A French steak house chain opened the doors to its new Surbiton restaurant at 12pm today (Tuesday, 6 January).

Bordelaise, which already has restaurants in Tooting and Epsom and Ewell, has replaced the former Mems restaurant on Maple Road.

The Surbiton restaurant boasts a small but cosy interior and has a back garden/ terrace.

As you first enter the branch, you will be welcomed by friendly staff and see a pristine, French-style bar.

Bordelaise's menu includes various bar snacks, starters, salads (including a Steak Caesar Salad), mains, grill dishes, sides, and even Sunday roast options, including one for veggies.

To drink, it offers a variety of red, white, rose, and sparkling wines, apertifs, soft drinks, and liquors.

Speaking about the decision to open a restaurant in Surbiton, the branch's manager said: "A great opportunity arose for the venue in Surbiton, so we took it."

While the Surbiton restaurant already has a couple of table and chairs set on the main road, Bordelaise has also submitted a licensing application to Kingston council seeking permission to have an outdoor seating area at its Surbiton venue for the "sale of food or drink for consumption on or off the premises".

The area will consist of a "streetfront 6.6 metres by 4.5 metres for the purpose of consuming food or drink" and will be open 11am – 10pm seven days a week.

It will have 16 "bistro style" chairs and eight tables.

Residents have until Tuesday, 13 January to submit representations for this application and can do so here.

Maple Road is a hotspot for Surbiton dining, and while the new Bordelaise is perfectly situated next to Cento Uno, another French restaurant, The French Table, is only a couple doors down.     

Bordelaise Surbiton is open from 12pm – 11pm Tuesday to Saturday, 12pm – 9pm on Sundays and is closed on Mondays.
