Domaine De Fompeyre

We had dinner my wife and I at the inside restaurant of Domaine de Fompeyre. We enjoyed an excellent dinner at L 'Orangeraie, we selected the 37 euros menu (see pictures) with glasses of Sauternes during the all dinner. As a starter, my wife had the 'Eggs and mushrooms ' called 'oeufs brouillés aux cèpes ' whereas I ordered the Gambas (big shrimps). Our main course was . As desert, I had a chocolat and pear home made cumble with Chantilly ice cream (see picture), my wife selected the strawberries with home made Chantilly cream called 'Aumonière fraises Chantilly ' (see picture), We really enjoyed this well cooked food of quality, also the waiter was really devoted. This restaurant has a view on the little village of Bazas with its beautiful Gothic cathedrale. Should you come for lunch, you can have access to the 2 swimming pools as there is an outdoor and an indoor one with SPA, hammam and jacuzzi. This is a strong recommendation and we will certainly come back ! (during rush periods, resrvation recommended).

Dinner was set up on a large outdoor terrace,partly under tents. Below the tents ceiling fans were blowing,so was the wind outdoors,the end result was that we were cold. To make matters worse service was very slow. For the food my appetizer of gesier salad was good,the beef with very strange orange garnish that followed was not good. Dessert of cheeses was average at best. The worse part was wine by the glass,I chose two red Bordeaux supposedly fairly good vintages. The waitress brought the first glass filled without showing me the bottle. It was not very good so I asked to see the bottle before she poured me the second one. However she repeated the same process claiming there was a machine in the bar filling the glasses and the bottle could not be brought over. The second glass was even worse than the first. I ended up paying for two supposedly decent wines and drinking two unpalatable glasses without being sure they were what I ordered.

Conservatory has good views out towards the cathedral. Very pleasant environment. Interesting menu beautifully presented. Service was fine and wine choice was ok, if a little overpriced. Recommend for a special occasion i.e. birthday

This was THE place to eat a few years ago, but it has lost its touch, and the atmosphere of the restaurant is cold and badly decorated. The food is not great and not cheap.
