What is a "cabanon" ? A "cabanon" is a French word to define a small shed in a garden. In the south of France, it is more than that, it can be a place where you can cook, eat, talk and have a little nap... For us, it is a small kitchen where grandmothers used to prepare their culinary specialties and recipes, and where there was always something to eat and drink. The door was always opened and everyone could come and share, laugh, talk, eat, drink, etc...
“The food was so authentic and delicious. The preparations were simple so the high quality of the ingredients came through. The tuna was cooked to perfection, endive salad piled high with flavorful blue cheese that just melted in your mouth. My husband's burger and fries were classic, nice sear on the meat, good crunch to the fries, not to mention the lightest mayonnaise made from scratch. My glass of Bordeaux was really complex and complemented the cuisine perfectly. The atmosphere is comfortable and laid back. We will return!”
“Great hospitality shown by the staff. Today was the day Paris won the title in soccer and these guys had been catering to a large crowd since 9am. Still they were on point and celebrated my birthday in a hospitable fashion. Thanks; see You all again! Also gave advice for travel in South France! The lamb was not baaaaaaaaad.”
“OCabanon is a great French place with a warm and authentic atmosphere. The food is always good, and the hosts always make you feel right at home.

“This place is a fantastic French restaurant! 🇫🇷 OCabanon serves a wonderful selection of delicious 🤤 dishes 🍽️ - definitely get the Brien Cheese 🧀 appetizer with slices of Apple 🍏, Jam, and Bread 🍞, the Cheese Ravioli, and Chicken 🍗 in Mushroom 🍄 Sauce. The staff 👨🍳 is friendly and professional, the service is quick ⏲️, and the place is nicely decorated. 🛋️ They have lots of indoor seating 🪑 and the ambiance 🎶 is great. I wish I came here sooner!”
“6/11/25 was looking for a different place to have lunch and I came across this one. I loved the coziness of this restaurant. We were greeted by Debra who is the waitress among other things she does and well too! Everything exceeded my expectations and was very good. Of course, I will return and recommend.”
