Food tasted unpleasant & the interior looked outdated. Service was okay but would not recommend this spot unfortunately.

La version française à la suite de ce commentaire.
Amazing decor & set up, chairs: sooo comfortable, you don't want to leave!
The service: one of the best!! You lift an eye & someone comes to see you. We were four, Sunday brunch in December 2025, for an anniversary. They even brought a special treat for the special guest!
Food: from automn salad, fish filet with mullet caviar ( so good! ), lamb from the silver caddy ( old school, but works!), & dessert ( pain perdu ) . Everything was succulent! Atmosphere is classy without being too fancy. Sitting in the verrière is the best spot: it is grand!
L'endroit est magnifique! Les tables & chaises sont grandes & tellement confortables! Le service est excellent, très attentif. C'était un brunch du dimanche, pour un anniversaire. La fêtée a même eu droit à des petites madeleines encore tièdes ( wow!)
La bouffe: les salades, filet de poisson & son caviar de mulet ( délicieux!), rôti d'agneau servi sur plateau d'argent ( on se sent spécial!) & dessert ( pain perdu ). Tout était absolument délicieux!
Les tables dans la verrière sont le meilleur choix, d'une grandeur exceptionnelle!

The food was exquisite, the ambiance was welcoming & the service provided was simply impeccable. I am not easily swayed but I have to say, it was remarquable how everyone was courteous, efficient, sympathetic & good natured.

It elevated the whole experience. For reference I went today (Saturday) for lunch. Loved my experience & would recommend without any hesitation.

Je tiens simplement à souligner ma grande déception. Nous sommes entrés en contact avec le restaurant pour réserver la verrière pour un événement privé le 2 octobre prochain soit plus de 10 mois avant. Le retour a été laconique & j'ai du insisté & relancer. On m'a précisé que le cout serait'tres important' & que j'aurais un retour sous peu apres une discussion avec le gérant. Je n'ai jamais eu de retour & nous sommes bientot plus de 3 semaines plus tard. Je trouve que d'avoir déterminé sans raison valable que nous n'étions pas en capacité de payer cette privatisation combiné avec l'absence du retour promis ne reflète pas la hauteur du service & de la réputation du Boulud. Nous organiserons donc notre événement privé ailleurs ou il veut etre accueilli.

Un brunch du jours de l'an très très désappointant. Une entrée à partager sans goût, les oeufs bénédictine & l'agneau braisé très ordinaires & également sans goût. Un coût très élevé pour la qualité de nourriture que nous avons eu. À chaque année la qualité diminue. À ce questionner pour 2026!!!!!

We had the Caroteno drink here last night, among a few others, & it was by far the best cocktail on the menu! It was even better than the house Cosmo! Loved it.

Nous nous sommes régalés lors de notre souper à la Maison Boulud. Déjà, la décoration de Noel dans l'hôtel était absolument magique. Notre serveur Julien était très professionnel & amical à la fois, nous l'avons beaucoup apprécié.
Nous avons commandé nos plats à la carte & tous les plats étaient délicieux, les goûts maitrisés. Le vin nous a également bien été conseillé. Nous étions assis du côté jardin (tout en étant au chaud à l'intérieur) & c'était une très belle salle. Merci encore pour l'accueil & la belle soirée !

Lovely Christmas dinner at Maison Boulour. Warm, elegant atmosphere without feeling stiff, attentive service all evening, & the food was genuinely excellent. Seasonal dishes done really well, beautifully presented, & everything felt thoughtful rather than overdone. A calm, special place to spend Christmas, would happily go back.
