Hotel Restaurant Le Tournedos

I never thought that this sort of place still existed. Family run; all home cooking; brilliant and friendly service and amazing rapport qualité-prix. Four of us had a three course lunch (plus an extra terrine course thrown in) including quarter of a litre of wine each and coffee for 75 euros.I cannot commend this place more. A Tuesday midday - it was heaving with people - there must have been 60.Go there while you can.

a really vintage hotel, simply almost rustic, door in the bathroom would not close, but it was clean. we were booked by our autorettungsdienst, they were told that a diabetist was in the party and we would need food, sad when we checked...in we were told that the restaurant was full and there were other restaurants 10/15 minutes to foot in the city, we did and there was, naiw we had thought that the inhabitants had access to the restaurant, live and learn, live and learn. as with free wlan it was only at the reception and since we tried to organize the return of our car life was difficult.

Still not made up my mind a week after a very pleasant overnight stop. The room was comfortable, clean with a good ensuite and air con. Surprisingly also had tea and coffee making facilities unusual for French hotel especially budget ones which this fell into...but with a bit more personality than one of the chains. An evening meal in the hotel restaurant and patio area, also open to the public, ranged from 14.50e to 25e. The latter being 4 courses which included a delicious home-made terrine hep yourself from a bowl, and an enormous entrecôte perfectly cooked. A demi-pitcher of local rose was so good another turned up! All in all a good stop-over.

we were with the family in a small village near carcassonne and they brought us to this restaurant, which is also a hotel. When we arrived, we were the only ones in the dining room. we ordered drinks and then chose our meals. because our French is not the best and her English is just a little better, we decided not to have a starter and order our head. I chose tournedos au poivre, or filet steak that is cooked on wood. it was phenominal! probably one of the best steaks I've ever had, and I eat a lot of steak on vacation. the only side was the ones who were not the best. to complete everything when the Dessert menu arrived, my favorite at all times was there, rum baba, years since I saw this...

The title of this review is ENTIRELY positive. We've eaten here several times and this was the first time we have not ended up at the end of the evening feeling completely 'stuffed'. The reason? We shared a starter then shared a cassoulet de la maison! The food choice at Tournedos is really good, with local dishes served up in traditional French helpings. It is very hard to resist and dangerously addictive. With good wine by the carafe, good service, a welcoming wood fire for cooking the meats at the end of the dining area and very reasonable prices for menus and 'a la carte', you just can't go wrong! Wednesday night in late April and no empty tables - only us and two Dutchmen were non-Frenc...

This was our third visit. Our first two led us to the conclusion that the quality of the food more than offset the rather average accommodation but this year the accommodation was very poor indeed. To be specific: the toilet seat was loose and there...was a leak from the base; the shower took ages to heat up; the shower head fixing was broken so we had to shower holding it with one hand; the shower tray filled up and the floor of the bathroom became soaked. The shower problems were reported but the only response was that we should let it run and it would heat up it did to be fair but the other issues made for a less than pleasant stay. That said, the restaurant was superb and we’d go there f...

I was staying locally at Fontfroide Abbey and although this was 10 miles away it was worth it. I booked in for five evenings and to eat a four course meal with wine for 24 Euros was a find. Not only were portions generous but the quality and service were excellent. Compared with a local up market place I had visited another night, this was a place to return to.The service was friendly and the food in the best tradition of regional cooking. Helpings were of a decent size and this may be because the town hosts a rugby club which is celebrating its centenary! The local were friendly and it was clear that they came here in numbers and it did not depend on the tourist. The most delicious starter...
