Le Cochon Bourgeois is how you want your French restaurant: slightly romantic, but not cheesy; high-end ingredients, but not pretentious; inventive, but true to its roots.

Indulge in a dozen fresh oysters from Il de Rey or try the grilled wild salmon on a bed of potato-ramp ragout. While dining on one of the three, four, or five-course prixe fixe meals for under 60 Euros, you may be surrounded by a few too many suits with waistlines revealing a habit for degustation, but ignore their heavy breathing and focus on the savory dishes and the delightfully attentive service instead. Each dinner service is accompanied by a live pianist, while executive chef Benjamin Stoeckel might make his rounds around Le Couchon Bourgeois’ snug dining area and greet his way into well-deserved personal praise.
