"We stumbled across this restaurant when arriving in Montignac on our last night, having found our planned restaurant, a few miles away, derelict! I parked up nearby and this was the first place we found, this being our only baby free night of the holiday we wanted a bit of a “date night”. Upon entering, the friendly manager (I assume) offered us any table the restaurant was very quiet so we sat in the front. It’s a beautiful building, part of a very pleasant large hotel, and is a really nice setting for a meal. My broken French was enough to get us started with a gorgeous bottle of wine, and we ordered starters of Foie Gras and beef carpaccio, then a main of roasted local duck, whilst I ordered the entrecôte steak. Upon arrival I was greeted with the biggest and tastiest steak I’ve had in a long time; my wife enjoyed the duck and we both loved our starters as well. We finished with two wonderful home made desserts before a walk up to the river, both stuffed and very satisfied! I noted some of the poor reviews before we ordered and I’m very happy to say the experience was totally the opposite. We both said we’d thoroughly recommend the food! Perhaps the only negative was the slightly clipped style of service, not overly friendly but very efficient and attentive."
