Located in Martel's medieval center, Le Petit Moulin offers modern French cuisine. Reviews highlight a pleasant atmosphere, friendly service, and generally high food quality, particularly praising local ingredients and dishes like baked potatoes with aioli. However, some guests report issues with meal pacing, inconsistent meat preparation (such as tough or undercooked ribeye), and insufficient portion sizes.
