La Bellone - Saint-Adjutory

Good to find a quality restaurant on our doorstep. Very accommodating, attentive staff. Not an extensive menu but well presented and prepared from fresh ingredients.

The appearance from the outside is that it is closed, even when it is not! It IS closed all day Wednesday, plus Tuesday and Sunday evenings. The street-facing glazing is dark and there are none of the usual boards outside. See photo! We agree with the previous reviewer regarding the high quality food, but found the service, whilst at first not over friendly, warmed up as the courses went by and we were rewarded with a slight smile as we chatted with the lady owner whilst settling up. The daily 3 course menu at 13.50 offered goat's cheese salad, three kinds of fish as a main course. cheese and an apple tart. Menus at 23 and 29 euro are also offered. One of us had the daily menu and the other the upmarket 23 euro menu with a couple of choices such as fish soup and duck. Both were very good quality and value, with the portions more than adequate. The restaurant decor is French country style with a very high ceiling, so the big space is not overly atmospheric, especially as yesterday, when it wasn't crowded..But go for the food and we believe you won't be disappointed!

Six of us went out to lunch here, when we were staying with friends nearby. We were welcomed warmly and shared the restaurant with another, larger party, celebrating an 80th birthday. Nonetheless, the service was excellent and in no way did we feel we were being left out. There was an appealing and varied choice on the menu and our lunch was delicious and well presented. The restaurant doesn't try to be too smart and it doesn't need to be, as much of its appeal is in its comfortable atmosphere. None of our party left disappointed quite the opposite and we would certainly return here.

Delicious. Homemade deserts, super friendly welcome, cheese really good. Opened nearly every evening and really non expensive lunch. And if you are vegetarian and call them a day before they will make something special for you. The owners absolutely love what they are doing.
