Our region is well known for great local cuisine. If you are here to enjoy it, the following restaurants should not dissapoint you. Please keep in mind that most of the very best restaurants are not in but around Sarlat.

1.	Le Quatre Saisons 05 53 29 48 59 Sarlat 2 Côte de Toulouse Center of Sarlat	Considered one of the best in Sarlat: creativity and imagination of the chef, culinary quality, incomparable mix of traditional and modern taste, original and sometimes exotic plate presentation. Lamb not to be missed.
2.	La Treille 05 53 28 33 19 Vitrac 2 minutes from Le Petit-Manoir.	The chef was born and raised in Vitrac but worked all over the world, absolutely superb food, Périgourdine with an international touch. One of our very top.
3.	Le Roi Carotte 05 53 29 82 33 Saint Julien de Lampon 15 minutes east of Le Petit-Manoir	Great family owned small town restaurant, relatively unknown, but able to rival the best in its category. Fresh products, home-made dishes, nice and rustic ambiance. Worth a small detour.
4.	Le Bistro de l'Octroi 05 53 30 83 40 Sarlat 111, Avenue de Selves Just north of center	Overall excellent quality from a well-known family of restuaranteurs, varied menu with regional specialties. Nice terrace, good value for money, open year round, favorite of locals.
5.	Le Grand Bleu 05 53 31 08 48 Sarlat 43, Avenue de la Gare Near the Sarlat train station	The only restaurant in Sarlat with a Michelin star. The menu is very refined but quite short, the plate presentation perfect, the service excellent. Worth a visit just for the experience.
6.	Les Prés Gaillardou 05 53 59 67 89 Vitrac 3 minutes from Le Petit-Manoir	On the road between Vitrac and Cénac, on the right. Excellent overall, the Salade de Gésiers is to die for.

9.	Le Presidial 05 53 28 92 47 Sarlat 6, rue Landry Center of Sarlat	Located in a magnificently renovated old royal justice palace, Le Presidial is worth a visit just for the magical and romantic setting.

10.	L' Esplanade 05 53 28 31 41 Domme 10 minutes from Le Petit-Manoir	In the heart of the medieval Domme. Little more expensive than others, with a breathtaking view onto the river and the valley below, trying to earn back it's Michelin star. When it comes to food the words that come to mind are: sublime, unreal, fantastic.
11.	Le Petit Manoir 05 53 29 82 14 Sarlat 13 rue de la Republique Center of Sarlat	Not related to us in spite of the name. Located in a beautiful old building in the heart of Sarlat, the owner is French, the chef originally from Vietnam and the food is Périgourdine but with an Asian flavor. Very interesting and excellent quality.
