   Le Bouchon is our favorite restaurant, and I have been going there since it opened in 1993. It's as close to being transported to a neighborhood bistro in Paris as possible. The food is excellent and Oliver and his long-tenured staff provide a fantastic experience!

   Honestly It was pretty average. Maybe even below average. I’ve been trying to get in here for awhile and I’m kind of upset with how it went. Our server was rushed and was clearly rushing us. The food was fine, we got the tuna crudo to start. It came over this sugary cracker which did not taste good. The escargot was fine. The steak frites were very good. Only thing worth getting there. Our bill was $250 dollars. This was weirdly high so we checked what we were being charged for and our server “accidentally” added a $40 charge for a side of extra sauce…..

   Le Bouchon is the closest you can get to a Paris bistro dining experience in Chicago, and it always has been. Tonight marked our 29th year dining there.

   Onion soup had few onions and lots of bread. Mussels were very salty. Small amount of rabbit in that dish. Very noisy. Didn't need music playing loudly. Distracted pounding coming from the kitchen. Very disappointing evening
