    Wonderful experience at Bleu Boheme yet again. This is one of our favorite San Diego restaurants for its fabulous French cuisine, ambience, and wait staff. Week nights in particular are our favorite dining evenings. Our waitress was outstanding and paired our meals so well with a bottle of Loudenne Le Chateau Medoc 2018.

    Good Meal, Good Price Ordered camp feast, a special with crispy shrimp & sirloin steak. It included 2 sides with each dinner plus fresh molasses bread. Steak cooked perfectly at medium-rare, 4 delicious shrimp, perfectly baked potato with butter, sour cream & chives & the freshest & crispiest green salad ever! Good discount too for good value. Look forward to my next meal there. Our waitress was super & friendly & made good suggestions. Suggested ordering steak rare so it could be adjusted to preference.

    We were greeted and treated well as soon as we entered. We had a very nice table by the windows. Our server Stefano was wonderful and helpful. The rest of the staff was very courteous and provided great service. Our foods were wonderful. Caesar salad, Peruvian Crudo as appetizers. Main courses scallops for Eddie and Blue fin tuna for me plus truffle yucca fries. Triple chocolate dome mousse (outstanding)and white cake with lavendar and lemon. Can’t beat the view.
