Customer Reviews
Everything was fantastic. Photos and videos here of some things we ordered. Especially great was the trout, very simple and without sauce (maybe it could have had a little bit). The bread was unique and great. Salad Lyonnaise was perfect with thick bacon. Trout very flavorful. Deviled eggs were also great. Escargot was served with puff pastry on top, also exceptional. I don’t really like hearing Drake played at a restaurant this good. It’s distracting and not in the vibe.
The food at Bouchon Bistro Coral Gables didn’t really impress me; it feels like the quality has dropped compared to previous visits. The flavors were fine but lacked the spark and finesse they used to have. On the positive side, the service was impeccable, professional, friendly, and attentive and the atmosphere remains elegant and inviting. They offer valet parking, a fresh and well-presented raw bar, and an excellent, extensive wine list. However, I find it a bit overpriced for the current quality. Still a beautiful spot for a nice evening, but not quite the standout it once was.
This is a nice place to go have really good food, good service and a nice atmosphere. A few veriety of delicacies with so much flavour in them. Also, they have a vast variety of cocktails in their digital cocktail menu that you can try along the entire dinner. The staff is so knowledgeable of the menu and will recommend you accordingly. Paid parking nearby.
This restaurant is a gem. The service is excellent—attentive, warm, and perfectly paced. Every detail feels carefully thought out, from the bread and butter to the presentation of each plate. I ordered the lamb, which was incredibly tender and full of flavor, perfectly balanced with the sauce and sides. My wife had the trout, beautifully cooked with a delicate texture and rich, buttery taste. Both dishes showed the kind of precision and quality you’d expect from a Thomas Keller restaurant. The wine list is impressive, with a great selection by the glass and bottle that pairs beautifully with the menu. The ambiance is cozy and elegant, making it a perfect spot for a romantic dinner or a special occasion. Highly recommend—it’s easily one of the best dining experiences in Coral Gables.
Our experience was excellent; all our expectations were met from the moment we were greeted at the door. We ate as if we were in Paris. The escargots were 1000% recommended, and the soup of the day was gazpacho, but not the ordinary kind; it was the best I've ever eaten, unfortunately, it's only served in the summer, I congratulate the chef for that. I must highlight Dragan's excellent service, he always treated us with his best disposition and smile...I only have two complaints: there was no butter knife, and they would clear away plates before the other person had finished them but that's a matter of better training the staff who do it. In short, we definitely want to go back again.
