Got seated at a cramped circular table only fit for some light brunch or coffee.
Dishes were somewhat pricey and not particularly to my taste. And the service was not necessary great. We also got the main course before the appetizer, which doesn’t really make any sense.
Ordered a glass of wine which was served in a cocktail/martini glass??
The oysters were decent, not that I am much of an oyster connoisseur to be able to tell the difference but they tasted as expected. Though sizing was somewhat inconsistent with some noticeably smaller than the others, to the point where I question whether they should be served.
Didn’t get a picture of the pate but it looked and tasted a bit disappointing, I would compared it to spam or cat food. Tasted like a cold homemade turkey burger.
The charcuterie board was also not very impressive, especially for the price. I’ve had better pieces from Costco.
The only acceptable dish was the duck confit, which is quite pricey at over $30+ for a relatively small portion of duck, basically a large drumstick.
Atmosphere was decent, dark and noisy.
The staff was friendly and very knowledgeable. We got quick service at the bar, and the drinks were delicious. I got the Franklin’s Mistress while my friend got the Firepit Chat. My New York Strip was cooked to a beautiful rare/medium rare (they rode the line of undercooked, which I appreciate as you can always asked for it to be cooked a bit longer). The seasoning was perfect, the fries hot and crispy, the aioli light and fresh. For an extra $4, we got the bearnaise sauce, which came in an adorable little sauce pan. My friend got the shrimp cocktail and raved that the house made cocktail sauce is the best they’ve had. I finished my meal with the Moira Rose N/A cocktail, which was sweet but balance and super refreshing. Very cute atmosphere, too. I can’t recommend it highly enough!
The excuse my French drink is really good! Must try. The food propotions could be better. The cheese tray is not my taste at all. Over all good experience. Chocolate tart is divine!
Bringing our food tour here was a highlight of the evening. The staff came out to speak about Royal Boucherie and our food and wine, the ambiance is so quaint and historic, and everyone loved the food and drink. We can't wait to come back again.
I loved 😍 this place. Let's start with our Waitress Sarah. A wonder host, and extremely knowledgeable on the menu, then The Trout was lightly batter, and not over seasoned. The mushroom perfect side. And the bubbly and oysters .
Had my wedding there it was amazing couldn’t think of any better place to host my wedding. Samantha is amazing , professional and great communicator.
An awesome upscale restaurant serving French Cuisine. My wife and I went for a birthday/anniversary celebration and loved the food, drinks and service. This is our first time trying a raw Oyster bar. We loved the recommendation from our waitress and the Oysters were delicious!!
