“ In dem kleinen gemütlichen Restaurant unfassbar gutes Essen. Sehr netter Service. Die besten Fisch&Chips die ich je hatte und eine legendäre Paella. Immer ein Ausflug wert ”
“ Auf ein Kaffee angehalten. Wurden dann zwei. Nette Besitzer. Viele Grüße von der Radlerin ohne Schuhe und Helm : ) ”
“ Excellent place to eat at, incredibly friendly and humourous proprietors that served a nice and somewhat uncommon dish as lunch. Makes you feel like you're a regular that've been coming there for years. Just be sure to call them beforehand (especially if you've got a large party) so that they've got time to prepare as they are short-staffed. ”
“ The owners of this restaurant were lovely. The food was delicious, roast chicken, salad and pasta. We enjoyed our lunch after a long bicycle ride and it was perfect. The owners speak English, German and of course French so it's a great place to go if your French is a little rusty (like mine!). We wish them all the best in their business and envy their beautiful spot in a beautiful part of the country. Recommend without hesitation. And yes! We found the cool spot and swam in Lac Codolet ”
“ One of the most pleasurable lunches I've had in all of France, and that's not an exaggeration. The owners were friendly in a way that made it feel like coming home to part of the family, joking with us and sharing stories, and providing a very generous serving. I will gladly come back again! ”
“ Fantastic food, fantastic owners, great place for a lunch, beer, wine or coffee.. ”
“ What a lovely little surprise in the small village of Lirac. I stopped to admire the church and fountain and was immediately drawn in by the warmth of the owners. The service was excellent and friendly and I felt like I was in my kitchen at home. Lunch was exceptional, the chicken with cream sauce, mushrooms and veggies was well prepared and wonderfully seasoned and the rice was perfect. I loved the atmosphere on their small patio and they had a wonderful house red. I'll absolutely be stopping by again when I next come through. ”
