I used to love Cafe Boulud, I love the location and ambience. I came again recently and I think the food went downhill.
Service: Service was great, nothing exceeding expectations. Our sever was attentive and he answered our questions in details.
Food:
For appetizers, we a charcuterie board. This was decent.
For mains, I ordered the duck confit. I was disappointed because it was dry and it lacked in flavor. My friend ordered the steak frites and she said it was alright.
My overall experience at Cafe Boulud was alright. Nothing exceeded expectations. It is a solid restaurant that I will return for cocktails or whenever I am shopping in Yorkville.
