"restaurant without pretention. modern building but vieillot: in front of the decor dates from the 1970s, rustic atmosphere brown inside, paving and tiles outside. Indeed, we have a beautiful view of the terrace, when it looks beautiful...The staff is discreet and pleasant but the service is quite slow. The food is traditional, without special elaboration, of acceptable quality. wines are poor, however. take a bite (tursan). the children menu: small portions and frozen. Hard! Special mention for foie gras, excellent.Prices are on very moderate, between 12 and 25 euros. Ultimately a restaurant where you can go to eat, but that will not leave an imperishable memory."

"from the passage this we ( in search for randos this summer ) we stopped by chance in this restaurant with my wife and son for lunch. very warm welcome of two young women as smiling as efficient. a delicious hamburger for my son and I .... with fries "house" and a succulent dish of " chipirones" for my wife. It is simple but well prepared and then the warm welcome makes the difference! the small glass of dry jar has well decorated the whole! we'll be there this summer"

"I run a small business in the UK bringing British holidaymakers to the area for adventure activities. This was the second time that we have used L'Ossau. Both times we booked for around 20 people and both times we have had an overwhelmingly positive response. The service is extremely friendly and the food is excellent every time we visit. Booking for up to 20 people has the potential to be very difficult but all we have had to do with L'Ossau is give them the number of guests and they have handled everything excellently. I will absolutely be using the L'Ossau again and I strongly recommend the restaurant to anyone visiting the area."

"The welcome is warm. A good value for money.After an aperitif at the corner of the fire, I ate a trout, next to the fish farm, with hazelnut fragments (I should say 2 since there were two, medium, in my plate) accompanied by rice and a crushed carrot with a glass of dry white (jurançon) then a sweet cheese plate of the country with its glass of red (a little red). The choice of the map is restricted but everything is homemade and the ingredients are from the region. I recommend this small restaurant but don't forget to book because the corner is known. I'll go back, it's on."

"We spent a few days in Eaux chaudes as a base to explore the area and La Caverne was the closest place for us to eat at. This restaurant is located at the end of Eaux Chaudes and it is really the only place in town to eat. Eaux Chaudes in itself is quite small; blink while you are driving and you can almost miss it. But we found it quite enchanting with the mountains, the greenery and the river and creeks.The restaurant is also a hotel, which we will surely try to stay at next time. You can park just outside on side of the road or just before where you can find some parking are in front of residential buildings.As you walk towards the building you can see the terrace area lined with gorgeous flowers and hear the river flowing below. Quite the sight. We sat here to eat during lunch when the weather was nice.Through the doors you will enter the bar area where you can sit and have a drink. Otherwise, you will be greeted an taken to your seat. Most likely, the lovely Annie will be there to greet you. She is the chef's wife (and owner, I think) and somehow between English, Spanish and French we understood each other. During dinner time we were taken downstairs to the cavern area. As you are walking down the steps you can see straight into the kitchen and see everyone cooking away. When we entered the dining area we were happily surprised. It was such a beautiful, warm, quirky place and we felt very comfortable there.The food was just really very good. We had the fish, the rabbit, the beef, the chicken, and my favourite the garbure soup. Really, we tried it all, a different dish for every meal. It was all delicious, I mean it. The portions were quite large and we were quite full after each meal. We stuck with the menu du jour so we could try a variety of meals a day, and the prices were quite good. We paid on average 65 Euros for dinner for 4 people. This included starter, meal, dessert, cheese, juice, beer and wine. The garbure is a specialty soup of the region with duck and pork. It's thick and full of beans and vegetables. The sides were quite good. They make chips (fries) once a week for those who like that. We tried them and they were very nice. The main dishes had a few sides each, all tasty. Our children loved the food and ate everything too. The menu is not large with just a few dishes a day, but it varied daily. Lots of nice wine and beer too, good selection. We had the sandwiches too and they were quite large and very tasty.While dining there our waitress Emilee, whose English was quite excellent, found out it was our daughter's birthday. They made her a birthday platter with candles and flowers, a special desert, dimmed the lights and all the staff sang her happy birthday. It was so very special and we are very grateful for it. After our third day, we felt like family and were treated as such. It was a wonderful dining experience and we would recommend this place to everyone.Be warned that this restaurant follows the French schedule with short, early breakfast, late lunch (from 12-2ish) and even later dinner (after 7). It is also a modest in size, so if you have a large group I suggest you call ahead."
