San Pietro — Restaurant in Bordeaux

I arrived at this restaurant at 6pm as per their advertised opening hours. I was turned away and told to give them another 30 minutes. I was happy to do so, presuming there was some legitimate reasoning for opening later.

I then returned at 6.30 as advised and I was told once again not to return for another 20 minutes. I was quite hungry at this stage after being out in bordeaux for day activities.

A restaurant down however the road called la casuccia took us in before their opening times to accommodate the incompetence of the first restaurant.

Quite disappointed in the San pietro service. Can’t comment on the food - never...

The restaurant is very nicely decorated, and the servers are attentive. But that's about all that is good about this restaurant.

The atmosphere is absolutely horrible. All talking is drowned out by the horrific modern EDM music coming out of the speakers, and it left a very sour taste in my mouth as I left.

The spaghetti wasn't anything to rave about either. It was a pretty bland tomato sauce with heaps of ok spaghetti and nearly no meat.

I'm sorry, but I just won't be going back until the atmosphere...

We have eaten here before, so we were not put off by a restaurant that was empty at 8pm (it was Monday, in a heatwave). It filled up in the next 30 minutes.

We had drinks (Peroni, prosecco) and two pizzas. Food excellent - generous topping, fantastic crispy crust cooked to perfection. The pizza was not massive, but neither of us could finish the whole thing. €42, with drinks, in Central Bordeaux? ...
