I'm a vegetarian, so my review is somewhat limited. Patty and I enjoyed a drink at the bar before dinner. Good pours on both the wine and whisky! I can envision myself coming to this bar for a drink and a bite as many others were doing. This, my friend, is a special night out kind o' place. I enjoyed my mushroom ravioli. Patty said her catch of the day aka halibut, was "out of this world!" The bread was too-notch as was the maison salad, which loosely translated means "house salad." I know this because I watch French films such as "The 402 Blows" without, I repeat, without subtitles. read more

We had THEE best meal at Blue Boheme. The crab croquettes were delicious and we will surely order again on our next visit! We also had the flatbread. The steak and salmon were both delicious and meals we recommend. Cocktails hit the spot! Ambiance was nice and service was attentive and kind. They allowed mild substitutions without blinking an eye. Can't wait to go back! read more

Bleu Bohème - Steak Frites and Salmon - French Near Me - San Diego, California

Came here for restaurant week to try something fun and new around town. We got sat outside on the sidewalk area, which normally I wouldn't mind but I do think inside would have elevated the vibes and ambiance a little be more for the fancy restaurant. Our server was kind and helpful with our questions we had. The food was really great, the duck confit and chocolate mousse dessert were my favorite of the meal. The escargot was honestly so bad we had to spit it out and stop eating it. I've had good escargot before and this was not it read more

We had a great dinner at Bleu Bohème! The crab cakes were amazing--crisp on the outside and full of flavor. The snails were delicious, and the bread for dipping in the juices was perfect. The octopus dish had a nice texture and flavor, though it was a little too smoky for my taste. The steak was very tender and cooked perfectly--served slightly cold, but still really good. They had a great wine deal: $45 for a bottle to enjoy during dinner and one to take home for 10c. The wine paired nicely with the meal--not outstanding, but definitely a great value. Server was super friendly and attentive. We sat outside, which was lovely, but the inside looked cozy and charming too. Overall, a great experience and I'd definitely come back. read more

I really wanted to love this place. I think maybe I built it up in my head and it did not live up to my expectations. Sat outside on a beautiful chilly night but they use a ton of warmers to make it a heated patio. The server started off great but seemed to lose steam a quarter of the way through the meal. My drinks were empty and I kept looking for anyone to help but our table kept getting passed by. Someone sat near us who maybe come a lot and we didn't get any attention after that. Their food came first and drinks before we got anything. I ordered a spicy margarita but it didn't come until after I had already eaten my scallops. The food was lovely but I'll probably never come again. read more

This place feels like it should be in Paris. Great ambiance, cozy spot. Servers were friendly and knowledgable. Food was amazing. Had the braised short rib and the dessert sampler. House bourbon was tasty in an old fashioned. Definitely want to go back and try other dishes. Prices were reasonable. Highly recommend for date night. read more

It's Restaurant Week again, and I'd highly recommend giving this French restaurant a try. At around $65 per person, it offers great value for the experience. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the French ambiance--the lighting, candles, décor, and overall pace are all very charming. It's a great spot for a date or a small gathering with friends. The menu leans toward classic French cuisine, with elegant plating and refined flavors, not overly showy or pretentious. Every dish we ordered stood out, with well-layered sauces that clearly show the chef's attention to detail. For starters, the Rillettes de Saumon is highly recommended--it's so good you'll want to keep eating it. For the main course, the Confit de Canard is a must-try. This traditional dish from the Gascony region in southwestern France involves curing duck legs with salt and spices, then slowly cooking them in duck fat until the meat becomes tender and juicy. It's considered one of the finest dishes in French cuisine, especially recommended for duck lovers. The service was excellent as well--attentive without being intrusive, with a well-paced dining experience. Overall, it was a very enjoyable meal. Be sure to make a reservation in advance, and if possible, sit inside, as the ambiance is better than the outdoor seating. read more

