   Food was not what we expected chicken was undercooked way too salty fish was over cooked and did not taste like anything we will not be going back anymore.

   I had the duck and it was a disappointment. Very expensive for the caliber of cuisine. Nothing to write home about with this experience.

   I recently dined at La Grande Boucherie, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience! As someone with celiac disease, dining out can often be stressful, but the team at La Grande Boucherie went above and beyond to ensure my safety and comfort. Before my visit, I reached out to let them know about my dietary restrictions, and their response was incredibly reassuring. They informed me that their head chef and kitchen team were fully aware of my needs and took meticulous care to prevent cross-contamination. While their fryer isn’t gluten-free (so fries were off the menu for me), they made excellent alternative recommendations and ensured that everything I ordered was completely safe. The food was great! The salads were fresh and vibrant, and the steak and eggs were absolutely delicious—cooked to perfection. What made the experience even better was the effort the chef took to make all the appetizers gluten-free, so I could safely share them with my friends. The service was impeccable, and I left feeling both satisfied and safe, which is rare for someone with celiac disease. La Grande Boucherie has set a high standard for gluten-free dining, and I can’t recommend it enough. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

   A mid experience given the overall price point. Service was extremely rushed, with our food being sent in out of order or forgotten all together. Half the steaks were over cooked. Listed half priced wine EVERYDAY at the top of the wine menu then charged full priced. Showed the waiter the area it clearly listed it and he brought another menu to prove us wrong. Messed up the bill and overall ruined the night. The manager was very apologetic and fixed the issue but honestly for the price point this should have been spot on and wasn’t.

   Really lovely room. Like stepping back in time to an 18th century grand atrium…until the server plates the most nouveau French feast.

    We had reserved a table for five. The host tried to give us a table at the top of the stairs where people gather. I refused the table and requested the one next to it. She informed me it was reserved.. AS WAS OURS. She then proceeded to take us up three levels of stairs in a DARK & filthy carpeted staircase to another UNACCEPTABLE table. We awaited my handicapped husband & son who took an elevator through a SERVICE entrance which was very ugly and just awful. As for service.. the waiter gave us BRUNCH menus… it was a 7:15 DINNER reservation. He also did not provide my grandson with a spoon for his soup. We had to request it and wait for it. It took FOREVER to get our check. The food was just.. ok. If they’re trying to be a first class French restaurant.. they have A LOT to learn. The valet parking was $27!! At the end of this note.. five stars were added… they were not put there by me!
