My spouse and I dined at La Table du Terroir on a Saturday
evening in early September 2017. The restaurant is open Thursdays through
Tuesdays from 12:00 noon until 2:30 pm for lunch, and again from 6:30 pm until
10:00 pm for dinner. (Hours may vary seasonally.) We reserved our table on the
evening prior to our visit by stopping in at the restaurant. We stayed nearby
at the Villa Lara, and it was less than a 5-minute walk to La Table du Terroir.
La Table du Terroir, whose name translates to “The Table of
Wine”, offers both indoor and outdoor seating. Outdoors, you can dine on its
large awning-covered side terrace that offers a glimpse of the main street,
which is pedestrian-only during the summer months. Inside, you can dine in the
bustling front/main dining room with window views, at one of two booths in a
private nook across from the drinks bar (which does not offer stools at which
to sit, as a bar in the US would), or in the large rear dining room.
The restaurant serves classic French cuisine. As our starters,
we ordered the huitres (oysters) and the gratinee onion (onion soup). For our
main dishes, we shared the poelee St. Jacques (scallops, carrots, mushrooms,
pasta) and the rognons de veau (kidney stew with frites). We finished our meal
by sharing an order of pain de perdu brioche (bread pudding) for dessert. For
our food and three rounds of drinks (beers and sodas), our bill totaled about
100 Euros.
Although we liked the atmosphere and service at La Table du
Terroir, our main dishes were less successful than our starters and dessert.
