I realise La Chatre is small, so limited restaurants, but that this is classified as #1 is strange. Food was OK, but definitely not worth the price. There are better choices in the region, so I would recommend searching a bit as I doubt Tripadvisor will allow me to site them in this review. The assiette berrichone , a local dish, was overbearing with liver. Rillettes de saumon OK, but not exceptional. The oysters were acceptable. The pepper steak was tough it was questionable whether or not the sauce (served separately) was house or ready-made. The local chicken was very good. As for deserts, the sauce with the Opera was not fresh home made, the Nougat glacé au Grand Marnier (ice cream) had...

We have passed this hotel many times and seen the restaurant has been busy, so when we were invited by our French friends who were staying at the hotel to come for a meal we accepted. We had great starters my wife had a mixed salad and I had the eggs in red wine sauce (which came with a spoon) I take it was so no sauce was wasted. My wife had the carbonara which did lack a bit sat but you can always add and not take away as everyone has different tastes, I had the black hen dish which was very tasty and plated very nicely with the vegetables. The deserts were nice and flavoursome. All in all a great experience and we can now say we have eaten in the hotel we pass when in France.

accustomed to this link well located in the country of george sand this last visit was rather disappointing. Are we the yummy eggs? served warm and almost hard. foie gras served too cold preventing the taste. service always as kind but too slow. It is normal to change and innovate but by at the expense of quality. '

This restaurant is part of an Hotel. My menu meal started with a terrine which was pretty bad. The main course of cod was fine with tasty vegetables. Good cheese plate dessert. The bread was stale, the service episodic and the wine forgettable. Kids friendly.
