More information on Byzantium

At this restaurant, the decor alone is stunning, with stone, crystal, wood, marble, and glass combined to create an unusual, even offbeat, restaurant with rich colors, informal corners, and subtle lighting, plus the sweep of a marble staircase. The cuisine almost could be called fusion though it's mainly modern French. The venue is on two floors, with a cavernous bar/lounge downstairs with padded seats where entertainment is provided -- from tango and belly dancing to magicians. The restaurant's "Food Lantern" is unique in Bristol, consisting of a selection of elaborate nibbles served on a two-tier iron slate. For a main course, we were delighted with Challans duck prepared two ways -- a duck leg marinated in red wine and braised, and the breast pink roasted and garnished with streaky bacon. An elaborate John Dory appeared roasted with seared scallops and a crispy king prawn mousse garnished with chile, ginger, garlic, and coriander linguini with a coconut-cream sauce. For dessert, a second Food Lantern is brought out, laden with a selection of "little puddings." Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
