Au Petit Bonheur

Restaurants nearby

• PanailleBib At this new-generation neighbourhood bistro – often fully booked – a close-knit trio of friends is making a splash. The dishes are meticulously prepared, with a mix of traditional recipes and forays into Asian and South American cuisines. The lunch menu is reasonably priced; in the evening, more elaborate cuisine, including starters to share. Pleasant patio.1.3km
• L'Observatoire du Gabriel★★ Michelin Located in the central edifice on Bordeaux's iconic Place de la Bourse, opposite the Miroir d'Eau water feature, this establishment is run by the owners of Château Angelus and Logis de la Cadène in Saint-Émilion. The gorgeous 18C parlours have been converted into a single open space and lavishly appointed – oak floors, thick carpets, wood panelling and mouldings. Young chef Bertrand Noeureuil, who worked with Arnaud Donckele, delights diners with beautiful cuisine inspired by the sea and the seasons – noisette de sole "Chambrelent" au plat, or lightly veiled thin fillets of sardines "Bacalan",2.9km
• Le Pressoir d'Argent - Gordon Ramsay★★ Michelin British chef Gordon Ramsay (born in Scotland) is a true culinary talent who has already been awarded three Michelin stars in England. He signs off on Le Pressoir d'Argent's menu who breathes a touch of modernity into the classic cuisine. It all comes together to enhance that French art de vivre – the opulent and refined decor and ultra competent service, the celebration of the finest ingredients from the abundant Bordeaux and Aquitaine region (foie gras, truffles, caviar, fish)… and the solid silver Christofle lobster press that is moved from table to table. The competence of the three sommeli2.9km
• Soléna★ Michelin Slightly out of the bustling city centre, this smart, yet subdued façade reveals a comfortably cosy interior. The chef, Victor Ostronzec has been honing his undeniable talent here since 2016. He stands out from the crowd with his technical, creative cuisine and often inspired plating, and always has something new to offer up his sleeve. His desire to astound is embodied by the fact that he only offers surprise menus in the evening. The polished front of house team adds the final flourish to this culinary portrait.2.6km
• Tentazioni★ Michelin She hails from Brittany, he is from Sardinia, they met in Corsica... and now they run a small restaurant in Bordeaux that punches above its weight. The chef's dishes are precise and always inspired, especially when they home in on first-rate ingredients: langoustines, spider crab, bluefin tuna and pigeon. Expect very contemporary cuisine, bursting with flavours and littered with references to Italy (put it down to the chef's origins), without ever lapsing into nostalgia or getting caught up in proclamations of identity. The tasting menus change every week depending on the chef's inspiration. I2.9km
• Le Quatrième Mur★ Michelin The quatrième mur (‘fourth wall’) of a theatre is the invisible one that separates the actors from the audience. An apt name for this restaurant set in Bordeaux’ iconic Grand Théâtre. Philippe Etchebest plays a gloriously simple, understated score focusing on first-rate ingredients, high-flying technique, a side dish and a jus. The terrace on one of the opera house’s outdoor side galleries is heavenly. Bookings essential – two sittings at lunchtime and in the evening. The menus change weekly.2.9km
• Amicis★ Michelin In a chic district of Bordeaux, between Allées de Tourny and Place des Grands-Hommes, chef Alexandre Baumard (ex Logis de la Cadène in Saint-Émilion and L'Observatoire du Gabriel) presides over this elegant two-storey restaurant. Courtesy of a tasting menu (dinnertime only), the legible, delicate cuisine showcases quality ingredients, mainly fish and seafood, that are precisely and creatively prepared, e.g. plancha grilled squid, flanked by a rustic slice of Grenier médocain (local cured meat). Damien Amilien's desserts, as delicious as they are high-flying, continue in this subtle vein – illu3.0km
• KedemBib Previously cohorts at Miles (now closed), Gil Elad and Ronan Cadoret strike again! In this small bistro complete with a counter, they serve up a veritable feast of small plates celebrating the flavours and spices of the Middle East. Their dishes make good use of the locally sourced produce at hand (Landes free-range chicken marinated in sumac with a spicy chicken jus; shish barak stuffed with porcini and seasonal chanterelles). Other highlights include a wide variety of delicious house-baked breads (eg Yemeni kubaneh) and some excellent desserts, including a Lebanese turnover filled with a dat1.9km
• Ressources★ Michelin In his new restaurant, chef Tanguy Laviale (previously at Garopapilles) is calmly going about extricating himself from the traditional codes of gastronomy – with the help of his associate, Maxime Courvoisier, a sommelier who thinks outside of the box. Imagine: a short menu, comprising just eight dishes to be mixed and matched as you please (four or five of these small plates amount to a meal). The talented chef's technical approach always hits the mark, from the judicious combinations to the quality produce enhanced without any showboating, not to mention the impeccable garnishes and seasoning3.5km
• Madame BBib At this chic brasserie in the Hotel Burdigala, particular care has gone into the decor, which sports a slightly vintage feel: oak parquet flooring, banquettes and armchairs, black tables and a pale wood console covered with black marble. The chef does an authentic job of turning out skilfully crafted dishes in a similarly nostalgic vein (confit of pork belly, venison stewed in red wine, stuffed cabbage), dotted with contemporary touches and wickedly addictive sauces. The dessert lineup of pastries is equally irresistible, illustrated by a soufflé of sweet chestnut purée and yuzu sorbet.2.5km
