    Thai Peanut Chicken Salad
    Ellie K.

    I have been SO excited to try this place as i always drive by it and dream about their cute patio! My friend and I stopped by for a late lunch and grabbed a spot on the patio. Their patio is SO cute with lots of plants, a great atmosphere, and the perfect vibe. The service was also excellent--our waitress was super attentive, checked in often, and gave us some great recommendations. We both ordered vanilla iced lattes, which were good but a little too milky for my taste. For lunch, I got the Thai Peanut Salad, and it was exactly what I was looking for--fresh, flavorful, and light. My only complaint is that I wish it had a bit more protein to help balance out all the veggies and make it a little more filling. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and will definitely be back to try their breakfast and dinner menus. The cute patio alone is worth a visit!

    My first time sitting on the patio at BLVD, and it's definitely a vibe to be out there on a beautiful day like today! My forever favorite app to start the meal is the Pull-Apart bread, it is the BEST! It is so warm and soft. This was my first time going here for lunch rather than dinner and I tried the 1/2 Avocado BLT Combo with the Caesar salad. The Caesar was a little dry, I do wish it had a bit more dressing. Same with the BLT sandwich, it was a little bland. The sandwich itself was very thick and kind of hard to bite into. Overall, still a good lunch and would go back again to try something else! I'm also intrigued by the brunch menu, which I found out they offer their full brunch on Sundays.

    Prickly Pear Nojito

    Stopped in for breakfast at BLVD Kitchen & Bar and had a lovely experience in this upscale bistro setting. The space feels refined yet comfortable. Service was friendly and efficient, even if not particularly standout. I started with the tomato basil soup, and wow -- it was the highlight of the meal. Rich, velvety, and full of flavor. It also came with grilled cheese (which made it even better). As someone who's always on the hunt for a great tomato basil soup, this one definitely delivers. For my entrée, I ordered the croissant breakfast sandwich with chipotle hollandaise on the side. The croissant was flaky and buttery, and the sauce added a nice little kick without overpowering the sandwich. To drink, I had the Prickly Pear Nojito -- refreshing with just the right touch of sweetness. Overall, the soup stole the show, and I'd absolutely come back for that alone.

    Made a reservation just hours before coming in on a Friday evening and we got a table right away. Anastasia was our waitress and she knowledgeable at offering what's the newest on the menu and the daily specials. The "perfect pear" cocktail was so delicious I end up having 3 glasses of it. Along side pan seared calamari, filet mignon, and the Seabass and curry coconut was amazing good. Great meal to end our night

    Lunch Half Sandwich (Turkey) and Salad
    Dana K.

    Delicious find tucked off the beaten path. Met a coworker for lunch and it's a lively, happening place (even on a Tuesday). The half sandwich with soup or salad is a great option with large portion. Good service and I'll definitely be back to try for dinner and/or drinks.

    Jake appeared instantly to offer drinks! Spicy margarita thank you! We shared pull-apart bread (delicious) and Asian Ribs (double delicious). Ordered Waygu Black and Blue burger and Fries, BBQ ribs, BLVD Burger, prosciutto and pear flatbread. . So many options that tempted all. Jake scored big when he brout our plates for sharing the burger in ADVANCE! Usually we get the meal and have to ask for the extra plate . . And wait. Awesome time in this happy place! And . . Hot towels between courses!!!

    Espresso Martini
    Tara G.

    I went to BLVD for Saturday brunch with a group of friends and there was a lot to love: - The Espresso Martini (my drink of choice at any time of day) tasted great. - The food was really good. I had the Crab Cake Benedict - highly recommend! I also got a side of the Lobster Mac to bring home and even reheated it was delicious. - Although located in a strip mall, the inside of the restaurant is very classy. - Our server was very personable and once we got our orders in everything came out really quick. We did wait a little longer than I was expecting for our orders and our checks after we were done eating, however that was partially our fault as we were a group of 6 friends catching up and it was obvious our server was trying to be respectful and give us space.

