I've just returned to the UK from the South of France and have to say that all things considered, the best place I eat during my stay was in this restaurant. I was with a party of locals who were also very impressed. The wonderful food took my mind off the awful weather - the road up the valley was... More

The modern decor of this restaurant has been criticized by others, but we found it creative, quirky and charming, with inventive lighting, art on the walls, one entire side glassed in, permitting fantastic views down the valley toward Prades and the Abbey of St. Michel de Cuxa, even in the rain. The welcome here was warm and relaxed, and the... More

This was our first meal at El Taller, having previously stopped in for coffees or beers. Local friends had recommended it for luch or dinner. We were not disappointed. We took 2 friends with us, and were all very impressed with the quality of food and its presentation. Unlike one or two other reviewers, we did not find the menu... More

A very quiet village in the quiet valley of Prades and Eus, in the foothills of the Pyrenees is the location of a very amazing restaurant. Very well designed, very modern but comfortable, totally unusual but fitting well into the surrounding area. The food and choices fit the design of the place. Well chosen dishes, some typical of the region,... More

The situation of this restaurant is breath-taking. As you eat you are surrounded by mountains with lovely views down the valley towards Prades. A short drive beyond St Michel de Cuixa, it is certainly well worth the detour! The welcome is warm and friendly. the atmosphere relaxed and the food is spectacular. Presentation is beautiful and the blending of different... More

Being in the area (a quiet village just north of the splendid abbey of St Michel de Cuixa) we decided on what we thought would be a simple lunch in the local Bistrot de Pays. El Taller is much more than that - the food and its presentation is worthy of a Michelin star. We only had the formule de... More

Taurinya is just a couple of miles from the famous abbey of St Michel de Cuxa and the restaurant El Taller truly delivers heavenly food. The dining room is light and airy with interesting art work on the walls and the terrace covered by sail shaped material affords shade for diners who want to eat outside at this time of... More

The restaurant is in a very modern building in the little village of Taurinya in the Eastern Pyrenees - off the beaten track just south of Prades. El Taller is most certainly worth a visit. They have two three-course menus, one at EUR 26,50 and the Gourmand dinner at EUR 35 (£30). Indivdual dishes may be ordered from each menu... More
