Luc Bistro is a charming haven for classic French comfort food, where you can savor dishes like beef bourguignon and creamy onion soup in a cozy setting.
"In 2010, Rautureau opened a new bistro, Luc, a few doors down from Rover’s — the project, named after his late father, marked a return to the simple French standards of his childhood in Muscadet." - Meg van Huygen
"After 11 years serving popular French fare in Madison Valley, Luc will close permanently on August 28. Chef-owner Thierry Rautureau made the announcement to customers via an email newsletter last Thursday, July 1, with the subject line “Our Final Summer at Luc Bistro,” noting that “due to Covid we could not financially sustain our lease.” The James Beard Award-winning Rautureau — nicknamed “the chef in the hat” due to his ubiquitous fedora — opened Luc in 2010 as a more casual follow-up to his acclaimed fine dining destination Rover’s next door. When Rover’s closed in 2013 after more than 25 years, Luc carried on, drawing in fans for its satisfying takes on classic French bistro fare, such as boeuf bourguignon and duck confit cassoulet, in an approachable, lively environment. Luc also earned praise from some local outlets, like Seattle Met, who wrote that the low-lit dining room “is perpetually packed and fizzy as a sexy cocktail party in full roar; the unofficial Third Place for the well-heeled neighborhoods surrounding the Madison Valley.” Over the next two months, Luc plans to continue serving its longtime favorites as it bids adieu." - Gabe Guarente
