The first time we walked into Le Bouchon, we walked out impressed.
A few months later though, a love affair was started and 2.5 years later we still go there every few months (both for special occasions and a normal everyday dinner).
The service: exquisite. There isn't very many staff but somehow, they're the most attentive staff I've ever seen. Julian (the owner) works most nights and always makes sure that everything is okay. We are always warmly greeted at the door like we're old mates and he always seems very genuine.
The food: Yum! The menu changes seasonally so it's always a nice surprise to see what's new. Before you even get your food, the chef sends out little cups of soup as a co...

Le Bouchon is nestled amongst other Willoughby Road cafes and retail outlets in the popular suburb of Crows Nest! Delicious mid-week lunch with the girls for a special birthday! Decided on just one course each after a week of celebrating so of course we had to make it good and be the epitome of what French food stands for! Both friends chose the entree size and the main size Wagyu steak tartare with traditional condiments. The only difference was the larger portion had more baguette and contained a raw egg yolk on top! Looked delicious and certainly didn't hear too many complaints! There are three types of Moules Frites and I opted for the Moules Fromagere w blue cheese, lardon (cubes...
Beautiful meal. We went as a treat on Mother's day when there was a $70 menu for three courses and it was a full house. My wife greatly enjoyed a quail entrée and I had a mushroom soufflé. Both outstanding. For mains I had a duck cassoulet and my wife salmon and we both had crème caramel for desert. The meals were superb. The house wines also remarkably good, we had a glass each for $9 per glass. Our kid had a sirloin from the kids menu and a Nutella crêpe. First class meal and will definitely go again but not on a night when the only option is the full three course menu. It was simply too big a meal for us. We want to select from the à la carte menu next time. The only complaint came from o...

We enjoyed dinner here tonight. We started with a complimentary appetiser of escargot. Entrees we chose the seared scallops (quite small) and the French Onion Soup (a little bland). Thing improved with the mains which were the duck and the barramundi with clams. Both mains were lovely however I wasn't too sure about the combination of Barramundi & clams. Probably didn't need it but instead vegetables or similar.
The wine was a 214 Sancerre which was wonderful.
Service (all French) was great albeit under the pump. Will definitely return.
It was suggested to try this restaurant on our visit to Crows Nest this weekend from the Hunter Valley. Well, we are glad we took their advice. We had the 8 course degustation with matching wines and it didn’t disappoint. The food was incredible, my favorite the scallops , and the wines served with the dishes, not surprisingly, matched perfectly. Staff were extremely knowledgeable with the wine selections, friendly and attentive and we would not hesitate recommending this restaurant to anyone looking for a French experience to remember. Merci
Lovely French food, everything we ordered was delicious. The service was also friendly and helpful. The only thing I would suggest is to improve the decor - the outside courtyard is pretty but inside is bare and lifeless! The ambiance should match the excellent food :)
Regardless, we'll be back!
Delicious **** french food here! Had breakfast here and the piccolo was on point, croque madam was decadent and the staff and service so friendly. 10/10 will be back for dinner ????
