On the outside the restaurant presents itself as a Cave á Vins and the walls are lined with wine bottles. So it was surprising for us to find out that there was only one red wine that we could get by the glass. Anyhow we decided to try the one available wine with a three course menu, and it was a rather good wine. Local French wine which inself was a little confusing since the interior, and the music, made us believe we had entered a Spanish restaurant. Two excellent entrées assured us we were on the right track: an Aumônière de filets de rouget sur lit de poireaux à la crème and a Brioche bouchon tiède crème de champignon. Both of them arranged rather playfully on the dish, but the taste an...
Very pleasant helpful staff but the food varied from very good to awful! We went twice obviously the first experience was so good but on the second visit my husband’s entree dish was a disaster! Virtually inedible. It was obviously something the chef was experimenting with. It sounded OK cauliflower with mascarpone and crevettes but the actual dish was anything but OK. Such a pity because up until then our opinion of this restaurant was very positive! Most of the dishes being served to adjoining tables on both visits looked wonderful. Overall our opinion would be to say that this place is well worth a visit. It just proves that a review is dependent on what you experience on one visit!
On the day visited this was one of the few restaurants open. Don't know why. Must have been one of those obscure French holiday days !!. We chose the a la Carte menu and wanting to be adventurous I chose something I had never ordered before. Didn't have a clue what was coming !! Bad choice ....it was offal. I couldn't eat it and left the plate full. The waiter was insistant that I choose something else so I went safely for a steak which was excellent. Surprising they did not charge me for the offal. Well recommended and bon appetit !!
The waiter was outstanding. The restaurant was full and he was alone. Still we had no complaints about the service or the food. Good kitchen. The locals eat here.
Great food, very French, lovely service and good selection of wines. Will have to come back next time we’re visiting Foix.
