I am in Europe traveling around and Bordeaux is a must visit place situated in southern France…read more This is the first dinner venue that I tried out and it is amazing. Ofcourse you cannot miss the wine in the wine capital of the world and I believe this venue has a pretty good collection of wine (I do recommend to visit the wineries around Bordeaux. They got wine tasting events all the time). Coming to food, I tried the Salmon. They make justice to my favorite fish. The venue is situated near St. Micheal's basilica and the view outside is breathtaking. There is nothing more refreshing than sitting in the middle of an old city staring at an amazing 14th century monument and enjoying some authentic French food with some good wine wine! Highly recommended

One of the finest in Bordeaux…read more Another school outing led us to this restaurant that can house over 90 of us! We went inside the restaurant where there were more outdoor seating with heat lamps to accommodate for those who were in the outside area. We started with charcuterie or salad for those who are vegetarian. Sweet red wine from Bordeaux and white (not sure what type it was since I didn't try it) were also given. The charcuterie was an assortment of spicy salami, sausage, and a very tender meat I couldn't figure out. Their tiny little pickles were very good and the mini salad as well! Our plat was duck and potatoes on top of it with what looked like gravy sauce. It was my first time eating duck and it had an interesting taste to it. It was boneless which was nice and it was crunchy on some parts. The meat was like pulled pork where it was easy to spread and eat. The meat was very well cut and sliced. The potato hugging the duck had an infusion of the duck which wasn't all that bad. The dessert of the day (dessert du jour) for January 27th, 2017 was a sort of chocolate soufflé is the best way I can describe it. We initially thought it was cake and ice cream, but this works well too! Inside the soufflé was a very sweet chocolate sauce and there was whip cream on the side to complement the richness of the chocolate. It was a good ending to the meal we had! For a nice restaurant in Bordeaux look no further than Le Passage!

We arrived on a late Sunday evening in Libourne. We didn't have a reservation so we were told to…read morereturn at 9:45pm. Since we weren't hungry and the restaurant was across our hotel, we made this reservation. We took that time to enjoy views of the river and walk around Libourne. When we returned at the appointed time, our table was ready for us. We were offered the option to sit inside vs outside. Those sitting on the patio were enjoying the riverside views but a number of them needed to avail themselves of the red blankets provided by the restaurant for their outside diners. We opted for indoor seating. The menu features a good variety of appetizers including charcuterie platters, salads, foie gras, and seafood. We started with the sautéed squid which was tender and very flavourful. We also ordered the steak and salad, as well as a duet of veal and pork belly which came with a sweet potato purée and a mélange of vegetables. Both entrees came with a side of fries. The dishes were all beautifully plated. They have a great selection of wines featuring ones produced in Bordeaux. We had a glass of red wine from St Emilion. If you are staying in Libourne, I highly recommend making a reservation to dine here.

This was one of the restaurants known for their duck as per my map of bookmarks. We decided to…read morecheck this place out for lunch as they open quite late for dinner (7pm!) like many other French restaurants. As we came for lunch, they had special lunch set menu of either Entree (appetizer) + Plat (main entree) AND/OR dessert for a set price. The Plat of the day was Sea Bream and their grill of the day was a sirloin steak for an extra €2. We got both plus their magret (duck breast). This meal got two choices of sides, which we chose mashed potatoes and seasoned vegetables, and a sauce which we chose creamy mushroom. The portions were HUGE. For the price we're getting for lunch, it was a steal. The magret was delicious - just missing a bit of flavor in my opinion. Maybe pepper which was on the side? But perfectly cooked. My mom loved the mashed potatoes as she was getting a bit sick of chips (fries) LOL. The seasoned vegetables were soooo good. So much flavor rather than just the normal steamed broccoli we've been having. The sirloin was definitely missing a lot of flavor. I don't think it was seasoned as there was salt and pepper on the table to add to it. But there was a sauce we weren't sure of to give it some flavor. The sea bream was sauced nicely, but was quite heavy in my opinion. The presentation of it was beautiful though. Potato chips, whole potato and flavored mashed potatoes? all in one dish with the fish. Yum! I enjoyed the mashed potatoes? a lot. The restaurant also provided complimentary bread AND small canned pork pate. Nowhere else we've been gave complimentary pate. My mom and boyfriend LOVED it so much that we asked the server where this could be bought to bring back to friends and family. She was able to give us extra before we left and inform us where to buy more! So nice of her and the owner! Overall, I feel like this was a nice experience. The workers here were very friendly, and the food was good and beautifully presented.

I had my usual scotch, which was a very nice pour and my wife had a white wine. Both very nice. Our waiter, Teophane, was very friendly and casual. My attempts at French amused him. He suggested both calamari and razor clams as appetizers. Both were fantastic! Then for dinner, my wife had an amazing burger with fries -- just what she had been missing after a week in France! I had hake-- fish-- just great. After dinner, the owner treated us to a local brandy infused in-house with vanilla and caramel. Our waiter shared a glass with us. An absolutely wonderful touch!
