Le Chateau des Arenes

It was the first meal he ate entirely!We ordered foi gras and snail, both were delicious and again nicely presented.For main courses we opted for beef and deer, the sauces they came with were just right, not overpowering or too weak, they complemented the meat just perfectly.

I reserved this restaurant for a lunch meal with a customer. I wanted somewhere serving good French cuisine at a price that would not embarrass the customer, and where we could easily sit and talk business. The restaurant fitted all those needs very well, keeping the meal within budget, and having an atmosphere and a presentation that was in keeping with the business needs.The service wasn't perfect, but was acceptable and friendly; The overall verdict is that this is a place I could return to for a business meal, a romantic meal or a family meal. I was pleased to have discovered this place.

I have eaten at the Chateau twice now - once for dinner and once for lunch. The meals have been exceptional on both occasions. The restaurant is well positioned and appointed with great staff. I would not hesitate to return again for my next meal out.
