Le Chaudron - Bordeaux

Very nice restaurant! Good prices, excellent service, delicious food and wonderful wine!

The staff is very friendly and helpful. But because of the Bastille today it was too crowded and the service was so slow and somewhat dissatisfied. The entrecôte aka steak was so terrible, I ordered “A Point” and it was boiled. The same with my friend, the beef should be “Saignant”, but it was too boiled. It was so dry and chewing. Beef does not come from France but from Germany. A bit disappointed for a French restaurant. Strange pommes. Otherwise Foie Gras is good, Melo Milo is good. The part is pretty, so we couldn't take desserts.

Okay food but could be better The restaurant has a good brasserie atmosphere with a good mood. The menu is small but offers a wide selection of beautiful dishes from the region. However, we went there for lunch during peak hours and unfortunately the staff was not very welcoming (probably because it was busy) and we had to wait some time to serve (not extremely though). The food was good, but a bit cold, but the staff was understanding and really helpful. I would recommend that you try out the food, but try to come in a quiet night.

Good value for price, the food was good and our server was very efficient, the wine was good "Le Pavillon de Boyrein". The restaurant is very welcoming and was very busy that night.

Just eaten in Le Chaudron, had two really good meals for €12.50 each, simply cannot beat this value in Bordeaux. I had the calamari followed by the moules with a crepe to finish, hubbys choice equally as good, with a carafe of St Etienne red and a coffee total came to €46 - wine was €20 of this! Don't understand any of the negative comments but c'est la vie! We will certainly be back - probably tomorrow night! Excellent service and very attentive waiting staff. Restaurant was very busy and we didn't expect to get a table but were shown to a table immediately, no complaints here!
