"This is the first time my wife and I have ever walked out of a restaurant. Party of 2, arrived at 6pm for a 6:30pm reservation. My wife and I enjoyed a drink at the bar, which was excellent. We were then seated outside at 6:30, and things went downhill. We saw 2-3 servers/staff stop and look at us but no one, no one, said anything to us, let alone greet us. It was a gorgeous night and we were chatting so we didn't pay much mind. After a bit, however, it was ridiculous. My wife went to the hostess stand. We were quickly given some bread and waters. It was 7:05pm. We were told the manager and a server would be over in a minute. At this point we were done. At 7:08pm we had it and left, opting to walk a short distance to Lib's Grill. On the walk over I called the restaurant to ask why we were ignored and spoke with the manager. While pleasant and apologetic out night out was compromised. She said they were short staffed and had several large parties that needed attention. We were very much looking forward to a good night and what looked and smelled to be great food. The manager asked us to come back and she would give us a $25 gift certificate. I said we were there for 38 minutes at a table, in the front to boot, and were completely ignored. Why would we walk back? In this day and age, completely unacceptable. Shame on Galliano, thank you Lib's Grill for a terrific meal and outstanding service!"

"Boucherie is undoubtedly one of my all-time favorite dining spots in all of Manhattan. Every visit feels like a special occasion, thanks to the consistently exceptional service and culinary offerings. The menu is a delightful homage to classic French cuisine, and I’ve found myself drawn to several standout dishes. The steak tartare is expertly seasoned, with a perfect balance of flavors and textures that always leaves me craving more. The scallops are beautifully seared, tender, and served with a sauce that complements them flawlessly. The octopus is another highlight—grilled to perfection and bursting with flavor, it’s a must-try for seafood lovers. For heartier fare, the beef bourguignon is a rich, comforting dish that embodies the essence of French cooking, while the ribeye steak is simply divine—juicy, flavorful, and cooked exactly to order. Each dish showcases the kitchen’s attention to detail and commitment to quality. The beverage selection is equally impressive, featuring an excellent array of French wines that pair wonderfully with the menu. Whether you’re a wine connoisseur or just looking to explore, there’s something for everyone. Additionally, Boucherie offers a fantastic selection of absinthe and creative cocktails that elevate the dining experience. Our server, Lola, deserves a special mention. She was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable, providing excellent recommendations and making sure our experience was flawless. Her warm demeanor added to the inviting atmosphere of the restaurant. Overall, I can’t recommend Boucherie highly enough. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a night out, this restaurant delivers an unforgettable experience that captures the spirit of French dining. It’s a true gem in Manhattan that I’ll keep returning to."
