Le Bouillon

This restaurant is amazing!! I can not recommend it more. We have been here a few times, and each time we got the tasting menu which was well thought out and decently priced!Right as we walked in the offered to take our coats and led us to our table. They staff was very attentive, even offering me a purse hanger. They have an extensive wine list, so we began our meal with a bottle of riesling which was crisp and refreshing. We went there for valentines day and did the chef's menu. I am gluten free and they were very accommodating with altering the dishes slightly. I started with the smoked white fish on a delicious creamy dill spread. Then had the tuna for my main which was FANTASTIC and finished with a chocolate mouse- the perfect dinner. The ambiance is moody and I loved how the tables were spaced to feel like you had your own little private dining area. There is also so much fun art on the walls to look at. This paired with the white bricks made it the perfect place to enjoy good company, good drinks, and AMAZING food. Highly recommend!

This meal was worth it! And dining in a cute, historic building always sets the vibe right away. We started with drinks, which I loved so much that I forgot about pictures. I had the punch, which was sweet but not so much so that it hurt my stomach.For appetizers, we got French onion soup, clams and the tomato tonato. The French option soup was a burst of flavor with the perfect amount of melted gruyere on top. Word on the street is they use veil broth which would explain the rich flavor! The clams were tossed with a broth, beans and kale. I'm not a huge fan of any of those ingredients alone, but together, they paired so well. The tomato dish was juicy and fresh, impressive at this time of year that they got that quality of produce.For entrees, my husband and I split the chicken and burger. We usually shy away from chicken because it can be boring, but this dish was far from it. It was so juicy and well cooked. It was paired with beautiful mushrooms and a crispy-ish potato dumpling that balanced the chicken nicely. The burger... wow. House made and high quality, it was easily of the best patties I've had in this city. The shoestring fries they served with it were also perfectly cooked and tasted good even without the aioli that came with it.We also got a bottle of wine with our meal. The selection they had was extensive and decently priced.Throughout the experience, our server was kind, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. We will definitely return!

I went here for Valentine's Day and it was the perfect vibe for that. It's definitely on my list now for a nicer date setting. Our waiter was awesome. He gave us recommendations and have really accurate descriptions of what we ordered. The Filet Mignon Tartare was really good it was my first time having a beef tartare so I was a little skeptical, but I really liked it. I wasn't 100% sold on the creamy texture but that's a me issue. I got the Plum Creek Farm Chicken which was the best chicken I've ever had hands down. It was massive so I didn't even get through half of it but it was delicious. I was not a huge fan of the veggies. I can't really describe the taste, I would say maybe a little vinegary which wasn't my favorite. My boyfriend got the Lamb Schnitzel and really liked it. He said he didn't like the veggies on top on their own but combined with everything else he loved it. I would definitely come again.

My partner and I have been doing this thing where we try French restaurants and the duck everywhere we go, and this week I realized we hadn't given Omaha a chance. I had heard of this spot from a colleague and decided to give it a try. Walking in, there was only 2 other diners but it was a Monday evening so I set my skepticism aside. My first glance at the menu left me a bit disappointed. The menu I had seen online had several items that intrigued me but what I was seeing in person was quite different. I was disappointed. I considered leaving but decided to give it a shot.Now I would compare this dining experience to a musical score. This particular composure started off with a steady build. The pre-dinner drinks - the rooibos old fashioned for me, and the chamo Collins (with gin) for the lady were pretty decent. Then the appetizers upped the excitement and the tempo. We got the tartare + frites. While this was good, the beef was a bit too chunky for me. At this point, we should be bursting with excitement for the crescendo that is the main course. Unfortunately, this was not the case. The duck frites fell flat. The skin did have a nice crisp to it though. The saving grace of the whole thing was desert. The basque cheesecake which was brûléed with what I assume was a custard brought us right back to a peak.Service, otherwise, was great! We love to share meals and they accommodated us very easily. The hostess was very friendly and the food came out well-spaced out and timed.

