Reviews for Bouchon Bistro in Yountville, CA
Came here for lunch and wasn’t disappointed! The salmon was the best salmon my boyfriend and I have ever tried and the gnocchi... was amazing as well. We were too full to try dessert. The onion soup was good but didn’t stand out as anything special,there’s probably better starters to go for. Read more
The food. That's why we went and we were not disappointed in that aspect. We decided on Bouchon for our 20th anniversary... dinner. The food was excellent, the wait staff was excellent. The only downside is that we were seated in a corner of a longwall booth. They had to pull our table out for us to get into the booth. There were multiple tables on either side of us. Thewaiter for the table next to us constantly squeezed between the tables. When I say squeeze, I mean squeeze. His thighs weretouching our table and our neighbors table. Not very appealing having the waiters rear end hovering over your table, food anddrinks. Back to the food. My steak was perfectly cooked, the escargot was amazing. Dessert was perfect. I highly recommendBouchon for their food. A lot of people were celebrating birthdays and receiving a bag of brownies etc. with candles. We werejust celebrating 20 years of marriage(no big deal right!?) and were told Happy Anniversary on our way out the door. It seemslike a great place to be acknowledged for your birthday, not so much for an anniversary. In conclusion. The food upheld itsreputation. It was quite loud inside, and I felt packed in... So the atmosphere is not quite "romantic" or calming. Would I goback. 100%. The food was that good. Now I know what to expect. I hope this review helps other people out. Read more
I've had the privilege at dining at Thomas Keller's well known restaurants like Per Se and French Laundry, but never at his... staple Bouchon Bistro in Yountville. Everything was so amazing and full of flavor. The escargot was one of the best I've everhad. The oysters were also very fresh. My wife got the special steak bouchon and loved it. Service was great as well. It waspacked, even at 4pm, so make sure you have a reservation! Read more
Upscale restaurant in the heart of Napa! A friend recommended this to us, and we had to try it out. The mussels we ordered were... some of the freshest we have ever had. The escargot was DELICIOUS! Our waitress was amazing and friendly, and she gave us alittle bag of truffles at the end for our anniversary. We felt very taken care of. Read more
It was so crowded on Sunday, nice place to have a French style causal lunch. Staffs are nice and service is good enough to make... us feel comfortable, even we are seated at the bar. Food is delicious, we ordered devil eggs, mussel and duck leg. Feel likehaving a chill Sunday at France. Read more
We enjoyed every bit of this place! It was crowded and fully booked when we came in, so we decided to sit at the bar. The... Bartender was amazing and promptly made us drinks. The food was delicious and the truffle fries are a must have! Read more
For our first visit to the Napa area, we decided to fulfill our foodie goals (we are not wine people!) and visit a Thomas Keller... original. We LOVED it here. The weather was lovely enough to enjoy a long dinner on the patio, and we went all out and tried afair sampling of the menu. It was fantastic. The service was wonderful as well, we were well attended to. We will be back to tryAd Hoc. And don't be deterred by the line at the bakery next door, it's worth the wait! Read more
Maybe Thomas Keller has good recipes, but definitely were executed poorly the night we were there. Overall the food was good but... way too salty, especially the devil egg and brisket entree. Service was okay, felt very rushed. Unfortunately it’s one of theworst Michelin 1 star restaurants I’ve been, feel like it got awarded 1 star just because of Thomas Keller’s name, not foodor service.
