THE EXPERIENCE
La Grande Boucherie celebrates Joie de Vivre — the pleasure of dining well and lingering longer. Through a Parisian lens, the restaurant flows from weekend brunch and casual weeknight dinners to celebratory evenings and spontaneous cocktails, with an energy that builds into the night. Refined yet lively, it’s a place to gather with friends, celebrate any occasion, and share memorable meals in an atmosphere that feels both vibrant and welcoming.
THE MENU
Our culinary program honors French tradition while embracing the dynamism of Chicago’s dining culture. Rooted in cuisine bourgeoise, the menu balances timeless brasserie classics with refined preparations and generous steakhouse offerings.
Begin with French staples like Escargots, Soupe à l’Oignon, or selections from our Raw Bar, before moving into signature main courses such as Steak Frites, Côte de Bœuf pour Deux, and Filet Mignon au Poivre. Our steak program features premium cuts and dry-aged selections, alongside Les Grands Formats designed for the table — including the impressive Côte de Bœuf pour Deux, carved for sharing.
At lunch, guests can enjoy our Lunch Prix Fixe, a curated multi-course offering designed for both business dining and leisurely midday occasions, alongside à la carte favorites and seasonal specials.
Weekend Brunch brings lively daytime energy to the dining room, pairing French classics with celebratory cocktails and the spirit of indulgence that defines La Grande Boucherie.
THE EASTER MENU
Begin your holiday meal with our bright and refreshing green asparagus. This elegant starter is beautifully prepared with a delicate citron hollandaise, egg mimosa, and fine herbs. For the main course, we invite you to indulge in our tender spring braised lamb. This generous dish is perfectly accompanied by vibrant green peas, rich pommes fondantes, and a fresh mint chiffonnade.
Conclude your Easter celebration with a touch of indulgence by ordering our riz au lait au chocolat. This creamy dark chocolate rice pudding is a spectacular finish, topped with cocoa nibs, shaved dark chocolate, bright orange zest, and a luxurious Valrhona chocolate sauce.
