La Dariole
Michelin Recommended restaurant in a 15th-century half-timbered house near the cathedral, with a seasonal menu that changes often and reasonable prices.
La Dariole is in the old town of Orléans, near the Sainte-Croix Cathedral. The restaurant is set in a 15th-century half-timbered house with a rustic, atmospheric feel. The current chef trained here early in his career and has now returned to run the kitchen. The menu changes often with the seasons, in a style somewhere between traditional and modern, such as pork chop with potatoes and caper sauce. The Michelin price category is €€, and the lunch set menu is good value. Open only Wednesday to Saturday; seating is limited, so phone booking (+33 2 38 77 26 67) is recommended. About a 5-minute walk from Place du Martroi.
