Don't Go – I booked reservations at Bouley 4 weeks ahead of time for a Saturday night seating. Once, we got to Bouley we were told there would be another 45 minute wait for our table. The restaurant overbooked the seating and there were about 70 people waiting for a table. We didn't sit down until 10.30pm and it was NOT worth the wait. The food and service were fine but not worth the aggravation!!
Perfection – We came to Bouley for our anniversary and I couldn't have dreamt of a better evening. Even though we had to wait over an hour to be seated (with reservations!), the waitstaff certainly made up for it. Several "freebies" interspersed throughout the meal, attentive and entertaining service, and the food...oh the food...utter perfection. They worked around my dietary restrictions and created truly sumptuous concoctions. Definitely worth every penny.
A Wonderful Experience – The food was all we could have expected, the service completely professional. I especially enjoyed the desserts. Our waiters were very attentive and precise. I really felt comfortable, almost all the tables have a banquette. We ate in the "Red Room" and it was a little dark for me, but still a lovely feeling. While we were waiting for our car, the host staff was very friendly and accomodating, checking in on us many times. I will definitely return and I recommend it highly.
service is dreadful – The food can be fantastic, but Bouley can have the worst service in the city if you catch them on an off night--and there are MANY off nights. Beware.
To Die For – Lunch there was a spiritual experience. The $45 tasting menu was superb and a bargain to boot. The service was impecible, the decor charming and the presentation very polished. The little going away gift of chocolate was a delightful added touch.
Not enchanted – We've tried the tasting menu twice so feel we've given the place a chance and have concluded for the money, we do much better elsewhere. Design is fabulous, but the setting goes only so far. The food just didn't dazzle. When you're spending this kind of money, everything should be excellent.
Exquisite Dining – I have eaten here a few times now and every time I am more impressed by the quality of the food and service. It offers two lunch menus, a 3-course for $35 and a 4-course for $45, which are great values. Bouley designs the most unique-tasting and flavorful dishes. The sommelier is very knowledgeable and helpful with selecting wines and all of the staff is equally helpful and friendly. I can't wait to go back again!
Still great after all the years! – I dined at Bouley last night for the first time since September 11, and it was absolutely fabulous. The renovation is marvelous. The room that was the bakery is now the best room in the house! Service was top-notch. George is divine! Food was magnificent. The seared foie gras was simply the best ever!: huge portion perfectly prepared. You must treat yourself and go!
Some of the best FOOD in the city! – I went for the prix fixe, 5-course lunch and had a truly AMAZING experience - - well worth the money. The service was prompt and friendly - - plates were cleared quickly and courses brought out in a timely fashion. The atmosphere was intimate yet not stuffy - - I was not crowded next to my neighbors at the next table and it wasn't too loud. The food was some of the best that I've had (and I've tried many restaurants) - - the portions were plentiful and we were stuffed by the 3rd course! T... read more
