The dishes showcase carefully selected products, prepared with simplicity and precision to preserve their authenticity. Here, there is no excess, but a constant search for balance between taste, season, and culinary emotion.

Take your taste buds on a journey to the heart of the Périgord Noir: the local flavors and the chef's inspirations will delight both lovers of generous cuisine and gourmets in search of finesse.

Menus that change with the seasons

The Moulin de Mitou restaurant offers evolving menus, regularly updated according to the seasons, available ingredients, and the chef's inspiration. The menus shown on the website are therefore only a snapshot of the current offerings and are presented for informational purposes only.

This approach guarantees a constantly renewed experience, faithful to the natural rhythm of the products and local markets.

The restaurant is open every evening of the week, and only on Sunday at lunchtime, in order to maintain a work rhythm focused on the quality and freshness of the dishes.

A warm atmosphere in every season

In winter, guests can enjoy a warm and inviting dining room, where the fireplace creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere. It's the perfect place for an intimate dinner, a business lunch, or a relaxing break after a day of exploring.

As soon as the weather warms up, the outdoor terrace becomes a real asset. Surrounded by greenery and filled with the scents of the garden, it allows you to enjoy a meal in the heart of nature, in a soothing, typically Périgord setting.
