About

  • Gault&Millau, 1 toque 2025

Le K restaurant offers a unique space, a blend of light and shadow with Japanese influences. At the heart of the interior, Joana Vasconcelos's Lilicopter transforms the space into an exceptional setting for dining, both at lunchtime and in the evening.

The intimate and cozy terrace allows you to enjoy the gentle atmosphere of Provence. The menu features Japanese specialties and dishes strongly inspired by the Provençal terroir.

Chef Milan Maffioli offers an umami lunch every day at noon.

Every month, themed evenings are organised with gourmet buffets and live cooking demonstrations.
