Still on top of its game! Service for our table of 4 was attentive but not intrusive. He even asks us with dark clothes if we wanted black napkins, something you almost always have to ask for yourself. The ‘new’ chef still has classics on the menu like the maple grazed porkchop which is done to perfection. Same with the sea bass- perfect crust with flaky perfectly cooked fish. The Dessert (its strawberry season) was the best non- cooked fruit dessert I’ve had in recent memory- different elements in the strawberry theme that meld together. Wine list is 5 stars balanced old world- new world.

As always the very best, in food service ambience. I’ve been saying it for 20 years now, the number one restaurant in San Francisco.

Took my Mom here for her 77th birthday. We both used to frequent this restaurant decades an ago during its heyday at the previous location. It has beautiful ambience, an insane menu, and the perfect service team from first touch at the door. My Mom remarked how “perfect” an experience it was and we can’t wait to return for “fancy dinner night” soon. Thanks to everyone who helped create a wonderful celebration.

We have been frequenting Boulevard off and on over the last 30 years. We used to live in SF and currently have been residing in Hawaii for the last 24 years. We don’t make it to SF that often but when we do Boulevard is a MUST! Not being frivolous it is in my top 5 restaurants I have eaten at worldwide, and I’m a foodie! I look forward to make any excuse to get back to SF just so we can dress up and have an amazing evening at Boulevard. Far from never disappointing it always is out of this world!
