Had the loveliest lunch. The mocktail was fabulous - light and fresh, subtle flavors. The soupe l’oignon was wonderful, the croque Madame had a perfectly fried egg on top, and I had never had a Mont-Blanc before but it was fantastic. My server Francesco was the best part - knowledgeable, attentive, and extremely concerned with me having the best experience. He highly recommended the Mont-Blanc and I very much appreciated his recommendation. We had an amazing experience. Everything was perfect — the food, the atmosphere, and the service. Mariana was our server, she was professional with a beautiful smile. She took care of us carefully. We ordered the French onion soup, Caesar salad, and a ribeye au poivre served with a delicious peppercorn sauce— absolutely fantastic. For dessert, we had the Paris-Brest and Mille-feuille, both incredibly fresh and beautifully made. As a pastry chef myself, I can say the desserts were truly exceptional. Highly recommended — can’t wait to come back! Yesterday we decided to finally try la grand boucherie for our 7th year anniversary. From the beginning they greeted us and coat checked us. The front staff was very friendly and welcoming. They immediately sat us down. And our server, Reilly was so knowledgeable and friendly and it totally made the night even more special. She knew the menu and gave us her suggestions from drinks to dessert. They started us off with some bread and butter which was so amazing it self. The bread texture was perfect topped with the whipped butter… we couldn’t stop eating it! We got the steak frites and the wagu burger. Both were divine and mouth watering. One of the best burger and steaks we ever had. We also got dessert which was suggested by Reilly and was amazing! They gave us some complimentary champagne for our anniversary and at the end they even gave us a signed book which was so thoughtful and kind! Definitely recommend this place!

Amine Was amazing and serving and recommending great drinks and entrée! We started out with mussels and awesome salad! He recommended a drink that tasted like rose and also another drink that has a spice to it as well called Phoenix. I will recommend the rose drink, and also the Phoenix on the side. Also, the Tomahawk steak is amazing as well. The environment is awesome and you will not regret how open ceiling it is! I recommend this place!

Great atmosphere , the waiter and the staff are kind and friendly . The food took too long to come out and it was good but definately not mind blowing. The atmosphere and the vibe are so exquisite that i expected the food to be the same. But the food was a 7/10 or 8/10. While the atmosphere is 10/10 . We show up for lunch and the service took their time. Kinda wish it wasnt a hour + endeavor. But over all will come again when i need to peacock
