Lunch in/near Orange?

[degustazione]

Any recommendations? I didn't see anything on a search. Thanks.

We own a home in Sablet about 20 minutes from Orange and go three or four times a year. I don't know any restaurant to recommend in Orange but there are quite a few good ones a short distance away. Will you have a car? How far is your definition to "near"?

Pammel,
Thanks for your reply. Yes we will have a car and are thinking of visiting vaison la romaine the same day. I saw your post on restaurants in that area and l'oustalet in gigondas sounded good and geographically convenient. Any other suggestions welcome.

Even thought this excellent report

has Luberon in the titlte, it also covers the Orange-Vaison area.

My definition of near is 25 to 30 miles, yes we will have a car would like to have a lete lunch and get back to the apt. Before dark . Our apartment is in Pernes les Fontaines maybe leaving Orange after site seeing we could dine on the way back. I just do not feel comfortable driving after dark. Would Sablet be on my route to Pernes les Fontaines? Thanks Johnbliss
