The meal wasn't as good as in the past. The service was fine. There were three of us, and we all felt the same way regarding the food. The table next to us was extremely inconsiderate as far as volume and being able to hear each other at the table. We won't return for a while!

We were there to celebrate my friend’s birthday. The staff were very patient and kind. Food was delicious as usual. The only thing not absolutely perfect was the parking.

It's been a while since I've been back here - but it was totally worthwhile and (I didnt know) historically Michelin * rated. Bottom line we had super food, great service and a fantastic time. Definitely spendy (about $200/ head after prix-fixe <$125>/drinks/tip/6%SF charge for something?), but high-end/classy and overall top-notch.

I was told The Boulevard was an institution and it did not disappoint. The food was amazing and Patrick at the bar took great care of us. We could not have had a more enjoyable dinner.

We had a great dinner at Boulevard. We opted to sit in the lounge area as it allowed choice on menu items. Welcoming cozy spot to visit with attentive service. Great appetizers! It’s so lovely to see that some of these great restaurants still exist in San Francisco. We used to love visiting the city but recent years have made it really rough. Keep hoping it will come back! Seeing restaurants like this still here gives us hope!!!

We had an incredible meal here. The food was excellent, the drinks and wine service excellent. It had an excellent vibe, but was not pretentious.

Boulevard is a classic. Food and service is always terrific and there's always something new to choose from. The space is beautiful. Easy to converse since the noise level is low. It's been a favorite for years and they continue to maintain their high standards.
