Le Grand Bleu

About

Le Grand Bleu is a celebrated gastronomic restaurant tucked in the heart of Sarlat, a medieval town in the Périgord Noir. The chefs—led by Maxime Lebrun—craft menus that celebrate the bounty of the Dordogne, sourcing seasonal produce from local farmers and pairing each plate with an extensive selection of French wines. Whether you opt for the classic “Bleu Azur” tasting—a starter, main and dessert for €48—or the heartier “Bleu Royal” for €62, the dishes range from fresh trout and sea bass to tender duck breast, all finished with innovative twists. The restaurant opens for lunch from 12:30 p.m. and dinner from 7:30 p.m., serving guests until late evening. The elegant yet unpretentious setting—including a neutral‑coloured dining room and a small but impressive wine bar—creates a relaxed atmosphere for both intimate dinners and family gatherings.
