What a lovely surprise. Small restaurant, lovely decor, lovely staff and equally lovely food. Do they a very small menu, which they frequently change. It facilitates making choices and also I imagine it is much easier for the restaurant to ensure fresh food.Their produce is mostly bio, including their (delicious) wines. We had a shrimp salad to start with, followed by a rice and turkey dish, finished with a nougat ice cream. It all tasted really wholesome. When the bill came, we couldn't believe our eyes. 73 euros for four people! So including our tip it was 20 euros a head ! A fantastic bonus: even though the portions were plenty for me, I had not put on a gram of weight the next day and that is a first after going to a restaurant ! Chef and staff: well done ! Keep it up, as we will be back.

Having visited France every year for 35, our restaurant French is adequate. The stereotype of rude, haughty treatment of Americans has not been our experience in many years until we encountered our server and apparently proprietoress, Sandrine, at Auberge des Bouviers. She could not understand a simple request for "un demi pichet de vin rouge et un quart de vin blanc". Repeating this four times unsuccessfully, we were off to a bad start that only went downhill. One of us had chosen this restaurant to try pigeon. It was on the a la carte chalkboard. "Unavailable", as well as another of the advertised 4 plats, Sandrine huffed in rapid French. Although we were first to arrive, other diners were served before us. The food was adequate, although comparatively overpriced for the region. The duck croquette entree was dry. The chicken was good but unimaginative. Desserts were delicious. However, our poor service colored enjoyment of our meal. In contrast, while in Lectoure for a week, another night we ate at the Auberge's one-week-only summer tapas "bodego", informally set up on the street behind the restaurant. Food was interesting and our server, Laurent, greeted us with a welcoming smile and graciously translated a few unfamiliar French words on the carte. Bottom line: Pass on the Auberge. Every other restaurant in Lectoure welcomed us and treated us courteously.

This restaurant had been recommended so we drove over to Lectoure to eat dinner there. The hotel is down a very narrow side street in a hotel with two buildings facing each other across a flagstoned courtyard inside a wall. We hadn't made reservations (it was a Tuesday night) so there was some deliberation before we were seated in an elegant dining room. Ceilings were very tall, windows were luxuriously draped in flowing gold, wallpaeper was a traditional floral pattern of golds, beiges, grays. Small round talbes were set with crisp linens and place plates were a lovely French pattern of white with blue and white narrow-striped rims. Interestingly they sat us at a table set for two (we were three) and then went to get the tghird place setting. Since they had made us wait for a table, why not finish setting it before seating us? That sort of conveys the approach of service, which on one hand was efficient and on the other a bit "ditzy".We began with an amuse bouche served in a small shot glass with a spoon that was a mushroom soup with thyme. It was lukewarm although I'm not sure it was meant to be and my husband had about 3 thye stems, not leaves, in his portion. The garnish was finely chopped hazelnuts which was good. Two of us got the menu so had a second course that was a rectangular plate of pieces of msoked herring with a horseradish cream and oyster mushrooms. This was followed by roast duck, slices of duck breast that were more chewy than they should have been though they were served in a wonderful cherry sauce with cherries for garnish. This was accompanied by a butternut squash puree flavored with mace, very creamy and delicious. The plates were also beautifully painted. The dessert on the menu, called Mont Blanc, was not successful in my opinion. It was a small round of thin sponge cake with a thin layer of white chocolate on the bottom; this was topped with a layer of chestnut puree and then a conical mound of meringue and served with a couple of drops of cassis coulis; the wole thing was too sweet and too much of one texture. The chestnut puree acdtually detracted because there was not enough contrast in texture or flavor. One of us got fish, nicely prepared, and what they said was their house-made ice cream which was relaly more like two round scoops of chocolate mousse that was very fluffy and not at all cold. This was curious because they made a big production of taking individual metal freezers to other tavles to scoop out the ice cream for their specialty, prune and armagnac scuffle. At times we had several serves at once and then there were long periods when they simplly disappeared. Overall nothing was terrible,, the dining room was elegant, the food was at times disappoingint and thus I found the price point high for what was delivered.Dir Sir,unfortunately, we do not understand all of the message because our english is not perfect enough but we want to assure you that we are giving every day our best with our teammembres. If you did read other comments, you would have seen that most of our guests are very pleased after taking meal in our restaurant. We will take good notice of your comment and hope we will see you once a time again.Best regards
