4.6 / 5.0(8,568 reviews)

Lovely service!!!! We came in as a party of 4 right before the restaurant opened and didn't have to wait. Coffee was excellent. My croissant was amazing - extremely flaky and buttery. Egg omelet was good but we could take a bit less goat cheese. Others in our table enjoyed their egg benedict. Service was excellent. Beautiful space!!! Highly recommend!!!! Edit: I came back for dinner. Food wasn't blown away for me due to our set menu. I would come back to try again. The food was spectacular. Easily the best French Onion Soup I’ve ever eaten (including the hundreds of times I’ve made it!) We ordered the mushroom ravioli and the salmon, both delicious, and had the crème brûlée and the Mont-Blane for dessert. Service was just about perfect, and it is such a beautiful spot. Easily accessible, within walking distance for many hotels (we stayed at the Hilton Midtown) This will definitely be a NYC staple for us! La Grande Boucherie is more than just a restaurant; it’s a truly magnificent experience. Stepping inside feels like being immediately transported to a grand, bustling brasserie in Paris, complete with stunning architecture and an incredible, lively atmosphere. The ambiance here is second to none, making it a perfect spot for a special occasion or an impressive business dinner. The decor is opulent, yet the energy keeps it from feeling stuffy. The food lives up to the setting. As expected from a world-class French steakhouse, the steak (as seen in the photos) was cooked to perfection—richly seared on the outside, incredibly tender, and served with a deeply flavorful sauce and beautiful accompaniments. We also thoroughly enjoyed the lighter fare, such as the beautifully plated salmon dish with fresh toppings and a vibrant olive oil drizzle. The service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable, and delivered with the polished professionalism you’d expect from a fine dining establishment. For anyone seeking an authentic, high-quality French culinary experience in the heart of New York City.

Daniela was our hostess and she was amazing! She was professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely attentive to our ‘halal’ diet. She made sure to recommend us the best things on the menu, which were fit to our restrictions/ cravings. The ambiance was beautiful; it reminded me of the time I went to Paris. She gave us the best table upon request and made the space super cozy for us. We spent our wedding anniversary here; it was definitely the right spot to come to. We will definitely be coming back again! 5/5 recommend to every body!

Classic French Brasserie Vibes in the Heart of NYC La Grande Boucherie captures the energy and charm of a Parisian brasserie right in New York City. The décor is stylish and inviting, with an elegant yet comfortable atmosphere. Seating inside is recommended during colder months, as the covered patio can get a bit drafty. The restaurant was lively and bustling with guests from all walks of life, which added to the authentic brasserie feel. We shared the 48oz Tomahawk Steak, and it was delicious. It was cooked as requested, tender, and full of flavor. The presentation and quality were excellent, and the portion was ideal for sharing. La Grande Boucherie also has a great bar and cocktail selection, perfect for enjoying before or during your meal. Overall, it was a great dining experience with delicious food, great ambiance, and good service. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a vibrant French-inspired meal with a steakhouse flair in the city.
