French fine diningChef Gordon Ramsay€€€€Horizons €195, Odyssee €250golden-triangleTue-Sat 19:30-22:00; Sun-Mon closedBook 3 weeks ahead

Le Pressoir d'Argent in Bordeaux's InterContinental hotel is the two-Michelin-star room where Gordon Ramsay's Bordeaux kitchen presses Breton lobster on one.

Tip: The Breton lobster a la presse is the signature; the room is jacket-recommended and pours one of the strongest Bordeaux lists in the city.

L'Observatoire du Gabriel 2 ★ ★ 4.6

L'Observatoire du Gabriel in Bordeaux's Place de la Bourse is the top-floor two-Michelin-star room above Chateau Angelus's Le Gabriel project.

Tip: Request a window-side table for the view over the Miroir d'Eau; the bistro Le 1544 downstairs is the easier walk-in alternative.

Le Chapon Fin ★ 4.0

French fine diningChef Younesse Bouakkaoui€€€€€95 to €165golden-triangleTue-Sat 12:00-13:15, 19:30-21:15; Sun-Mon closedBook 1 week ahead

Le Chapon Fin in Bordeaux's Golden Triangle is the 1825 institution with the Belle Epoque rocaille grotto interior by Alfred Cyprien-Duprat.

Tip: The grotto room is the city's most theatrical dining room; lunch on Tuesday and Wednesday is the calmest walk-in window.

Le Quatrieme Mur 1 ★ ★ 4.4

Le Quatrieme Mur in Bordeaux's Grand Theatre is Philippe Etchebest's one-Michelin-star brasserie under the colonnade, with a high-end terrace looking.

Tip: The brasserie side at lunch is the price-friendlier entry; the starred dining room takes evening bookings only.

Solena 1 ★ ★ 4.5

French fine diningChef Victor Ostronzec€€€€€78 to €135saint-pierreMon,Thu-Sun 12:00-13:15, 19:30-21:30; Tue-Wed closedBook 2 weeks ahead

Solena in Bordeaux's central Rue Chauffour is Victor Ostronzec's one-Michelin-star room, awarded in 2020 and known for poetic, seasonal tasting menus.

Tip: Monday lunch is the locals' secret; the kitchen serves five and seven-course tasting menus, no a la carte.

L'Oiseau Bleu 1 ★ ★ 4.3

L'Oiseau Bleu in Bordeaux's Bastide on the right bank is the Sophie and Frederic Lafon-owned one-Michelin-star room, now led by chef Francois Sauvetre.

Tip: Cross the Pont de Pierre for lunch, when the €65 menu is the best fine-dining value in the city; closed Sundays and Mondays.
