Auberge De L'ady - Speisekarte

We were taken to the Auberge by some French friends. Can't really say anything bad about it....food, service and value for money all very good. They have a good a la carte plus several fixed price menus ranging from a very reasonable lunch menu at €20 to a very good tasting menu at €72. Definitely worth a visit.

We live nearby. We come hear 2 or 3 times a year, and have always enjoyed it. However, we were both surprised at how Cédric continues to improve. We have eaten in several restaurants étoilés this year, this is as good and in some respects better. The wine list is more extensive now, although we tend to stick to our favourites. Oh, and they have some new knives that are superb.

Pulled into Valady around lunchtime on our trip through France. Found the Auberge. What a hidden gem! The resturant was well set out so that one did not feel crowded. The staff were attentive with great service. We had the midday menu of 3 courses. The food was to die for, and as each was served the waiter explained what was on our plates. Overall cost with wine and coffee was a remarkable EUR50. Lovely setting, great food and service. Who could ask for more? Speisekarte ansehen

We visited with friends who live in the Aveyron. It was an exquisite lunch of many courses, with unexpected mini-courses in between the courses. I suppose my favorite course was the pre-appetizer of four canapes, one per person. And, I always enjoy the ratafia. We left full, but not too full because all of the courses are intentionally of moderate size to intrigue rather than overwhelm diners. I look forward to going again. I'll attach photos to offer samples of our repast.

We are very lucky. We live only five minutes away from this place where Cédric manages to produce some wonderful and original food. We have been with friends, à deux on Valentine's Day and New Year's Eve. If you ever have the chance try and get there. The choice is not enormous because everything is cooked that day. The wine list has some great wines chosen for their taste rather than their name. The dry white Pacherenc du Bilh is just wonderful. Don't be fooled by the uninspiring exterior, just get in there and enjoy it.

This was not my first visit but it will probably be my last. As always, the food was beautifully plated and nicely served but, as opposed to my previous visit, the chef forgot to attach significant flavour to the dishes. In the taste department the flavour of the fishy starter could well have been compared with a reasonable quiche from a local Boulangerie and the interest of the salmon in the main course had lost its way upstream. Nice cheeses and a passable desert though. Maybe a chef's day off? It felt like a lack of interest in the kitchen. Speisekarte ansehen

My husband I came here with a French speaking English friend who recommended this restaurant. We were on our way to Rodez airport and it was a good stop over for lunch. The 3 course and 4 course fixed price lunch menus were 18 Euros and 20 Euros respectively, the latter included a cheese course. This was exceptional value for beautifully cooked, well presented and deliciously tasting food. The food was simply to die for and we ate every morsel on the plate. For 2x 3 courses and 1 x 4 course our bill came to 101 Euros, so whereas the food was cheap the drinks were not (e.g. 1/2 bottle of red wine was 20 Euros, 1 bottle of sparkling water was 6 Euros) nevertheless for fine dining this is still...

We happened to be in the Marcillac area, exploring the various wine caves of the region, and landed up in Valady around lunchtime, having no previous knowledge of the village or this restaurant. The exterior of Auberge de l 'Ady is not particularly promising we weren 't even sure if it was open but the interior is a revelation with a very pleasant and airy, marble floored dining area. Suffice to say that we enjoyed an excellent lunch and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone. We will certainly be returning. Some of the comments of other reviewers are interesting . We note that some describe it as pretentious. We would disagree: certainly the announcing of each course could have been consid...

Situated in a quaint red stone village in the valley of the Ady at the heart of the Marcillac wine region this restaurant is part of an old Auberge but has been renovated to provide a contemporary space with a cool pleasing ambience. We were nicely greeted and shown to our table with our dog. Aperitifs were speedily offered together with menus. The menu of the day at 19 euros sounded good and we didn't want anything too heavy so gave it a whirl. The result was amazing a veal tartare with Asparagus Gaspachio and preserved celery was stunning. The follow up of Lieu with two sauces of light mushroom and pesto was excellent as were the accompanying crispy crepes containing a mushroom and shallot... Speisekarte ansehen
