    La Grande Boucherie is an absolute gem for anyone looking to experience classic French dining in a stunning setting. The server was so attentive yet unobtrusive, making for a seamless dining experience and I gotta say the steak frites is a standout dish, I will definitely be returning!

    Zuppa de Peace was very good with an assortment of shellfish and fish in a seafood brodo over creamy polenta was an excellent value. Service was prompt and very courteous with all questions asked expertly answered.

    Very pleasantly surprised by the quality of an establishment that caters to the pre-theater crowd. Service was first rate. Garlic foccacia made a great starter. The 2 lb. lobster was perfectly prepared and a bargain. My partner had the carbonara, which was authentically prepared with guanciale in the Roman tradition, not something often seen in U.S. restaurants, which mainly use pancetta.
