Beautifully situated among the vines of the Vallée du Lot, Le Callau is artfully considered, with seating under the trees or in a re-purposed barn or recently completed dining room/bar area. Chaz, his wife and their team take great pride in their 'farm to table' philosophy. Each server is well versed in the gustatory selections of the moment, and service is always warm and welcoming. Children of all ages find the interior courtyard interesting to explore, with its fountain and ever-inviting weeping willow tree. A walk along the country lane after an interesting, satisfying meal, prepare one for after dinner desserts and/or drinks. "Casual and VERY classy" is how the experience is best described. For example, I arrived with 3 elderly guests, all with some mobility issues, and Chaz immediately brought out padded chairs from the dining room as he recognized that old bodies would have a difficult time sitting for any length of time on the typical 'minimalist' patio chairs that are usually found outdoors. (We were in for a 3-hr lunch, so this was a great idea)!! Le Caillau is a 300-year-old wine domaine, and the complex includes a luxury 2-bedroom suite, including private swimming pool and garden. (NOTE: We have dine there many times, but never stayed overnight, so cannot speak to the accommodations, other than saying EVERYTHING is tastefully decorated and service at all levels is impeccable). Reservations are a must, but, in order to enjoy the experience fully, come when not pressed for time. This is a place to relax, enjoy and experiment with new epicurean delights! Attached are some photos, but photos at LeCaillau com are superior. Enjoy! This is a most memorable experience.

My fiancé and I had lunch there the day of our engagement, so it has a special place in my heart. The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful. We visited Saint-Cirq in late May - so before high tourist season - so we were able to be seated immediately. The menu was great. So many of their dishes sounded delightful, it was hard to pick just one. Overall, the meal was absolutely delicious from our appetizer to dessert. The prices were also very reasonable. I would highly recommend Le Cantou to anyone visiting this beautiful town!

Wowza! This is…read moreseriously one of the best meals I've had in my lifetime. Alex, our server/host (and co-owner!), was truly fantastic. He gave us a tour of the beautiful restaurant and the outdoor patio. This place is truly stunning! The menu was delicious. We opted to do the set menu, which includes 3 courses. It was very well-priced and the food quality was UNBELIEVABLE. The appetizer we chose was a delicious soup with mushroom ravioli and smoked duck. Our main course was a mouth-watering local fish that was in this delicious Thai, lemongrass sauce (with rice noodles!). The dessert was this chocolate fondant cake, similar to a lava cake, and it was one of the best things I have ever tasted. I left feeling full, happy, and excited to visit the area again so that I could have another delicious meal here. Make your reservations NOW! This place is a gem. Thank you for a great experience!
