You’ll get food poisoning
The worst experience ever. Do not go here. We were on vacation in San Fran and went here as it had good reviews. The food was truly awful, they severed the sea bass raw, it had water running though it when cut with a knife and was not cooked. Neither of us touched it after one small bite as if was raw. The waitress could see we didn’t touch it but didn’t ask us once how our food was or why we hadn’t eaten it. When we complained, we were told the food is served rare. Absolute joke, rest of food was mediocre, it’s really not good food. The manager was very rude and refused to give us a refund. I’m going to raise the issue with the San Fran Food Agency.

I am originally from Europe and a few days ago I was looking for a good restaurant to celebrate my birthday party. So I called the restaurant to ask some questions. It was an international call and it felt like I was constantly being cut off. My gut tells me, that I’m not a person who picked up an English language, so my stomach was gripped in horror to repeat some questions, but the reservationist was really nice and her patience was worth any cost and sacrifice. Thanks a lot for such an awesome attitude!

Wonderfully delicious food....lovely attentive service...and a very beautiful interior. I like to sit at the counter to watch the chefs cook. Unfortunately, the counter seats are dreadfully uncomfortable. .very hard like sitting in 2nd class on a bad train.

We had a great experience at Boulevard. The wine menu is terrific and wines reasonably priced. We love Grueners from Wachau Valley and they had a huge selection. Our server Constantine was very helpful and even took the time to explain the history of the building and the decor which made the evening that much more enjoyable. I really enjoyed the crab salad and my partner had the crudo to start. Then we shared the scallops which were done perfectly, not overdone in the least. And the beef was aged and delicious. We ended the night with the special olive cake with hints of rubarb and chocolate cake which were both excellent. This is an experience not to be missed!

Iconic SF restaurant that didn’t disappoint. Incredible service, warm and beautiful interior. Food was impeccably plated and divine. Every course better than the first. Amazing!
Be the first to ReplyAll around great place
Had a great dinner here. They were super accommodating after a mishap caused us to be an hour late for our reservation. The food and drinks were super yummy. Super ambiance. Very generous plates and huge desserts. The carrot cake, while unconventional, was our favorite. Should have a Michelin star.

Celebrated our son's 23rd birthday here and had one of several memorable times. We also love sitting at the bar when ordering a light meal and enjoy watching the chefs cook!
Be the first to ReplyBirthday Dinner
On September 22, 2022 I invited my friend for her Birthday to Boulevard in San Francisco. We are from Texas and we had never been, we arrived at our reservation at 8:30 and seated by - very sweet hostess. We sat and they gave my friend a birthday card and we ordered a bottle of wine while we looked at dinner menu. Turns out our waiter, Dino, told us that we had to order the pre set menu in the dining room, which we were never aware of that this was mandatory. We thought we would order a la carte, but little did we know we had to order one of the prefixed menu items each. We asked if we would just share one prefixed or a la carte and he said he would ask the manager. Jacob the GM came to our table and notified us that we had to order the prefixed menu each or we would be relocated not in the dining room area basically to the bar. We already had our bottle of wine, complimentary starter. We were mortified that we would be relocated because he didn’t make an exception. He said I have a great table for you in the corner, why would we move when there were several open tables in dining area. I politely asked Jacob, If we could just stay and he rudely said no. Jacob insisted on moving us to the very dark back section of the lounge bar area. The point of us visiting boulevard was for the ambiance and food, but Jacob made it the worse experience because he told us we had to move in front of the other customers seated next to us, we saw him whisper to his employees while they stared at us while we finished our bottle of wine, so we immediately asked for the tab and he insisted we move but we wanted to leave because he embarrassed us and was so rude beyond anything I have experienced in a restaurant. Slammed the tab on the table and we took our time finishing our bottle of wine. On our way out we thanked the nice hostess and Jacob rushed up to us to ask what was happening because we were thanking her and I accidentally bumped into him and Jacob shouted to me DON’T TOUCH ME! The GM Jacob is not representing this restaurant in a positive manner. He should have had good judgement and let us stay wheee we were seated, we were willing to spend a lot , had ordered wine, it was my birthday , and there were so many vacant open tables. He was very unprofessional and rude, made us feel so much n comfortable and unwelcome. I asked our waiter Dino the name for Jacob’s supervisor and he was scared and did not disclose. The worst experience in San Francisco!
Be the first to ReplySuper - is now a set menu to choose from for $98
Super food, service & ambience as always BUT this is now a 3 course menu for $98 per person which reduces flexibility - we struggle to eat the quantity of food. To start we enjoyed tuna carpaccio / lobster & prawn ravioli; and then lamb / pork chop. To finish strawberry choux bun. Very lovely service, we had a beautiful booth table (thank you Boulevard) and service is spot on. Would recommend.
Be the first to ReplyUnflexable, uptight, not welcoming
We were with our familie of four in holiday and our mum was not hungry and just wanted to have a soup. Not possible you need to eat three courses everybody no exceptions. Alternative to sit somewhere else with the whole group because one of us did not go for the full menu. Uptight ignorant don’t go.

