According to recent minutes from a Community Board 7 meeting, French restaurant and steakhouse Boucherie will be opening a location at 44 West 63rd Street, in the base of the Empire Hotel. This was formerly home to Ed’s Chowder House, which closed in early 2018.
Boucherie has three downtown locations, and their motto is “celebrating joie de vivre”, which translates to exuberant enjoyment of life”. The executive chef is Jerome Dihui.

Boucherie has an extensive wine and cocktail menu, plus a handful of signature absinthe cocktails which was created by Anthony Bohlinger.
They also have a “Green Hour” Monday through Fridays from 4 to 7pm, with $11 wines, cocktails and dishes.
Starters include classics like steak tartare, escargot and foie gras.
Facebook reviewers emphasize the quality of Boucherie’s croque monsieur, french onion soup and duck confit.
