Restaurant Recommendations?
Bonjour! My husband and I, plus another couple will be in Bordeaux at the end of July 2024. Any restaurant recommendations? The date in question is a Sunday, which I do realize can be more tricky because things close on Sundays.

What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors find Le MUR Bordeaux to be a cool display of contemporary street art, though many note it's a brief experience with only a few pieces spread out. While the art itself is appreciated, some reviewers express that it's smaller in scale than anticipated.
"I was expecting more to be honest. The art is so cool but you can see everything in less than 15 minutes, you don't even need to walk, everything is around the same zone."
Luis Quintero
"I thought this would be a relatively long wall with a variety of street art. It’s a few street art spread out in a relatively close proximity (about 2 - 3 blocks). I had higher expectations. This review isn’t a reflection on the art displayed. The art itself was cool."
Kitanya
"Fairly easy to find this street but there wasn't a whole lot in terms of street art. A few beautiful pieces but it was a little underwhelming.
Sorry for spoilers but these are pretty much the only pieces."
