"Hard to believe there's only 6 reviews for Le Cathare, a local institution for years, maybe a double listing somewhere. Anyway we ate here several times three years ago and rated it highly.Returning yesterday we had a very pleasant meal but were a little disappointed that the menu had changed, arguably to meet tourist demand. Gone was the meat counter where you used to choose from a wide selection of excellent quality meats then cooked on the wood fire coals - a large menu now offer only entrecote steak or lamb chops which is fine but limited to the top end set menu. We understand the "old style" menu returns during the winter months....A shame as it was for us the main drawcard.Le Cathare offers good value especially the wine list which features only southern region wines.The restaurant was extremely busy the night we dined and it showed as service was slow and things got forgotten and needed reminding....the soup never appeared at all despite being the first item on the menu we selected. I think the menu is too large and staff numbers too small but these are difficult economic times for restaurateurs. We had a pleasant evening and would return but miss our old menu."
