Le grain de Sel

Lucked upon this place having parked in one of the very smart underground car parks in Brive - I'm a sucker for the look of a restaurant, and this place drew me in. A large patio with lots of shade in front of a large old building housing at least 2 floors of more tables. Despite being on the late side for lunch, and the place had evidently been busy, we were treated with charm and great service. The food was superb and I immediately hatched a plan to return here during the rugby season to take in a game and come back for lunch and dinner!

2 nice ladies looking after you, ensuring you to get a wunderful lunch for a very reasonable price! We entered the restaurant with the seven of us. We choosed the daily menu: steak frites with a panacotta as desert. Including 2 bottles of water and two nice bottles of Rosé [Cotes de Provence] and coffees afterwards, we spent only 182 euros. The ladies really deserved with their kitchen team our 20% tip.

You need to book - especially in December. Friendly welcome but we were put upstairs and left for about ten minutes. There are only menus - and we only wanted a single plate - and were a touch surprised to find that we had been charged for two complete menus. C'est la vie.The food is good and nicely served. Reasonable wine list.

Passing Le grain de sal just across from car park and pleasantly surprised. Charming hostess and staff and tasty food. Decent wine selection. Relaxing atmosphere and fellow diners (French of course) polite despite our very limited French.

Waitresses are very efficient, the menu for lunch was traditional, but well creatively served. Fine selection of ingredients and sauce. Only the price of table wine was surprisingly costly.
