Absolutely full to capacity with parties and local french workers....and no wonder. Wer were shown to ourctabke by a very pleasant young woman who told us to help ouselves to our starter from the buffet and explained the main course, only four to choose from but included fish and meat dishes. So far we went to a buffet stuffed with salads and meat...late, jambon eggs, carrots the list goes on ....and on...and on, lovely and fresh. After we had eaten ourcway through our starters, that would have easily satisfied as a main course our waitress brought our food. I had poem and it was perfectoy cooked, husband had beef, cooked just as he'd asked for. Desserts were the usual fare, nothing to rave about but perfectly adequate.All served with wine for the princely sum of €14 what fantastic value. So if you want good food, in a comfortable clean restaurant, served by nice people, and if you don't mind crowds, this is definitely the place to lunch. You'd need to be there at 12 noon or reserve your table, otherwise you won't get in. Good luck and enjoy ....we did

We were going shopping to Limoux on a Saturday and as it was 1.15pm we decided to chance our luck.

Main course of the day duck or lamb or beef today . Everything was delicious and with wine included it was €14 each. Amazing and the desert

The restaurant is very popular and seems to be full every day it is open. There is an outdoor area and a kind of sun room as well. Enough seating but also many visitors. The food is authentic hearty and home made. There is not really a menu but more a choice of dishes. You start with an apéro called Kir, then a selection from the salad and charcuterie buffet and they offer you wine and water. There is a choice of 4 main courses and they all looked good. I chose Paella and my husband the Grillade. One thing you need to know about France when they offer grilled meat. It often comes just like that meat and pommes frites but no sauce. If that matters to you, don't opt for the Grillade. Finally a selection of desserts to chose from and a good coffee. It all together set you back for 14 Euro per person. Incredible value we though! It is suitable for groups and the two waiting staff were able to handle over 80 people with a flair and a smile. If you are in the area, don't skip this place!

The lunch consists of a help yourself buffet, a choice of at least 4 main courses, at least 4 sweets and coffee (including decaffinated which is quite rare in France). There is am indoor area as well as an undercover outside area is very popular with locals as well as a few tourists. There is usually a queue outside at 12 noon so I would recommend getting there early to be sure of getting a seat in your preferred area. A local aperitif is served on arrival there is a choice of red or rose wine, all included in the price of 14 euros per person. Wonderful freshly cooked food, friendly waitresses excellent value. We visit here at least once a week when we are in the area thoroughly recommend it!
