le lion d'or - Reservar una mesa

I have several times noticed the Lion d’Or when walking around the pretty little town of St Geniez d’Olt and thought it looked attractive and a nice place to lunch so this time I tried it. On a very hot day we ate outside the terrace, a nice area immediately outside the large smart but on this occasion empty dining room. It was pleasant, shady and comfortable They had a series of menus from the menu de jour at €16 to a menu gourmand at €36. We had a midpriced one. The description of each dish in the menu was flowery and a little overblown, and when they came they looked very elegant.

I have never stayed in the Hotel only eaten in their restaurant, which I have to say is splendid.

Very enjoyable evening. The staff were welcoming and found us a table on a busy Friday evening although we hadn’t reserved. The restaurant was lively with a varied clientele. Menus were at 22,29 and 39 Euros. We chose from the middle and had a chèvre starter and fillet of fish main course. I then had an excellent selection from the cheese board while my fellow diner had a delicious crème brûlée. A jug of water was brought to the table without having to be requested and we ordered a delightful white wine from Estaing just up the Lot valley. The meal was a marvellous example of a traditional French restaurant serving well cooked food. We considered it to be excellent value for money.

Had an amazing 4 course meal with my parents. The garden is nice and our table was in the shade. Very pleasant waitress and extremely reasonable prices for the quality of the food served. I highly recommend the Golden Lion!

Fabulous €23 menu (four courses) with a bottle of local rose wine at €14. We ate in the garden which was lovely. Attentive staff.