Blue Bohème restaurant is authentic French cuisine in an intimate, romantic ambiance. My husband and I were so glad to had booked a reservation for 5pm - this place can get packed. But the food and service make it worthwhile. We started with drinks, sourdough bread and butter for the table, and the soup du jour (butternut squash) - all outstanding. I ordered the beef bourgeignon and it was cooked to perfection. I was afraid it was gonna be a tough cut of meat but not at all, it was tender and fork-soft. The red wine sauce and vegetables made it a superb meal. My husband had the entrecôte de porc (pork chops) and he was really happy and satisfied with his meal. Portions are generous and the service is 5-stars. Everyone from the hostess, the server, the busser, all very polite and attentive. We will definately come back to Bleu Bohème and try some more of their plates! À bientôt! read more

Nice dinner here with a friend. There's a small parking lot but it was full so give yourself time to find street parking. Vibe is warm and cozy inside. Service was friendly. Enjoyed my glass of wine, smoked salmon patte appetizer and the salad I added salmon to. Autumn salad was really good, I finished the whole thing. read more

ooh my stars this place is DELICIOUS. We have been here for drinks and dessert before but last night we had dinner with our dear friends who are regulars. I don't normally order pork but you musssst try it. And I had a bite of my friend's chicken - ALSO a must try!! The chef knows how to cook pork and chicken really well. Also, I'm only specifying those dishes because I have not yet tried other ones. I imagine the rest of the dishes are just as wonderful. They also make THEE best bread. And their gnocchi is hands-down the best I've ever tasted. Theirs is pillowy, melt in your mouth status folks. And the sauce that comes with it. Okay now I want to go back - stat! TBH, I don't really like gnocchi because every place I've had it at so far does not even come close to how they make it at Bleu Boheme. They also make their own bourbon in-house that you can request with an old-fashioned - I highly recommend doing this. Their cocktails and wines are also top notch. We had such a delicious dinner and the ambiance is great too. The wait staff is also very authentic and friendly and ask them for your help if you don't know what to order. Enjoy!! read more

The atmosphere is so cute. Great for a date night! It gets busy I would make a reservation. I was excited there were gluten free options including a gluten free baguette to go with our cheese plate. I know it's a little basic but I really enjoyed the Boeuf Bourguignon. read more

Ambiance was great with the mood lighting and French decor. Additionally, the service was wonderful and we got their great wine special which was $45 for a bottle and you take a second home for 10 cents. I would come back here to try a few more dishes and some more wine! The dishes we did try lacked that "wow" factor in my opinion. The onion soup was good but I've had better and it came out warm, not hot, as I was expecting. The crab croquettes on the other hand were phenomenal! The duck dish was overpowered by a very strong herb flavor and the beef was nothing too exciting - very basic. Our desserts did the trick, but again, I've had better crème brûlée and the brioche was quite dense. I'd come back again and give it another shot with some different dishes but overall I wasn't blown away. read more

Moules frites we're amazing. They serve you a copious amount. Fries were a little bit too salty for taste, but still good. Good selection of wine, and their desserts were pretty good too. If you sit outside, just know you'll probably be hearing the live music booming from across the street. Service was great. Waiter was affable and accommodating. read more

First of all, we were there for a special occasion and everything was fantastic. The The mussels at happy hour were the best I've ever had and I've had plenty. Juicy succulent and a mouthful who could ask for anything more. The snails were OK a bit too spongy though. The pork chop the duck and the gnocchi were all beautifully done. The crêpes for the crêpe Suzette were a bit heavy, almost like buckwheat crêpes took away from the tenderness. All the wines by the glass were generous in portion and the suggestions from the staff hit the spot. Will be back at every happy hour when I'm in town to devour more of those beautiful mussels. read more

