    Overall great experience, celebrated 2 birthdays and the service was excellent. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious, not hiccups! The drinks were very well made and refreshing. Inside is a little dark, but the windows/doors do open up to let in a lot of natural light.

    I have been here 3 years in a row and they never disappoint. Everything from start to finish was amazing. The waitress Karla was fantastic. Although we had been several times she had some new recommendations. I never had such a beautiful desert pairing and she nailed it. I’m so glad it was such a flavorful experience my steak was cooked to perfection. My oysters perfect and I will return. Thanks Blvd!

    If you're looking for innovative cocktails this is your spot! Our drinks were so unique and I would love to work my way through the menu to try all of them. Food was also great. We started with the crab dip; I had the steak frites, which was amazing. My husband had the short ribs. The vibe is really interesting, kind of dark and goth but not in a bad way. Great place to start or end your evening!
