L'Encoche - Réserver une table

My freinds and I went there for a Friday girls night and we enjoyed a lot! We liked the ston wall inside the restaurant which is warm and nice. The service was quite well too. Since the chef or the suos-chef is a Japonais women so you can find many interesting combinations on the menu, such as sisho, red curry tataki.... and the dishes were delicious. Even more, the desserts were outstanding. On might think you can easily have a decent dessert in any restaurants in Bordeaux since afterall we are in France, the most well known country of pâtissierie, but it's not true. Anyway we were all very satisified by the desserts of this restanuant (we ordered café gourmand). The only thing we did not like is one of the starters " Crispy gambas " which was not crispy enough and the chesse inside the rolls was too stong which covered the flavor of gambas.

L'Encoche was recommended by our B&B hosts and I am so glad we gave it a try. The restaurant is located just off La Rue de Pas-St-Georges in a beautiful stone-walled medieval building. We both had the salmon and sesame starter which came with a subtle horseradish sauce. My main was an exquisitely cooked rack of lamb and my husband had an equally stunning piece of veal - both came with stir fry vegetables and creamy mash. My dessert of chocolate fondant with speculoos and my husband's praline dacquoise perfectly rounded off the meal. We enoyed a very reasonable bottle of Cote de Nuits Villages and with the excellent cooking, ambience, friendly service, great music and reasonable prices it was a night to treasure.

I reserved by phone from UK before our visit. There was only one server but he gave excellent service. The rating is based on my wife's opinion as her meal was excellent whereas mine was just very good. I felt my veal was a bit ordinary and they jumped the gun a bit by serving winter veg on a Sept day when the temperature was in the mid 30s.I even had a sprout on my plate! However on balance I would happily recommend this place

The restaurant is very well situated in the centre of the historic section, and run by a husband and wife team. Nice room, attentive service and very good food; had the shrimp rolls as a starter, the Rack of Lamb and Steak Frites - all were very good, and nicely presented. Service was good despite only the owner in the front of the room

L'Encoche (interesting name!) offers high quality food in a beautiful setting. It is located on one of the nicest squares in the historic center. The young manager is very attentive. The menu tends towards the classic and - judging by other reviews - doesn't change very often.
