Bouchard Restaurant showed no signs of declined service, cuisine or atmosphere. We could not possibly have picked a better place for our wedding anniversary celebration. The escargot and pate’ appetizers with cocktails were perfect! We paired champagne and wine with sumptuous Dover Sole and Lamb Chops entrees, and finished with the signature Soufflé. Marco was our superbly engaging, but non-intrusive waiter. 5++ Stars Dining!
My wife and I had a fabulous dinner at Bouchard. The restaurant was not too busy and the waiter Daniel was one of the best waiters we have ever encountered and he made our visit very special. The food was outstanding and the wine was good too. And overall it was very good value...enough money to be special but not too much that it was scary on the pocket!
Awesome dining experience. Food and service were outstanding!
Amazing food and service! Will come back for sure.
It was our 50th wedding anniversary and the evening was wonderful! The food service & ambiance cannot be
surpassed. By far one of the best restaurants in RI !!!
Highly recommend Bouchard to anyone visiting Newport. The food, service, and ambiance were top notch. We will definitely be returning and telling everyone we know about our wonderful experience. délicieux!
Fabulous menu and wine list. Just delicious.
This is my favorite special occasion restaurant!! Food, service, and atmosphere are top notch ! You will not be disappointed.
The presentation of the food is always important to me as well as great service and I found Bouchard to have both- loved the attention to detail. It was my Boyfriend’s birthday and they greeted him with a Happy Birthday when we entered. We had a great experience- thank you!
Bouchard is my favorite restaurant! The staff is amazing, the food is delicious and innovative, and the service is legendary. If you have not had the pleasure to visit them, I encourage you to make your reservation today! You will thank me.
The service was exceptional. The food was really good,
a bit pricey but worth it. The Grand Marnier Souffle was
out of this world!
If you like French food this is a must must...everything was outstanding from the service to the atmosphere to the food and the soufflé is a real treat... totally enjoyed this and will be back again reservations are hard so make them early.
Incredible food, service, vibe and overall an amazing restaurant experience that’s worth every penny.
The sauces in each dish are absolutely incredible. If you haven’t eaten here yet, you’re missing out. Period.
the experience did not disappoint, will continue to be our preferred choice for special occasions. Thank you very much.
Very good food and service! Definitely a place to come back to!
Marco was fun and a superior server. Food gets better every year!
We loved our entire evening!
Always a wonderful meal and superb service. Attention to details and to customers is top notch!
My third or fourth dinner at Bouchard’s and wonderful as before, a really fine dining experience .
From start to finish...simply some of the VERY BEST FOOD & SERVICE in Newport. This was our third dinner here & we will definitely be back many times!
Wonderful evening. This is fine dining in downtown Newport RI. ! Romantic atmosphere, superbly prepared entrees plus & friendly wait staff!
Delicious food, cozy atmosphere and great service!
Bouchards is one of our favorite restaurants...wonderful food, service, and ambience. We just enjoyed a wonderful "special occassion" meal for my husband's birthday on a cold and snowy Monday night, and found that their high standards and warmth have been maintained during the pandemic.
Perfect meal. Great drinks, awesome lobster bisque and appetizer. Duck and pork tenderloin flawless. Wonderful soufflé. Nothing to complain about!
This was amazing! I would 100% recommend to any and everyone!
Excellent food and service, nice intimate place. Found myself wanting a real knife for the duck breast but it was cooked just right so you could get away with the butter knife provided with a little extra force. Champagne glasses felt dollar store-ish too, which is not great with $150 champagne. But honestly, serveware was the only minor complaint-the stuff that matters-food and service were all great! We split the lobster bisque for appetizer 1. Escargot was delicious and the saucer was served in was nice. Wife had re stuffed lobster with truffle and it was not overpowering/overused like it sometimes can be elsewhere. Had the pre-ordered soufflé which was perfect. Apples done multiple ways for additional desert. Max was our waiter and spot on for everything, glass never too full or too empty, food service timed well. Not intrusive or hovering just always appeared exactly when needed. Had notated in reservation it was our anniversary and we were greeted with a congratulations upon arriving, with playful lettering on the dessert plates and complimentary champagne toast at finish. Would definitely go again!
Great food. Great atmosphere. Great service. Will definitely return
My husband and I enjoyed our 25 year anniversary. We shared 4 courses and split 4 glasses of wine. Dan did a beautiful job pairing our wines with each course. Can not remember the last time I had such a perfect experience of food, wine, atmosphere and service. Thank you Dan!
It has become a tradition for our personal holidays ( Birthday, Anniversary, Valentines, Etc.) to celebrate with the privilege going to Bouchards. Very intimate and romantic. If you love your spouse he or she will never forget such a wonderful experience. Thank You Bouchards for making our marriage that much more special.
Incredible
Best restaurant in Newport. We always go back every time we visit and we are never disappointed. Truly a complete dining experience in every way.
Our go to place every time we visit Newport. Another amazing meal! Thank you Max for the wonderful service!
We decided to have our Christmas Eve dinner here because we had loved the outstanding food and service when we visited several years before. Our return visit didn't disappoint. My veal chop was very tender with a lovely sauce. I also had the Grand Marnier soufflé which I highly recommend. My daughters enjoyed duck and scallops and their desserts of chocolate cake and crème brule. The service was very attentive and, while the food is pricey, you get good value. We left very satisfied.
Bouchard’s is my favorite restaurant in Newport. Perfect dining experience every time.
We had a wonderful well needed date night.. love love everything!
Excellent food and service in a warm and friendly atmosphere.
As always, the food is incredible and the setting, perfect! The grand marnier souffle is a must have!
Excellent food!!
Relaxed classy. Staff appreciates your business. Knowledgeable. Everything was delicious.
Our go-to for special occasions such as this, our anniversary. Marco, our table captain, was friendly, fully knowledgeable, and prompt. Food was spectacular. Perfect evening
