La Braisière

Toulouse


This carnivorous bistro flame-grills beef to perfection, lavishing fine cuts of meat with sauces from green pepper to pungent Roquefort. Right in the middle of one of Toulouse’s most historic streets, its interior decorated with watercolours of Toulouse’s past, La Braisière exudes comfort and nostalgia. Come hungry.

If you can't muster the appetite for hulking steaks, adjoining L'Annexe serves tapas and salads.
