    Exceptionally good restaurant serving Michelin Star-quality food. The menu is a set, sampling-style menu which is largely fish-based, lovingly prepared with local and other specially sourced ingredients. There are only 14 covers so book early!

    Lume was an incredible dining experience. One of the best meals we had during a week in Bordeaux. Service and atmosphere are elegant yet simple, comfortable, present, and unobtrusive. The chef blends flavors which are bold yet perfectly executed. Presentation of dishes is fantastic. I assume this restaurant will have a star very soon and it absolutely deserves it. We will definitely return on our next trip to Bordeaux.

    This place is a gem. There are only a few table so it is best to book in advance. We had a great experience. Most of the ingredients come from Italia, and so does the chef (and he's good!). The waitress is very professional and warm and she knows her stuff (she suggested a biodynamic white whine from the Frioul to go with the food and that was a killer). We had a 6 services diner for less than 50€. Highly recommended!

    Absolutely amazing! Truly a culinary experience in the heart of Bordeaux. The waitress is very experienced and tentative. The menu courses are elegantly presented and thoughtfully composed. Will go back again!

    Delicious food and great hospitality. Probably one of the best restaurants in Bordeaux. They deserve a Michelin star.

    What an amazing experience! Tucked away in small street is this charming restaurant. Cuisine, service and hospitality were all exceptional. As if the world class cuisine wasn’t impressive enough, the service by the Chef’s partner in the dining room told a story that made the visit all the more memorable. The wine list is sourced from mostly Italian, low intervention winemakers. I’d highly recommend the wine pairing option, as each selection really paired well with the food. This wonderful little restaurant is sure to impress even the most sophisticated palates. I highly recommend Lume and hope to return again someday.

    Unbelievable!! Fabulous meal as good as finest restaurants in Paris. Excellent service and wine as well.

  • 5/5 Catherine S. 5 years ago on Google • 13 reviews
    A charming, small restaurant in the medieval section of Bordeaux. Fantastic food, all home made. Portions are generous and beautifully presented. Very affordable prices for the 3 course menu. Because it is a tiny place, there are only 2 choices for each course( but in our experience both options were delicious). The husband and wife duo who run this restaurant clearly care about quality and about fresh ingredients. The olive oil comes from his uncle’s farm in Italy!

    A must if in Bordeaux! Cute little restaurant with amazing food and service. We truly enjoyed our culinary experience

  • 5/5 Mitch C. 2 years ago on Google
    My husband and I dined at this lovely restaurant June 2021. Warm and cosy place, very welcoming hosts, the menu wasn't complicated at all and the food was amazing! The couple who runs the place was super humble and fun to speak with. Overall we had a wonderful night. We'll recommended to everyone you'll never go wrong 👌

    Cozy little restaurant with high quality ingredients, the couple that owns the place is amazing, they love food and listen how they explain every dish make it a whole experience, will recommend if you are in town

  • 5/5 Bret F. 3 years ago on Google
    we were not at all disappointed. After an email exchange to confirm opening times (they were going away for a short break) we were warmly welcomed. A very short menu always promises fine food and this was no exception. Everything was superb,, very tasty and interesting combinations. Definitely visit and we'll definitely be back!

    Its amazing that we had one of the best Italian dinners in Bordeaux. The passion, skill and the ingrediantes really makes the difference and makes this restaurants the best we experienced here in Bordeaux. The consistent stream of good reviews don’t happen without a reason. I highly recommend this place.

    One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! The food, drinks, and service were all top notch.

  • 5/5 Aaron 4 years ago on Google • 2 reviews
    The best meal in Bordeaux, somewhat ironic that it was Italian and not French. We were only visiting for a few days so we wanted each meal to be special. Dinner here was fantastic. It is a small restaurant by a husband wife team of owners— with the kitchen run by the husband, and front of house by the wife Alice. She speaks excellent English with a bit of an accent but is very thoughtful and thorough. Her husband is Venetian. She explained the menu items for 10 mins, and she is clearly passionate about the food, which is good because her husband probably spent all day preparing for the dinner service! Reservations are a must and highly recommended.
