Brought my wife here for her birthday dinner, for the second year in a row, and had an amazing meal. Impeccable service. Delicious food. Superb wine list. Lovely old school decor. A San Francisco gem that should not be missed.

Jin was our server for a special birthday celebration. He was wonderful helping us navigate the menu. We ended up with lovely dishes and an incredible meal. The endive salad, hen main, and affogato were delish! My friends loved the pork, the sole and the stout cake. The pirate punch cocktail was so yummy. And Jin’s service was impeccable, even with our rowdy table of friends. We look forward to returning!

We had eaten here several time before Covid. Now, the cost of the food was too much for what you get. We will not be returning again.

Sid, thank you so much for joining us, and for the feedback. We're sorry to hear that your recent experience at Boulevard didn't meet your expectations. In addition to our 3 course menu, we offer a more flexible dining experience with a la carte dining in the bar, lounge, and Chef's counter. We hope you'll give us another chance to impress you in the future, as we would be delighted to host you again. -Anna Molyneux Boulevard Restaurant

Everything about the food, ambiance and service was outstanding. The food presentation as well as the food itself was extra ordinary. The softshell crab was divine. The lasagna was very creative. The service was impeccable.

Overall great experience. Suggested wine pairing for pork chop was great, suggested wine pairing with a fish entree was a miss. Service was excellent and the restaurant ambience is wonderful. Definitely recommend!

We have gone to Boulevard for our anniversary dinner 8 of the 10 years we have been married. We missed 2 years due to Covid. We have, yet, to encounter a bad dining experience. Also, Boulevard is directly across the street from the SF Ferry building. This makes it so easy to get to the restaurant by ferry from the East or North Bay and avoid traffic into SF.

Food was superb as usual. The Pearl Hen entree is a winner. We had a run in with a Som over a wine that was over the hill--clearly oxidized. Another Sommelier took care of us after that situation. She could have at least apologized but she ignored us for the rest of the evening.

David, thank you so much for joining us! We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed the new rendition of the Pearl Hen; with summer just around the corner, we can expect to see more and more seasonal changes. We hope to see you again soon! -The Boulevard Team
