André's Bouchée Review

The food here presents an innovative bistro-style take on local ingredients. A Monterey Bay sea scallop reduction adorns pan-seared veal tenderloin; grilled rib-eye steaks are topped with a shallot-cabernet sauvignon sauce. With its copper wine bar, the dining room feels more urban than most of Carmel; perhaps that's why this is the "cool" place in town to dine. The stellar wine list sources the selection at the in-house wine shop.

    Good food but overpriced

    We enjoyed our food and didn't find the portions too small as others have mentioned. Service was fine, too. Prices were much higher than what I've experienced at equivalent restaurants and the wine list had huge mark-ups. One wine on the list at $190 was only $80 at Passionfish (same vintage, too). We won't be going back to Bouchee.
