Bistrot de l'Alouette — Restaurant in Bordeaux

Getting the fish is a mistake and the service is hit or miss.

I have been to this restaurant before and was happy with the food and service. Unfortunately both have gone down in standards.

I had the pleasure of dining at this wonderful restaurant and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed. The cuisine was excellent, featuring light and original dishes typical of Southern France.

The food is barely cooked. Medium means rare and everyone is happily eating the raw redmeat. The fries are even bland and tasteless. If that’s your thing, party on, def not mine.

Our steaks came out 5 min after we ordered it. Not exactly how I want to have a nice meal.

Americans stays away. We even speak rudamentary French, but I guess that’s not good enough for...
