I am in Europe traveling around and Bordeaux is a must visit place situated in southern France. This is the first dinner venue that I tried out and it is amazing. Ofcourse you cannot miss the wine in the wine capital of the world and I believe this venue has a pretty good collection of wine (I do recommend to visit the wineries around Bordeaux. They got wine tasting events all the time). Coming to food, I tried the Salmon. They make justice to my favorite fish. The venue is situated near St. Micheal's basilica and the view outside is breathtaking. There is nothing more refreshing than sitting in the middle of an old city staring at an amazing 14th century monument and enjoying some authentic French food with some good wine wine! Highly recommended read more

One of the finest in Bordeaux. Another school outing led us to this restaurant that can house over 90 of us! We went inside the restaurant where there were more outdoor seating with heat lamps to accommodate for those who were in the outside area. We started with charcuterie or salad for those who are vegetarian. Sweet red wine from Bordeaux and white (not sure what type it was since I didn't try it) were also given. The charcuterie was an assortment of spicy salami, sausage, and a very tender meat I couldn't figure out. Their tiny little pickles were very good and the mini salad as well! Our plat was duck and potatoes on top of it with what looked like gravy sauce. It was my first time eating duck and it had an interesting taste to it. It was boneless which was nice and it was crunchy on some parts. The meat was like pulled pork where it was easy to spread and eat. The meat was very well cut and sliced. The potato hugging the duck had an infusion of the duck which wasn't all that bad. The dessert of the day (dessert du jour) for January 27th, 2017 was a sort of chocolate soufflé is the best way I can describe it. We initially thought it was cake and ice cream, but this works well too! Inside the soufflé was a very sweet chocolate sauce and there was whip cream on the side to complement the richness of the chocolate. It was a good ending to the meal we had! For a nice restaurant in Bordeaux look no further than Le Passage! read more

Last nite we meet up w/a few new friends that lives in Bordeaux for a long time and asked us where we wanted to eat and of course I said "anything French". They decided to take us here. When first i saw it, it look like any other Brasserie here but we walk thru the "entrance" and their were a whole new world to discover. There were a tiny little restaurant inside, there were tons of antiques to look and buy and there were the bar right in front of everything. They asked us if we had reservation and we say no so we had to wait 10min for the next table. Finally we got seated and look over the menu and everything was in French(ding ding, that is a bonus). Our waiter/waitress speak French(ding ding #2) but lucky we were w/2 French people who help us read our menu and talked w/our waiter/waitress. I decided on the set course of $17.50 euro that include appetizer, entree and dessert. So I got the canard(duck) inter-organ walnut salad for my apps and a canard(duck) confit w/mushroom and a foie gras for my entree and a creme brulee for dessert. My gf wanted the oyster but they ran out so she decided just to skip dinner and drink Bordeaux white wine. One of our friend got some French fries and beef capacioco. Our other friend just got the smoked salmon. Oh yeah I decided on a half bottle of Bordeaux wine(8.60 euro)for me and it was the best wine I had so far on my trip. My salad came out first and my eyes just light up seeing sooooooo much duck organ meat and it was super warm. One bite and i just smile because it was simply amazing and tasty too. Ok the plate didn't look gorgerous but the simple execution of the plate won me over. I ate the whole things up and even share it w/my table because it was way too much to finish on my own. Oh I added more salt, pepper and tobasco sauce on my salad and the 2 French friends told me that I been hide it before the Chef see you lol Guess adding some hotsauce is a no no here hehe Next came out everyone plate and my entree look average looking but one bite it was sooooo RICH that I barely can finish another bite plus I was stuff from the salad already. I asked for some foil paper from the waiter and his eyes just drop. I guess it isn't typical to take home food here in France and they don't really have container to hold your left over so I asked for just foil paper and the waiter wanted to do it himself but I insisted to do it myself(who know what they will do to my food lol) Everyone enjoy their dishes and finally when my creme brulee came out at the end, I just share it w/everyone. I have to say, this is the most FRENCH meal that I had so far and I was loving every moment. If our friends didn't take me here, i wouldn't ever experience this. My dinner was PRICELESS!!! read more

Horrific experience. Do yourself a favor: go next door. I ordered their lamb chops with fries, and mayonnaise. The lamb was super greasy, barely any meat; the fries were soggy and greasy. The mayonnaise (which came after 15 minutes, because the waiter forgot) was pure fat without flavor. The plate was decorated with 3 tiny leaves of salad. I ate the 3 leaves, half of the fries (couldn't digest more) and the little meat that was on the lamb chops. The waiter never bothered to ask whether everything was ok. After confronting the waiter his response: "I came to ask whether you food was fine and you confirmed" (what! he never even bothered to ask). "You should not have finished your plate if you didn't like it". It's not like they would suddenly improve the quality of their food... Total price: 21.50 euro (including a glass of cheap rosé wine). Terrible and impolite service. read more

Lived across the street from Le Passage for several years, it was our go-to for dinners out with friends and we celebrated birthdays here with big groups of friends on many occasions. This place has character, a great warm atmosphere (perfect for the rainy winter nights common to Bordeaux), on point French food (the salade Landaise is great), and a reasonable wine list. It also has some fairly rude waiters, but don't let that deter you. A night at the Le Passage won't be forgotten... read more

We enjoyed a very nice meal here. I ordered a sea food platter it was all very fresh and delicious. My husband had the fresh fish, merluza, and it was also very nice. The service was good despite only two waiters and them having a full restaurant. I'd definitely go back again. Well done! read more
