    Our first time at Cafe Boulud and we enjoyed a delightful breakfast! The restaurant and hotel are absolutely beautiful. The service was fantastic and attentive - given we were there on Christmas morning we really appreciated the servers and hosts giving the impression there was no place they'd rather be. The food is delicious - everything was done really well. It will definitely be on our list of possibilities for future special occasions

    Here’s a clearer and more concise version: The meal was delightful from start to finish. We began with the escargot and pain au lait—both featuring incredible breads. The pain au lait was melt-in-your-mouth, while the escargot and its sauce were exceptional. For mains, we had the boeuf bourguignon and tournedos rossini. Both were delicious, but the tournedos rossini was the standout. The flavors were extraordinary, with foie gras on top, a delicate brioche underneath, and a perfectly cooked filet mignon in the center. Our server, who was of French origin, was attentive, warm, and lovely, adding a really nice experience. The ambience was gorgeous, and everything about the evening was lovely. A truly memorable experience! We didn’t go to the speakeasy afterwards because we were too full and had a snowy drive ahead of us, but look forward to trying it in the future!

    We came with our family just before Christmas during the Christmas Market time. The restaurant was busy but not overcrowded. we were welcomed quickly and shown to our table. We were a large group -7- but our table had plenty of space and was not cramped. Our food arrived quickly and all of us enjoyed our food. My son-in-law loved the Beef Tartare and the Oysters. He had some concerns about recent evidence of tainted oysters in other locations but our waitress was able to explain which types of oysters had been gained and to reassure that none of those oysters were served at Cluny. The Black Cod en-Papilotte was also described as delicious -spicy but not too much, interesting. Two of young men had Flat Iron steaks and pronounced them perfectl! Cluny felt like a special place to dine and they did not disappoint . A very enjoyable meal in a lovely setting.
