Le Bouchon Du Grove

12-2025: Periodically, we come into town. When we do, it's here that we come to dine. If teleportation were real, then walking into this place is the doorway to France. Phenomenal atmosphere, thoughtful staff, but what really makes it superb is the attention to the craft of authentic French cooking. When you ask for something medium rare, you're going to get medium rare. Subtle, complimentary flavors are a taste bud treat. You'll want to eat more slowly than normal to savor each bite. Started with Salade Bouchon with butter lettuce, goat cheese, and a creamy red wine dressing. The butter lettuce is the key. This with a glass of MERLOT, CHEVALIER, ALEXIS LUCHINI PAYS D OC. Not over-powering. The main course was an Angus beef fillet with a Dijon sauce. This came with a mild-cheesy gratin. Ho

Four of us went here for brunch/lunch and were quickly seated at a table outside by a server at 12:30. After that it was incredibly slow service and we had to ask multiple times for a menu. We placed our orders the next time we saw the server; 2 French onion soups, 2 omelets, and 2 beef filet sandwiches. 35 minutes to get the soups, then another 20 minutes+ to get the main course. Incredibly slow and no updates on where our orders were. Food was average for flavor but everything was greasy. Each omelet came with only 4 potato wedges. Hopefully it was an off meal because the reviews do not match the experience my group had.

The only minorly negative thing I could say about this is it is a bit crowded, but I got over it quickly. The service was friendly and not pushy, very gracious. The complimentary glass of champagne was a welcome touch. The bread, which is not something I would typically eat or remark upon was delicious. Our table shared a tomato and prosciutto salad, it was great but the star of the show was the chicken fricassee with the porcini risotto. There was an enormous portion. The chicken was tender to the point of perfection. The risotto flavor was deep and rich. The salmon dish was equally wonderful. I wish I lived closer.

Approved by my French boyfriend for its authentic French food. The onion soup was perfect for winter, the filet mignon was tender, and the Boeuf Bourguignon delicious. Relaxed, family-style bistro vibe — and they welcomed us with a mimosa.

We had a phenomenal lunch! Started with the escargot and the tomato lotus we shared the chicken fricasse, which was absolutely to die for. Would try again next time I'm In Miami!
