La Route du Rhum — Restaurant in Bordeaux

If you want frills, go elsewhere. A small (probably family run establishment) apparently frequently by locals, since everyone else seemed to know each other. I was the only non-French speaker in the entire place, but they still treated me like a member of the family. My waitress did not speak a kick of English, but she helped me get through the menú with kindness and care. Food is plentiful and delicious.
