"This restaurant is a bit out of the town centre, but still an easy 10 minute walk over the river from the main square. (If you're driving there's a big car park outside.) Central Castres, to us at any rate, did not appear to be over-blessed with good restaurants so we were fortunate that this one was recommended to us by the proprietor of the Hotel Renaissance and we ate there two evenings out of three. Brasserie Marso is a well run bistro with welcoming, efficient staff and traditional French brasserie decor on two floors. You may need to book at busier times of the year (05 63 35 79 30)."

"A restaurant we highly recommend!! A delicious and gourmet cuisine worked with fresh and regional products. An irreproachable service. In addition to our daughter having the chance to be able to do a cooking internship with the brigade she came back with her eyes full of stars. So thank you for everything and for your welcome. Promise, we will return as possible."

"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."

"Having read the reviews I was expecting great things out of this restaurant but was very disappointed on several counts but let's start with the good point. First I really appreciated that the waitress told me the wine I had ordered was a sweet wine which I was happy to change to a dry one. Second, the food did have great flavours and was well presented. The bad points, we arrived and were then served an amuse-bouche but did not have anything to drink because they hadn't taken our drinks order. Next, the risotto was served with a pouched egg but mine still had the egg white running and my wife's was over cooked. What annoyed me most was the waitress stated when I told her that "it was cooked like this", what one over cooked and one under cooked. Her attitude was not one of customer service and I wasn't complaining as I only left the egg. Next we had Tuna and for the first time in my life it was cook through, maybe that is the way they do it! Sorry but this place did not live up to its Michelin star"
