Located at 699 14th Street on the coveted corner of 14th and G Street NW, La Grande Boucherie is situated on the most high-profile street in Washington D.C., just one block away from the White House. The restaurant is built in elegant and ornamental Art Nouveau style, evoking the sense of optimism from the turn of the 20th century. The brasserie’s menu features both classic and modern French dishes, with focus on the meat program, raw bar and extravagant large-format meats, ideal for sharing and celebrating. Mahogany wood and glass partitions divide the gargantuan space to create intimate dining experiences. These pieces are adorned in gilded accents and uniquely curved arches inspired by the 20th-century Art Nouveau movement of Paris. The main dining room highlights a massive curved bar with a metal top imported from Paris, a signature piece of Boucherie.

Took my parents to La Grande Boucherie for the first time and can’t say this enough, our servers were amazing !! Thank YOU to Kelvin and Travis for taking care of us today. They both were so patient and super friendly to us. We felt at home here and thought the food was amazing, especially the desert. We will be coming back because of them. Thanks again, Kelvin & Travis !

My Experience at La Grand Boucherie
A very pleasant evening at La Grand Boucherie in Washington DC. The staff was very friendly and attentive, especially our server Cristian.
The food was excellent. The escargots were perfectly cooked to the "point of suction", with a rich flavor and a soft texture. The filet mignon was cooked to perfection, medium done, with an impressive juiciness and tenderness.
I definitely recommend La Grand Boucherie. And don't hesitate to ask for Cristian to be your server!

Our experience was sensational! Everything from the atmosphere, to the amazing service and the food, just wow. Will definitely be back to visit when we come to town next. Christopher was our server tonight, and he was truly top notch! He was incredible all around & very knowledgeable! The music tonight was lovely, spring vibes! Truly enjoyed the cherry blossom decor as well.

The staff was awful, made us wait 30 minutes beyond our reservation time, if it wasn’t for our waiter Orlando or the chef we would have left! Others came after us with reservations at a later time and got seated before us.

First time at La Grande Boucherie - DC and it won’t be my last! I went during brunch hours. The service was great! Amine was a 10/10 waiter who was kind, quick, and handled my guest and I with care. He did an exceptional job checking up on us and we enjoyed his humor! The food was amazing! I’m not one to get desserts but the crème brûlée looked amazing and tasted so good! It was busy with the cherry blossom events happening today but overall the staff handled the large volume of guest pretty well! The environment was clean and the bathroom was so pretty! Overall a 10/10 experience, I will be dining here again.
