   The restaurant itself is beautiful, the chairs are comfortable, lighting is good. Music could’ve been a bit quieter. Service was fineAlthough she did mention to me twice “did you know where a BYO?“ and I felt scolded by her. I had told her we didn’t have time to grab wine.We opted for the three courses I had escargot scallops and the pumpkin crème brûlée. My boyfriend got the wild mushroom French onion, soup, braise, short rib, ribs, and the pecan pie. Overall, I think the restaurant is just trying too hard- it came off presumptuous. The escargot were not hot, they were dry and just overall had too much going on on the plate. Boyfriend‘s braised short ribs were so overpowered with the flavor of tomato paste. Any good cook knows you have to cook/roast out the bitterness of tomato paste by roasting it for a few mins. The preparation on this just felt Rushed. Not to mention my boyfriend finished his entire meal in about four bites. The portion sizes were very small. My scallops were cooked well, but was definitely missing a starch or a sauce or some type of richness brought to the dish. It was six medium sized scallops over top asparagus with 4 pieces of zucchini coins breaded and fried. The zucchini tasted like straight olive oil. Again, rookie food preparation. Spending $200+ for dinner here made me ill. There are a dozen restaurants I could’ve spent less and left satisfied and happy. We will not be back. I’ll summarize by saying we stopped and picked up a pizza on the way home….it was that bad.

   A friend, Quanette recommended this place. This is my second visit in seven days. I bought someone to see it too. Amazing!!!! We are planning to do a staycation.

   Love the main room experience. Unfortunately the food quality has gone down each time we've been back.

   Lovely restaurant, delicious food, service attentive, a bit pricey, could use a sign from parking lot indicating entrance, we followed ramp, it was the long way, hope we received our 100 points on open table as we were not checked in properly.

   It was fabulous. I am gluten free and they made sure I was able to order something. The food and service was exceptional and I’ll be back to visit again soon.

   We were glad that we tried during a less crowded time. We had a wonderful experience and look forward to going back. We certainly will recommend Provence to our friends. Thank you.

   It was a nice meal. The only downside was the "sweet and savory bread basket" consisted of two small hard rolls that reminded me of frozen ones you buy at the supermarket and toss into the oven to heat up. The honey butter that came with it tasted like the refrigerator. Same with the chocolate dipping sauce that came with the beignets, The entree itself was quite good, as was the coffee and the beignets. The prix fix price is $25 pp and the Beignet Tree with 3 dipping sauces (the lemon and Strawberry dipping sauces ere very good) was $10. So, without drinks, it was $60 for two people. At that price, everything should have been outstanding and they just missed that. I can now say I've been to Provence but I won't be rushing back.

    We had a very enjoyable dinner for Valentine’s Day at Provence. The courses were very well prepared and presented, unfortunately one of the courses the selection and the substitution were not appealing to us. Overall very enjoyable and we will be back again.
