Great ingredients and execution for food that is delicious without being overcomplicated. We had a lovely lunch on the ground floor terrace overlooking a small but pleasant lawn. Service was friendly. Very nice experience.

Go upstairs for the restaurant patio seating during Thursday happy hour menu till 7pm. Live band outside playing and the food is delicious. Came to celebrate with a friend his new job promotion and ordered plenty of drinks. Old fashion and house red were good to get buzzed, we ordered two each. Hot dog on pretzel was delicious and juicy. And ordered a hunch of sides as finger food as we talked like fries, salmon tartare, and charcuterie. Nice atmosphere and service was attentive kept filling up our water glass and asking if we needed anything else. Recommend as a great lounge spot at the end of the day with buddies. Parking was underground.

I’ve been here numerous times for lunch.

AMBIANCE of the 2nd floor of Bouchon is more akin to a French style brasserie – dark wood panels, tiled floors, brass fixtures, high ceilings and an eye-catching seafood bar.  Very energetic and can get quite loud unless you’re seated in the private dining area overlooking the street.  I think there were smaller tables on the street balconies, but since it was raining that day, everyone opted for the Main Dining Room.

Most of the lunch patrons appeared to be a mix between Beverly Hills and LA locals on a shopping break, Montage hotel guests, and business people. Dressy casual ranging from t-shirts and jeans, to shirts and slacks.  It’s BH, but no need to dress to the nines here.

SERVICE was nearly perfect from the greeters and waiter except the busboys made us feel slightly rushed when they took the last nub of Epi baguette without asking and almost walked off with my fries until my friend quickly intervened.  Water glasses were always being replenished without asking. To be fair, it took the 2 of us to finish our 3-course lunch in an hour and a half – I noticed most lunch patrons were in and out in about an hour or so. My 2nd visit was just fine service wise.

FOOD at Bouchon is the antithesis of what French Laundry offers – none of the wit, playing with the senses and derring-do execution displayed at the Yountville flagship that I experienced in the mid-90s.  Rather, Bouchon offers Thomas Keller’s Californized renditions of French homestyle bistro classics. It’s not supposed to wow your senses.  The end goal is to provide a lighter stick-to-your-ribs meal in upscale settings.

Description of some of the items I’ve had during my visits:

Salmon Tartar – Scottish salmon with a dollop of crème fraiche, chopped hard-boiled egg, capers, and red onions.  The toasted crouton slices were the perfect vehicle to smear the tartar mix.

Moules Frites – was skeptical after reading the description of Maine mussels cooked in cider, tarragon, mustard, shallots and bacon, but this was so surprisingly delicious, I ate every morsel and sopped the last bit of broth with Bouchon’s in-house baked Epi baguette. In the generous serving of steamed mussels, there was only one with a tiny bit of grit.  Absolutely no sand in the broth. Fries were thin and crisp.   

Profiteroles – ended lunch with the cream puffs filled with French Vanilla ice cream.  Profiteroles came plain and then the server offered to pour the warm chocolate sauce over the puffs. Who’s gonna refuse that? 

For those concerned about prices, Bar Bouchon at street level offers many similar dishes at  1/2 the cost in more relaxed and quieter surroundings.

The complimentary bread and butter alone make this place worth it. The seasonal steak salad is delicious! Best BLT I’ve ever had! The espresso martini was delicious.

Overpriced french restaurant. Food is exquisite but you can get similar quality food without bleeding your wallet elsewhere.

The food was exquisite. It was exactly how the waiter described it so it really met our expectations. Service was excellent too! They gave us complimentary drinks cuz our food was late. So it was okay. It wasn’t our first time, and we would definitely come back! Especially for their Fried Chicken Mondays! ❤

I came for the opening party, so I can’t say much about the entrees and menu. But the restaurant is enormous and the dining room seemed so far away from the entrance, down corridors and up flights of stairs.
The inside bar is lovely and rustic, with a vintage French feel. Not to mention the hot bartenders…There is ample bar space and a nice deck, and beautiful views of the area and surrounding hotel.
Wine, cheese, champagne, and appetizers were all wonderful. Mr. Keller showed off his amazing attention to detail. The breads were baked to perfection and the macaroons were lovely, as for the multitude of desserts. Recommend some bread, cheese, and whatever desserts you can get your hands on that day!

Amazing service, fantastic food, exceptional drinks. My company hosted our holiday luncheon here and had a great experience. Perfect room in the rear for a party of 20 or less, with attentive staff! I had the seared duck breast over potatoes and it was so mouth watering I wanted seconds! Great for any meal! Highly recommended!

What a treat — while the restaurant is massive, the service and food are excellent. A 2 for service as our server was a bit green under the gills and spoke so fast that it was difficult to understand. But that’s the only critique I can find. Excellent beer on tap (Delirium Tremens beer, for goodness sakes!) and a very respectable wine list. I hear tell that the Bar is a great place as well for a quick bite, a drink and chatting.

Fabulous outdoor location and outstanding Bouchon food. This is the perfect place to grab a quick bite or have leisurely lunch with friends while enjoying the adjacent park view.

Service and food are top notch. Had the open face tuna salad sandich (special) which was huge and outstanding quality. It came with a generous sized side salad. I exercised some restraint and didn’t get a sweet dessert item or pastry – this time.