I had coordinated with Jasmine, special events manager, for my company's private dinner in their Stone Room. She was very detail-oriented and accommodating. I had pre-ordered the following for our "Bohemien" style dinner: Wine Selection: - 206 Schlumberger "Princes Abbes" Riesling 2018 First Course: - La Charcuterie: house-made duck pâté, pork terrine de campagne, jambon de Bayonne, garlic sausage, Rosette de Lyon, Spanish chorizo, coppa sausage, pickled vegetables, croûtons, olives, Dijon mustard - Sadie Rose French Country Sourdough Loaves with Sweet Butter Second Course: - Croquette de Crabe: crab croquettes, jicama remoulade, tomato-rocket salad, saffron aioli - Crêpe au Homard: lobster crêpe, marscarpone cheese, jicama remoulade, white truffle-carrot sauce - Poulpe Rôti: seared Spanish octopus, Portuguese linguica, creamy polenta, roasted chickpeas, fresh tomatoes, sauce verte Third Course: - Salade Maison: butter leaf lettuce, basil/shallot vinaigrette, tapenade croûton, Roquefort blue cheese, apples, almonds, market beets Fourth Course: - Mediterranean Mussels prepared Marinière style: parsley, tomatoes, white wine, garlic, shallots, thyme, butter; served with Pommes Frites Fifth Course: - Coq au Vin: red-wine braised chicken thighs, smoked bacon, carrots, pearl onions, cremini mushrooms, fresh herbs, baguette - Saumon Oscar: Faroe Island salmon filet crusted with crab, pommes purée, fresh asparagus, sauce Béarnaise Sixth Course: - Mousse au Chocolat: dark Callebaut chocolate mousse, seasonal berries One of our guests was vegan, and the chef prepared a roasted vegetable entree for her that was very satisfying. Our server, Gina, took excellent care of us and was always mindful that our water and wine glasses were promptly refilled. The restaurant was very cozy and our private room was separated from the main dining room by a thick velvet curtain. The room itself was nicely set up with a long table for our party of 12, with aged candles that had the wax build-up to give it a medieval appearance. Our pre-selected courses were pre-printed on a custom menu so the guests would know what courses to expect for this unique dining experience. As it turns out, some members of our party were unable to attend due to the unavailability of Uber and Lyft drivers from downtown to this venue. Apparently, it was a busy weekend with the tree lighting ceremonies at Balboa Park and other locations. We had so much food leftover and Gina graciously packed and labeled all of them, which was very much appreciated. For the Charcuterie, what really stood out to me was the house-made duck pâté. It had a rich smoky flavor that was notably the best pâté I've ever had. I've dined at Michelin star restaurants domestically and in Europe, and Bleu Boheme notably has the best duck pâté in my opinion. I enjoyed all 3 items from the Second Course, although I felt the crab croquettes would have been better served with the saffron aioli on the side, as to opposed to on top of the croquettes. Also, the jicama remoulade was a bit too heavy on the cream for me. For a deep fried appetizer like this, a light and citrusy jicama salad would have balanced the flavors and elevated the dish. I had a similar issue with the lobster crêpe. There was already marscarpone cheese inside the crêpe with the lobster, so the jicama remoulade and white truffle-carrot sauce made this dish too rich for my taste. Like the crab croquettes, I would've enjoyed these crêpes more if they were served with something light and citrusy to balance the heaviness of the marscapone cheese. The Salade Maison was the crowd favorite. With all the other heavy dishes, we were craving for something that would cleanse our palette, and this was it. My only complaint was that I had specifically requested blue cheese and dressing on the side while I was planning the menu and it was noted on the contract. All but one of the salads had the blue cheese, anchovies, and dressing mixed in, which I did not care for. The one salad that was sparred was for our vegan guest. I was particularly disappointed since this was the one dish that I was looking forward to the most. The Coq au Vin and Mediterranean Mussels were my 2 least favorite dishes. For both of these, the wine was not reduced so it left a very over-powering wine taste that was a bit too strong to enjoy. The Pomme Frites were also overly salty. They were thin and crispy but were drenched in salt. The salmon was perfectly cooked, and the pommes purée (mashed potatoes) were delish. I wasn't a huge fan of the asparagus, which I thought were over-cooked and the Béarnaise sauce was too creamy and buttery. The Mousse au Chocolat was devine and tasted heavenly. The fresh berries (strawberries and blueberries) helped cut the richness of the dark chocolate mousse, so this dessert was very well executed and well balanced. Overall, we had a very pleasant evening! read more

