Madame and I had a really enjoyable lunch at la Magnanerie on an October Sunday, and would recommend the place to anyone. We had driven out from Montauban to have a look at Cordes-sur-Ciel, a truly fantastic fortified Cathar town on a hill in the Tarn. It was ancient and impressive, and we'd thought to have lunch up in the town but -- no surprise for a 13th-century hill town -- there was no parking anywhere. It emerged, in fact, that nearly everyone parks down the hill and walks up (a fine adventure to be sure, with the gorgeous little town as reward, but more of an effort than these two senior citizens felt able to give. In fact, we may have been the first people to drive up and then back d...
Wow. Did I say wow? The service was wonderful, that must be said, a smile and a very courteous staff really saved this place. Every chef has their signature. This chef's is basil. Can you imagine a tuna tartare with so much basil and lime that the fish could have died just from that?Basil infusion is delicious, but when you randomly throw it on every piece of food you serve, it sort of becomes horrible. Salad, meet, fish, potatoes, vegetables. Everything with Basil? Yes!The decor: bright white light, plastic wall pieces to spruce up the completely misaligned design of the chateau environment. Led lights that change colours every 3 seconds to make you feel you're in a teenage disco in the cou...
We heard about la Magnanerie by trawling the internet in search of a nice restaurant to take friends to, who came to visit us in Cordes. We have so far been quite disappointed by restaurants in Cordes, apart from one or two, so what a nice surprise to find this one! The food was beautiful - not over fussy but beautifully prepared, and all 7 of us enjoyed every single course. My dorada was superb, and the risotto that accompanied it was melt-in-the-mouth. The dessert was an amazing pistachio and chocolate Ile flottante. In addition, the service was excellent. I hope that as summer comes they will sort out a terrasse, as the setting is amazing with a fantastic view of Cordes, so in sunny weath...
We booked this on the strength of other reviews - thanks to those that had submitted them.Fantastic food, great service, lovely setting (we will return when it is warm enough to eat on the terrace).All three of us chose the 29€ deal, with a lovely goats cheese mousse Mis en bouche, starters mains and dessert. Excellent value. The waiter was great, helpful, attentive and informative, adding additional information on food choices, and recommending a really nice local Galliac wine.Everything was cooked to perfection, and beautifully presented.All in all, a great Friday night out, great value and we'll be back!

Staying in a quiet village in the area, we were trying to find our ideal local restaurant. A quick look on Trip Advisor and found La Magnanerie. We were not disappointed. Set in rolling countryside with a view over Cordes, which at night was quite spectacular.The menu offered sufficient choice and all courses were beautifully presented, If not a little different to what we expected but tasted wonderful. The waiter, who was working alone was happy to advise,efficient and friendly.This is not a cheap option but not expensive either and well worth a visit.
We can thoroughly recommend the restaurant. It has been under new management for the last nine months and they are building up their reputation. Our lunch was delicious and was beautifully presented too. It was a pity that there were not more people there that day but that is one of the main reasons I am writing this to encourage others to give it a try! We ate in the garden with its lovely views but inside too looked very pleasant and I feel sure that the food will not fail to impress.
Friends spoke of this newly reopened restaurant, so we gave it a try. Although we cannot fault the food, the ambiance lacks sparkle,and the overall presentation somewhat presumptuous. A bit of a letdown for the price.
Thanks to Yelp because I would have never found this place on my own!
Tucked away in an up and coming part of town, SSSS is everything This area needs and

I went off of my beaten path today for a new sandwich stop.
I made a Yelp account just to review this Sandwich shop.
