About this restaurant

The Blvd Restaurant & Lounge is equal parts American and Italian restaurant, cozy eatery and full-fledged sports bar. This restaurant wears its dual heritage proudly, as even The Blvd logo is created by the crossing of the Italian and American flags. Inside are wall to wall TVs on which patrons can watch whatever game is on from wherever they are in the dining room. The Blvd also has several private dining spaces for large parties and private events, along with a separate catering menu for just those occasions. The standard menu has both favorites from Italian cuisine and American cooking. Guests can order a pizza, ravioli, or many other pasta dishes most of which are either steeped in a robust marinara, creamy alfredo or buttery garlic sauce. On the American side, there are naturally several varieties of burgers to be served with house cut fries.

it was wonderful from the booking process to being greeted by Joe at the door. We had many changes in our reservations during the day and the restaurant was very accommodating to our situation. Happy hour at the bar was great and the drinks outstanding including the service. I found the food excellent. However as the evening went on and there were large groups of people (which cannot be helped) the noise level was extremely loud. My suggestion is if you want to go to socialize and/or have conversations to book an early dinner or lunch. This was actually my 2nd time there, 2 guests it was their first time and another comes to the bar regularly. Overall it was a great dining experience and will go back often.

I have been to The Blvd a couple of times and each time the food was superb. Great specials (Seafood Risotto and Stuffed Sole were delish). My only complaint (minor) is that the dessert was not as good as my main meal. Truthfully, I rarely order dessert anywhere but the last time I ordered Warm Apple Struedel (this was my second choice as Tiramisu is my fave but waiter informed us it was still frozen). It was "warmed" in the microwave which actually made it extremely hot and pastry was soggy. The crust should have been flaky. Overall I have enjoyed both experiences with the restaurant and would highly recommend it to anyone. Bon Appetit!!
