Le Pavillon des Boulevards

I tried the Menu de Samedi Midi (Saturday’s lunch menu) during my time in Bordeaux and I am grateful I did it. I started with the beer of the moment (not a fan of blonde beers, but this one was very good) and two appetizers they offered. The first one was a sort of pâté of mushrooms and truffle very tasteful and the second one a petit bouche like a tartalette. Good too. The mise en bouche was a tartar of tuna, a green mousse with sweet potato and a sweet touch. Delicious! Then I tried a soup with coconut and tartar of haddock and ginger and they served a delicious bread with it. The two mains were the best part of the menu. First, the fish with a sauce of beetroot and mushrooms. Then, porc with quinoa and guacamole. Probably the guacamole wasn’t the best because it had too much lemon, but the porc was perfect. During the service, they serve two types of wine (white and red), included in the price. Finally, in honor to La Chandeleur, they had a dessert made of little crêpes and homemade icecream, but I have to say that it was a little disappointing. To conclude the experience, they serve coffee with sweets (canelé, chocolate and macaron). The cost of the menu including two glasses of wine is 80 euros, which is not bad for a Michelin resto. Overall, the food was amazing and perfectly made. You have the chance to try different dishes, temperatures, and techniques in 7 étapes (if we consider coffee and appetizer), so I highly recommend it. Just take in mind that the water and cocktails are not included in the prize. The service is great. They really make you feel special and you are treated at its best since you open the door until you leave. If you really want to try a Michelin in Bordeaux, do not miss this cheaper option on Saturday. 😋🌎🍽️✈️ Sabor Kairos

Fantastic Michelin dining experience. Great food, service and atmosphere.

We went for the lunch (holiday menu for 80eur including two glasses of wine) and it was the best meal of hour holidays! Beautiful restaurant, we were looking towards the patio. Service was very efficient and kind and the timing between dishes very well planned. All the menu was full of flavour as well as refined and beautifully presented. The only point to improve would be to have a bigger selection of wine by the glass. However, we would love to come back and we recommend it for sure!

We’ve been here for the wedding of our cousin. The design and concept were very elegant. They have a very nice backyard with shade, allowing to keep the outside temperature low in a hot day. Very suitable to an outdoor event. Regarding the food, we weren’t impressed by the starters but I really enjoyed the fish and meat course. They were indeed very delicious and require a lot of works. The dessert were also good but didn’t « wow » me like the two main courses. They offer multiple varieties of bread which I really appreciate, and all of them were delicious. I don’t have comment for the wine paring as we brought our own wine for the events, but it’s a +1 plus for the service. Worth a visit if you come to Bordeaux !

Amazing food, very well presented and great staff. Everything was more than delicious. You can see and taste that they are using quality ingredients. For the first time I tried Curuba /Banana passion fruit (South American fruit) in sorbet. We had to chose our own knife for the meet according to our wood preferences. Highly recommended for the food! The wine however that came with the menu was okay, but nothing special.

What I was impresses was that the sommelier here has very good personality.. Sometimes a sommelier might be very snobish, but here he is very gentle. I got so relaxed to be with him. And also the chef was very thoughtful to greet us. We came here because we had our wedding anniversary. Actually I came here in 2006 and after 18 years the owner was changed into the new one. I did not know but still this restaurant has very friendly atmosphere and I was very happy to come here. They were so kind that they answered our request and there was no discrimination or anything for Asian people. I still miss the madam whom I met 16 years ago, but this restaurant haa made new good memories for me.

Delicious gourmet menu evening the French way. Below + tasty menu (my personal favorite: the oyster tartar, rolled in cucumber, with caviar on top and smoke burrata on the side - a real surprise for someone like me who has been in many * restaurants) + full haute cuisine service, friendly staff - personal taste, but some dishes missed a bit more depth / richness for me

We reserved the Discovery Menu, and it was a wonderful journey of flavours and aesthetics. The presentation is sophisticated in it's elegance and simplicity, the choice of the serving dish for each menu item was marvellous. Service is absolutely superb and the setup next to a beautiful courtyard is very welcoming. Out of all the "stages" , and it was hard to pick, the one that stood out for me was the St pierre fish, accompanied by a sake foam, beetroot and horseradish "hummus", Daikon, and glazed radish, all garnished with pickled radish and dehydrated beetroot flakes. The perfectly cooked fish with the accompanying, perfectly balanced flavours, has made a perfect dish.

Longest running Michelin Star restaurant in Bordeaux. We ate on the back porch and it was a lovely evening meal. The service was impeccable, as you would expect from a Michelin Star restaurant and the audience was relaxed.

Great service... beautiful restaurant. But I don't think the chef can taste. Every dish we had was bad (from a pure taste perspective). Worst Michelin starred restaurant we went to in France (out of 10) and one of the worst restaurants of any quality we've ever been to. Bad, bad, bad... Don't go here.

One of the finest restaurants in Bordeaux... This michelin starred restaurant offers everything you would expect, from impeccable service to delicious food, and of course exquisite wine. Located in an old town house, you can have your meal in their lovely garden during the summer. Good to know: the "discovery" menu (lunch time only), currently at 40 euros, includes a 4 course meal, a glass of wine and coffee, which is a very good deal. For special occasions, there is a private salon which you can book for your party. Overall a perfect experience...

Delicate difference between temperatures of the food , beautiful placemats of dishes,elegant all white environment.but the duck was tough...

A Michelin starred evening. We had the tasting menu and asked the sommelier to recommend wine. It was a great evening under the trees on the patio. I recommend you sit on the patio if the weather is agreeable and get the tasting menu. We loved the experience. Not inexpensive but come on, you are in France - Enjoy.

Great meal. I got the "Surprise Menu" which was well-balanced between between vegetarian, seafood, and pork. Preparations are excellent. 7 courses but small plays so not an overwhelming amount of food. I had the waiter choose wonder and he did an great job. Beautiful setting on the patio. Excellent, unpretentious service.
