Le Bouchon is a hidden gem in Bucktown. The food is incredible and the menu constantly rotates so there’s always something new to try! Sit in Medina’s section if you can, she’s the best and always has great recs <3

The service was excellent. Highly advised to make reservations in advance since seating is very limited. The food was delicious and options were plentiful.
