Bouchon Bistro Yountville Reviews
Completely over rated!!!! Food not bad but you can get this
Completely over rated!!!! Food not bad but you can get this anywhere. Absolutely nothing special about this restaurant. The seating is tight. You sit literally less than a foot apart from the table next to you. The wine list is a QR code?!?! Really??
First time back in 3 years, and tonight missed the mark.
Two Steak Frittes ordered medium (per my post below!), and one was very undercooked. Sent back, and the new one they sent out was worse! Almost raw in the middle. Had to send back again, and the re-fire was almost burnt at the ends, but finely edible
Totally disappointed.
I thought their French fry was the best in the world. But recently, I visited them and ordered French Fry. It was totally different what I expected. First of all, the cut was much thicker than before, and were so greasy that they had absorbed so mu
This is my third time here.
This time with a baby. We made resos with highchair. We walked in, they said oh the seats we have for you don't fit the highchair can you sit outside? We've sat outdoors with our pup, it's cute but cramped as well. So we opted to just

Came here after getting kicked out of the French Laundry for not having a reservation. Rookie mistake *bahahaha* but the lady at the front desk recommended their sister restaurant Bouchon. We were greeted by a cheerful well dressed hostess and seated
Had a light lunch here and I really enjoyed.
Everything was yummy and the presentation of the food was beautiful. The atmosphere is also wonderful. Prices were fair and the service was great. I would recommend!

Some foods were great, some were pretty good, and one not good. The service was great. Our waiter was polite and attentive. 5 stars for service. The restaurant had a quaint feel, but it was pretty loud. I found it hard to hear my date at times. A

This place is solid! I've been here several times, and it's always worthwhile! Today, the epi bread was served warm. The Gnudi special of the day was fantastic! We also ordered the steak and frites- prepared very well and delicious. Prof

Efficient and polite service.
Delicious food! Steak frites was perfectly cooked with herbed butter. Gnocchi with peppers was so good! Wish I had left room to sop up the sauce with more of the freshly baked bread! Place was packed at lunch, so make reservations! Woman ahead o

We had a wonderful evening at Bouchon last Tuesday made even more romantic by the power going out in the entire town. The wait staff handled it beautifully and dinner went off without a hitch. The food was incredible as you would imagine from a Thoma
Really good authentic baked goods.
Our favorite was the simple yet amazing croissant. The line was long but moved quick. The raspberry macaroons were light yet tasty.
Awesome
Went here to celebrate our anniversary & the food was outstanding. I had the escargot & it was excellent. Had the mussels as my main & it was delicious. My wife had a salad & The steak Fritz. Everything was great & the staff wa
Classically consistent Thomas Keller...
Hard to get a reservation, but worth the wait. Excellent food and service. It can be loud due to acoustics, but staff are very accommodating for those of us with hearing issues. Outside is a delightful option. Service exceptional. Steak Frites i
Beautiful, delicious, popular but a bit pricy for what it offers.
I’d dined at this marvelous Napa valley restaurant many time but not in the past few years. It had always been a favorite. It is just as beautiful as ever and the food is unquestionable delicious but…… I was stunned by how much it has raised it
C’est parfait!
Beautiful, authentic bistro space and vibe! The staff is incredible…super friendly, attentive and fun! Great menu selection and specials
AMAZING FOOD and SERVICE!
Charming place! A little touch of the Brasserie in Paris! We enjoyed so much our table outside on the patio. Sarah in the entrance was so gracious! Amazing service by Andrew.. professional and so friendly, We absolutely love the Pate with cornichons
Small but cosy patio
It was just a regular Tuesday afternoon and it was pretty quiet . We got a nice table on the patio and enjoyed our meal . They broth us two glasses of fine champagne compliments from the chef to start We ordered a few martinis , goat cheese salad , f
Incredible steak frites and dessert
Spectacular dinner. The Steak Frites was probably the best steak I ever had, incredibly tender and flavorful, cooked perfectly. I had Chimay red label with it (my second-favorite Belgian Trappist ale next to the blue label) but they also had lots of
Disappointment
The good news first. They took the chicken dish off the bill after we returned it. Yes a few bites were taken. The staff were polite and attentive even though the place was busy. In fact super noisy. Loud crowd I guess. The bad news. The place is exp
A wonderful lunch in Napa
First time visiting Napa and booked this restaurant. It didn’t disappoint me. The foods are amazingly tasty and well presented. The pastry shop next door is beautiful and attractive with all the pastries made freshly.
Potage 'pnion, devil eggs $33
Get Potage l'onion-onion soup. at $24 it is very pricey, but less than a trip to Frnce and spot on. It is their signature-but not described as such. get the deviled eggs ($8). These two will feed two hungry people with the free bread. and '

