The story
La Table du Décanteur is a bistro at 6 Esplanade Jean Valleix in Le Bouscat, just outside Bordeaux, and Le Fooding listed it in 2026. Lunch, afternoon glasses and dinner all take place under one roof, with the kitchen and the wine bar sharing the same room.
Paul Andrejac runs the kitchen, with earlier experience at Ducasse, Gagnaire and Ledeuil. The lunch market menu and the evening tapas change with the seasons. The team makes everything on site, using local produce wherever possible.
The space is large, with pine green velvet chairs, a long banquette and a bar clad in wooden slats. Guests don't get a printed wine list. Sommeliers guide them through bottles on the cellar wall, based on what they like and want to try. In the afternoon, a glass and a platter are the easy choice.
