The best French cuisine restaurants Sarlat La Caneda

As soon as you push the door of this restaurant, you immediately want to sit in the bright and contemporary dining room or on the large terrace, in the shadow of the pergola, and far from the city's hubbub. The quality decoration rhymes with quality cuisine, and it's the case. On the menu: gizzard salad and duck breast, sweetbreads of veal with ceps, and finally a homemade tiramisu with caramelized pears and speculos. Dishes that can be eaten with a great pleasure. The carte also mixes local with international and the duck breast sauce with porcini mushrooms come without problems with the Chinese wok of gambas and squids.

The setting of this listed 16th-century building already is already worth the detour with its terrace offering a view of the facade of the Maison de la Boétie. Katia Fournier and Jordy Bordes have opted for a modern decoration while preserving what makes the room so charming: the blond stones, the pasted beams and the fireplace which adds a warm atmosphere. The tablecloth is clear: string-colored placemats placed on the white tablecloths bring modernity. The couple likes welcoming and offer a local cuisine. The idea of a menu that you compose yourself is original. As a starter, the Périgord casserole egg with its foie gras escalope is just delicious. In a dish alongside the traditional confit and duck breast, we like the red label poultry supreme and its mushroom sauce. For dessert, the chocolate fondant rivals the old Souillac's plum baba.

This former hospice of the 17th century, listed as a Historical monument site since 1977 houses a multi-faceted establishment. The place is enchanting and behind the old stones are hidden a pretty courtyard, a restaurant with contemporary and chic decor, a cellar with 200 references, an ice-cream shop not to forget a shop of local products that is mostly found on plates next to fresh market products. A spacious dining room of 150 seats is also open for rent for seminars or family celebrations. The "rêve de glaces" ice cream shop is located in an adjoining building opening onto Rue Albéric Cahuet. About twenty flavours are on offer, everything is homemade by an ice-cream maker who makes ice creams and sorbets in front of us,
