    It was lively on Valentine's Day, while the hostess kept calm and managed changes to reservations and ensuring everyone was comfortable. There was a festive theme, with hearts and confetti on mirrors and tables and a purposely printed menu. The service went at a good pace, never hurried. There was a good selection of French wines, The food choices were the standard dishes with generous portions. The crab cakes were nice but a little oily. Osso Buco came with a nice and tasty risotto and the lamb tenderness could improve. Salmon Wellington came with vegetables deliciously crisp and well season and buttery. A tasty sauce was poured all over the salmon pastry which made it soggy; better to have the sauce served on the side. The Chocolate Fondant was decadent and the Creme Brulé was ok, the caramel topping was not very crispy. Overall it was another good dinner at La Boheme.

    Dining in or outside terrific as new heaters and gazebo make the outdoor space warm and even cozy. The food- as always - is delicious and the pommes frites are as they are in Paris! Don’t miss the Gran Marnier soufflé !

    Overall, I love the location, vibe of the restaurant, atmosphere and service. We had the steak frit special and the goat cheese croquettes to eat. They were fine, but nothing memorable. I’ll probably go back and try something else.
