Le Derailleur sur Clermont-Ferrand

17/09/2026: We had dinner for four people and everything was very good. There's a waiter who speaks Spanish and that helps.

06/09/2026: Here, you don't just come for dinner: you enter a religion, a religion of honest taste, straightforwardness, and uncompromising local produce. Forget understated plates, lukewarm concepts, and cookie-cutter menus. In this establishment, seriousness is in the food. Meat is celebrated with the authority of those who respect it, braise it, and love it wholeheartedly. From the moment you cross the threshold, the welcome sets the tone: wit, conversation, a generous laugh, and that human warmth that instantly puts the world to rights. The bottle of red wine, round and deep, clatters onto the table without any fuss, ready to withstand the onslaught of raw and sincere cuisine. Everything makes sense, everything has substance. Here, you rediscover the rare and supreme pleasure of leaving satisfied, your heart pounding, your memory vivid, buoyed by a culinary integrity that has become so rare. And when the time comes to conclude this feast of dreamlike banquets, the old plum brandy reigns supreme: sovereign, radiant, undeniable. This is no longer a restaurant, it's a citadel of integrity where the diner is respected as much as the land that nourishes them. A rare, essential establishment, where life simply has flavor.
