A word from the trattoria
An Italian restaurant in the Vieil Aix, Place des Cardeurs
The Vieil Aix is the historic, pedestrian heart of Aix-en-Provence, made of narrow streets, small squares and terraces where it is a pleasure to wander. It is exactly there, on Place des Cardeurs, that Di Micheli set up its family trattoria. Open since 2021 and run by a team of five passionate people, our table offers contemporary Italian cuisine, a stone's throw from the monuments and shops of the old centre. Whether you live in Aix or are just passing through, you'll find here a simple, warm spot to have lunch or dinner in the middle of the Vieil Aix.
Our signature remains the Neapolitan pizza: a dough fermented for 48 hours at 70% hydration, baked for a few seconds in a wood-fired oven heated to 450°, for a soft and easy-to-digest result. Alongside the pizzas, we serve homemade fresh pasta, antipasti and Italian desserts such as tiramisu. Everything rests on a deliberately tight menu and fresh produce, with no frozen pasta: fewer dishes, but the taste of homemade cooking on every plate, in the spirit of Italian trattorias.
The Vieil Aix is also a district where people gather, and our table is well suited to it. Our private dining room seats up to 24 and our terrace 20 more, perfect for enjoying the atmosphere of Place des Cardeurs. Family meals, birthdays, corporate dinners: we put together tailor-made menus for your moments to share, right in the heart of Aix-en-Provence. Book your table in advance for busy evenings and for groups.
