Bar Boulud

Editorial Review

Takes wine theme a mite far, with barrel-vaulted ceiling and framed photos of wine stains identified by vineyard. Top list delivers, though, matched by excellent charcuterie. Full brasserie menu shows always-reliable Boulud flair.  West Side intellectual professionals meet after work at long communal bar for white and black blood sausages and Rhone Valley and Burgundy pours. Location begs Lincoln Center spillover, i.e. middle-aged Philharmonic fans and ballet families. Book your table ahead, or expect a wait for sidewalk seats.
