Auberge des Tuileries - Forcalqueiret

We had visited this place 15 years ago and were a bit underwhelmed then. But it has come on leaps and bounds. It is now elegant with sophisticated and delicious food. We ate here a few times recently and really enjoyed it.The compressed melon with mint starter is just fabulous. The alternative mini-omlettes was also very tasty and very well judged. The fish main course has an excellent sauce. The lamb main course is perfectly cooked. And the desserts very fresh especially the strawberry tart.The staff were beautifully turned out, very helpful and very professional.We're just sorry we hadn't come back sooner.

I can't say enough about our experience here.... thefood was amazing ... the wine was suggested by the staff and was the perfect compliment to our meal. I had fuax gras and filet ... everything was cooked perfectly and wasdelicious. The staff were top notch and made us feel as if we were regular customers who lived just down the street. The owner, Christian, introduced himself and was very accomodating of my terrible french. The prices for the quality and level of service were low, I would expect to pay mutch more for these kind of standards.I will definitely be back !!

We visited the Restaurant twice during the summer. Once for Lunch and then for Dinner as a party of eight which included children.On both occasions the service, foodand ambiance was excellent and the menu at €29.00 was varied and well presented.The only thing that spoils the pleasure of eating at Les Tuileries is the mark up on the cost of the local wines. I appreciate that nobody is going to sell wine at cost price but the price hike on local wines is too high. We had 3 bottles of Chabert Rose at €33.00 a bottle which pushed our overall bill up to €413.00.Top Tip; Do not happen to leave expensive sunglasses behind when you dine there as they will not be there in the morning when you return to collect them.

Our lunch here was the result of a wrong turn on the autoroute, we were hungry, and I checked tripadvisor for a recommendation. My husband and I both had the menu of Poissons Panaché (mixed fish and muscles with a vegetable sauce) and dessert (I forget the name, but it was like a blueberry clafoutis with extra egg). We did not have any wine as we were en route. The dining area was a glassed-in outdoor patio of sorts looking onto the garden and was very pleasant. Inside was a cozy-looking dining area with stones an a fireplace. The outside when you arrive is a bit plain by comparison to the inside and garden dining room. Inside is very nice and it looks like they've done a very nice job renovating an old house (house is likely an understatement as it is large and has three layers of roof tiles, indicating it was built originally by someone with quite a bit of money for the era). Only nit is that the sauce for the fish was a little salty, but we had just left a beachside city where we ate mostly grilled, plain fish, so it may just have been perspective. If you're in the area, it is a nice spot to try.

We arrived on a monday evening 8 pm. Only two tables to be served in a gigantic room. The small room, the cosy one in the old building was not open, so the only two tables were served in the festivity or ballroom.We ordered the 28 euro menu. each a different plate to taste all of what was good. The salmon was raw and i was missing some spices on it. The 'egg' starter was oke, but very heavy on the stomac The main course 'cochon' was very tastefull, as the other plate with 'maqueraux'. The chief cook should use more spices in his cooking as there was a lack of spices and mainly salt and pepper. Btw, the latter was not on the table and as service was not in the room, we had to take. I presumed service was also done with an apprentice, so she still had to learn a lot, as opening a wine bottle......and serving in and not out of the glass.The choco mousse as dessert was delicious, as the ice cream with berries.Overall oke, but never again on a monday evening.
