Hotel restaurant France et Angleterre

Today I was served the worst food I have had for a long time. It was inedible. I tried two bites because I couldn 't believe how awful it was the first bite. It was supposed to be calamari, but was actual processed seafood. In France!!! I was served a glass of red wine that was purportedly the best glass of wine available by the glass. It was obvious that the wine had been opened at least day before. I suppose I should have been suspicious when the waiter did not offer a test and covered the label with his hand. Probably not the wine I ordered perhaps? France has fabulous food and fabulous wine. Sacre Blue! This restaurant failed. They did offer me another main meal, but at that point I thought why .

Stopped here on spec. and had a wonderful lunch. Very reasonably priced set menu, with well cooked and presented food. Excellent range of wines at reasonable prices, with some good vintages. Recommended place for lunch on the banks of The Gironde.

We arrived as a group of 11, all be it on motorbikes! We were a group of 50 plus year old respectable people ready for a nice lunch. The owner couldn't have been ruder! The restaurant was 1/3rd full and we were told they were full. Went next door and had a wonderful sandwich at Maison Bellet! Highly recommended ! The food was great from the bakers and we sat and watched people turn up at the restaurant next door and get tables! Terrible service and if you are British or on a motorbike stay clear !

Suggested by restaurant Cafe Lavinal, but nothing special, very basic food, old style. Very kind service.

We just needed a place to eat during the middle of a wine tour and found this on tripadvisor. It's definitely not eye catching. We opted for the 4 course wine and food pairing. You get a new glass of wine with every course for 60 euros. However, the biggest treat was the food. It was nothing short of delicious. The first three courses were a salmon salad, a fois gras and an amazing pork confit. Each of the wines went well with the course. The service on the whole was middling but on par for France. In short, it was a bit pricey but the food made it worth it.
