Welcome to DIX
Tucked away in the pituresque village of Sainte-Alvère, DIX is a family-run restaurant with rooms, bringing together relaxed French country living and thoughtfully crafted seasonal cuisine.
Inspired by the changing seasons and the exceptional produce of the Dordogne, chef-owner Raphaël creates an ever-evolving 4- or 6-course tasting menu, celebrating local ingredients with creativity and care.
Crefully selected wine pairings complement the experience.
With just two well-appointed guest rooms, DIX is also a place to slow down, unwind and discover the simple pleasures of life in the Périgord Noir.
Whether joining us for dinner, a romantic escape or a leisurely stay in the French countryside, Raphaël, Gemma and our little taste-tester Louis look forward to welcoming you!
Gault & Millau
Restaurant Guide
In 2020, just a few short months after opening, we were welcomed into France's prestigious Gault & Millau Restaurant Guide.
In 2021 we were honoured to be awarded a place in Gault & Millaut's Sélection 109 - a guide to the best new chefs and restaurants in France. (DIX was the only restaurant to feature from the whole of the Dordogne).
