Bouchon is the French word for cork. In the small farming village where the owner, Michel Baudouin, grew up, bouchon also refers to the friendly neighborhood bistro. The bouchons in Michel's hometown were supplied by local farms, and so we continue that tradition here.
His memories of simple, delicious, and comforting dishes shared at home or enjoyed at the local bistros inspired him to recreate that experience here in Asheville.
Thank you for dining with us- and bon appetit, y'all!

    The trout almondine was excellent! I ate far too many pomme frites because they are divine!! The service was excellent- we had a fussy eater in our party who was taken care of in a very gracious manner by our server.

    Tika our server was wonderful. Beef Bourguinon and Steak Frites were fantastic. Comfortable environment and excellent comfort food, especially on the cool, winter evening we were there. Loved it and will be back.

    Food is always great. House wines from the owners vineyard in France. Service was quick, friendly, helpful and efficient. It is always a must for us when we travel to Asheville.

    For the first time, this place did not meet the standards we're used to. This was our last visit.

    For starters, our forearms stuck to the tabletop, as did the menus. Not that they were dirty, but the finish had softened and needs to be completely redone. Food was quite good but once your arms stick, it detracts. Lighting was far too dim - unlike the pictures in their review that show a warmly lit restaurant. Duck was very good. Bourguignon was good as well. French Onion Soup is among the best I’ve had.
