Bouchon - Santa Ana

Small but really comfortable indoor and outdoor seating. Outdoor was obviously a covid set, but they did an excellent job, and it feels like it should always be there. Space heater for those who may get a chill. Food was outstanding. Beautifullly prepared, presented, and it was ridiculously delicious!! SALADE LYONNAISE is one of the best I've ever had. Sea Bass was perfect! My wife had the Lobster Pit Pie, which is crazy good and the pecan goat cheese tart, which could be a dessert! Amazing! Service is top-notch!! No bar is my only disappointment, but great wine selection with a wide range of excellent wines that run affordable to pricey. Beer, too. You'll find something! Nearly perfect!

We celebrated my mom’s 60th birthday here. Both the service and the food left nothing else to be desired. Our experience was absolutely incredible, starting with the owners setting up a special table with rose petals and a personalized card, all the way to our server, David, who ensured that we felt as special as can be. And the food…the chef outdid himself!!! We had the scallops trio, the pork belly, and the crab cakes appetizers; for mains we had the duck, the wagyu steak, and wines to pair with each. This is one place we’d definitely return to for the food. But the service is what truly made this a memorable night! Thank you, Bouchon team!

The service from our waiter Dominic was great. Very personable and knowledgeable about the menu. Of course it’s pricy but food was very good. I had the duck which was very rich and flavorful, the thigh was amazing while the breast was a bit chewier than what most chicken eaters would be used to. The creme brûlée was pretty good. But the star for me personally was the 3 way scallops, absolutely delicious. Would recommend bouchon if you’re feeling spendy

The atmosphere was beautiful. The service was excellent. Our waiter went next door to get me a lemonade because they didn't serve it there. So he went above and beyond! However, I really wish I could say the food was great. The garlic potatoes and brussel sprouts were ok but the roasted chicken wasn't very flavorful. But that may be so the customer can add salt themselves, maybe?

We had a late reservation and we sat outside with the newer seating area. It was lit perfectly as well as stocked with plenty of heaters. The staff was incredibly courteous and helpful, very on the ball. We really enjoyed the fish and the short rib, as well as some great local wine. The little gem salad was great as well as the French onion soup. We were too full for dessert, but the menu also looked delicious! We had to make a reservation on Monday to be sat on Saturday so plan ahead! We will definitely be back when we are in the area.