The Bleu Boheme is a Kensington stand out. From the mussels served several different way to the amazing martinis with bleu cheese olives, my friends and I just love this place. Ken is a seasoned chef and all around wonderful person. When I was younger I worked in many kitchens around San Diego, and I can tell he would be a pleasure to work for....but I am not in the culinary arts. I used to cook food, now I cook metal ; ] The sourdough and soft whipped butter sets off the dinner in dim candlelight with linen cloth napkins. Much of the staff here has been here for years, so you will get stellar service. Come early for the one hour HH from 5 - 6 pm. The French onion soup is a standout, but don't leave the fries out! Seriously great fries here. There's nothing that goes down smoother than a Kettle One martini with bleu cheese olives, paired with the Moules Frites; au Roquefort blue cheese cream, scallions. Just amazing! read more

Came for restaurant week. The menu looked fantastic so I was excited to check it out. Unfortunately everything across the board was underseasoned. Flavor had potential but it just needed some salt. Here is what I got: Gnocchi: Great pillow texture. Had a nice smoky element to it. Scallops with risotto: Wish they seared both sides of the scallops. Lobster flavor in the risotto unfortunately does not come through. Bread pudding: Not as indulgent as I had hoped. Texture seemed off. It was too dense and lacked moisture. Maybe serving with ice cream would have made it better. Service was friendly but will note that it was a little slow. read more

Ended up staying local for Thanksgiving and decided to try out this spot for a Thanksgiving lunch. Let me tell you, it was busy right when they opened. You definitely want a reservation just so you don't have to stress about waiting a long time for a seat. The ambience is super cute. Plenty of seating indoors, at the bar, and seating outside. The outdoor seating gives the vibe of dining in Paris. They're well known for their martinis and they offer up a lot of variety. We got their basil martini, espresso martini, and blue martini. The basil was good and not overly sweet. If you like a simple martini, the blue one is for you. Espresso martini was also good - not overly sweet as well. They're all strong too. Sourdough bread is to die for. I'm drooling thinking about their bread. Crab croquettes were delicious. Pate & Terrine hit the spot cause I was craving pate. It is a lot and was too much for just the two of us. Boeuf Bourguignon was hearty and their Turkey plate was so good. I didn't think the Turkey plate would have been my favorite. Dessert was a great way to close the meal. Nothing bad to say about anything we ate or drank. Service was a little wonky. We sat at the bar and just didn't know who our person was. There were multiple persons behind the bar but no one acknowledged us. It took awhile to put our order in. A table that sat down a few min after us got their food before we even ordered. That's why I gave one less star. But that won't prevent me from coming back, I'll just reserve a table that's not at the bar next time. read more

Okayyyy this place is CUTE! Right away ambience was a GEM...we're talking candles that look right out of Beauty and the Beast and a coziness that you typically can only get when traveling to another country. Twinkly lights for Christmas...ambience 10/10. Our hostess Emily was really accommodating and moved us from outside to inside because I got cold and plus it was so cute inside that's just where I wanted to be and she made it happen and it was appreciated. We got two plates to share, the crab cakes and the patatas bravas. Very tasty. And we both got the Soupe a l'oignon gratinee. Did we pronounce it correctly? No. Was it really perfect for a chilly night. YES. It's the kind of dish you come back for. My husband and I are set in our ways. We try different spots but we typically stick to our tried and true for the most part but we will definitely be weaving this absolute gem of a restaurant in to our go to's. Tips, there's parking in the back but the lot was full when we got there so give yourself time to park and absolutely make a rez. read more

We picked this spot for Valentine's Day, which may not have been the best move. We had a reservation, but for such a cute romantic spot, this place was slammed. We were sat quickly outside, which was a bit chilly (there were a few issues with the heaters, but they got it sorted) and much less romantic while staring at the busy street. The menu was prefixed, including many of their usual options and a specialty cocktail. I was happily surprised by the choices of fun NA beverages as well. I opted for the mango mule, and it was fabulous. I went in with the expectation that things would be slower due to the holiday, but some things went quite wrong. Appetizer soup came out, and it was lukewarm. The time between the first and second courses was long, but it was due to an order mix-up - they had brought the table next to our entrees (before they got their appetizers). About 15-20 go by while I assume they sort this out and they brought out our mains. The steak was cold upon arrival, and my ravioli seemed a bit soggy and lukewarm. We asked if the dishes could be reheated, and the manager accommodated the request. At that point, I was ready to go home, given we had been there for nearly 2 hours. More care was put into ensuring the desserts were warm and ready for us, but we were the last few tables there. For an over $300 experience, I didn't feel it was worth it. read more