The art nouveau style of the restaurant is gorgeous, but the food is even more beautifully prepared, and DELICIOUS! They serve a 3 course prix fixe style menu. The bar selection is extensive.

In August, we were back in San Francisco for meetings for my wife. This has been a constant for 15 plus years, with at least once per month business trips - and sometimes more - many more. Those are winding down, as her corporate offices are moving to Chicago, so we have been doing our “swan song,” of San Francisco dining, making sure to get back to our favorites, while we still can. Boulevard, at 1 Mission St, not too far from the Ferry Plaza Building and the Bay has been one of our favorites, over the years, since we first discovered it. Well, we did not actually discover it, per se, as one of my wife’s San Francisco co-workers first recommended it, and we sort of filed the name away for later. Then, a year later, a friend, who is a Sommelier in San Francisco said, “You must visit Boulevard for their wines, but do stay for the food!” Two recs, and we booked Boulevard for the next trip. We did go for the wines, and stayed for Chef Nancy Oakes’ food. That was probably about 5 visits ago, scattered several months apart. This visit, was just under 12 months, since we had last dined there.
Often, I have to meet my wife for dinner, as her meetings always seem to run over. This visit to Boulevard was an exception, and I think that it was the first time, that we walked through the door together - at least in many years. We were seated at a small table, along the windows, looking out onto Mission St, with a view of the open kitchen to my left, and to much of the main dining room. Over the years, we have ordered á la carte, but also enjoyed Chef Oakes’ Seasonal Tasting Menu, which is what we decided on this visit. While maybe not truly “farm to table,” Chef Oakes mostly does local sourcing, such as the Monterey Bay Octopus on the Tasting Menu.
The wines, that were part of that initial recommendation, were still on the list. In some instances, we have turned the Sommelier loose to pair the wines, but as Boulevard has a very good half-bottle list, that was the direction I went with. As we often dine as a couple, a workable list of half-bottles will allow me to do my own pairings, without sacrificing to a B-T-G list (though Boulevard’s is a good one), or having to pair just the perfect 0.750 bottle with all dishes, and especially a tasting menu.
All of the dishes were very good, plated beautifully, and in keeping with the Summer Season. Our service was perfect, and the pacing ideal - no long pauses, or rushed aspects. The wine service was excellent, and the stemware very nice. The only little complaint that I had, was that this table was small, but almost all along the exterior wall, are. I like the two “booths” across the aisle from where we sat, but then one’s back is to the open kitchen. This table would have been problematic, if we had gone with the Sommelier’s Wine Pairing, but with just 2 glasses each, we managed fine.
The lighting is good, and we had the benefit of the early evening sky, through the windows. The noise level rose to about moderate, and especially when the little bar, toward the front of the restaurant, filled up - still, easy conversation was possible. There is seating at the front of the restaurant, but I find that with its proximity to the bar, it can get a bit loud, plus patrons entering the restaurant walk right beside your table. I prefer the area to the rear, closest to the kitchen, as it is usually quieter, and has far, far less foot traffic.
I am not sure if we’ll make it back, but hope to, at least once more, before all of our trips point toward Chicago, instead of San Francisco - either way, I will toast Chef Oakes and Boulevard, and also our Sommelier friend, who said to go for the wines, but stay for the food. How correct she was!
Lovely Meal
This was a lovely place to have dinner. It had a gorgeous backdrop right in front of the bay bridge and service was on-point.

Although not a frequent customer I always try to take out of town guests here. The food is consistently excellent, and its just a beautiful space , right near the Bay Bridge. We just were there with cousins from France, and they were really impressed. Lots of pricey restaurants in the City, but at Boulevard you feel like its worth every penny !
Be the first to ReplyAfter all these years, still an excellent restaurant
Boulevard does not know how to disappoint...it continues to have and adhere to the highest restaurant standards.
The food is fresh, lovely, delicious, imaginative and we'll prepared; the staff takes excellent care of the patrons; the wine list is long and offers many possibilities; the ambiance is welcoming.
It's a treat; we will come back!!
Best Restaurant in San Francisco.
I recently returned to 'Boulevard' on 2/22/2020 after having not dined there for awhile. I realize what I missed having stayed away too long. I will be a regular again from now on. I brought a party of 7, myself included, to celebrate my daughters' 30th. Birthday. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and the food and wine, as usual, was superb.
The Staff at Boulevard are the best of the best. We could not have been happier with the Star treatment we received. This Restaurant is truly Number 1 on my list of Restaurants in San Francisco.
We will be back again soon.
Lovely
A lovely feel to this traditional restaurant with a twist. Excellent creative food and terrific service. A good choice

The wine list is fabulous. The waiter was great. The menu descriptions mouth waters and the pork chop had to be sent back. Been there twice - this is the first time I experienced a snafu.
Be the first to ReplyGreat Atmosphere - Slow Service
Slow, inconsistent service. Ten minutes to take the beverage order, only to have it lost and not delivered for another 20. Fish entree was grossly undercooked, then turned to mush when reheated. The evening was partially salvaged by their astute sommolier.
