This is definitely a restaurant for a special occasion. Everything about it oozes style and quality, from the building itself through the décor, the service by a knowledgeable Maitre D and of course the food. Located along one of the main roads leading out of the town of Marmande, it had only been open just over a year when my wife and I visited it in September 2012. There were two menus available for dinner, a four course menu at 42€ and a more extensive one (menu saveurs) at €60. We opted for the latter and enjoyed a splendid seven courses cooked expertly by Annabelle Boat. We were told that Annabelle had trained in Talence, near Bordeaux and at restaurants nearby.
An amuse bouche consisted of melon with mint, sautéed fish ball with creamy vegetable emulsion and a chopped vegetable pate. The starter was pan fried foie gras with a crumble of red fruits and rice flower. This course was highly unusual and exceptional. Next there was a dish of squid horns stuffed with finely diced vegetables cooked in stock and accompanied by octopus. The whole thing was set off by a magnificent fish sauce. A fish course of monkfish served with crispy polenta, tomato, garlic, basil and olive oil which also came with deep fried fennel. The crowning glory was milk fed veal which just melted in your mouth and served with a highly reduced jus, carrots and onion cream. A selection of cheeses is included and we had Roblechon and Tombe. The sweet course was a trio of ice cream in a soufflé coat, a very tasty rum Baba and a chocolate coffee mousse. There is an impressive range of coffees depending on your preference for light, medium or strong.
There is a good list of Bordeaux wines and some from Provence if you prefer Rose. Most are in the price range of 15€ to 25€ but there are more expensive bottles if you are a wine connoisseur or want to try out the more prestigious labels.
All in all a very fine dining experience produced by a young chef with a real love for her profession.

Why not? Because parking further along the canal adds hugely to the enjoyment of visiting this wonderful restaurant allowing you to approach on foot by walking twenty minutes or so along this beautiful stretch of waterway. You will appreciate the walk back afterwards. This is not a restaurant so much as a dining experience but I am sure the proprietors would not be so pretentious to call it such. We went with friends for lunch on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and had simply one of the best couple of hours eating delicious food and enjoying watching the boats go through the canal lock immediately in front of our table. Being a bit of an old sea dog it was hard to stop myself offering the boaters some "helpful advice" as they appeared to struggle with the finer aspects of seamanship. No advice needed for the owners of the mug and jug - they know what they are doing. Hard to beat anywhere in the region.

6. Restaurant Les Glycines

Reviewed By baltyingbrummie - Birmingham, United Kingdom
Open on a Sunday (not to be taken for granted in France), Les Glycines has an almost sixties/seventies vibe with its swimming pool, Terrace and vibrant colours..one could imagine Roger Moore or Sean Connery sipping cocktails with a glamorous female companion in tow.
Too be frank, things didn't start too well as, apart from being briefly offered aperitifs, we had to wait approaching half an hour for somebody to take our order...not a crisis unless, of course, you have a lively but hungry two year old to entertain for all that time.
In fairness , when we were served, the manageress / owner was charm itself and we were all given an extremely tasty amuse bouche.....a savoury take on a pannacotta. All four of our party had opted for the set 19 Euro menu with starters of fried egg on chopped ham or a tomato and mozzarella salad, both being tasty and in good portions.
Main course options were salted cod (a local speciality) or rolled shoulder of lamb which was tenderness itself and literally fell apart at the first approach of cutlery. This was served up with broccoli, mini turnip and a savoury souflait.
Desserts were equally impressive with my choice being a delicious walnut cake served with coconut ice cream. The alternative was an excellent pannacotta served with a strawberry jus.
Overall an excellent meal but that wait....

Reviewed By AussieSteveR - New Jersey
Restaurant is located in a historic building in down town Marmande. I visited this place 3 times. Service was exceptional and food was fantastic. We sat outside for the first 2 dinners and then inside on the last. If this was in Paris you would pay a fortune for this quality. The waiter and chef both gave recommendations for the wine to have with the meals, and were spot on. We met the chef and owner on the second and third meals and he is very informative and shows the passion he has for his culinary offerings. If you are in this area don't miss out. My last meal for 4 people was just over Euros 100, which I consider an exceptional price, and included a special red wine that is only supplied to this restaurant from a local vineyard.

The food and service was excellent and the place was quite busy, even on a Monday night (although everywhere else nearby was closed). The €12 menu appeared good and the cassoulet/magret de canard we ordered were both excellent. BUT we discovered later that our wine from the local co-op had been marked up to 4 times the retail price!
9. Les Pizzas de la Bergerie

Reviewed By Ron S - Oswestry, United Kingdom
We found this establishment completely by chance. It is just on a roundabout in an industrial estate on the outskirts of Ste Bazeille. It is between Ste Bazeille and Marmande. We were intending to order a take away but decided to sit in the comfortable Seating in the quite plain dining room. These people put their effort into the food and not the surroundings, but the staff are extremely pleasant and the service was fast and pleasant. We had two pizzas. One Barbeque and one Italienne, with red wine and followed by a delicious ice cream. Both pizzas were delicious, not greasy and had all the ingredients stated on the menu. The wine was excellent, the whole lot coming to a very reasonable 32 EUR. Whilst we were in there two gendarmes came in and collected 6 pizzas for them and their colleagues. Gendarmes certainly know where to go for food, and if it is good enough for them it is certainly good enough for us. The surroundings are quite simple but everything is clean and well-done and yes they do cook the pizzas on the premises.