Took my wife here for dinner last night and it was nice. Tried the bread service, mussels and fries, and the pork chop meal for dinner. Ambiance was cute inside but it got a little warm after a while. We realized we should've taken the table outside since it was such a nice and cool. Unfortunately the service had some challenges, then got my order wrong. Thankfully a manager was walking around and happened to ask if all was ok, then replaced it. read more

Popped in last night, not knowing it was restaurant week. There were no tables available, but the hostess said she's see what she can do. She got us in about 5-10 min later to a nice table for two outside. I'm very limited as to what I can eat since I'm dairy-free. On the pre fix menu I choose the roasted beet salad and the steak frittes. 10/10 on both dishes. I could've licked the salad bowl clean if it wasn't socially unacceptable. The filets were cooked perfectly. I'm a very particular eater, this place is perfect. Also our server (forgot her name, so sad) is an angel. 10/10 on service, food and cleanliness. read more

My husband and I came here in on a date night. We were walking around Kensington and popped in on a Friday evening. We sat at the bar, the ambiance was really nice. The restaurant was busy but seating was available. Pricing is more on the above average end. This was the first time I have ever eaten at a French restaurant. I had the coquille st Jacques and my husband had the coq au vin. The food came out in a good time, the scallops were seared perfectly. The lobster risotto was alright, it could have gone without the peas. The peas overpowered the risotto itself. The sauce was delicious. I would give this dish a solid 8. After I finished my dish, I was still hungry so I wasn't completely fulfilled. My husband was not a fan of the coq au vin, he said he would give it a 6.5/10. It was bland. The service is the reason for the 3 stars. I didn't find the male bartender/server friendly. Not once we were asked how our food was and he seemed kind of annoyed we didn't order drinks beside the sprite. I mean, I am pregnant and my husband is driving lol. And we had to ask for a refill. It was a good place to try for a date night. read more

First, I love this restaurant. The food is outstanding and the ambiance is incredibly charming. I am having to give only 2 stars due to the outrageous service I received. I was finishing my lobster crepe in a carrot sauce when a different server walked up and took my plate away saying "You're done..Are you going to lick it?". Unbelievable...my compatriot was in disbelief that someone would say something like that in a business establishment. After, we ordered desserts. I was taking my time, on the decadent flourless chocolate cake, when the same server again walked up to our table staring at our plates. I proactively put my hands out guarding the plates stating "we are still working on these plates". She replied with a smirk "of course you are". Wow!!! My friend said this is crazy rude. I decided to say something. First, I told my waitress. She then brought out the manager who said these issues have been addressed to this server already and he has been trying to set her straight on how she treats people. Doesn't look like it's working. I want to bring my family in there, but am concerned since it's not inexpensive. No one wants to spend a pretty penny to be treated like crap. They did comp the coffees and one dessert, but this was super bad. read more

It pays to be a regular. I was asked to move over to make room for a regular. Greeting at the bar was very slow although not busy during happy hour... which is very French. Happy hour wines are from Fallbrook and local, not French. The pour is very generous for the happy hour price and is on tap. (White wine) Definitely pricey for food but happy hour seems decent. The stone look in the back does look a little renaissance rustic. The theme is the melted wax candles. It sounds like reservations are a must. Opens at 5pm. 5-6pm "social hour". read more

Lovely, Kava pairing was crisp and tangy, setting the palate straight for the tender white sauce of the salmon. Enjoy. read more

I liked the ambiance of the candle lit dinner. My server was great. One gripe that I had is that the duck confit was served with greens on top, which kind of took away from the expected crisped skin of a duck confit, instead it was just kind of soggy. The flavor was fine, but The duck was also not hot. It wasn't cold, but I expected the dish to be hotter. The Steak frites au poivre tasted great, it was a tender, albeit tiny. read more

