We go to this restaurant on special occasions, the most recent was our wedding anniversary. The service is always great- e.g. they remember which table we like to sit at- and the food is always excellent and timely. Plus they are happy to vary menu items to suit me e.g. I like to get one dessert with the sauce from a different dessert instead of the normal sauce. The venue itself is also very pleasant- it is a good place to get a bit dressed up for. The only negative is that because it has been there for over a decade, the chairs are getting a bit uncomfortable and more lower back support would be good.

As always, a pleasant evening, with good food, a touch of France. Great service. We've been to Ardeche many times, and always enjoy ourselves there.

A favourite of ours in Canberra. The proprietor is an amazing host and the meals are always of exceptional quality. Only a small restaurant, but it has been around in Canberra for many years and survives where many have failed. If you want to feel at home and enjoy a fabulous meal in unpretentious surroundings, this is the place to go.

Consistently great food - a real gem in that regard. Service certainly could be snappier and friendlier, but that is forgiven once you get the dish. Great place for a date.

We are from Sydney, we where looking somewhere to have dinner, we looked at the black outside Ardeche, we where not sure if it was the restaurant for us, then a good looking men with a French accent came and said hello and we knew it will be ok to have dinner in this restaurant.

The food service, it was just amazing, we are from Sydney, Ardeche will make some top restaurants in Sydney second rate.

We will tell all our friends this is the place to come when in Canberra.

Ardeche we love you. John and Dee.

Nice outdoor setting overlooking leafy trees and pleasant music at a sensible volume. I chose a special (prawns and scallops which was advertised at $20 on theblackboard. My bill was for $36. When I queried this I was told $20 ws the entree price. On checking teh balckboard it did not say entree or offer alternative prices so the waiter should have told me. They took the bill, obviously re considered my view and did reduce the price. Thefood was delicious but few veges ( 2 sprigs of asparagus) with my fish.

Having just returned to Canberra after 9 years away, and many trips to Europe, especially exploring France, it was refreshing to find Ardeche, not 5 minutes walk from where we live. Last night was our 2nd visit and we were not disappointed. The menu was different to our previous visit last month. This will become our favourite restaurant in Canberra. The only complaint I would have is not enough French wines on the wine list!

We have eaten at Ardeche a number of times whilst living in Canberra and always enjoyed the food and service. We no longer live in Canberra but come back to visit family, so decided to rediscover Ardeche. We were no disappointed, the food and service is still excellent, and recommend it for a delicious meal in a relatively peaceful environment. Reminds us of the typical restaurant/cafe you would find in France. The venue could do with a bit of a make over though.

If you want a decent meal right in Civic, Canberra in French style then you can't go wrong with Ardeche Restaurant. Cappuccinos and flat whites are very good too! All for very reasonable prices for the quality of service and freshness of food. You won't regret!

A good solid and authentic French provincial restaurant. Not in the Michelin star league and it doesn't try to be. The food is honest and true to it's origin - you will find this sort of restaurant all over France, serving good tasty local food.
