Le Bouchon

Jean Claude Poilevey is a veteran of the restaurant industry and a savvy Chef . The food is simple, intelligent and well executed. The place is small, busy and very French. It feels like you are in Ly

One of my favorite restaurants in Chicago, and definitely the best French one here (since Il Sardine closed). Lots of gems in that wine list , and the mussels were incredible.

Bouillabaisse is orgasmic, literally. Great Rhone wines . Always a great place to celebrate and indulge in the wonders of French cuisine . It's just like when I lived in Grenoble! Bon apetit mes amis.

French onion soup is rich and generously-portioned. Mussels are fresh and served in a buttery cream sauce . Mac and cheese side is also served very creamy. Very much feels like a quaint French cafe .

Garlic-and-thyme-scented roast chicken , a bountiful bouillabaisse , and steak paired with irresistible frites make for great entrees. Cozy quarters and congenial staff add extra appeal. Read more

This fabulous French restaurant has great cuisine and authentic decor. Try the roast duck and tart tatin .

Archetypal neighborhood French bistro dishes up all the classics with panache .

Frisée , Butter Lettuces , Lardons, Croutons , Poached Egg w/ Grain Mustard Vinaigrette

my favorite French place in all of Chicago. Make sure to make a reservation though. Small joint.

Mondays bottle of wine , half price... So get one each!

best restaurant for French inspired food.. Always great food, wine and ambience.

Steak frites , French onion soup and the bread .

There’s something magical about Tuesdays at Le Bouchon, when the entire menu turns into a $25 three-course fête.

Tuesday prix fixe menu is a great deal.

Try the Les Moules - Steamed mussels in a garlic white wine . Yum!!!

Outstanding French food !

Duncan Biddulph, chef of Kinmont, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Salade Lyonnaise. Read more

Escargots need more seasoning. Steak frites meat was very tough.

They didn’t honor the $200 gift certificate I purchased because of COVID. Kind of a bush league play

Onion tart duck for two and a bottle of burgundy

Try the Wild Mushroom Gnocchi

Steak and frites

French food , French vibe, French side-street feel. Always a good time.

Get a three-course prix fixe dinner for $25 on Tuesdays.
