    The food is reliably excellent. Never disappointed. Tasty, served quickly. Good service. Reasonably priced. Appetizers well worth trying. Particularly dumplings.

    Our party came to La Grande Boucherie to celebrate a birthday, and was looking for an upscale fine dining experience. We got exactly that, and our server Tim made the evening incredibly special! A bread basket with warm baguettes was brought out with a lovely soft butter and flaky sea salt. I believe our table ended up having two more bread baskets throughout the meal. Our table of six shared three hors d'oeuvres: escargots, french onion soup, and foie gras. The escargots were delicious, done very classic and served out of the shell. The french onion soup was the crowd favorite. The foie gras was decadent, although the toast it and the escargots came with was a thick soft bread lightly toasted, and we preferred the baguette from the bread basket. For drinks I had the La Touissant cocktail and a Hendricks martini twist. La Touissant was a bright cocktail that was fun and bubbly. It was served in a stemless wine glass. My martini was perfect, and the stemware was stunning! The nicoise was my entree, this was well balanced and a healthy portion size. Others at the table had moules frites, porc diane, bolognese, ribeye, and duck cassoulet. Everyone enjoyed their entrees, although the ribeye came closer to medium than medium rare. After dinner we were deciding on dessert and five of us got Sauternes, and one got Amaro. The wine was lovely, and a great night cap. Tim then brought ice cream and champagne for our table to celebrate the birthday which was incredibly kind and made the birthday girl feel so special. I spoke to Tim as an aside to put my card down so there was no haggling at the end of dinner; he handled it incredibly well and snuck it back to me so no one noticed! The server assistant was also amazing, we were a boisterous table and everyone at La Grande Boucherie made sure we had a spectacular experience and my friend had a marvelous birthday dinner!

    This restaurant is magnificent. You just need to make a reservation several hours in advance and you can get good seats. My seats were right beside a window through which the federal department building was visible. The atmosphere in the restaurant was extremely good and the waiter was super nice. We ordered crab cake, ribeye steak, seafood pasta, and New England clam chowder. All of them were very delicious. Price is not very high ($50~60 each person) compared with many other famous restaurants in DC. I would highly recommend it to other travelers.

    We’ve been eating here pretty much since it opened years ago. We visit about every 7 or 8 weeks. The food this visit was excellent as usual. The service was up to its usual standards, pleasant, efficient and competent. I worked in the wine industry my entire life and I enjoy the fact that they have one of my favorite everyday wines, Muscadet both by the glass and bottle. It goes great with the mussels I had for a main course. Restaurants tend to avoid this wine because customers confuse it with the sweet wine Moscato. Happy to see it.

    OK here is the real deal. In short, you must try this place. The food is amazing, the service was excellent, especially that the place was packed, even on a Wednesday! We ordered the calamari to start, a little oily, but very tasty. The main dishes consisted of lasagna, ravioli and the gnocchi. Each dish was over the top amazing. Yes the price per dish was a lot, but I assure you that majority of the people will take home at least half the plate and have another meal the following day. The final element was the chocolate moose cake that was everything you would expect, rich, flavorful, and naughty. But what the hell. It was a perfect ending to an amazing meal. Reservations are highly recommended, especially if you have a large group.
