This was an odd experience. We fought and killed 3 gnats during our meal
And couldn’t catch them all which was distracting from the experience. The ambience is very odd as it’s incredibly bright and feels like it’s trying to be an early lunch. I wish they’d bring the lights down a bit. Perhaps candles or anything to warm it up? The food was good for the most part, but we had better elsewhere in Bordeaux. Wine was fantastic! Would highly recommend the wine pairing with the tasting menu. We enjoyed our time, but the bright lights and vibe of the restaurant were really
Off putting and we were surprised it has a Michelin star compared to others we’ve been to. Servers were lovely! Again, less light for dinner! Dessert was not enjoyable.

Food was fantastic. It will really take you to a different level.
But for a 1 STAR Michelin few mistakes were made.
- they ask you to wait outside if you are not on time
- they are not helping you to seat
- wine pairing always comes late
- different wines are some times served in the same glass
- you need to ask for extra bread

A true 1 STAR Michelin shouldn’t deal with those mistakes.

TentaziOni was the obvious choice in   restaurant to celebrate 20 years of marriage.
Second visit and once again it did not disappoint!
Original and creative menu was offered and the service was very professional and knowledgeable.  The whole team were there to deliver an experience worthy of its Michelin star.
Thank you all once again.
