Boujie in Gatineau is a true culinary gem that lives up to its name. Despite initial reservations about dining on the Gatineau side, Boujie's recommendation by a friend intrigued us, and we were pleasantly surprised from the moment we ascended the stairs.
The ambiance at Boujie is simply electrifying, with a design that captivates and a vibe that sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. While there was no live DJ, the curated music playlist added to the allure of the atmosphere. The attentive and knowledgeable waiting staff further enhanced our evening, providing stellar recommendations and exhibiting a mastery of the menu.
The culinary journey at Boujie commenced with appetizers that were nothing short of astonishing, though we would have welcomed the addition of oyster options. However, the dishes we sampled were flawlessly executed and served at the perfect temperature, leaving us eager for more.
The pièce de résistance was the Tomahawk Steak, a culinary masterpiece that showcased the chef's expertise and creativity. Each bite was a testament to the culinary prowess present in every aspect of Boujie's offerings.
The wine list was equally impressive, though our only regret was being unable to fully indulge due to driving constraints. Nevertheless, the selection did not disappoint, and we savored every sip of the bottle we chose.
Our experience at Boujie left us eagerly anticipating our return, with plans to stay and dance the night away. We extend our gratitude to @amycarusoxo for steering us towards this hidden culinary gem in Gatineau. Boujie is undoubtedly a destination worthy of repeat visits and...
Read moreWe booked Bougie for a big event, around 20 people and they were very accommodating and provided us a great private space for our party in the back. They asked the organizer of the party for everyone’s orders a few days in advance so the kitchen would be prepared and that they could bring out the food in the timely manner since there were so many orders. The party started at 7:30pm and we did not get our dinner until 10:20pm!!!! How ridiculous is that. The service was horrible, not once did the server come back to ask if I wanted another drink. My friend had to ask for more of the complimentary bread because we were so hungry! There were two expectant mothers at our party, hungry waiting for food. Some of the food was absolutely unbearable to eat. My husband’s fried rice was extremely salty and disgusting. My bolognese are undercooked. My friends’ gnocchi was so distasteful that they could not eat it more than a couple tries. I absolutely do not recommend that place, unless you are going for the vibes or drinks and apps. (maybe the steaks were better but everyone at the party said they didn’t like the food). The complimentary bread and butter they provided was delicious, along with the beet salad. When we got our bill, I noticed I was charged for an extra glass of wine. Absolutely not great service during the night, but great communication during the planning phase- unfortunately it didn’t follow through on the day of. And not worth the over $100 per...
Read moreI’ll give 1 star because the poor management. We were group of 12 to celebrate my wife’s 40th birthday but at the end all of us were left disappointed. We booked about a week ahead for Saturday night ( busiest night for any restaurant ) and: They didn’t have enough tomahawk steaks. Not enough bread. Not enough coffee cups for our table. Our table was right in front of the window and it was really cold.
When you want to be called high end restaurant ( because the prices are definitely high ) you should be prepared for Saturday night and make sure you have enough supplies. Worst overall the cheap management, after we made our complaints to the waitresses (pretty much every one of us) nobody came to our table other than the waitresses to apologize and say something at least. It’s really sad because the place it’s nice with nice atmosphere and the food in general was good but definitely I won’t go back again after...