My husband surprised me with a visit to Le Bouillon for my birthday, and it was pretty dang nice, if a little bit stuffy/quiet for the type of food/vibe I usually gravitate toward. The ambiance is arty with a large mosaic sculpture being the focal point of the space. It definitely feels upscale and airy, so it did fit for the romantic atmosphere my husband was wanting.Don't get me wrong on the food; everything was expertly cooked and plated beautifully. It just wasn't so much my style, but I did come to it with an open mind and enjoyed a lot of the items.We started with the Tartine and Lox. It came as a large cracker, with a creamy spread as the base and flowery little strips of lox with pickled veggies. It looked gorgeous and tasted very flavorful with the components all working together perfectly. For my entree, I chose the Hanger Steak with Root Vegetables and added a crab cake on top. I absolutely loved the steak and the crab cake, which were both seasoned to perfection and sitting in a heavenly tarragon cream sauce. But the root vegetables I could have done without. I usually like earthy flavored things, but these were a little too heavy on that, in addition to being the largest component of the dish. My husband got the Duck Breast, which came with a bed of carrots, beans, and duck fat. It was so tasty and each piece worked together on the plate so well. I definitely recommend this over the dish I got.We got two desserts, and both were decadently divine:-Olive Oil Cake: This was on special when we were there and our waitress said it was definitely not as sweet as other desserts, but if you like more "muted" sweetness, like cornbread, you might like it. She was absolutely correct - it was almost exactly like corn bread, but without a corn flavor. More just a buttery bread flavor, but topped with a delicious blueberry compote and homemade whipped cream. -Chocolate Tart: Our second dessert was definitely more desserty - a big hunk of chocolate mousse with cherries and cherry drizzle on top. You can't go wrong with anything chocolate and cherry, and this was the perfect example of that. Not too much sweetness in the chocolate mousse, so the extra sweet cherry components could really sing.Overall, I think Le Bouillon has a lot of great things to choose from, but you definitely have to be in the right mood to dine there!

had a wonderful dinner as always! Love the punch and the new menu. had the squash soup and the cod my friend had the French onion soup and the roast chicken. All of our meals were beautiful and delicious.

Four stars for Le Bouillon. Solid food and ambience, ok service and attention to detail. I went with a small group, and on the whole, everyone enjoyed their dishes. The boeuf bourguignon was a favorite, and for good reason... The beef was absolutely fall-apart tender with great flavor. The veg was all well-seasoned and fresh. A tasty rendition. The fillet Wellington was also quite nice. Perfectly cooked. The filet is definitely the star of the plate. I understand not having an entire bowl of broccoli on the side, but the three tiny sprigs on the plate looked a little out of proportion. It was cooked perfectly, I wanted more! The potatoes were a little on the dry side, not creamy. I was a little disappointed by the meat and cheese board. The bread wasn't my favorite; I thought it was kind of bland, and the bottom was actually quite burnt, so I'm surprised they served it. The board looked a little haphazard and was a somewhat different from what the server said was going to be featured.I loved the interior and ambience, the greenery and twinkle lights for the holiday season. They've got a neat space. Our service was just OK. Our server seemed a little distracted, like he wasn't giving us his full attention.

The place is located in one of the most charming areas in Omaha in a fantastic venue. Unfortunately the server was terrible. He actually rolled his eyes at my friend's request. Difficult to recover from his rudeness which clouded the experience and food. I won't go back.

So my wife and I eat here! It was nothing less than amazing. Great experience. Wine was on point. Food was fantastic. Ambiance was super cool. Classic simple Black and Gray. Super nice. Let's get into the service, first our waiter was the best. Picked an amazing wine to pair with the meal, Was super on the wine poor and great at checking on us. But it was not super over done! Again classy. If you go please asked for another he was the best. A++++++++++++. For Anthony alone.Restrooms were super clean. Hand soap smelled out of this world.... Refreshing to eat at a place like this don't miss out on the meat and cheese plate...

Amazing food! Best chicken I have had in my entire life! Beef taretare was also wonderful. Will be returning!
