There's a camaraderie in the room that invites you to slow down, connect, and truly experience both the conversation and the food. Everything feels considered. My best friend and I each ordered the prix fixe menu, and it was a journey from start to finish. I began with the Spicy Corn & Coconut Soup--honestly, unforgettable. The crispy shallots added just the right amount of texture against the velvety base, and each spoonful layered flavor in a way that felt both comforting and elevated. For my main, I had the kichuri, and Chef Alex Guzman absolutely shines here. He is a star--full stop. There's a clarity and confidence in his cooking that you can taste. The cilantro chutney was perfection, and the way the mint lingers alongside the spice... it's the kind of balance that only comes from someone who truly understands their craft. You can feel his care in every bite. I ended with the key lime pie, and all I can say is thank you. The whipped cream was fresh and airy, the lime zest bright without overpowering, and the crust tied everything together beautifully. It felt like a thoughtful, intentional close to an already incredible meal. I highly recommend starting with the guava mocktail, then pairing your main with the fig mocktail--both are perfectly crafted and complement the dishes so well. Also, sit at the bar. Let Dan guide you through the experience. Trust his recommendations--you will not be steered wrong. He elevates the entire evening. And the playlist? Y'all really did that.

I made reservations for 5:30 and they wont seat you if all your party isn't there. They have a few stools by door or bar if you want to wait. The bar was packed. I wanted to try happy hour but it was only offered at the bar and with no one getting up we sat at a booth. I will say if I come back I'd have to come earlier to get a seat perhaps. The food was good. I got the southern fried dinner and a frose. They were good. The server was nice and the place was clean. No complaints. I'd come back if im in the area.

All I can say is that I wish there were a bit more vegan options, but...BLVD did not just prepare a meal...they offered an experience. For that, I am most grateful.

I ordered the Coconut Fish Sandwich ($28), and my friend had the Smoked Salmon Benedict ($27). The coconut-battered basa was crispy and flavorful, with a subtle sweetness that really worked well. My friend finished every bite of her Benedict, so I'd say that was a hit too. Great food, lively atmosphere, and another wonderful visit.

Me and my partner split the double cheesecake smash burger - it was amazing! Golden brioche with a saucey, chessey interior without losing the delicious patties. It was like an elevated Big Mac. Highly recommend. Was able to chill at the bar and watch the Knicks game - the whole time. The energy was at a high. If you are going for a major sporting game, get there early. The staff was very kind and helpful. A bit of upselling but not the end of the world. Definitely add to your list if you are in West Harlem if you want a fun, elevated cocktail with a whimsical food menu to match. This is your place.

She also had the Arnold Palmer, which was great. Comes with fries which were good. I had the oxtail, with a side of garlic mash and Mac n cheese. Yes!

My drink, sexy sangria was delicious, strong and the service was A1, Brian was great and so was the server. Sampled the hot sauce, very good. My one critique of the establishment, smelled a little like wet mop. But the playlist was bumping and overall great vibes, love the art on the walls.

I highly recommend making a reservation. The restaurant is small and very crowded, and we overheard…read morea walk-in wait time of about two and a half hours. The space and volume seemed to overwhelm the staff at times. Service was friendly and welcoming but also frazzled and disorganized. We never received our appetizer until we reminded them, and our drinks (sweet tea and lemonade) also had to be requested again after a very long wait. To their credit, they did pack up the crab cake appetizer to go and removed it from the bill, which we appreciated. The fried chicken, mac and cheese, and yams were all served on top of each other. If you dont like for your food to touch, this place will be a nightmare for you. I ordered fried catfish, collard greens and potato salad. The fried catfish was served swimming in collard green juice (there's a picture of it). It was also surprising that you only get one piece of catfish, which felt underwhelming for the price, especially since it was soggy. The potato salad was served in a small separate bowl, which is typical in many Southern restaurants for ALL side dishes. The mac and cheese had good flavor but the cheese wasn't fully melted. The yams were dry and not very sweet despite the menu description. The collard greens were on the sweeter side, which may work for some but wasn't my preference. The potato salad the only thing that was solid. Overall, it felt overpriced for the portion sizes and execution. The bartender seemed very skilled, and the drinks we saw being made looked great, though we didn't order any. After the long wait and missing appetizer, we skipped dessert and went elsewhere. The bathroom also needed attention and was not well maintained AT ALL! Ew The restaurant is very loud which didn't bother me at all but an FYI. It is also handicapped accessible and kid friendly. I really wanted to love the experience, but it fell below expectations in terms of service, cleanliness, and value. I might give them another try but no time soon.
