Contribute Feedback What Suzanne Schneider likes about Rodriguez Robert:
We did not feel up to the award winning, multi- starred Cantine de Robert. However, literally across the street is an amazing Italian run by the same person, with the same chef but more affordable. The maitre d' (Christophe) is utterly charming and incredibly enthusiastic...about both the food and the wine served. He's also incredibly knowledgable. I ate the best pasta of my life (and I've eaten a LOT of pasta) with... View all feedback.
What Élodie Roger doesn't like about Rodriguez Robert:
We chose this restaurant because The Lonely Planet rated it their "Top Choice" in Carcassonne, but it is the last time we will consult that book. Our meal here was disappointing at best. The smoked salmon entree was nothing special. My Scallop dish consisted of THREE scallops in their shells buried in finely chopped vegetables for 34.50 euros. My wife's lamb sweetbreads were forgetable. Without dessert, our total was... View all feedback.
The night we visited it was empty, save for us, but made up for ambience with memories of a bygone age, too many to mention, antiques of all sorts in every nook and cranny.The menu was short, but comprehensive and the cooking and presentation, first class. Wine list was lovely, if pricey, but excellent choices.All in all a memorable evening.
What a wonderful find.A party of 3 people, 2 pescitarians wanting a nice slow evening meal on a Monday in Carcasonne. A little bit of a task, as Mondays often see the local establishments closed.It was BEYOND our expectations. The servings are generous. The service sublme, the restaurant perfect. Not one thing could have been improved.
Organic fruits & vegetables, best quality products from local people who are mostly good friends of Robert and share the same taste for quality. A great meal for whatever you diet is. Do not be in a hurry, stress not accepted here. Good choice of local wines as well.
This is a highly idiosyncratic restaurant. It is like being a gust in someone's rather odd house. You have to ring a bell to be allowed in. You are shown in past the kitchen to a tine restaurant. The room itself is a collection of interesting old bric a brac and has a lot of character and charm. When we were there we were the only on locals. The menu is limited but the food was of a really high standard. My wife is vegetarian and she really enjoyed her main course. My chicken was also excellent. The desserts were sublime. The evening was a real experience - in a tourist town like Carcassonne where little care is taken in most restaurants and everything is over priced we felt that this was probably the best and most memorable restaurant in the town - if you are looking for really good food, served in a one-off environment in a very French way. I am sure it is not everyone's cup of tea, which is why it is certainly not bland.
Robert is a bit of a food genius. He describes himself as a flavour combination specialist. And he is - A limited but sufficient menu, always varied and always remarkable. A real find. The atmosphere is calm bordering on quiet. The decor is fascinating, items from French culinary history going back a hundred years including the first french electric ice box fridge. Great selection of wines. Its a secret I'm reluctant to share.
