1. Flaveurs
$$$$ | |If you think the Pic empire has a lock on Valence gastronomy, think again: the extraordinary precision and refinement of Baptiste Poinot's cooking makes a foodie stopover in Valence an absolute must. Though the dining room itself is a bit on the quirky side, there is nothing to quibble over when it comes to the gorgeous presentation and scintillating tastes in dishes like melt-in-your-mouth trout fillet with salsify puree and crunchy grains of roasted buckwheat all in a cloud of curried foam. Desserts are equally tantalizing and the bountiful cheese cart is a sight to behold. The €38 lunch menu is a good introduction to this marvelous Michelin-starred cuisine.

2. La Cachette
$$$$ | |Set on the edge of Valence's Old Town, a few minutes from the Parc Jouvet, this hidden gem is one more reason to get thee to Valence. Chef Masashi Ijichi's Japanese roots and pedigreed French training (at the House of Pic) merge in a stunning cuisine that is virtuosic without being bombastic. Ijichi's delicate flavor pairings and poetic presentation rely on the intrinsic virtues of the freshest ingredients: an inky black sea urchin filled with golden pumpkin whipped cream and jellied lobster or white chocolate mousse and bright mango puree. The pared down dining room is an excellent backdrop to highlight the food, but be sure to leave some time, as this is a moment to savor.

3. André
$$$ | |If Maison Pic, superstar chef Anne-Sophie Pic's gastronomic mothership, is too much of a splurge (and a splurge it is), her gourmet bistro just two steps away will set you right up. Named for her grandfather, founder of the Pic empire, the menu riffs on all the French classics that built the Pic name. The handsome wood-and-leather decor and swanky lighting feel both classic and contemporary, much like the menu of such timeless stalwarts as snails and parsleyed roasted potatoes, pâté en croute, filet de dorade royale, grilled entrecôte, and leeks vinaigrette, all at a fraction of what you'd pay next door.

- Quiet, chic decor
- Excellent service
- Contemporary-classic recipes

4. Bistrot des Clercs
$$ | |Stepping through the door of this ravishing Belle Époque brasserie is a bit like traveling back in time, so beautifully preserved is its turn-of-the-century ambience, with classic globe lighting, tile floor, linen-bedecked wooden tables, and the expansive menu. The spell is only enhanced by a traditional menu of all the classics: delicious steak tartare, moules frites (mussels and fries), foie gras, and escargots, all washed down with a local Côtes du Rhône. If you still have room, the cheese plate or a homemade classic dessert (like pavé au chocolat Valrhona or crème brûlée) assure a happy ending.
48 rue Grande, Valence, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, 26000, France04–75–55–55–15Known For
- Gorgeous historical atmosphere
- All the classic dishes
- Delightful desserts
