My friends and I had a phenomenal experience at Steakhouse Bourré Bonne. We were seated promptly and greeted by our server. We ordered specialty cocktails from the cart, and the Oak Smoked Old Fashioned made with Michter's was delicious. For appetizers, we ordered the Lamb Tartare, Lobster Bisque, and a Caesar Salad. The lamb was delicious and the lobster bisque was smooth and creamy. For dinner, two of us ordered the Australian Waygu filets, and the third ordered a bone-in ribeye. The steaks were cooked perfectly medium-rare, and the sides of brussel sprouts and fingerling potatoes were great. We wrapped up our meal with some espressos and were deeply appreciative of the high-quality service we received. 10/10 and we will return!

Tana is a place you have to visit. The ambience is so inviting, the service is phenomenal, and the food is so good. I had five courses and I still wanted more bc everything tasted so good. Thank you Jaime for the experience. Will come back soon.

We love celebrating birthdays at Le Moo. The food and service are always top level but they also have a great birthday discount (depending on your age). Andrew took wonderful care of our needy table even making a special salad for the kids. The kids loved the queso and bread basket. All our steaks were perfectly prepared. Not many steakhouses include a side anymore but Le Moo does and they are not to be missed. Loaded potato, asparagus and grit cakes all exceed expectations. We enjoyed the new small plates like the lobster roll. The chocolate cake was so good as a take home dessert. Highly recommend for any occasion but especially birthdays.

Our server, Adam, was so phenomenal. The meal would not have been remotely as delightful without his presence. Had a fantastic dinner! The highlight was the steak flight with red wine au jus.

We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on one of the two rotating platforms while taking in the magnificent views of downtown! The food was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection, and exceeded our expectations. Cathy was an amazing server who made our experience even more enjoyable. Overall, a wonderful dining experience that we would highly recommend!

    I could go on and on about this place so I will!! This was such a phenomenal experience. Front of house were so kind and warm the second you walk in. We sat at the bar and the staff were very accommodating, always checking on us and gave great recs! Drinks were creative and delicious! The restaurant itself was so beautiful and had such a nice ambiance. My personal favorites were the charred ramp dumplings, tuna tartare and Lumache. We also had the marinated cucumbers, fried rice, pork dumplings and caramelized cabbage in both of which were wonderful and full of flavor. The Ube cheesecake was actually insane and the presentation was immaculate. They definitely provide a full experience rather than just a meal. 1000% will be back!
