Le Bouchon

Our first stop on our Chicago trip. This place was highly Recommend by one of our friend and i must say it didnt dissapoint. We had the Best Beet salad here. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. My partner got the steak n fries and the pepper sauce was the best. I had trout, which was good aswell. N the apple tart dessert was out of this world. Will come back for sure.

Came here with colleagues since they have good ratings across many platform. I ordered beet salad and escargot as appetizers. Both are good, the salad is very refreshing, all the ingredients blend perfectly. For the main course, I had trout en route and my colleagues had French onion soup and French dip. All are very satisfying. Perfected by the maple creme brulee and apple tart. Definitely recommended, but better make a reservation beforehand. The servers are very attentive and warm.

Known for the steak frittes but we were full so cant order based on that. Got the escargot, steak tartare and french onion soup. Found the escargot to be a bit salty so prepare for that. The tartare had bacon bits which I found to be a bit overpowering? The soup was delicious. Keep in mind the restaurant seating is very cramped to walk through!

If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would. The whole place felt super authentic, like a little piece of France. Everything we ordered was amazing - steak, fries, escargot, even the homemade bread was so good. And the trout was just the cherry on top!! Such an incredible combination of flavors, so delicate and perfectly done.

I manifested Dinner at Le Bouchon. It was my birthday. But let me back up…Two years ago I painted Le Bouchon as I gift for my daughter. I fell in love with learning about the restaurant. I kept saying I can’t wait to go there. And so for my birthday my family gifted me the experience of Le Bouchon. I’m so grateful they did! We started with escargot and warm bread, then baked onion soups… absolutely outstanding. Kevin ordered the trout and declared it the best fish he’s ever had — delicate, flavorful, with a beautiful pea purée that made the whole dish sing. I split the steak frites with my daughter, perfectly cooked and finished with a rich peppercorn sauce. Tony’s pork chop was just as memorable. Dessert sealed it: crème brûlée, perfectly crackled and divine, and a chocolate mint ice cream that was unexpectedly incredible. The space is small and quaint, but that’s part of the magic. Every inch feels alive. The staff was warm, fun, and welcoming, making the whole night feel effortless. Special acknowledgment to Mark.

Perfect French bistro, we had a sublime dinner! Hugo Spritz, regular and mocktail, were lovely. Shared the salade Lyonnaise - very authentic and delicious. Steak Frites with herb butter was tender and flavorful. The ocean trout in puff pastry was also excellent- melts in the mouth! Highly recommend. Our server was a bit slow but she was very nice.
