We just returned from a visit to Newport for Christmas. We reserved a romantic table for two at the Restaurant Bouchard on Christmas Eve. It has to be, without a doubt, one of the best dinners we have had in ages! This night they were offering a 3-Course Prix Fixe Dinner at $50 per. Our incredible appetizers were only a... more

We had high expectations, but came away disappointed. Our escargot appetizer preparation was unusual and flavorful, but the bread for soaking up the sauce came late. My guest's overdone duck with coffee grind crust was overwhelmed by the coffee taste; some Epicurious and NY Times recipes will turn out better dishes at home. My re-stuffed lobster was very good, but... more

We were a party of six for dinner on Saturday, September 5, 2009. We have been going to Boucahrd's on Labor Day weekend for over 8 years and we always had excellent food and excellent service. On this visit we had the worst possible service ever. The waiter must have been in another world. He took forever to take our... more

We arrived with high hopes as we knew the inn was close to everything--and the location was certainly convenient. We booked under the "Gourmet Getaway" package which offered a $50 coupon for dining at their restaurant for the two day stay. We were very excited about the food as we wanted something special for our little getaway. We made the... more

Bouchard appears to be run the way small French restaurants (in New York as in Paris) used to be in the 1970s. The staff is well-trained, the head waiters are uniformly charming and knowledgeable, if a bit stiff, and the chef's wife runs the front of the house with skill, charm and and a bit of a steel edge when... more

Lovers of innovation will be the only ones unhappy with a trip to Restaurant Bouchard. We had a delicious, perfectly prepared meal, old standards like lobster bisque, lobster puff pastry, halibut in a butter sauce, veal in a brown sauce, profiteroles and a souffle -- and all of it was incredibly flavorful, delicate, rich without once overdoing it. Our friendly... more

I had dinner at this restaurant during our trip to Newport first week of August. I was there with my mom and a 20 month daughter. Restaurant is about 10 min walk from Commercial Wharf. The place is really old fashioned and has a feel of a french country Inn. Very nice decor. Rose on each table, candles, dimmed lamps.... more

This french restaurant is worth every penny! . The dinner prices are within a fair range...$38 - The most expensive entre was for a lobster dinner. Portions were more than adequate and beautifully presented. The restaurant is within walking distance of Newport 's shopping area . Reservations are important, especially on the weekends. more
