    I have had many little squabbles in the past over restaurant bills. Here I was charged for sixteen oysters, while I ordered eight, initially got served 4 and eventually got nine. Got into a little argument about this and the owner asked me to leave. Serving great food is no excuse for arrogance.

    We visited Bouchon D'en Face with our staff party and had our menus all sorted our. Great job on handling such a massive group so well. I enjoyed my stay (I'm sure we all did) and the food we got served. I had the steak tartare and the codfish as the fish of the day. I hope to visit the restaurant again in my own time with my partner.

    Awesome dining, staff was amazing and all the food was perfect. I went with my wife and 2 teenagers and we all left super happy. Don't mind is not next to the river and have the nice views, is totally worth going to this place!

    If you're looking for a cozy and delicious place to eat in Wyck, you should check out this french restaurant we tried last week. We had the three courses menu and it was amazing. The Pate de Faisan was especially tasty and rich. They also have a great wine selection and the service was friendly and attentive. We really enjoyed our meal and we'll definitely come back soon.

    I am currently visiting Maastricht from Den Haag and have just had the 5-course Christmas Day menu at Bouchon d’en Face. It was such a lovely experience and it was nicely decorated for Christmas, with Christmas music playing. I had the pescatarian option, as I do not eat meat and the chef did a fabulous job with making these changes for me. All 5 courses were so tasty and the wine and champagne were great too. I also wanted to say a big ‘thank you’ to the staff; I was dining alone, and they all made me feel comfortable and were attentive to me. I will definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Maastricht.

    Love this place. The food is outstanding, staff was friendly and balanced between casual and professional. Might be a reason to come again to Maastricht.

    Very cute place with great service! Drinks and food are super tasty, I loved the foie gras, bavette and the grand marnier crème brûlée.

    Bouchon D’en Face has released its spring menu. It is sublime - with all the weight and meaning that brings: Sublime. If you live in Maastricht, go with all haste and taste this amazing food, matched with exceptional wines, and presented with an authenticity and joy that makes the whole experience pure delight. If you don’t live in Maastricht - go with the same haste - this is the real thing!

    Bistro-style restaurant in the center of Maastricht with Lyon vibes (hence the name "bouchon"). We started with oysters, beef tartare and escargots in butter, all good tastes. Next, we both had bavette which was very tender and tasty. We then shared a cheese platter (Touraine goat, morbier, époisses and bleu d'Auvergne ; one of the better cheese platters we had in a while) and shared a creme brulee that was very well done. Our food was accompanied with a carafe of marsanne (Yves Guilleron) and a carafe of loup du Ventoux southern côtes-du-rhône, both good wines for their price. All in all a great experience! The only thing would be the service, you don't have a personal waiter which means you need to ask around a lot and you're not paid attention to very carefully, especially when it gets busy. And of course because it tastes so good, it gets busy so be sure to reserve! (About 12 people in small groups were turned away while we ate here).

    Great food, very friendly service, and atmosphere you want to come back to.

    Was refused service when me and my boyfriend had just wanted to pop in for a dessert. It was clear that other people had also just sat down and the restaurant was nowhere near full. They suggested us to go to a different restaurant around the corner, felt a little bit more like they just did not feel like serving us rather than actually not having room.

    The Snails! The service! Such a treasure, this restaurant. Their three course meal was absolutely fabulous and the wine was wonderful. Our waitress was such a gem, loved her. She has wonderful taste. Maxine? I'm not sure. But everything she suggests, I'd go for. Anyhow, truly lovely place.

    Really good dinner with a customer (so official business dinner). You can sit a bit separated with 6-8 people close to the kitchen. The chef was extremely friendly and helped with translation to foreign people. The two waitresses were also nice, although they forgot 2 drink orders...they compensated with a smile. Starter, Main course and desert plus water and wine makes up 50-60€ per person.

    We spent New Year’s Eve with the family at this restaurant for dinner. The service was very well, attentive and friendly throughout the night. The bartender explained and presented the wines very well, and the food courses were all nice, especially the salmon. We found the last course (the lamb) to be too much, and also not of great quality (also cooked medium rare unlike a few of us desired but not an option asked to choose) but everything else was great and we really enjoyed eating there!

    Picked an online offer today to try out this sweet little restaurant. Wasn't sure what to expect besides it was likely to be French cuisine. Our preset 3 course diner allowed us to pick from 3 dishes of the menu each course. The starters, carpaccio and garlic scampi's, were tasty but nothing out of the ordinary for a restaurant in Maastricht. Decided to ask for the foie gras as an extra which was served with some compote and roasted brioche and tasted brilliant. The main courses however were amazing. The bavette was prepared to perfection, red on the inside and nearly black on the outside. The meat was so beautiful and delicious. The canard a l'orange had the best orange sauce I had in a long time. Lovely thick and sweet and full of flavour. The duck itself was slow cooked and fell apart by the touch of the fork. Been a long time since I scraped my plate clean but it seemed like such a waste to leave anything behind. Staff was friendly and helpful and the entourage is very pleasant and warm. Great choice if you're looking for some quality french style cooking at a fair price. Just hope that you can get a table.

    Warm, friendly service; a lovely €30 three-course menu; great wine recommendation. A perfect dinner on a city trip to Maastricht. I recommend their aperitif with Provençal Volmer ... really lovely. Do make a booking!

    the prospect was there .. but it failed. we reserved a table for two, first time in this restaurant .. (last also) we opted for a three course menu but we didn't get there ... the appetizer was a Coquilles stuffed with celeriac, spinach and escargort ... but the filling contained the white onion .. which totally killed the delicacy and sweetness of the Coquilles ... the second course my partner bavette which was good. I a fillet of cod with mussels cooked under vacuum ... the mussels were not cleaned well ... the cod unfortunately despite cooking with the mussels was bland and not fresh fish. but the thing that left us terribly was the welcome ... as an aperitif we opted for two glasses of champagne which unfortunately were not accompanied by anything while the tables around us received menus and a platter of salami sliced ​​at the moment by the waiter ..... I wonder it was why we didn't speak Dutch? were we there for the first time? weren't we nice of them? but all this does not authorize him to treat us differently...
