Stopped by here on a Saturday as a solo diner to take advantage of happy hour. It was my first time visiting this Boucherie but I highly recommend it as a solo spot. I sat myself at the bar and was made to feel welcome straight away. I decided to order the oysters and the charcuterie board (both from the happy hour menu) along with a glass of sparkling wine. The pacing of the food being delivered was perfect for me, with a good wait between my order and the food arriving but not so long that it felt you had been waiting an age. I went for a mixture of east and west coast oysters (a small complaint is that these were served so cold that I think some of the flavour was lost). The charcuterie board was a great portion of meat, especially for the price. I also decided to order dessert and got the profiteroles. The pastry and the chocolate sauce were delicious, However, I am used to profiteroles being filled with cream and these just had too much ice cream filling for me so I would probably order something else next time (this is down to personal preference though instead of the dish being bad). All in all I really enjoyed my time here and will definitely be back. Total bill (including my food, 2 glasses of sparkling wine, tax and tip) was just under $100, which I thought was good value for what I had and the area I was in. They currently have an offer with 50% most bottles of wine so have already suggested to my other half we should visit soon and take advantage of that!
Went here around Christmas time for dinner and was fairly disappointed unfortunately. The good: the restaurant is immaculately decorated for the holidays and atmosphere is lively and fun. The bad: the steak was tough and overcooked. I was with a large group of 10+ people and not a single person finished their steak. Desserts and appetizers were ok as well.
This was an absolutely amazing experience from beginning to end! The food and drinks were magnificent and our server Diego was a 10/10! Will most certainly return to celebrate any special occasion.
Stopped by for a quick dinner on a business trip. Lobster bisque for my appetizer and a steak for my main. Seated right away at a center table, server was prompted, professional and courteous. Food: lobster bisque was quite good. Not too salty as can happen. Very nice pieces of lobster steak was medium-rare as requested. Nice glass of merlot with the meal Service: seated right away even without reservations. Server took time to check on me without being intrusive. Atmosphere: beautiful high ceiling entrance with lovely bar to the left and dinning space to the right. Very enjoyable.
