Le Bouchon

Wicker Park, Bucktown & Ukrainian Village


A Bucktown mainstay for over 25 years, this small bistro has a warm, French-cafe atmosphere where conversation buzzes over clinking wineglasses. The menu offers a full run of Gallic classics: escargots with garlic and parsley butter, a seafood-stuffed bouillabaisse, sirloin steak frites, duck cassoulet, salad Niçoise with tuna and quail egg, and cheese-topped French onion soup. Bon appétit!
