Royal Boucherie

Drinks were good. Enjoyed the charcuterie - came with selection of meats & pickles (no cheese fyi). The steak frites was good. Duck confit was delicious - smaller portion size. Reservation for 2 - booth style seating next to each other with small cafe table. Worked for us watch out for older parties :)

Always a good time at Royal Boucherie! The food and flavors are incredible. The beet salad is always so fresh and tasty! The onion soup is my favorite and one of the best in the city… if not THE BEST! They have an amazing bar with interesting and delicious cocktails too! The staff are friendly and easygoing while also super personable. The place has a beautiful ambiance and the perfect place for date night or even just a solo brunch!

A dark ambiance! Stopped in for a drink and dessert! The wine selection was very expansive and the food menu looked great! The crème brûlée was very tasty, the sugar too was perfectly cooked, the custard was pleasant and dense. The French fries with garlic aioli were incredible to snack on! Will definitely come back for more dishes!

I wanted to try French cuisine while visiting Philadelphia, so I made a reservation at Royal Boucherie, a long-standing French restaurant in the heart of Old City. It did not disappoint. The escargot and moules royale (mussels) I ordered were both excellent. The escargot came in a sauce with lovely, deep flavor, while the mussels were served in a saffron white wine sauce that was equally delightful. Both dishes were paired with lightly toasted slices of baguette, which complemented them perfectly. My wife had the onion soup and the breakfast sandwich, both of which were very good. The ambiance was splendid as well, with all the warmth and charm of a true French bistro.

Walking into the restaurant you are greeted with a very French style theme which starts from the music and extends all the way to the general decor. It makes you feel as if you're in a cute French bistro that's run by chefs that smoke way too much and has a waiter that's probably too rude to handle, but here the chefs are extremely nice and the waiters are super nice. I got the liver mousse and the escargot which were both full of flavor and cooked to perfection. However I will note the bread that comes with both dishes has some pretty inconsistent quality which is why I give it a 9 instead of a 10. The first serving of bread(is it a baguette?) was the essential equivalent of eating croutons, the second serving was soft and warm, and the third serving was hard and warm. Overall this made e
