Boulud became the chef, consulting chef and co-partner. The two restaurants were closed on 13 March 2011, two years after opening DBGB Kitchen & Bar, a Pan-European brasserie, in New York City. In 2009, Boulud also announced that he was looking to start his next venture in London. Bar Boulud London opened on May 29, 2010 inside the Mandarin Oriental Hotel on Knightsbridge, becoming the first Boulud's restaurant in Europe. Daniel Boulud Brasserie closed on 4 July 2010, when Wynn chose not to renew the contract between Boulud & The Resort (see Wynn Las Vegas for more). In 2013, it was confirmed that the restaurant would re-open at The Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas in Spring of 2014.  2011 saw many new Bolud openings, including a db Bistro Moderne at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore, a Maison Boulud in Ritz-Carlton Montreal, as well as Boulud Sud next to Bar Boulud, and Épicerie Boulud, a market/deli. In the following year, d|bar opened in the Four Seasons Hotel Toronto, while Bar Boulud Boston opened on 16 September 2014 inside the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Boston. A third location of Epicerie Boulud then opened in the Oculus World Trade Center in November 2016. Around 2018, Bouloud collaborated with a group of MIT entrepreneurs to create Spyce Kitchen, a robotic restaurant in Boston. He was responsible for the menu while the founders came up with the technology. The restaurant serves bowl-based meals using healthy ingredients like grains, beans, and kale. Both Daniel Boulud and his restaurants have received a number of awards. "Daniel" has been rated one of the top ten restaurants in the world by the "International Herald Tribune," received "Gourmet"'s Top Table Award, a four-star rating from "The New York Times", Wine Spectator's Grand Award, and New York City's top ratings for cuisine, service and decor in the "Zagat" Survey. The flagship New York City restaurant was awarded three Michelin stars in the 2010 Michelin, the book's highest rating. As of August 28, 2012, he had 4 Michelin Stars in total and in January 2013, Daniel NYC was inducted into Culinary Hall of Fame. The restaurant, however, lost its third Michelin star in 2015 for "a lack of consistency". Boulud himself has been named Chef of the Year by "Bon Appétit", and received the James Beard Award for Best Chef of New York City in 1992 while Executive Chef at "Le Cirque".
