What People Are Saying About Le Bouchon

In Short – Parisian-style bistro offers professional, amiable service and familiarity that has kept local foodies' Gallic tastes satiated for years. Madame Monique Musquin flutters about the elegant dining room making excellent wine recommendations, while Chef Claude Musquin brings more than 40 years of French culinary experience to the kitchen. The menu features roasted duck breast served with julienne vegetables and creamy potatoes au gratin. For dessert there's decadent chocolate mousse in a martini glass.

Perfect, elegant, simple
by mandalynns
Perfect dining experience. Excellent menu and fantastic specials. We had the duck & beef specials of the night and couldn't have been more satisfied with our choices. The sauces were fabulous!! Meats perfectly prepared. Our waitress was wonderful, perfectly attentive and had all the right suggestions of wines & cocktails to go with our meal. Ambiance was casual, comfortable, cozy and romantic. We couldn't have had a better dining experience. We will definitely be regulars.
- Pros: excellent service, fantastic food
- Cons: nothing wrong with this restaurant

Dependable, tasty food and friendly atmosphere
by matthewmary
It is always a pleasure to go to Le Bouchon. Lunch is reasonably priced (most entrees are $8) and the french onion soup is a warming treat ($7.95). Never fail friendly service with french pop music in the background. Monsieur, the chef, is French with a capital F. It is more Lyonnaise than Parisien. More Bistro than grand restaurant. A great place for lunch. Over the years have never been disappointed - they are wonderful with children and it is romantic in a very European way. Lots of good talk, good wine, good food.
- Pros: Flavorful sauces
- Cons: Parking

worst food in all of Portland
by henry1
Friday night erperience ---we were on ly customers and there were only 2 people working then--a waitress and a cook ----no French people around. French onion soup
was very disappointing, entres were barely edible --i had the bouibase and wife had chicken dish ----no sauce no seasoning --mussels were old and tasted tainted --- 2 appetizers,2 entres, 2 glasses of bad expensive wine --total bil was $75. We felt lied to by previous reviewers and that we had been robbed of
$75--we could have had a better meal at Carls Jr. for lot less.
- Pros: none
- Cons: poor, stale and poorly cooked tasteless food
