Bib Gourmand · Guide Michelin

A cuisinethat speaksof travel.

In the heart of the old village of Vallon-Pont-d'Arc, Arkadia is the setting for a signature cuisine — a sensitive dialogue between the shores of the Mediterranean and the distant flavours of Asia.

Our Story

A family home,a culinary workshop.

Arkadia was born of a single desire: to bring the table and the image into dialogue under one roof. In the heart of the old village of Vallon-Pont-d'Arc, among the centuries-old stones of an Ardèche house, the restaurant welcomes its guests as if into a living workshop.

Here, Brittany-born chef Marvin Quentric crafts a signature cuisine that weaves together the Mediterranean and Asia — a cuisine reinvented each month, in step with the deliveries and the market gardeners of the causse.

On the walls, the canvases of artist Florence Gautier form an ever-shifting backdrop. Arkadia is a restaurant. Arkadia is a gallery. Above all, it is a place where one lingers long at the table.

The Chef

Marvin Quentric,an honest cuisine.

Born in Brittany, chef Marvin Quentric set down his knives in the Ardèche after a path nourished by travel and encounters. His cuisine, honest and inventive, celebrates the region's producers through the prism of a taste memory shaped by the Mediterranean and Asia.

His philosophy comes down to a few words: a product handled with respect, a cooking that reveals, and the boldness to dare the right gesture — whether it comes from a Southeast Asian market or a farm on the Ardèche plateau.

“I cook what I am: a Breton who has seen the world, and who chose the Ardèche to set down his knives.”

What they say

The words of thosewho have dined with us.

A cuisine of rare inventiveness, where every plate tells a story. The service is attentive, the setting magnificent between ancient stone and contemporary paintings.

A fully deserved Bib Gourmand. The flavours are precise, the produce elevated. We travelled from Brittany to Asia by way of the Ardèche, without leaving our table.
