L'absolu Bar a vins - Saint-Émilion

This is a great spot to people watch in Saint Emilion, situated on the steep cobbled road just down from the tourist information you can watch people sliding down the hill. We just had a couple of nice beers so cannot vouch for the food...but we would return All my reviews are based on genuine first hand experience, if this has been helpful to you please give me a helpful vote, thank you

Saint Emilion has several obvious places to eat, but this restaurant takes a little finding, and because it is situated on a small square, there is plenty of hustle and bustle to watch as you eat. If the weather is warm enough, take a table...on the terrace. The table d'hote was simple, but really deliciously cooked. The pate de fois gras was of a very high standard, and the beef bourgignone was a good sized portion. I made the mistake of asking for a glass of house red wine, but in a french vineyard town, there were seven house wines on the menu.

My impression that it was a quick place to get a snack and a drink. It is not particularly outstanding, but it is carved into a cave below the town and opens up to a nice plaza as shown in my exit photo. That makes...it alone worth a visit. The staff were all very pleasant and we got our orders quickly. St. Emilion can be crowded and hot, so this was a pleasant place that I would visit again.

We stopped at this place for lunch we sat on the verandah and enjoyed the sunshine so the slightly slow service didn't worry us. The chèvre cheese salad was lovely. A pleasant place for lunch away from the hustle and bustle of the main...square.

It's twice that I come to this restaurant with my boyfriend, the service is mediocre, waitresses are unpleasant, not a word when you pay. no will to satisfy customers, we are not talking badly, it is not acceptable!The dishes are expensive for what it is. I took a goat salad, and I was served with an insipid green salad with 3 pieces of cheese, 4 nuts and vinegar. On the other hand, the charcuterie board was well provided.
