We've been going here on a reasonably regular basis for some years now. When we first started going it was one of the most consistent restaurants and an oasis among the cheap and cheerful places that litter La Jonquera. Unfortunately, on recent visits we've noted that, whilst still pretty good by LJ standards, the quality of food, service and overall satisfaction has definitely started to slip. The latest visit was a case in point. Despite them only having a grand total of 16 covers that evening, we had to wait 20 minutes to place our order, then a further 40 for the starters to be served, despite the fact that one of them was a salad, and the other smoked salmon. The wait was not quite as bad for the main, but it had clearly been left lying around, as my wife's cod was stone cold by the time it arrived. Service was both rather mechanical, and totally unfriendly and unsmiling....something we've noticed a few times at Els Fogons recently. It was as if the waiting staff were doing the bare minimum, and doing us a favour by serving us. There is nothing inherently wrong with the food here, but if that was representative of a fairly quiet November evening, I shudder to think what it's like at busy times these days. So my advice would be that they should smarten up their act a few notches, and, for goodness sake try to make their customers feel welcome and valued, as opposed to a burden.!

We called them beforehand because we were going to be late for French standards (14:00 lunch). No problem, they said, and indeed!We had a booked table in the garden, great menu, great wine (which you can take home in a box they provide if you don't finish it), great service (superfriendly waitresses). No complains at all, we had a great time!Merci beaucoup nous sommes très heureux que vous ayez passé un bon moment parmi nous Mon équipe et moi même vous disons a très bientôt

With the many excellent reviews this restaurant has received we expected a lot. We arrived latish for lunch (2.30). Our menu de jour (14.50E) was good, but certainly not outstanding. We had a choice of just 3 desserts - perhaps they'd run out of options. Service was pretty average.

Set in the hills this restaurant is clearly very popular with Spanish and French people. We were really fortunate to arrive just after midday and had a table on the terrace overlooking the hills. The view is amazing. The food is brilliant. Nothing fancy but beautifully cooked. I had the lamb and my husband chose the wild boar. Both were delicious. Arrive early for a seat. The bill was very reasonable and you will not go home hungry. Will definitely go again

We actually live only about 40 minutes' drive from Maçanet de Cabrenys, a tiny Pyrenean village just over the border from our French village into Spain. Maçanet is a lovely, lively village, with a great old-fashioned Spanish-style café and a beautiful medieval church. Surrounding scenery is gorgeous. La Quadra is a hotel-restaurant in the heart of the village, which, despite its remoteness and its small size, boasts at least a half-dozen eating places. Yesterday was a gorgeous early fall day, so we made a special trip to Maçanet to try La Quadra out. And we're happy we did! You have the choice of a prix fixe menu at about â¬21, with plenty of choice for each course. Or you can have the so-called tasting menu for â¬27, where, after a little amuse-bouche, there are fixed starters of cod carpaccio followed by seafood cannelloni. From there, one passes to a main course to be chosen among maigret de canard, roast lamb shoulder, grilled sirloin, and a hake casserole with prawns, squid, calamari, and mussels. We both chose the last. And finally, there is a big choice of desserts, including pears baked in coffee, which we chose, along with a plate featuring small portions of four of the restaurant's classic desserts. Service was excellent, rapid, attentive, but not obsequious or too fast. The restaurant filled up, surprising at a Tuesday lunch, but evidence of the restaurant's reputation, given that it is not on anyone's way to anywhere. In retrospect, I wish we had taken the daily menu at â¬21. I found the fish cannelloni and the seafood "casserole" to be too similar, all in a predicable if good tomato-based sauce. This is a very fine village restaurant but not a spectacular restaurant, based on our meal choices. Next time -- and there will be a next time very soon -- I want to pick and choose among the starter and main course offerings, to give myself more variety and the restaurant more opportunity to excel. Some of the offerings made my mouth water: casserole of escargots; courgettes stuffed with Roquefort in a mushroom sauce; stewed cuttlefish with meat balls; baked veal cheek with mushrooms; and several others. House wine was drinkable, setting pleasant, table linens perhaps too informal. Opening hours adjusted for the French clientele over the border, with lunch beginning as early as 1230, with the Spaniards and Catalans arriving after 130. Dinner begins at 730pm. A very very good experience overall, to be repeated.Thank you very much for taking some of your time and sharing your opinion. We appreciate very much your positive comments.We all look forward to welcoming you back to Maçanet and to our Restaurant La Quadra in the near future. Joan and joana
