I had the best time! La Grand Boucherie has such a beautiful ambiance. Feels very chic when you enter. The bar is stunning. The staff was very friendly, bathrooms very clean. For starters my friend & I shared the ceaser salad. We each had a glass of Sancerre, perfect compliment to our meal. I ordered the Filet Mignon au poivre - it was perfection! I tried my friend’s Bavette au diane which was also fantastic. We shared a side of haricots vert- they were great as well. For dessert we shared profiteroles & the chocolate caramel tart. A great way to end our meal! Sooo good! The chocolate was not too sweet & not too bitter- it was practically perfect with every bite! The service was fantastic. The perfect last supper before my travels… Can’t wait to come back!

This was our second time to eat at Quality Italian. We are from Texas and will come back every time we are in the city. Our waitress Natasha was incredible! She went over the whole menu giving her recommendations. She was attentive the entire meal and went above and beyond for us. The food was a 10 out of 10! We had the oysters, Caesar salad (the best one I’ve ever had), filet au Chianti-poivre (the sauce on this is amazing), black truffle cacio e Pepe, pistachio gelato, and Natasha gave us the burnt marshmallow gelato because she said we just had to try it. She was right it was delicious! We left happy and full! 5 stars for Quality Italian!!

Dining at Quality Meats is always a treat, but this particular evening was special, yet bittersweet. We had given them a heads-up and they still went above and beyond—not with grand gestures, but with a level of attentiveness and care that made all the difference. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, warm without being overbearing. The staff gave us the space to enjoy our meal in a way that felt personal, yet effortlessly seamless. And then, of course, there’s the food. The tomahawk was steak cooked to perfection and the creamed corn crème brûlée was rich and satisfying. It’s the kind of meal that reminds you why certain restaurants become institutions. What stood out most, though, wasn’t just the quality of the food but the quality of the experience. On a night when we needed a little extra grace, Quality Meats delivered in ways they may not even realize. For that, I’m truly grateful. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a meal that’s as refined as it is comforting, in a space that understands the true meaning of hospitality.

Everything was top notch. It was our anniversary date, we loved every bit of it

Exceeded our expectations. We chose to experience this iconic restaurant with our son to celebrate a special occasion, but the experience was more than anticipated. Service was EXCEPTIONAL, the food was delicious, perfectly executed and served with excellent timing. Manager checks table side, friendly staff, beautiful ambiance, STILL a fantastic restaurant. Definitely worth its pedigree of long term respect. Not just a tourist attraction…definitely worth a visit for anyone wanting a special dining experience in a lovely setting.
