Fuimos a Carcassone y nos encantó, este restaurante lo encontró mi esposo y decidió llevarme a celebrar mi cumpleaños, me encantó sin duda alguna una experiencia gastronómica, pero debo decir que desde la entrada al lugar ya es una experiencia la decoración, la atención de su personal y que decir de la comida, recomiendo ampliamente el menú signature, cada plato era más delicioso que el anterior y aunque en un principio el tamaño de platos te da a pensar que no será suficiente, si lo será, sin duda ha sido uno de los mejores restaurantes a los que he ido. Caminar por Carcassone en la noche es un espectáculo lo iluminado que está, la tranquilidad es una experiencia muy diferente verlo por la noche sin nada de personas, fue muy romántico. (Translated by Google) We went to Carcassone and we loved it, my husband found this restaurant and decided to take me to celebrate my birthday, I definitely loved a gastronomic experience, but I must say that from the moment you enter the place the decoration, the attention of the staff and what to say about the food is an experience, I highly recommend the signature menu, each dish was more delicious than the last and although at first the size of the dishes makes you think that it will not be enough, if it will be, it has undoubtedly been one of the best restaurants I have been to. Walking through Carcassone at night is a spectacle how illuminated it is, the tranquility is a very different experience seeing it at night without any people, it was very romantic.

A lovely place richly decorated. Setting was beautiful. Service impeccable. Sommelier very helpful! Servers prompt and doting but not intrusive. The cheese trolley was amazing! The whole experience 5 stars. But… food does not wow you. They had everything else except great food. It was good but did not keep up with the standard of everything else Good to visit to experience a 5star service and setting but don’t expect the same from the food

Il ristorante si trova all'interno dell'Hotel de la Cite' assai rinomato per il servizio e la location lussuosi e meta di celebrità del mondo dello spettacolo. In realtà il locale non mi è sembrato all' altezza della fama di cui gode l'hotel , per quanto il servizio sia efficiente e curato. A partire dagli arredi, dalla boiserie molto pesanti con tende e tappeti e persino tavoli e sedie degni della corte di re Artù, la scelta delle pietanze non lascia molto spazio all'immaginazione potendo spaziare tra un menù di stagione e uno di firma diciamo, più creativo, comunque gourmet. Le stesse pietanze possono essere poi servite alla carte. Se doveste trovarvi nell"imbarazzo di non saper cosa scegliere perché in effetti, la limitata offerta del menù non dovesse convincervi e il languore permanere, resta sempre il Piatto forte: una composizione di formaggi che in Francia, non possono mancare. Bon appetit !!! (Translated by Google) The restaurant is located inside the Hotel de la Cite', very renowned for its luxurious service and location and a destination for celebrities from the world of entertainment. In reality, the place did not seem to live up to the fame the hotel enjoys, even though the service was efficient and attentive. Starting from the furnishings, from the very heavy boiserie with curtains and carpets and even tables and chairs worthy of King Arthur's court, the choice of dishes does not leave much room for the imagination as it can range between a seasonal menu and a signature one, let's say, more creative, still gourmet. The same dishes can then be served à la carte. If you find yourself in the embarrassment of not knowing what to choose because, in fact, the limited offering on the menu does not convince you and the languor persists, the main dish always remains: a composition of cheeses that in France cannot be missed. Bon appetit!!!