Decided to give this place a try since my niece and nephew never had French cuisine and plus the wait for the Ponce (Mexican restaurant) on the end of the street was just too long. We didn't made reservation and was informed next availability would be around 8:15pm. We left and then came back attempting to make reservation the next day, and was told they are off on Sundays and Mondays!!! We walked out the restaurant feeling disappointed, a lovely staff stopped us outside the door and told us they will get a table ready at the back outside the restaurant. We were so happy they accommodated us at the last minute!! The food took a little longer to arrived and we are happy with the dishes ordered. 3 out of 5 dishes are worthy coming back while the other 2 were average. 1) Saumon Saute was tasty with the white sauce. 2) Entrecôte de Porc was tender and surprisingly good with the curry sauce. 3) Coquilles St. Jacques were nicely seasoned didn't care for the pesto sauce. 4) Coq au Vin was overly done and drowned with red wine and overcooked chicken. 5) Escargots were ok nothing special in my opinion 6) La Planche Degustation - various cheese and meat - nothing special The highlight dishes are pork chop, salmon, and scallops for us. Would come back for the service thou!!! read more

We went here for a date night and were pleasantly surprised to get a last minute reservation. Upon arriving, we received a table inside. There was a nice buzz inside the restaurant. Initially I was concerned because it was a little loud, but that subsided and the atmosphere was extremely pleasant, as was our server. Actually, the entire service team was really outstanding as several team members checked on us throughout the meal. For starters, we shared the La Planche Degustation - which is their charcuterie board with meats and cheeses. I think if we did this again we would just get the cheese portion - which is on the menu as "Les Fromages". When we sat down we were asked if we wanted bread for the table. We said yes, not realizing there was a $6.50 charge. It's not a lot in the general scheme of things, but paying almost $7 for bread would have possibly changed how we ordered the rest of our meal. For our entree, we shared the Boeuf Bourguignon, which we enjoyed. To go with this, we ordered the Salade De Betteraves. For me, this salad was a little too much. I was hoping for a more basic salad option to go with dinner, but there wasn't one on the menu. While the food was good, it was a pricey night for us. With tip, our bill was about $115. Considering we shared our entree & salad and didn't get drinks or dessert, this is a lot to spend on dinner. If we were going to spend this much money, there are several high end establishments we would try out instead. read more

This was our second time eating at Blue Boheme. I was so looking forward to it and our overall experience was not good. We dined on a Tuesday night. It was busy-we had a reservation and were seated promptly. The service was so slow! Drinks came out way after we finished our appetizer, (gnocchi which was good!) and once we received our main course we weren't check on again. We shared the steak frittes and it was bland. There was no salt or pepper on the table and could not get anyone's attention to bring it. The server was apologetic but overall a not great experience. This morning we are left with severe indigestion and no appetite. There are better places to eat for the prices charged. read more

It has been several years since I've frequented this cute French restaurant. The last time I went, I wasn't too impressed, so it was due time for me to give this place another try, and restaurant week was the perfect time to revisit. The dining area is rustic and quaint with a few patio tables littering the front. We were seated right away and were presented with menus. Cocktail: La Federation. A little more alcohol than I would like. I only finished half because it was so strong. I haven't decided whether it was a good or bad thing, haha. Appetizer: Salade de Betteraves. I loved the freshness and lightness of this salad. Good way to open up the meal. Main: Coquilles St. Jacques. Reading the menu, it was the saffron lobster risotto that spoke to me! How could I resist? I wasn't disappointed. This dish was everything and more. The scallops had a nice crust and were cooked perfectly. The risotto was to die for! I literally ate everything on my plate. I would definitely order this again. It's a must-have!!! Dessert: Mousse au Chocolat. I was so full from my main that I couldn't finish this. It was actually quite a lot for one person with two scoops of mousse. The dessert had a creamy, smooth consistency with a rich, dark chocolate flavor. The fresh berries were a nice complement. Overall, this experience was way better than the last time! I was pleasantly surprised with the food. Service was excellent. I'll definitely come back again. read more
