    Our first time at Cafe Boulud and we enjoyed a delightful breakfast! The restaurant and hotel are absolutely beautiful. The service was fantastic and attentive - given we were there on Christmas morning we really appreciated the servers and hosts giving the impression there was no place they'd rather be. The food is delicious - everything was done really well. It will definitely be on our list of possibilities for future special occasions

    Great ambience, delicious food, excellent service. A trifecta. The room in the back has great ambience, but in the winter the heaters are on, so dress light or in layers! If you like a cooler room temperature (which I do), sit in the front. Both areas have a lovely atmosphere.

    A 5* experience! We enjoyed the holiday ambience, so much positive energy, the service was absolutely sublime! We started with oysters and crudo; followed by gluten free penne ala vodka.. This was a very seriously tasty gluten free pasta, strongly recommend.. Branzino was so tender with a crispy skin; there is some elegant lightness to this dish, a must try.. Side grilled mushrooms and broccolini are insane! Thank Zia and the team, Happy Holidays!
