This is one of our go-to date-night restaurants. I discovered it during a business dinner and have…read moresince taken my husband here on numerous ocasions. We've been at least a dozen times. The menu changes regularly (daily?) using in-season produce and ingredients. I personally love it because the chefs are creative and there is always a pleasant surprise. Often I feel the restaurant deserves a star or at least a Bib Gourband from Michelin. Although sometimes the dishes are not the level of a two-star restaurant, they are always well prepared and have never disapointed. The cave is amazing with a wide selection of wines. It's fun to watch the chefs through the glass prepare the dinner. The waiter is very nice and accomodating. Do ask him for the wine pairing. We are going again tonight.

We loved it so much that we went two consecutive nights. Both nights we had a wonderful red wine, Chateau Tour Boisee. My wife enjoyed the Charolais Steak with Fries so much that she ordered it both nights. That is saying a lot for a Texas ranch girl. On the first night I ordered duck stew (cannot remember the French name). A succulent tender duck leg with cabbage and vegetables. Cannot be compared to any other duck dish I have eaten. Very nice. However, the second night was the dish I now crave. Cassoulet of White Beans, duck sausage and roasted duck. The most amazing stew I have ever put in my mouth. My mouth is watering as I type. Not only did we have the most amazing food of our entire trip but on both nights we chatted with a few very nice people. On the first night a Frenchman eyed our food quiet obviously and when he finally talked to us, in broken English, he ordered the steak. He must have enjoyed the food as well because we saw him on the next night with a large crowd. Our second night was spent in casual conversation with a Toulouse local and a Brazilian. Such fun! Our waiter had spent time in Las Vegas so he was able to converse in English. He was a very affable and busy young man. Yes the tables are close ... not unlike most French restaurants. But this helped us become acquainted with our neighbors. GO

The duck breast was nice but the fries that came with with were fantastic. The waitress told me later that they were cooked in duck fat. No wonder! I had a vanilla with cherry ice cream that reminded me of Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia but there was a healthy spash of Armagnac brandy that madeit interesting. I had to take one star away for the cramp seating arrangements outside but overall, a great place to dine and people watch in Toulouse!

Every dish was absolutely delicious. Being the black sheep of the group, I got the Seabass while my other friends got steaks. The steaks were cooked perfectly. The seabass was simply divine. It was plated beautifully atop a bed of vegetables, inviting you to enjoy every single bite. The sauce was thoughtfully spread lengthwise across the rectangular plate, which also went wonderfully with the delicious bread. The Seabass was flaky and crisp and perfect. Our red wine paired beautifully with our meals, as per the server's recommendation. The dessert was incredibly balanced. Frozen nougat with a red berry coulli. The sweet, nutty nougat was cut perfectly by the tart berry. Everyone was asking for a taste. My friends scarfed down a Nutella creme brûlée in under 30 seconds, so it's safe to say that was delicious as well, I'd assume For only €30, for just a couple hours, this restaurant was our home. I hope you feel as welcomed to Toulouse as we did.

Really great Michelin-star restaurant in the cute village/town of Quint-Fonsegrives…read more The history of the restaurant is neat: the chef apparently fell in love with the little house the restaurant is located in, right across Quint-Fonsegrives' city hall, as its architecture is typical of the region, it has a backyard where are planted herbs & more and as it is near lots of fields/crops which remind the theme of the restaurant: Nature. We had made a reservation about a month and a half in advance for a Friday night. We arrived at 8 p.m. - the restaurant isn't open before, for dinner. The wood tables and tree decoration inside the restaurant made the style very unique and again, remind you of nature. We were seated near the open kitchen so we witnessed the arrival of the Chef and his team and their whole cooking. We were asked by the waiter if there was anything that we do not eat or food allergies. I should have said that I do not like game but didn't think they would serve it (I knew they had in the past but figured they probably vary a lot their cooking). We had fish, pigeon, cheese, figs, macarons... Very original mixes for every dish. The portions were not tiny at all. Even if I'm not crazy about pigeon, I could tell the cooking was mastered perfectly. The Chef likes to decorate his plates with edible flowers. The wine served with the meal was very good. As you leave to pay, you end up in the Boulangerie of the restaurant, where we tried some homemade nougat. It was very very very good. Apparently, if you want to go have lunch there during the week, the wait time to have a table is just a week. The restaurant is closed in August. Very affordable for a Michelin-star restaurant, around 60 euros per person (VS. nearly 100 euros downtown Toulouse in other Michelin's).

T thought that I'd ordered the 4 course tasting menu, but was brought the Euro 122 seven course menu. The first dish was slices of a white fish in a citrus, herbs and oil sauce. The fish was unexciting and rather chewy. Next came raw langoustine with sweetbreads, which seemed a clever pairing, but the sweetbreads had a burnt coating which was extremely bitter. I ate it, but it wasn't pleasant. Then a brochette of pork, with a bitter seasoning that I couldn't recognise, which was completely raw inside. At this point I gave up and left. An enormous bill for an unpleasant, arrogant experience. Best avoided

It shows off tje medieval architecture. The service was fine. As to the food: I had a parrillada wich was duck, sausage and steak. The duck and sausage were incredible and the steak was very good and cooked to my liking. I came with your choice of suave I picked au poive. It came with fries and mushrooms. It was so much food I could not finish it. Quantity usually means bad quality but here not so much. The quality was there. Great value for dollar (euro in this case). The wife had a 3 course menu wicch she could barely make a dent in. The appetizer of a salad with pate was very good but also huge and filling. The creme brûlée was excellent as was her beef kabobs.

One of the finer meals I've had in France and it was worth every cent. I am impressed with how…read moreefficient and friendly this establishment is with only three people. The chef, an assistant, and the waitress who also works as the greeter. Never a pause but never feeling rushed when asking for recommendations. It is an all hands on deck operation. Short menu and in this case excellent execution. My second time having a Rossini and this place made it better. I like how they modified it for the better. I appreciate how the principal taste wasn't salt and butter. I could have drank the jus, which was fortified with cured pork. They opted to serve it with crusty bread over a crouton and it ate better. Who wants a soggy greasy crouton? The dish was balanced with full on umomi without feeling heavy. Nice sear on the filet and the foie was exquisite. I would have opted for shallots over red onions but oh so minor a preference. I went with the Galliac wine recommendation and it did go well with the beef. A tannic young wine (which I usually don't like), but leave it to France to make anything taste good. The dessert wasn't the star but no complaints with the babba rum cake. I like the fresh fruit addition which seeped into the rum. This place seems to specialize in cassoulet (not my favorite). However, if I were to try it again it would be here with duck confit. Only ten tables so I strongly recommend making a reservation. On this evening no further availability. It is easily done with a link on their website with a credit card hold. Ladies, don't wear heels unless you are a ballerina with excellent insurance. The semi-spiral staircase to the bathroom is steep with small steps.
