Michelin Restaurants in Narbonne
La Table Lionel Giraud
The place is named after Abbé St Crescent, who in the Middle Ages opened his doors to pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago. The arcades and bare stones may be a throwback to the distant past, but today the decor is ultra-modern, with finely crafted black and white polished concrete floors and sculptural one-piece seats. Lionel Giraud, son of a restaurant owner, is a strong advocate of locally sourced produce. An inventive chef, he honours ingredients from the most noble (Mediterranean red tuna) to the most modest (green beans) and everything in between, such as an authentic Corbières buffalo mozzarella. He is also a proponent of ikejime, the Japanese method of killing fish that maintains the quality of the meat and is argued to be more humane.

L'Art de Vivre
At this vineyard nestled in the La Clape mountains, chef Laurent Chabert sources some of his ingredients (including aromatic herbs) from his own kitchen garden, and also uses fine local produce (organic for the most part). He creates colourful, fragrant dishes, such as grouper cooked over the embers of a barbecue, braised aubergine glazed with tomato juices… The food and wine pairings draw on a selection of bottles from the estate.

Le Petit Comptoir
This gastronomic eatery with a 1930s character serves bistro cuisine with fine ingredients. If you fancy buying a bottle of one of the wines served here – there are 350 on the list, most of them local – pay a visit to the cellar!

Cave à Vin & à Manger - Maison Saint-Crescent
La Cave à Manger by Lionel Giraud proposes bistro cuisine made with top-notch ingredients from Occitanie. The food is rugged, flavoursome and spot-on – special mention for the chuck beef slowly simmered in its juices and the velvety purée of carrots. La Cave à Vin, located under the same roof, boasts 2,500 wines; pick a bottle to drink with your meal for a corkage fee. A real winner.
