Seriously seriously seriously not impressed. I went to the Bouchon in LA for dineLA and liked it better than this, despite being told numerous times that the Bouchon in Vegas was infinitely better. \n\nTo preface my review - I went with a party of 11, for Brunch on a Sunday, so maybe brunch is just in general less impressive, or maybe a party of 11 is just too much to handle. I don't know.\n\nMy friends waited about an hour to 1.5 hours for a table on Sunday (during a long weekend, so it may not speak for the normal Sunday wait), and we were finally seated around 1pm Friday. The restaurant was still fairly busy, and we were seated in a private dining room.\n\nFirst of all, the service was extremely slow. After our waters were brought, the waiter didn't come back for another 15-20 minutes to take our order. Most of the table ordered the famed Chicken and Waffles, while two people ordered trout (one without capers), and two ordered the omelet (one vegetarian with a side of fruit). I ordered foie gras, which they only had as a cold pate that day, along with my chicken and waffles.\n\nThe bread that was brought was decent, but the jam is delicious! It was probably the highlight of my meal, actually, especially when it topped a butter-smothered slice of bread.\n\nWhen our orders FINALLY arrived, they had somehow confused where everyone was seated, so everyone had to pass their dish down to someone else. I'd accept this at an Olive Garden, but not at a restaurant as esteemed (and as expensive) as Bouchon. Then, they swapped the plates of the two people who had ordered the trout.  Finally, the omelets came... and the vegetarian got the side of fruit with the meat-filled omelet, while my bf got a side of sausages with the vegetarian omelet! Luckily the vegetarian wasn't one to go nuts if she accidentally ate meat, but had the mix-up been for something like a food allergy, it would have been disastrous. \n\nThe pate I got was very disappointing. It was served in a glass jar with a side of crusty bread. When I say crusty, I mean really really, cut yourself biting into it type of crusty. My boyfriend actually sustained a cut from the bread. The pate itself was too salty, had a layer of something that resembled congealed fat over it, and was definitely not a consistent color. \n\nThe chicken and waffles came with a boat of gravy, as well as one of maple syrup. The waffle was AMAZING - it's perfectly crisp and light and everything that a waffle should be. The chicken was decent, but the seasoning was unremarkable and thus nothing to write home about. I ate the chicken dipped in the gravy, which made it a bit more satiating to my taste buds.\n\nThe waiter never came back to ask us how our food was :( \n\nOverall, I expected SO much more from Bouchon. I may be back to give dinner a shot, but I probably am never going to come to Bouchon for brunch again unless I'm dragged kicking and screaming by my friends.
