    Very good meal with a little lack of heat for the main course. On the other hand, we certainly arrived 30 minutes early but our order was only taken 30 minutes later without asking us if we wanted to have an aperitif without a small appetizer. Something we did at the same time as ordering the menu and we had not even finished the aperitif when the first course arrived. I had to disturb one of the 2 servers who were in the preparation room sitting with their phones to have my glass of wine brought to me even though we were alone in the restaurant with one other person. Not very responsive, even if it is not motivating in the event of very low attendance (3 people). See it all again after your vacation….

    We have just left this restaurant with a bitter taste for the quality/price of the dishes. My son ordered a dish for €36 (so normally at this price there is no room for error) but the plate was almost empty, a mash that was way too salty cut with mash, a piece of meat (very small pieces with tendons 😬) I had chose the dish of the day: monkfish, small portion of fish, way overcooked and no taste, even inedible puree (which I gave to my son, because he was hungry after his €36 dish) sauce reduction really too strong because way too reduced and recooked or cut with too much chemical magic. I added two stars for the desserts which were very good and reasonably priced 😮‍💨 Service really not great. Too bad they have an ideal setting, and the place is meant to be warm.

    We knew we would be arriving later in the evening at Sarlat, from a long trip from Denver, Colorado, so, to ensure we would get a meal that evening, we made a reservation with the restaurant at 2000...
