I had been to Boulevard 12 years ago for a special birthday celebration, and wanted my friend to experience this marvelous place. Superb cuisine, knowledgeable and friendly staff. We had the perfect table facing the bat, too. Thank you, Carlos, for being so charming!

Excellent restaurant. From beginning to end top of the line service and out of this world food. Yes a little pricey, but worth every penny. We will definitely return soon.

We returned to Boulevard after a long absence-due to the Pandemic, work and not going out for fine dining. We were very pleased to see that the fine restaurant that we have visited in the past was as great now as then! We were celebrating our wedding anniversary, which they made note of, did the prix fixe menu, had cocktails to start and then wine with dinner. Our server was excellent as well as the rest of the wait staff. We were greeted at the door and all who encountered us on our way to being seating wished us a Happy Anniversary. Our meal was superb-we were given the amuse bouche of the day--special crackers, endive & house made burrata dip. We chose as our starters the lobster bisque & the tallerini with uni & cheese. We both had fish as the mains--Halibut & Sea Bass.. Both were presented with sides and special sauces. Simply exquisite!!! We chose some fine wines that were suggested by our waitress. For desserts we choose the lemon bar/tart and the sticky pudding. Our plates were decorated in a celebratory fashion.. John had a scotch & I had decaf coffee. The meal ended with a small decorated mint & chocolate" Oreo style" star cookie. We will be going back very soon !!!!!!

Terrific thoughtful service. Great variety of options on the menu - hard to choose! Gorgeous updates and restroom. Loved the bread service - small gesture that set the tone.

Boulevard never fails to impress with its delicious food and outstanding service. We chose it for a special occasion, and the experience was truly exceptional. The staff greeted us warmly and even had a thoughtful card to celebrate our event. The seasonal menu was flawless: we started with a perfectly prepared ahi tuna, followed by a tender filet of beef as the main course. For dessert, I opted for the toffee pudding, which was the ideal sweet ending to an unforgettable evening. I’m already looking forward to our next celebration at Boulevard and another impeccable dining experience!

Perfectly lovely in every respect. But not particularly earth shattering. Borderline pedestrian food. Beautiful room. Erratic service. I expected more when the tab was $300 per person.

It would have been helpful to receive advice about parking. We had to park 6 blocks away and got the last place in the lot.

Hello Robert, We're glad you enjoyed your meal with us, and sorry to hear you had difficulty parking. For future reference, we offer partially validated parking at the Rincon Center Garage at 121 Spear Street, just across the street!
