About this place
Some diners single out the venison hamburg steak as a memorable dish; another visitor at lunch says it was satisfyingly meaty and left them full. The menu at Bistro La Boucle also offers venison pâté and venison steak, making it possible to try game as a small plate or make meat the centrepiece of a meal.
One diner describes the venison pâté de campagne as distinctly gamey but not overpowering. Starting with pâté before moving on to the venison hamburg steak or steak could make for a satisfying progression. A visitor also notes that the owner cooks with deer and wild boar he has hunted himself, and says they enjoyed hearing about the ingredients as they ate.
Beyond game, the menu includes beef tendon and beef cheek braised in red wine, roasted duck breast, duck confit and braised lamb. For a meal that goes beyond meat, dishes such as amberjack tartare, soupe de poisson and penne with blue cheese sauce bring fish and pasta to the table, too.
Wine is available, offering the chance to choose a glass to go with dishes such as venison or duck. One dinner guest recalls enjoying a wine recommended to match the food, and especially liked the carrot mousse topped with caviar served at the end of the meal.
One account of lunch describes a course with an appetiser, soup, main, dessert and coffee. Another visitor mentions a small shrimp salad, venison pâté, seafood soup, a meat dish and an assortment of desserts. The restaurant suits a leisurely lunch course as well as an evening of game and wine.
A visitor notes that the owner handles both cooking and service alone. If you would like to take your time over dinner, consider making a reservation.
