Au Fil de l'Eau - Couze-et-Saint-Front

In the last two years the restaurant was actually closed a new owner and cook this time is open and we decided to test it. great idea that eating was delicious, much taste, local sweets with excellent delicious juice. outdoor terrace with views of a...peaceful river with escape. a good place I recommend for food lovers. portions are in the right size. the service was made with the application, even if I suspect that the waiter is a beginner. reasonable price

E and endsIn my last review I was enthused about their lunch menu for 15 €, as the quality, variety and creativity of the dishes they offered at such a rock bottom price was second to none in the Dordgne region. But when I checked their...menu now, the new onwers try to profit from the reputation that this restaurant has won thanks to their former owners. No more 'plat du jour' at 15€, now the fun starts at 32€, goes to 42€ and ends at 55€. That must be the reason why former Fil de l'Eau customers now storm the nearby 'Bastide Capraise' which offers menus starting at 22€. I have commented our last visit there, but I still regret the delights to which we were treated at the Fil de l'Eau under their fiormer proprietors.Sic transit gloria gastronomia.

I was taken to this lovely restaurant by French friends for lunch on the last day of my Dordogne holiday. It was a beautiful late September day and we sat at a table on the flower bedecked flagstone terrasse at the back of the restaurant. It...forms a shady island in the river on which the restaurant is located on the shoreline. We were charmed by the Mallard ducks swimming in the little lagoon between the kitchen and the awning shaded terrasse. The service was attentive and friendly and the food delicious. We all ordered the three course formule, which was two deep fried cones with a subtle goat cheese filling, followed by a simple slice of Dorade with a light sauce beneath it and sides of puréed vegetables, finished up with a light and airy Tiramisu, all beautifully presented. Along with a bottle of L’Ancien Curé Sauvignon Blanc and petits cafés to finish, it was a wonderful meal and the charming owner came out to speak with my hosts and wish me Bon Voyage back to Canada.

This is a beautiful restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. We opted to eat outside and had lovely views of the river which runs each side. It did get a bit chilly as the night went on but the waiter offered us a fleece to...put on which was very welcome. We opted for the €27 3 course set menu which provided plenty of choice, I started with the fish skewers which were gorgeous followed by a cod dish which they call fish soup finishing with ice cream. Others in the group had lamb shank and guinea fowl they all said their dishes were beautiful. It offers an extensive menu, the staff are attentive but not in your face and we left feeling we had all enjoyed a fantastic meal in a fantastic restaurant. A visit is a must.

Great evening! charming waitress who has declared us every court. we started with a house cocktail and a very generous amouse bouche. the two set menus or à la carte option have been added with a good wine list. very enjoyed our evening and would highly recommend. the restaurant.
