    If you want to be transported to Hemingway’s Paris, look no further than Le Bouchon. Service is attentive, but gives you space, food is always a 10/10. Steak frites and Chicken were cooked perfectly. Can’t wait to be back.

    We had a very nice lunch at Le Bouchon. The French onion soup is outstanding. We also enjoyed the beet salad, steak fries and quiche.

    Lovely experience. Service was outstanding. The crust of our onion tart was a bit over cooked. Salad and steak frite was amazing.

    We had a great dinner and experience. This place truly feels like it has been transplanted from Paris. We had a great server that gave us a really nice wine suggestion. We had the cassoulet and Steak Frites “Manion style”. Both were excellent. The truffle profiteroles were surprising and very good. Noise level is high, but adds to the energy of the place.
