Bistrot du Grand Louis - Mérignac

Great meal that came as a real surprise. I was looking for a restaurant and came over this. Once I got in, I felt comfortable and the food was absolutely top-class.

My daughter and I called us on the way to Bordeaux. We had a really nice meal, very fresh and well cooked and also very cheap. The staff was very friendly and attentive and I would recommend this restaurant for a meal.

A friendly French brasserie with great atmosphere, reservation required, friendly employees, smiling, and they speak English. Must try their Carpaccio and Para Negra Ham from Spain. Delicious steak tartar, Great portion, and superb ice cream and tasty espresso. This place in Paris will cost you...2-3x more. Will come back.

We were looking for a place to eat close to Bordeaux Merignac airport on a Thursday evening. Found this restaurant by sheer coincidence and what a revelation... It was their live Jazz evening, fully booked, but a table was found for the five of us....Very nice special menu du jour, excellent wines. This place filled up rapidly after our arrival. A large cross-section of ages. Very efficient staff. To be commended.

The Bistrot is all and more than described in the review. The waitresses were very friendly and welcoming. We had the best sea food platter with the most sumptuous cold snail I have ever tasted accompanied by a delicious white wine from the loire region....Since we wanted a taste of everything,after the seafood platter we had the steak which was perfection with a wonderful bottle of chateau reserve de Malaria pessac leognan. The desert was device, I kept looking for something to disagreeable but the restaurant lived up to its reputation and I give it a 100%. I love Bordeaux because of restaurants like this, I am taking my family there this Thursday for a repeat. Will give feed back!!!!