Seated quickly with a midweek appointment, service up and down but mostly very professional and efficient. The food was excellent, though my son felt the trout was underseasoned. Overall a very good experience!
Great food. Too loud
Noisy. Wife and I went for dinner. Had reservations and were sat immediately. It was a small marble topped table but the iron base was so large, there was no room for your feet. Very Noisy. Our table bread was overcooked; you couldn’t tear it let a

Another restaurant in Yountville that did not disappoint! I made a reservation on tock 2 days before, and I noticed a lot of open times. I believe you can make a reservation the same day if you wanted to. We came on a Monday for lunch and decided to
The food at Bouchon is always delicious.
Everytime im in napa i must come here. The waitstaff is very attentive and sensitive to our requests. We sat outside this dinner and even know were were basically next to the sidewalk the foliage around the area made us feel secluded and have a priva

Yes it's true that you do sit fairly close to those next to you. However, the service is excellent and the food is delicious. We enjoyed the Laitue salad which was light and flavorful, as well as the Croque Madame with truffle fries. The croque Mad
Food is well prepared but not memorable.
The hostess was very kind. However the service can be better from our server. We had to ask for more bread and water re-fill which you normally wouldn't have to ask for at a restaurant at this calibre. I also noticed that other ppl at the surrounding
Excellent food.
Good service. Can't go wrong. It is pricey as is most of Napa but worth it.

love Yountville location! Escargo and French onion soup all the way! Of course truffles fries & mussels! Tables are tiny but they are very good at clearing plates out. Mimosa - they make it super strong! Love them They have pastas if you ask the
First, let me say, this is the first review I've left a
First, let me say, this is the first review I've left a restaurant in years. My wife and I have traveled the world for years, so we have had exposure to multiple dining experiences. We decided to share our 40th wedding anniversary at Bouchon Bistro.
Not surpised they lost their Michelin star!
I'm being generous with the 2 stars here because I enjoyed the salad and the chocolate sauce I had with dessert. Sadly, the main course was not at all enjoyable. I don't like to send anything back to the kitchen but, I came very close to sending back
3.5 stars: great food, mediocre service, too crowded.
Problems: 1. Too many tables crowded together. The place was so tightly packed together that when our neighbor went to grab his wallet his handed ended up in my back pocket! Joking aside, we had people within a foot and a half of us on either side.
Great Food. Will Not Go Back
Great Food. Will not go back. For some context, my wife and I have been to Joel Robuchon, Guy Savoy and Le Cinq in Paris multiple times plus Per Se and other great restaurants in New York in addition to Surf Club in Miami. We were so excited to
Celebratory luncheon
Amazing experience. Ambience is the small restaurant was unique. Service was fantastic. We started with escargot, which was done to perfection. I had the lamb and my husband had the steak frites. Both were delicious. We topped off our meal with
Atmosphere: you felt like you were actually in France in a Bistro. Service: good. Food: good.
This was my second time here. I had Thursday 7:45 PM dinner reservations for 2. Upon arrival, we were greeted and seated. Nothing has changed, tables still jammed together. Besides that, I still love the feel and look of this restaurant. Complementar
Not what it used to be, sadly.
It used to be our go to spot, loved the food offered for breakfast, no longer. Not only do they not serve breakfast at 10am now, the other choices are just too far out there for morning fare. So very disappointed in this place, the food is still go
Exceptional
I want to say ‘You forget how great this place is’ but you don’t forget because it’s so exceptional. Browse the photos to get an idea of what you’d like to order, it’s hard to go wrong. It felt like we were seated at the best table in t
Had their special of the day from the blackboard: Gnudi
Had their special of the day from the blackboard: Gnudi with shaved truffles, ($70). The ceremony of the truffle VIPA arriving in a red box with a humidity gauge on it's side, escorted by 2 servers, was humorous. But at least they didn't get stingy
the lobster should always be the best one.
the oyster are not recommend anymore. It is fresh though but too salty for me( personally. It is not necessary to get a platinum just order half lobster depends on how many people. For appetizer I would recommend the devil egg and the smoked salmon.
the food was very good, close to the finest we 3 ever had
the food was very good, close to the finest we 3 ever had but not quite a perfecto 10. the salade d'endives was nice and we splurged on the roti d' entrecote ribeye for $185, my sense is that it might've been had at another steak joint for 50% that p
Best experience in Yountville, from beginning to end.
Arrived early, sat at bar, enjoyed a tasty Negroni. Ate everything at lunch, tons of amazing food. Didn't take a lot of pictures in Yountville, because social media people are really ruining the dining experience...subtle pic of my food is one thing,
We had high expectations.
Our service was excellent but the food was just ok. The short rib was my favorite.
I love this bakery.
They have wonderful pastries and bread. I have yet to try a sandwich from them. I love their chai tea as well. They have really good service. It may be a wait depending on the time of day but really worth it.

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Bouchon Bistro Yountville. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Bouchon Bistro Yountville at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Bouchon Bistro Yountville page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* MaternalRecord73, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at Bouchon Bistro Yountville to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If MaternalRecord73 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Bouchon Bistro Yountville!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