    Salted Caramel Sundae
    Laura E.

    My mom came here on Friday with some friends and enjoyed the food (I think crab cakes?). She suggested going here last night and tried calling to make a reservation. Though she was told that they couldn't take reservations by phone, we were seated right away when we arrived. Plenty of seating inside and outside; we decided to sit outside. I got the seafood cioppino and my mom got the ribs. Cioppino had bread at the bottom of the bowl, which I have not seen before. For dessert, I had the salted caramel sundae, which had the perfect balance of sweet and salty. Waiter was friendly and our food was served quickly. Would come back!

    BLVD Kitchen & Bar: A Fun and Fun Easter I loved everything about our Easter. BLVD Kitchen & Bar got 5 stars from us. I was impressed how smooth everything was, considering it's Easter Sunday and all. The atmosphere is amazing. The dim lighting is so calming and comfortable. The service was top notch. From holding doors open to old school customer service the staff were super friendly and made us feel welcome and valued. The food was great. I mean, it's a good thing. The food was a work of art. Each dish was presented so beautifully it was almost too pretty to eat! The taste didn't quite live up to the presentation but it was good. But the star of the show for me was the mint lemonade. It was so good! So sweet and full of fruit flavor. Try it! Overall BLVD Kitchen & Bar is a great spot for a special occasion or just a night out. The atmosphere, service and food is a total win.

    Pepita Crusted Halibut
    Gina Z.

    BLVD is always a guaranteed good bite! I've had the pleasure of dining here multiple times and am a big fan of their scratch kitchen. As soon as you enter BLVD, the smell of the wood-fired grill captivates your nostrils. BLVD offers a wide variety of à la carte items and seasonal specials. During my recent visit, our table had the pleasure of indulging in: - "Pepita crusted Halibut": the Halibut was buttery, crunchy, and flaky. Paired with a butternut squash mash, this creamy pairing melted in my mouth at first bite. I found the thickness and portion to be fair for value; it was a steak-like piece of fish. I would happily order this dish again, but unfortunately, it will only be available for the fall season. - "Grilled Salmon": Served with basmati rice, asparagus, and pineapple salsa. The basmati rice was slightly undercooked, but it didn't compromise my liking of the salmon and the asparagus. The MVP of this dish was a creamy garlic aioli served on the side, but I smothered it over most of my bites. - "Margherita Pizza": I love wood-fired grilled pizzas, and this one is done right. 5/5 cheese pull! Thin, light, and perfectly crisp crust. These bites were crunchy and creamy. I loved the choice of cherry tomatoes over sliced tomatoes, as it made every bite of this pizza insanely juicy - in the best way. - "Kid's Cheeseburger": From the little person at the table, the kid's cheeseburger was rated 5/5. The brioche bun was described as soft and buttery, and the patty (which only includes cheese) as delicious. -"Seasonal Pumpkin Ice Cream": This was UH-MAY-ZING! I was skeptical at first because while I appreciate Pumpkin, I'm not a die-hard Pumpkin-flavored fan. However, this ice cream was perfectly balanced. In the ice cream, I tasted notes of vanilla and cinnamon. Mixed in were tiny, grated pieces of fresh pumpkin, which were not overpowering and just the right touch. Served with the ice cream for dipping, or eating alone, was a house-made biscotti. The biscotti was baked crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. I've dined at BLVD several times in the last several years. I've rarely had a negative experience as it relates to their cuisine, and none that compromised my return. In my experience, the food has been fresh, savory, and cooked very well. The service may be a hit or miss, depending on their level of business. Not an excuse or fun to experience, but for the most part, I've had more positive experiences than negative. I'm unsure if BLVD accepts reservations as they're not on OpenTable, and every time I've dined, I've walked in. There are times (especially during Happy Hour and weekends) when the restaurant is full. Still, even then, the hosts are pretty accommodating, and I've not experienced a wait longer than 20-30 minutes during rushes. During your wait - should that ever be your experience - the bar at BLVD is my second favorite reason to revisit. Whether a mocktail or a cocktail, BLVD's bartenders know how to mix a good time. My favorite mocktail is the refreshing "Blackberry Basil Mocktini". My favorite cocktail is the stiff but well-balanced "Perfect Pear". My multiple returns confirm my opinion of this special, casual eatery.

