Les Complices
Small and cozy restaurant known locally for it's tasting menu+visit site
Michel Sarran
With 2 michelin stars, placed slightly out of the city centre, Michel Sarran's restaurant is the reference in Toulouse. It would be a sacrilege not to salute such well-executed cooking, which clearly bears the stamp of the chef's personality and showcases exceptional ingredients. The interior decor was redesigned in 2013 and also pays homage to the region.+visit site
