Great classic French bistro food. We stumbled here when it was very busy and they were able to fit us in! We expected it to be a bit of a trap due to the location but boy were we wrong! The food was excellent, as was the wine. It’s pricey, but the food is worth the price. We enjoyed the tartar, steak and fish dish!

Even without knowing it was run by Château Pavie, the food was amazing. The servers were really kind and attentive. After lunch, I did something I almost never do when traveling—I went back for dinner the same day. The Esprit Pavie, which was just 6 euros, paired perfectly with the steak.
On rainy day in Saint-Émilion, this place was a huge comfort to me.
Two thumbs up.

The place is well located in the town center but the service was terrible!
There was a worm in our oyster and when we told the waiter she said it was normal but as a courtesy she will change it for us, and then in the bill she charged it double. Regardless to say we didn’t eat the one with the worm…
Anyway we had a stomach bug that night, avoid the place I find it an expensive tourist trap!

I recently dined at this French bistro and had a wonderful experience. The service was excellent, and we ordered the lamb for two, which enormous and delicious. The bistro also features an extensive wine list.

Overall, it was a satisfying meal, and I would recommend it to anyone seeking a great dining experience in downtown Saint-Émilion.
