"The Mediéval occupies an 11th-century building built on the left bank of the Agout River; you enter from the first street to the east — the door is a few steps below street level. We chose this restaurant because one of our party had been here ten years ago and had a very positive memory of it. We weren’t disappointed. Its name refers both to the date of its building and to its ambience: the room has a vaulted ceiling supported by arches, thick walls, an old wooden cabinet, and some medievalish decorations. The main room holds about fourteen tables; a further couple of tables are in an adjoining alcove, and a porch overlooking the river allows a couple of small tables, used seasonally. The tables are placed fairly close to one another but the feeling isn't quite cramped, especially as only four other tables were being used. The white tablecloths and sturdy chairs enhance to the comfortable feeling. We were greeted warmly for lunch, and the daily specials were explained to us. The 17€ menu of the day seemed good value. There were no choices. It began with a light and tasty fish mousse on salad greens with vegetables; this was the most creatively conceived and interesting part of the meal. It was followed by a "plat" of turkey with a particularly notable mushroom gravy and mixed mashed potatoes. The dessert was pears in a rich caramel cream. As others have noted, the portions are generous. Nothing could have done better, though I’d reinforce what another reviewer says, that with the gravy, mash, and caramel cream dessert, this was by no means a low-fat meal. Good crusty rolls were given us and replenished. We included a bottle of recent Gaillac wine, modestly priced. Service was quite friendly, but, as other reviewers have noted, sometimes a bit slow, since the staff is small. (Accordingly, I've rated the service "average", but it was much better than average in warmth.) We were in no hurry, though, and didn’t mind. Given its pleasant setting and and comfortable room, the friendliness of the staff, the good value, and the very interestingly conceived and well prepared (though rich) food, I’d recommend the Mediéval to others."

We were recommended this restaurant by our hotel and when we arrived it was only half full. We were given a choice of 2 tables and then menu's. After time and then a couple of questions the menu's were changed to the English 'version' and from then we were ignored. After 20 minutes we left. Total lack of service can't recommend at all.

Fantastic meal in a unique little restaurant. We dined on a freezing cold Thursday night in January. The restaurant was quiet and we were one of only 2 couples in the place. Our starters of mussels and goats cheese were perfect and our main courses of duck with herbed de provence and fish in a creamy leek sauce were fabulous, followed by creme catalan and coffee. With a bottle delicious red and a glass of house white wine the total bill was €89 which was fantastic for the quality of the food. Our hostess is a talented artist as evidenced by the fantastic charcoal drawing or her grandmother and the chef Monique is remarkable. Do give it a try. It will help if you have a little French. A fabul...

The vaulted ceiling gives this restaurant a special old time feel. There are seats on a balcony over looking the water but meals are served outside only if the owners feels the weather or the number of clients warrants it. One lady cooks, the other serves. At any rate the interior is very nice and the food is a good value. Salads were tasty and very fresh, and our meals were good. (Fish and entrecôte). Service was the only thing we thought needs attention. One of our party was served his steak while we were served our salad. Then for some reason (the restaurant was full), we waited too long for our fish. By the time our meals arrived, our guest was finished and had to wait until we were done...
