Café Boulud Toronto Reviews
Good restaurant
I had a dinner meeting here for work. The food and service were both very good. I'd highly recommend it - especially if you are staying in the area.
Food did not live up to reputation
Having heard about its prestigious reputation, we tried Café Boulud for our anniversary. The décor is tastefully luxurious and the service was friendly, professional and very timely throughout. But we came mainly for the food. My wife’s pea soup and halibut were both excellent, she told me and the rhubarb dessert we each had was superb, as was the bread accompaniment to the meal. But my food was disappointing. I started with the steamed BC salmon with white asparagus. The salmon was totally tasteless (try Atlantic salmon?) and the miniscule slivers of asparagus seemed to be raw and similarly tasteless. The presentation was very pretty, but the only things that had any taste were the sauce and the tiny pea pods. I mark this one down as a dismal failure. Then I had the escalope Viennoise which was okay, but only just okay. It was as tough as nails and I should have asked for a sharper knife to deal with it. It was tasty, but I have had better escalopes off street stalls in Austria and Germany and in our local diner here in Toronto. So, apart from the bread and the dessert, I was very disappointed in the food. They gave us a nice serving of delicious madeleines for our anniversary as well.
Lovely French restaurant in Four Seasons Yorkville
We enjoy going to this restaurant with our big group of friends. The reservation staff is very friendly and the service and ambiance are excellent. We went for a fixed price brunch on a Saturday. There is a variety of appetizers, main dishes and a desert to follow. It is all very filling. I enjoyed my strawberry parfait, Wagyu burger and melting chocolate cake. The madeleines are to die for.

Nice restaurant
Nice restaurant at the Four Seasons. The food is excellent and the wait staff is extremely professional. Such a fine dining experience.
Poor service and attitude to a regular.
Had a business lunch there today (Fri Jan 19) to celebrate a colleagues retirement. Showed up at 12:26pm for a 12:30 lunch. The two hostesses said we would have to wait to be seated because we were early. I asked if we could just go to the table and was told no. The restaurant was over half empty. We got to the table and the server was terrible. He seemed to not be interested in us because we didn't want wine. Took him a long time to come for our order. He was never there to get more water. I had to ask other serves to get our sparkling water bottle to refill our glasses. Had to ask for bread, which always comes to the table normally. We waited a long time between courses. After mains, our server kept passing us, but would not even look over at us. We finally had to ask another server for coffees. I had to finally ask another server for the bill. Just brutal service. I have been to the restaurant over 100 times in the last 5 years. I supported them through covid and was just treated badly. I usually see 2 or 3 regular waiters that know me, but they seem to all be gone? I don't recommend the restaurant. The service and food is going downhill. Sad to say I don't think I will book it anymore. It's a real shame that they are just trying to live off a name and are clearly not giving service anymore. I would pass on them.
Amazing French restaurant
Really good French restaurant. Got the 3 course pre fixe. Really enjoyed the beef tartare and duck confit.
Lovely French restaurant in Four Seasons Yorkville
We went with a group of friends to this lovely restaurant in downtown Yorkville. The ambiance was lovely and we were taken to our table immediately. We had already spoken to the management regarding wanting to be there over three hours so the server was very cognizant and did not rush us at all. The food was served hot and it was tasty. I did think my special was overpriced the Dover sole but overall I enjoyed eating here as a special treat.
Tasty, beautiful, and very high-end
Woow, very nice French restaurant. The food was amazing, each course was very delicious. The way they served the food was very beautiful. The plates and everything was authentic and beautiful. The service was awesome, very high-end. We made a surprise birthday party for a friend and it was a blast. High recommend. The building itself is very nice and everything is already decorated for Christmas.
Where the Schickeria goes to eat downmarket?
Wanted to enjoy an amazing bfst experience in the luxury of Four Season Toronto. Presentation was very plainly awful. Waiters friendly. The pistachio croissant was so inedible my wife had to admonish me not to spit it out. It was literally disgusting. My cappuccino was as fine but then refilled cheap diner style with drip coffee. What is Four Season thinking? This kind of reminds me of Air Canada’s Hawksworth food. Celebrity chef with outlandishly poor execution.
Good for a one time stop over. Overpriced.
It's ok for a hotel stop over but on a pricey side. Recommend roasted chicken for 2 at 98.00 and skip the tartare as it was tasteless. Not a place that I will frequent a lot. Good wine selection and a 110.00 Willamette valley choices. Skip the rest as it's overpriced and not worth my attention. Cheers!
Second floor gem
Hard to believe this flagship gem is only a 4 out of 5. We had a 5 star experience. Was it expensive? Yes, but was it awesome? Hard yes. Service was impeccable, wine service was spot on. Mains were v solid and the subtle, elegant approach to dinner was greatly appreciated.
Get the giguere chicken
Cafe Boulud’s dinner was delicious and the ambiance was so nice. Service was good as well. For starter we had the lobster | bagna cauda which was amazing. I believe it’s available to be a larger portion should you want it as a main. We also had the BC spot prawn | citrus which was fresh and a nice way to start the meal. They also were generous with the bread basket. My main meal was the giguère chicken | truffle. Wow. It was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. The skin was light and crispy, and the meat soft and cooked perfectly. The entire dish was so balanced. It came with some wild rice and hen of the woods mushroom and it all combined was just amazing. Highly recommend. I have a feeling that if their chicken dish is great, their duck is as well (something to try for next time). The only hiccup was that one of the other people (not our server) giving our food led with “do you want some salt and pepper” before we even had a bite. I felt that gives customers an unconscious expectation that the food they will get is bland when in actuality Cafe Boulud had some of the best food my family has ever eaten so I felt that that was entirely unnecessary at the beginning of the meal. I know they are doing their best to anticipate our needs, but when it comes to food, I think it is best to try it out in respect to the people who prepared it before even grabbing for the salt and pepper. Execution of this could’ve been better. For dessert we had the vanilla | blackberry suggested by our server Aireen. It was so yummy and it was fun when they give it to the table as they pour some warm chocolate over the chocolate dome. They were also so kind to give us some warm madeleines as a treat and it blew our expectations away; we thought a madeleine would be mediocre at best but this was warm, fluffy, and tasty. We also had the chocolate | coffee which was so scrumptious and a delectable way to end the meal.

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Café Boulud Toronto at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Café Boulud Toronto page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Café Boulud Toronto to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Café Boulud Toronto!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
