If you're trying to find a good French restaurant in a prime location in London this is the right place. I was there last night with friends and loved the atmosphere. The choice of wines is really good - it's a shame I can't drink it at the moment. The menu selection is also quite good with key french dishes that will please different tastes - good variety of meats and nice fish options as well. I went for the cod which was creamy and fabulous, whereas my other half went for the lamb which was cooked perfectly and really soft! I couldn't resist the desserts and went for one of my favourites, the fondant au chocolat which just by the smell and look was divine. He's crazy about citron tart and that's precisely what he ordered. Again the smell.... yummy!!! Perfect place for a relaxing dinner. Would definitely be back
Lovely restaurant! Minus the general manager.... Le Boudin Blanc is a lovely restaurant, been there many times and I've always enjoyed myself and the meal even more so. The starters, mains and deserts are stunningly delicious and the atmosphere is lovely.
However one thing ruined the evening - After one of the people in our party received her coat after the meal it was missing an (expensive) fur cuff. Immediately, the general manager was defensive and rude (despite us being very calm to begin with), refusing to go double check if it dropped on the floor while retrieving it. His rudeness just escalated, just because he refused to believe he may have dropped it. The problem was no longer about the lost piece of clothing, which had he apologized for or simply said we could call back in the morning and settle the problem, we would have left feeling somewhat sad but still have good feelings towards the restaurant. However his attitude towards us was atrocious, and quite frankly uncalled for.
So much for the customer is always right? Christophe Capron, is my only complaint about this lovely restaurant. Sadly, I don't see us ever returning until he sincerely apologises or (preferably) gets sacked/demoted.
So if you don't mind being talked down to, then great! The food is superb! Customer service once you've paid the hefty bill however... not so great.
Incroyable. Just had the best french dinner ever. The food was amazing, every thing was so full of flavor and left me wanting more of everything. The best word to sum up this restaurant is "authentic". The atmosphere was very french, the wait staff were all french with excellent english skills and the food was superb and authentic.
The French Onion soup was perfect and even though it was a large portion I could have had so much more. The best part of the whole meal would have to the the Fondant! If you love chocolate as much as I do then this is what you MUST order. They make it fresh for each order and when it comes out the warm melted chocolate is to die for.
This authentic french restaurants provides a fantastic alternative to the larger more commercialized restaurants that are becoming so common.
If your are anywhere in London and have yet to visit this place then I would strongly suggest going as soon as possible. You may want to make a reservation a little bit ahead of time, it may be a small off the beaten path restaurant but it is by no mean lacking cliental.
