Brasserie L'O - Guingamp

This has to be one of my favorite local spots in Tucson.

Great food, great drinks, live flamenco guitar, very noisy Cost averaged $40/person.__Dinner for four, two had tapas, two had entrees.

Sunday lunch at L'O was simply dreadful. I was offerred their 'starter of the day' which consisted of a very hard piece of toast with a single strip of cheese drizzled with a few lardons. I then ordered lieu jaune with a blood orange sauce - what a disaster. Frozen fish which was served cold, dry and inedible. I sent it back, and was offered a burger instead. This also turned out cold, the fries cold and inedible with a few limp lettuce leaves. I sent this back as well - it was truly awful. For a couple, the bill was 75 euos, including half a bottle of wine. No discount or apology for the awful food - time to get a new chef I think - he simply cannot cook, or keep food warm until it is served. I will never go here again.

The restaurant has a large window on the small river, with a romantic and idyllic view : this is the sixty percent of the value. Food in the average, cafe gourmand to try and since in Guingamp there is no a lot of restaurants, this is a good option anyway.

An atractive setting just off the town centre overlooking the river. The terrace must be popular of a warm evening at weekends. Tastefully furnished in a purposeful manner. The staff are charming and anxious to please without being intrusive. Reasonable fixed price menus are matched by sensibly priced wines. Nothing outstanding on the menu but nobody was disappointed.
