetables. Since we were visiting in December, I wasn't sure how this would work. My husband and I both had the surprise menu, and the common ingredient was...a sweet potato. I did not actually know that I liked sweet potatoes, but after that heavenly meal, I am definitely a fan (at least in that restaurant). Overall, the food was outstanding and since it was a slow night, we had a chance to talk to the owner, which we enjoyed almost as much as the food. I don't know when I'll be back to Vence, but I am now looking for reasons to be in the area.
Natacha should change the name of her restaurant to her name because that is what we like to call it, Natacha's Natacha is warm, caring, kind, professional and an excellent chef du cuisine. Her preparations are simple yet tasty and consistent and her surprise menu...is always fun. For the surprise, she chooses a fresh local ingredient and works this suprise element into an entree', a plat, and a dessert. The quality of the food, considering the price, is suprising. Dining at Natacha's is the equivalent of being invited to dinner in an elegant french home.

We both had the surprise dinner (use of a seasonal fruit or veg for entree, main and dessert) this evening and were very pleased we did. It was a lovely meal as others had stated in their reviews. Don’t miss this experience the food was...amazing and so to was the element of surprise!
Although neither vegan nor vegetarian I let myself tent by a seitan. And I've been enjoying myself. very well cooked, accompanied by quality products in quantity, my dish was added by a high-flying discussion with our host. My darling and I had a very good time.
Nice vegetarian/vegan food and excellent service in any way you can think off!!! They have all kind off food meat vegetarian and small appetiser. Brunches for weekends wich you need to prebook but are great and worth the price! My absolute favorite...
