L’Ostal is a Provencal restaurant rooted in history and tradition celebrating the cuisines of Southern France & its boundaries. Stemming from the old Occitania language, the word ‘ostal’ refers to house & the warmth of hospitality that encompasses welcoming one into your home. Throughout the six dialects of this language starting in Catalonia, stretching through the Languedoc into Provence and onto the Alps of Piemonte, they all embrace this welcoming through their cooking. We celebrate the traditions of each country through their amazing cuisine as well as showcasing the wine and heritage of indigenous products. We look forward to bringing our warmth in hospitality & dining to the great community of Darien, Connecticut. Welcome to our home at L’Ostal.Outdoor seating is available, but only offered weather depending, and reservations can be made day of, only over the phone, starting at 2pm on the day of.

    Great experience for Valentines Day. Our waitress was top notch!!! I believe her name was Emily. She was very knowledgeable, professional and very pleasant. My fiancée shared that she was pregnant and even though we didn’t want dessert, she surprised her with a plate that said congratulations w/desserts on it. She also brought out two champagne glasses with ginger ale in it. I thought that was very thoughtful of her to do and I was very pleased with her service. The food was pretty good. The porterhouse and the lamb was scrumptious. Will definitely go back for the experience. I also like how the brought out roses for all the ladies for Vday when the check was brought out!!! Very cool!

    We asked to sit on the quieter side and were pleased that we were able to converse normally. Our waitress was excellent and besides being very responsive and friendly she brought our attention to a prix fixe option that was not listed on the menu. Food was very good and we left very satisfied with our experience
