There's no doubt that, on such an evening, this terrace of a fine old building is a truly lovely location. The food is certainly good, but not outstanding, but the service was delightful. A little formal and traditional, but attentive and helpful with enquiries about the dishes. BUT (and it's a big BUT) we were just unlucky; sitiing there enjoying the peace, just the two of us, and a party of about a dozen people arrived, with four or five children who proceeded to colonise the whole area, turning it into a playground. Is it my imagination, or are people (parents that is) totally de-sensitised to the feelings of others these days? They clearly weren't interested at all in whether their little darlings were annoying other diners, but just glad to let them run around haywire so that they could get on chatting. Neitrher did the restaurant people think to say anything. Strange; I know the current trend is to indulge children to the nth degree, and never tell them off or give them instructions on behaviour, but this was really unfortunate in such a lovely spot. Anyone else have this kind of problem?
Service was impeccable. Offered a choice of table made very welcome and given lots of help understanding the menu. The wine list was also very good with lots of local choices and we were given great help in making our choice which was an excellent local Viogner. All the food was very good. We had the Marinaded Salmon with wild fennel, Monkfish with Seafood Sauce, and Cassoulet. The cheeseboard was a trolley all in good condition and the Desserts were also great. The building itself is very old and full of character. Just a lovely place to eat great food and feel pampered by the service.
Our first night in Carcassonne and we decided to stay local and try the lovely place. Rustic, shabby chic and full of charm. The food was amazing. Fresh, hot, super tasty and served by the most attentive staff. Great value for money and will definitely be going again. The waitresses were always keeping an eye on our glasses and made sure they were always full. A perfect evening...apart from forgetting the code to unlock the hotel door. Fortunately, the waitress Chateau St Martin came to our rescue again and got it from another diner.
This was very French. White table cloths, petit glasses, traditional dishes and the ambiance of a mausoleum. The wait staff were courteous and attentive and the dishes well presented and pleasing but not inspired. We left feeling underwhelmed by the experience.
This was fine. The location is very pretty. Service very attentive if a little pretentious. The food was ok, the wine superb.
