Le Brassens - Carcassonne

There was an immediately warm, family-like feeling when we came to dinner - 10 minutes before the opening time, the restaurant was dark inside. only then came the owner/cook to open the door, and immediately they knew that we were the couple who had called to make a reservation. the lights went on, we were invited, and we went on to have a wonderful meal. all that the cook does is fresh, you guys were a charming host, and the waitress was great. a bottle of corbieres made every bite, and we have learned a lot about local cuisine, cheese and wine. plan to come back a few more times before they return to new york.

We had a lovely dinner at le Brassens, we had viewed the restaurant on tripadvisor however as the menu changes we had no idea what to expect. It is down a quiet side street (open on a Sunday! and there were 3 options for each...course. The chef Michelle is very accommodating as we had a vegetarian in the group one of the starters was suitable but a main course was created and it was delightful. All the food was lovely and homemade, no frozen gimmicks when it is gone,it’s gone. The three courses are very reasonable at €20 however you can get one or two the wine and beer is also very reasonable. It was very busy so we had to wait at times but it was not a concern as we could see they were busy and enjoyed the atmosphere. The staff were lovely and even the chef came to converse with us when things had quietened down. We would go back!

Tucked away in a quiet street in Carcassonne’s bastide is this unassuming gem. Named after one of my favourite singers [but without any of his music] this is a delightful, home cooked, classic French restaurant. Set menu with some of the tastiest food imaginable. Starters followed...by main courses chicken or asian beef our night and exceptional dessert. Charming front of house service that simply exuded a welcome including our son and dog and the presene of the chef herself. Wonderful, memorable food in a night to remember. Thank you!

Really great food prepared and served by the loveliest staff prepared to go beyond the menu to accommodate. Would highly recommend and will definitely return before we go home , can't go wrong!

Not a vegetarian restaurant but when I emailed they offered starters without meat and omelette. Absolutely delicious, very fresh with a quirky variety of flavours which worked. So good we're coming back again tomorrow - well worth a visit.
