Brasserie Oscar — Restaurant in Sarlat-la-Canéda

Actually I don't know who Mikelef Jean-Luc is, but at No. 5 rue de la République is Oscar's Brasserie. After spending four weeks in Le Bugue and realizing I have eaten lunch at Oscars at least three times a week I don’t know that I need go farther in this review. But here is what I know: It isn’t fancy, nor expensive. They serve lunch only excepting a couple of nights a week in July and August when they serve dinner too. Wait to be seated. In summer or a sunny day in the fall make a reservation for the seats under the grape arbor looking over the river. Their house rosé won the gold medal in Bordeaux in 2016. It’s 2.1€ for a small carafe good for two glasses. The country paté with foie gras is 2.9€. If this place was in my home town, I’d never have to go to...

The staff is friendly. The damen who helped us could even speak English. She was very friendly, so was the owner of the place.

There was no music outside on the terrace but inside there was. Good classics came by.

All in all if you are around here definitely...

I don’t even know where to begin. Brasserie Oscar should be ashamed to call itself a restaurant. The food was an absolute disaster — bland, cold, and somehow both overcooked and underseasoned at the same time. I’ve had better meals at gas stations at 2 AM. Honestly, microwaving frozen food would have been a gourmet experience compared to this mess.

The “hamburger” I ordered? More like a dry, leathery slab of regret. The vegetables tasted like they were boiled three days ago and left to sulk in the fridge. And the dessert? I wouldn’t feed it to my worst enemy — unless I was trying to...
