La Taverne Du Coq sur Julienas

We left the restaurant with mixed feelings. The service was rather peculiar: the welcome wasn't warm at all, they didn't offer us water, and they made it clear we shouldn't linger too long because the kitchen closes at 9 pm. The dishes were good (the rooster and the poultry were delicious), but when the menu specifies "vegetables" and you're served a miniature carrot and a 2cm² piece of leek, it's a bit disappointing. Similarly, the €11 cheese plate was meager (not even a walnut, a lettuce leaf, or a small chutney to garnish it): four tiny pieces of cheese. As for the ambiance, the background music was very chic, but it clashed with the very basic decor. On the other hand, the restrooms were very clean. In short, we found the meal expensive for what we ate (nearly €130 for a set menu + one main course + cheese + wine). We do not particularly recommend it.

The initial welcome was quite cold, and we almost left, but after breaking the ice, we were seated and had a very good meal. It's a shame because, apart from the initial reception, the service was excellent afterwards, and the quality of the food was top-notch. I would still recommend it, though, as it might have been a matter of personal preference or bad timing, since we arrived late due to traffic (but we did let them know we were going to be late to make sure we didn't arrive to find a closed door).

High-quality cuisine and a warm welcome

A friendly and welcoming atmosphere, all around a good meal 😊

Impeccable welcome and service. Good value for money.

Thank you for your hospitality, the meal was excellent 👍

Moust expensive potato pjure in all Europe. We get just potato pjure.

One of the best restaurants during my road trip in France! The food was truly excellent, with carefully prepared dishes that were innovative yet respectful of tradition. The wine list was excellent. I'm vegetarian, so what I appreciated most was that they had a fully vegetarian menu available, without having to request it. The lemon dessert was incredible! The staff was extremely kind and knowledgeable! The atmosphere was intimate and romantic. Highly recommended! Reservations are absolutely essential.

Following a recommendation from another restaurant in the neighboring village (it was fully booked that day), we received a friendly welcome and were able to get a table for two at short notice. The food was very good, although the main course was a bit lukewarm in my opinion. It tasted and looked wonderful. Some might have found it lightly seasoned, but I liked it because it allowed you to taste the individual ingredients. The wines were also good, and the recommendations matched our personal tastes and the menu. Very friendly service. Reasonable value for money.