    We check this place out awhile back and my experience has stuck with me since. We paid about $150 after tip for very mediocre food. I've included a picture of everything we got and honestly everything was bland. I was most excited for the lobster Mac and Cheese (which looks beautiful and life it'd have a lot of flavor) but it had zero flavor to it. In the pictures it looked like the restaurant would have a pretty cozy dining vibe but once we got there we realized it has a pretty corporate atmosphere. Maybe it was because we went on a weekday so maybe the weekends are different but it was not ideal for a romantic date night. Our service was alright but honestly a little awkward. I got long pauses/blank stares from the waitress after everything I said and it made me slightly uncomfortable. I will say the BLVD ice cube in our drink was a nice touch and I found that to be pretty neat. But it honestly didn't make up for the price tag. I'm not one to leave bad reviews or to be too harsh but we won't be back after this initial experience.

    Salmon dinner with pineapple salsa, asparagus, and rice.
    Amy A.

    Picked up a takeaway dinner from BLVD recently. Process was very easy - can order online through the website and meal was available in about 20 min. Pick-up was also easy from the host stand inside. Utensils were provided upon asking. I ordered the salmon filet entree with pineapple salsa, asparagus, and rice. Salmon was perfectly cooked - you can tell them how they want it cooked when you check out, I chose medium rare. The pineapple salsa was excellent and the asparagus and rice were good as well. Prices are a bit high, but the meal was very high-quality and I would order again. Enjoyed the flavors!

    White Chocolate Bread Pudding with a birthday sparkler
    Beth F.

    Our plans had to pivot so our group ended up here and what a treat! While the patio dining looked so pretty, we didn't have a reservation so we're seated in a big booth in the bar. what a treat! The place was hopping with families, couples, business groups and ladies like us. If you are looking for a quiet atmosphere, inside dining is not the best, reserve a table outside. The assortment of cocktails and mocktails offered something for everyone to kick off our dinner. The menu options offer something for everyone with a wide array of starters, salads, entrees and sandwiches. I chose to pair the Buffalo shrimp appetizer with sweet potato fries and was delighted with each of them. Everyone loved their selections as well from crab cakes to the prosciutto and pear pizza to huge salads. For a birthday treat, we shared the white chocolate bread pudding with caramel sauce, coconut and vanilla ice cream for the table which came highly recommended and did not disappoint. While plans changed, we had a great with great friends, great food, great service and fun atmosphere. Will be back again soon!

Relatively easy to find, though you do have to hunt a little bit, Flora Room sits behind a nondescript metal door leading down a short hallway to the entrance. Take a long moment to allow your eyes to adjust if you're coming before sunset; this space is DARK. It's also perfect. Once your "night vision" kicks in you're surrounded by a nice bar, numerous bistro-style tables and booths. Candles adorn the tables creating a nice, cozy place to settle in for drinks. Once seated in comfortable chairs at a table, we were quickly greeted and provided with menus. The cocktail selection is relatively "small" but really nicely varied. Prices seemed a tad steep but frankly, given the quality of the drinks I'd say quite worth it. I started out with the Evita, a nice flavorful gin-base cocktail topped with a nice egg white foam. Very tasty. My wife opted for the Tapaculo, with gin, mezcal, pineapple, banana and bitters over ice. Also quite good. There are also bites available from the associated restaurant I can't recall the name of mine but I can say it was delicious. Bread-like bites with a really tasty dipping sauce. To close out the visit I selected Palo, a smoked aged rum cocktail that was really nice and rich. My wife chose the Nahualito with rum, walnut, amontillado and white chocolate. All should be on your radar. Flora Room really fit the bill for a nice, intimate speakeasy-style spot to spend time. Dark and cozy.
