I hate to give such a beautiful restaurant only 4 stars! But C'Yusha did not compare to any of the…read moreother Michelin Guide restaurants I visited on my trip to France, and at this price point, I expected more. I agree with another reviewer that the "wow" just didn't appear for most dishes. My husband and I ordered a demi bottle of red wine, which was the perfect size for us, along with the full tasting menu. We explained our dietary preferences, and they were accommodated perfectly. Please refer to my pictures for the courses. I believe there were 2 that I missed (not pictured: duck and bread with curry butter)? My favorites were the artichoke soup and the roasted red pepper passion fruit sorbet. The soup was smoky and delicious! It didn't seem to go extremely well with the daikon and beet (?) crostini, but I really enjoyed the flavor and creaminess. BUT THE SORBET. WOWWWWW this was the best part of the meal for me! Just a spoonful was all it took for me to fall in love. Who knew that roasted red pepper and passion fruit would go together so well?? I can't describe how amazing this was. Everything else was just so-so for me, except for the service, which was stellar. I imagine the menu changes often, and I probably would return to try different courses. Overall, a nice place for a romantic dinner, and pretty good food.

Food: theyre very experimental (incl. worms for a snack, glasses out of ice, and so on) which i like a lot. it is always a surprise of what comes next on your plate! unfortunately there was always something missing in the dishes. the kind of thing where you're like "wow" just didnt appear. but theyre totally on their way to be one of the top restaurants of bordeaux! Service: very nice couple that owns this restaurant! Atmosphere: i really like their interior design! it looks like in an old cellar and is nicely decorated with a lot of wood. fancy and cozy! i hope i can come back to bordeaux again to eat at this restaurant again! and maybe the next time i can give a 5 stars review! :)

If you eat meat and you're in Bordeaux, you should visit, you will not regret it. -- Food -- The menu is in French, so I'm not sure what the exact translation is, but I ordered a marinated pork dish, served in a small cast iron pot with a home made broth. I chose the pork because we were seated next to an enormous red metal pig, and it seemed like their specialty. I certainly wasn't disappointed. It was perfectly cooked, unbelievably tender, and savory on a whole new level. -- Drinks -- We ordered a bottle of Corsican red, per the recommendation of our waiter. It was delicious! I was going to order a Bordeaux (since the restaurant is in Bordeaux) but I'm glad our waiter steered me in a different direction. They have a huge wine selection, if you aren't sure what to get, just ask! -- Service -- Our waiter made this experience so much fun. He was more than happy to translate the menu for us and provide some recommendations. He got to know us a bit and even gave us some recommendations on restaurants back in the US that his friends worked at. Small world! We visited fairly late on a weekend without reservations and they had no problems finding us a table. -- Atmosphere -- A Cantina has a small bar and dining area downstairs, with a larger seating area upstairs. We sat downstairs at a window table next to a giant red pig statue. The restaurant is dimly lit, perfect for a date night. -- Stars -- Food: 2/2 Stars Wine: 1/1 Stars Service: 1/1 Stars Atmosphere: 1/1 Stars Total: 5/5 Stars

During our first night in Bordeaux, my wife and I didn't have any reservations for dinner, and kind…read moreof winged it by walking around until we found a place that looked good to us. We peeked into A Cantina since it looked lively with a lot of locals. They asked us if we wanted to eat at the bar or restaurant. Apparently, the lower level has a tapas style menu and the upper level has a more traditional dinner menu. We chose dinner and were guided upstairs. The place was fairly small with home style tables and cozy decor. The two waitresses serving everyone were buzzing around and informed us that they did speak English and would be with us in a moment. Once our waitress was able to come and talk to us, she was very helpful in guiding us through the menu and making various recommendations. After discussing our options, we chose to start with the Tartare de Mulet and Figatellu de Felix Torre Grillé, with the Le Cochon Noir as our entree. The Tartare de Mulet is comprised of Mullet, which was a refreshing change from the standard beef tartare, and was very well seasoned. The Figatellu de Felix Torre Grillé, was explained to us as being a type of pan fried sausage that is unique to Bordeaux. This was a surprising dish because it tasted very heavily of liver, something that I have not really encountered in sausages. I really liked the dish since I have an affinity for liver, but my wife, not so much. After we devoured our starters, we were presented with the Cochon Noir. The Cochon Noir is a double cut pork chop that is cut in half when served at the table; a somewhat grand presentation considering the humble setting, but was pleasantly surprising and entertaining. Our waitresses also recommend various local Bordeaux wines that paired well throughout our dinner. Overall, this was a very good dinner experience, which I would definitely recommend to others and try to come back to myself.

Don't just rock up to any of the most popular restaurants in Bordeaux without a reservation as you'll most assuredly be turned away, at least in August... So, after being turned away elsewhere, we were pleased to find seats here! We found the prices for the Menus Formules very reasonable and the food was very good. Traditional but light, with just the right combination of flavours and textures. I didn't find it memorable but was pleased that we'd found a good meal for the night. But here's the thing. It was 8pm, the sun was still high in the sky, and sitting outside in a quiet, gorgeous, historic courtyard could not have been better. It was absolutely magical. Some of the other restaurant streets are extremely busy and lively. If you'd prefer, like us, something in a quieter corner, this location can't be beat. As we finished our meal, the sunlight on the top of the buildings was going slightly pink.
