Food in Occitanie, France

Route de Laguiole, 12210 Laguiole, France

“Extraordinary. Eighteen hours later and my wife and I are still swapping notes, backtracking through the menu and reminding ourselves of the different courses, the explosion of flavours and textures, the attention to detail and other parts of this unforgettable experience. Just wonderful.”

2 Rue de l'Université, 34000 Montpellier, France

“Great food, service, and ambience! We tried the sandwich and a plate. The food was super fresh and tasty. Prices are decent. I highly recommend.”

41 Avenue général Leclerc, 66000 Perpignan, France

“Even though free tap water is the norm in France, this restaurant served us bottled water for 4,50€. I suspect it was because we were foreigners and asked for an English menu. The food was good but the portions were small.”

17 Pl. Dupuy, 31000 Toulouse, France

“Great food! From the starter to the desserts. Good wine selection too. A must-go in Toulouse”

Chem. du Phare, 11370 Leucate, France

“A culinary experience worthy of the 1 star Michelin! The chefs manages to delight and surprise with every meal. Too few waiters made the wait between the meals a bit long at time, but they tried to accommodate as well as possible.”

22 Bd Carnot, 65200 Bagnères-de-Bigorre, France

“The best price/quality ratio you can get here in Bagneres. Been there three times and never been disappointed. The market’s menu is truly the best option if you are looking to get a quality lunch here in the Pyrénées”

7 Av. Mal Joffre, 66120 Font-Romeu-Odeillo-Via, France

“The service was simply bad. The waitress brought my plate without telling me it was burning hot, I burned my finger and told her, she laughed and said she was carrying it with a towel so she couldn’t know. Then we ask for a water refill, it took 15min and she brought gaz water when we were drinking still water all the time. And overall the staff was unresponsive. The food was good. Not exceptional but good and interesting, 4 stars. But the service was the worst I had in a long time”

Rte de la Crouste, 66140 Canet-en-Roussillon, France

“What a great place!! The food is undoubtfully prepared with love and passion for the ingredients and cooking in general. But even more important, the host and his crew are devoted to give you a great experience: They are passionate about their job, which ensures you have a great time. And, also important, it’s great value for money. Even the wines are mostly below 30€ and the crew can help you out to pick one which meets your taste. Great food, great atmosphere, great service. Keep up the good work team, cherish what you’ve got going on here! X”

Rond point de la Liberté, 68 Av. Général Leclerc, 11100 Narbonne, France

“We had the pleasure to dine at La Table Saint Crescent in September 2023. We are both avid diners and have been to many of the World's greatest restaurants, therefore my review takes past experiences in similarly rated French/Modern Cuisine restaurants (Michelin 2** and above). The overall experience was very positive. Pros and Cons : _Food_ +*Presentation of the dishes was noteworthy, well arranged in a harmonious way. Delicate and inviting. +* Quality of the foods was to the highest standards. Local yet adventurous Combinations kept it interesting. +*An extra point for the map with the regions and explanations on the menu which made it clear and the whole experience more immersive into French local culture and cuisine ! - The cheeses were disappointing, very small selection was made and contained a few that we asked not to have at the beginning of the meal. Of course, we tried them ! But to no avail... It lacked in quantity and diversity but not quality. - The desserts, despite being very delicious and delicate, we feel paled in comparison to the dishes. They were too simple and sometimes sadly quite dry. It could do with more decoration so to speak, preferably the edible kind. A big downrank for us on this. _Service_ +*Pace of service was impeccable. Timely, not rushed, not too slow. Very good. We suspect this is done with aid from cameras or very very attentive staff. +*Friendly yet professional. A more relaxed approach than some places that can seem "up-nose" none of that here ! - The cutlery is not changed at each serving, this goes only for the main "steak" knife used (which is a beautiful Laguiole) but we found this strange. If we leave the knife on the plate, we desire a new one. _Atmosphere_ +*Nice decor, fresh despite the high temperatures outside. The ceilings are very high and spacious. Clean, balanced and open. - Maybe a bit simple for some if you are into lavish decor for a date or such. For us, we care not and are all about the food and service. Please keep in mind this review is fairly harsh as it takes into account previous experiences and we compare this to other 2** Michelin and above only. This restaurant, I am confident, far outshines any other in the region.”

37 Rue Croix Baragnon, 31000 Toulouse, France

“We stopped in for breakfast. The patisseries were great and the drinks that were delivered were excellent but two drinks were forgotten and one never arrived at all! (Despite some gentle enquiries) I think it was just a mistake, the service was otherwise friendly and efficient! The pastries really are excellent - maybe just stick to the take away option…”
