Bouley was a contemporary French restaurant located at 163 Duane Street (between Greenwich Street and Hudson Street), in Tribeca in Manhattan, in New York City.[2][3] The high-profile four-star chef David Bouley was its owner and chef.[1][4] It initially opened in 1987 at 154 Duane Street and was closed in 1996.[5]

It reopened at its second location in October 2008[6] and was there just short of nine years before closing in July 2017.[7] Jackets were required for men, at both lunch and dinner.[1]

[edit]

The menu was modern French, and included dishes such as porcini flan with Dungeness crab and black truffle broth, wild salmon, and organic duckling.[6]

Decor

[edit]

The romantic, candle-lit restaurant had vaulted ceilings brushed with gold leaf, an ancient French fireplace, and Impressionist paintings.[6][8][9][10][11][12] A circular stone staircase led to a cellar for private parties.[6]

Reviews

[edit]

In 2013, Zagats gave it a food rating of 28, and ranked it the best of 111 restaurants in Tribeca, and the 3rd-best restaurant in New York City.[2][13] In 2015, Tripadvisor rated it the best restaurant in the United States.[14]
