A small wooden house under its giant tree houses this emblematic gourmet address. Why Panisse? In homage to Marcel Pagnol. In fact, you'll find posters of Raimu and Pierre Fresnay on the wall. Some consider it one of the best restaurants in the U.S., because Alice Waters is a pioneer of locavore and organic gastronomy. She discovered Provence in the 1970s, fell in love with it and in 1971 created this little jewel of Californian cuisine with accents of the South of France.

Food is delicious, service is great but it is very expensive. We were hungry after 2 hours of having lunch there.

We finally visited the sacred birthplace of "Californian Cuisine"! We were at the cafe which is lively and beautiful. The dishes are refreshing, on the lighter side. The use of citrus in salad and even the meyer lemons bits in the sauce topping on chicken brighten the whole meal. The dish that hit me the most though is the personal size chocolate cake. You need to order in advance with $25 price tag but it is worth trying. You can taste the quality right there! Next time we would like to come trying the full experience for a special occasion :)
