This place was as good as we'd heard, while also being approachable. We got a reservation not too far in advance, walked in without a tuxedo (lol), and had a wonderful time.

One of the prettiest places to eat in San Francisco or anywhere for that matter especially at Christmas. Lovely dining experience. Dining room is pre fixe but lots of offerings make it a great deal before you add wine/cocktails but it’s a great bar list so splurge! Service is excellent although watch they don’t rush you through your courses. A great place to take friends or visitors in town or for any celebration. The bar and kitchen view seats are great for people watching.

We have been coming to Boulevard since 1996. I have always loved the ambiance, but it is even more inviting at Christmas. The food, menu selection, and service were wonderful. Noting that they are now offering a prix fixe menu only, which was fine for us. I don't believe you can pop in for a small bite - maybe at the bar.

3 stars at best. Fantastic view of the Bay Bridge, if you sit by the window on the Embarcadero. But the food was very hit or miss. The pork chop is fantastic, while the hen was overcooked and bland. The profiteroles were tough and crunchy, maybe a day old. The burrata was fantastic but the crab was fishy tasting. Etc. Overall, unfortunately somewhat disappointing.

Boulevard is always fabulous. We come here every year, for our Birthdays and other special occasions. The food, ambience and service are a 5 star experience. It is our favorite restaurant in San Francisco.

Always delicious, well prepared and presented dishes but portions are too generous. I could not finish the main course even though it was delicious.

Of course, we are always happy to pack leftovers if needed! We'll see you next time.
