Restaurant Le Belle Rive - Najac

The setting cannot be beaten directly beneath the beautiful Najac Fortress. That 's the end of the good part of the review. We were seated in the corner facing the wall with a half empty restaurant. When we asked to be moved they were surprised....As an English speaker 1st language I asked the waitress, 'parlez vous Anglaise? ' She answered, 'Non, pourqui? '. That was the start of an hilarious evening of observation of this very bizarre restaurant. Apparently our table was the only one served by what another reviewer described as Rosa Klebs. She had Jerry Seinfeld 'man hands ' that looked like they could ring our necks if we snickered at the wrong time. I had ordered a bottle of Bordeaux, which I had turned around to read the details. Rosa duely came over and glared at me for turning the bottle around. She then turned it around, label facing me and firmly placed it back on the table, with the implicit, 'if I catch you turning the bottle around again I 'll ....... . We ordered the 27 euro set meal, which was very disappointing. Recommend you skip the farcou. The meals came out at blistering pace, so we decided to try and slow the pace down a little. We left a scrap of food on my plate which I regularly played with when Rosa stormed by our table. I think she returned 10 tines to see the same scrap being toyed with. She knew what I was doing I was going to be in big trouble. We couldn 't eat the cheese at the end of the meal and Rosa wanted to know what was wrong with it and why we hadn 't eaten it. A really interesting approach to customer service. The food is very ordinary and it comes way too quickly (like they had a bus to catch). On top of this 'the atmosphere ' ..... it is deathly quiet. We thought our whispering across the table was going to bring an admonishment as it broke the absolute silence everyone had to endure. My wife tried to convince me that there actually was some music playing, but all I could hear was my tinnitus and the scraping of plates. I thought Rosa was going to come over and tell me to turn down my tinnitus. You 've got to wonder how restaurants like this can survive in France.

Dîner plutôt prometteur, recommandé par le guide du routard . Restaurant situé dans un joli cadre, très vert, où l'on peut observer la forteresse de Najac. En revanche, repas très médiocre ; nous avons pris le menu à 20€, prix attrayant mais on comprend pourquoi... côté entrées : jambon de pays premier prix, farçou Aveyronais sec et manquant de goût. Quant aux plats de résistance : fricassé de veau (beaucoup) trop salé et gras, riz sec. Très décevant.RAS pour le dessert. Service satisfaisant.

Déco et mobilier d'un autre temps, avec vue imprenable annoncée sur le château de Najac et la rivière mais avant tout sur le parking!! N'ayant pu choisir parmi les menus trop lourds pour la saison, nous nous sommes rabattus sur la carte, et le filet de truite à plus de 12€ qui s'est avéré être une simple darne saumonnée beaucoup trop salée et cuite. Quant à la sauce au beurre citronnée, elle était certainement d'origine industrielle, en tous cas sans aucun intérêt. Nous ne parlons même pas des accompagnements.Une assiette déprimante en cohérence donc avec le cadre et les tenues des serveurs, au demeurant dévoués et sympathiques.Très décevant...

Valorisation de la cuisine du terroir. Produits régionaux...dommage que les frites soient généralisées ou presque. Les serveurs étudiants manque de confiance et connaissance. Cadre magnifique avec la forteresse et l'Aveyron (bruit de la cascade).Service un peu trop rapide...

Nous sommes venus en 2016 à la meme époque : là tout était parfait : nous sommes revenus cette année et nous nous sommes demandés si c'était le meme cuisinier : la présentation et le service ont laissé à désirer aussi.
