You definitely need a reservation as they did have to turn people away without one. The restaurant is a bit in an odd location on a somewhat empty street. Also this is weird, but the floor slopes downward and isn't flat which made me personally feel uncomfortable to be at an angle (I have motion sickness and this felt weird). I'm know not everyone is bothered by that but I would've liked to have known before choosing this place. Otherwise it's very nice and romantic inside. The price is excellent at 49 euros for three courses. The food was very good but I will say that it looked better than it tasted. We enjoyed it but we weren't convinced that it is the top restaurant in Bordeaux as listed on trip advisor. For the price it was good.

Fortunately, at the time there was only two other tables taken on the patio. By the time we finished our meal the place was packed. I'm very happy we followed our guides advice! Our meal was fantastic. We had an appetizer, followed by my duck and my wife's fish courses. The duck came with green beans and prunes in a wonderful sauce. For dessert, I had what was probably the best chocolate mousse of my life. It contained chunks of butterscotch and was finished with a carmel sauce. The mousse itself was so rich. I was in heaven. My wife had a strawberry meringue dessert. It was good but my mousse was better. They have a small dining room and a pretty large patio on the street. Ha ha, actually the patio is across the small street. So it was entertaining watching the very efficient waiters work their way across to take care of the diners. I highly recommend LouLou. You won't be disappointed!

We sat…read moreoutside along a quiet cobblestone street surrounded by Bordeaux's beautiful honey-colored stone buildings, with views toward the old archway. The blue frontage, white tablecloths, and wicker chairs gave the terrace a charming, distinctly French atmosphere. We started with a simple plate of radishes, cherry tomatoes, and pâté, followed by the heirloom tomato salad with onions. It was incredibly fresh, naturally sweet, and a great way to begin the meal. We also ordered the roasted bone marrow, which was rich, buttery, and perfect spread over the rustic bread. For the main course, we had the grilled beef served with its sauce on the side. The meat was flavorful, tender, and cooked exactly as requested. The thick-cut fried potatoes were crisp outside, fluffy inside, and among the best side dishes we had during our trip. Dessert was a wonderful finish. The vanilla crème brûlée had a perfectly caramelized crust with a silky custard beneath, while the walnut ice cream was creamy, rich, and full of flavor. A special thanks to our server, Margianne, who was sweet, cheerful, and genuinely pleasant throughout the evening. Her warm personality made the experience even more enjoyable. La Tupina isn't about modern presentation or elaborate fine dining. It's about honest, traditional Southwestern French cooking served in a timeless Bordeaux setting. If you're looking for an authentic taste of the region, this is a place well worth visiting.

This is an iconic spot, but I can't help but feeling a bit disappointed…read more The building itself is old-school in a good way. Very warm and inviting. Service was decent, not great. Staff surprisingly didn't offer much in terms of recommendations even when asked, and though they were friendly enough, they seemed to be going through the motions. Wine list was solid, though not great. There was very little in terms of truly outstanding producers, and it was a bit overpriced. We did have a nice bottle but not necessarily something that blew our minds. I expected a better wine list for such a classic Bordeaux restaurant. Last, the food was a bit average. My wife and I shared the Chateaubriand, Pot au Feu, and fries. The steak was very good, but the food in the Pot au Feu was a bit bland and soft -- we didn't eat much of it. The fries were fine but could've been crispier. Overall, I'm happy I finally got to visit this iconic spot, but I think the kitchen and wine list are in need of a bit of an overhaul.

They have a very good wine menu with local wines but if you prefer wines from other regions they have that. They apparently brew rum too but I'm attached to barrilito (Puerto Rico ) or appleton (Jamaica) as to the food the oysters were indeed fresh and very good as was my salad with warm goat cheese. The salmon I ordered came served on bed of polenta with fresh veggies and nicely grilled leek. There wa an excellent veggie sauce. The salmon itself was excellent. Very much enjoyed the dish. The wife ordered a pasta with veggies. The mushrooms especially were superb. I was full after eating my dish but had to eat some of of hers it was so good. Finally we got an excellent tiramisu served with a side of chocolate crumbles and vanilla ice cream. I see most of the reviews are for lunch but i highly recommend staying in town and giving this a try'. There are fancier places with higher ratings if you want to spend double the amount not sure it would be twice as good
