The restaurant is themed around the culinary specialities of the southern regions of France offering hearty dishes such as Roquefort Cheese Soufflé, Fish Soup, Traditional Cassoulet and using the best of local produces as well as French ones. The wine list is extensive and is suitably representative of Languedoc, the largest of France's wine producing regions and has been awarded AA Notable Wine List for years.

An oasis of France in a city centre. French cooking, French amity with style but no snobbery. We have been going for over 20 years and love seeing new faces, fleeing jaded junk, finally to find the real French touch. I've been passed and wanted only a sandwich and immediately was given a delightful plate of real food. And we've taken parties of 8, in a private room - just sizzling. Parfait!

Lovely restaurant. Quiet enough to have a conversation - no loud music dominating, great! Portions are not huge - fine for me, but perhaps not for those with bigger appetites. Nice friendly service.

Great to meet you all on Saturday night. We both really enjoyed the whole meal; the gnocchi was described by Núria as orgasmic :D and the scallops followed by the lamb I ordered were both first class. We thoroughly enjoyed the service interspersed w/conversation throughout our evening. All the best, Nick & Núria
