7.5/10Food was excellent. Tables are very close inside making it difficult to get in and out of chairs. Outside table were at capacity but inside is quite curious decor. Overall mostly enjoyable.

9/10Good service, tasty duck leg and grilled shrimp. the wine was lacking, but standards are high because it's in Bordeaux.

8.5/10We chose this restaurant for a Sunday dinner and we’re not disappointed. Located on a quiet street with pleasant outdoor seating. Menu offered many choices. Service was timely and efficient. All four in our party enjoyed our meal.

8.5/10A lovely little restaurant close to our apartment. The staff were very friendly and spoke English, which was a great help. The service was very good and the food was tasty and nicely cooked. We would be happy to dine there again.

10/10So great a restaurant! The service this restaurant offers is like coming to a house of your friend, and that’s the most impressive service I have ever gotten in Bordeaux, far beyond the price level it’s actually on. The food is so great, the duck confit is really a surprise to me, with a single fork on it, the bone falls off from the meat and the juice flows right from in between the fibres of the leg of duck, which was amazing. Love it and this is really a great place to sit and chat after a whole day. Thanks for this meal and looking forward to trying more next time!

9.5/10Highly recommended - a great find in Bordeaux! We very much enjoyed the service that Caitlyn provided at today's lunch. I recommend the duck confit - with fries and salad - and any of the entrees. Our favorite dessert turned out to be café gourmand. On our next visit we hope to try the roasted camembert with honey. Another patron today suggested that we return to Lion de Lilas for it. English is spoken here but the restaurant is mostly patronized by locals.

9/10Friendly staff and nice colorful location close to the pedestrian area. We came there thinking to order the menu, but we realized it is limited to the dishes of the day. So we had two entrées from a la carte (foie gras and camembert rôti - both amazing!) and two main dishes from the daily menu (croque Monsieur and vegetarian Tarte, which were okay). Overall we would come back again!

8.5/10The timing of the serving could be improved. The wine should rather be served a little before the dish came on the table than long after as we experienced with both of our dishes. It should also be possible to serve two café-au-laits at the same time as three espressos, but this also failed badly. The food served was perfect though.

10/10Beautiful dinner. The food was excellent, the service was super friendly and managed to survive even my broken French, the place was incredible - would say it’s one the best places for an authentic southwestern French date we’ve ever been to.

4.5/10Overall the service and food was disappointing. The veg burger was just vegetables in the middle of a bundy and the tagine was bland not spicey ...The starters were very good but the main courses were underwhelming . Would not recommend!
