Great find along the interstate! Had the lobster roll and my gal had the mahi mahi...both were a good value!...and CJ the bartender went above and beyond to get this old farm boy my beverage of choice!! read more

Excellent food and service. I had the blackened walleye and my husband had the ahi tuna. Both were excellent beyond expectations of a bar and grill. Highly recommend. read more

We stopped here on the way home during a road trip for lunch. Online It looked like a casual sports bar, but it's actually a pretty upscale place with a fancy bar. They had a lot of fun entree options, but It was lunch, so we just decided to split a few appetizers. We got the beef nachos and breaded mushrooms. The breaded mushrooms were actually really good, good quality of mushrooms (portobello), big, and homemade breading. The nachos were plentiful, but just okay. The chips were definitely not homemade and the beef was just a bit dry, I've definitely had better, but it was loaded with a nice amount of toppings and the salsa was good. Both were tons of food for us to split and be full to continue our journey home. Our server was attentive and even offered to accommodate my friends' light diet request despite us not going that route. read more

Stopped here on our way to Cedar Rapids, Iowa. It was easy to get to from the highway with ample parking. It's a restaurant next to a hotel. There was a mix of people there celebrating an event, couples having dinner, and a single guy chatting with a handful of tables (we were never able to determine if he actually knew those people or not). We were able to be seated right away and service was pretty quick. We ordered the Brussel sprouts, chicken wings, and hot honey pepperoni flatbread. All were really delicious. The flatbread could have had a little more spice, but overall a delicious meal. This was plenty of food for two people and enough to take some leftovers with us. It was worth a stop on our trip. read more

stopped on our way north. out of French fries but subbed another side. I had the Greek salmon and it was delicious. we were there around 2pm and was not disappointed. read more

Mushroom Risotto $19 It was very good would order it again. Lobster Roll $26 It wasn't bad. The sauce was very thin and drippy runny. It tasted fine but it completely over powered the lobster. There was no lobster flavor at all, so whats the point? I wouldn't order it again. Very nice looking place. Everything appeared clean. Booth seats were very uncomfortable. Too low, too far from table, not enough cushion. Sitting forward as I had to to reach, had the frame of the seat digging into my legs. I'm not short. But they were pretty. Our waiter was wonderful. read more

The food was delicious. Extreme attention to food detail from the double toasted bun to the apple slaw to the amazing fish filet made this an exceptional lunch. The server explained all items thoroughly and refreshed our beverages too. Very unique decor and beautiful bar. If you are traveling through it is seconds from the freeway. If you are local please support this unique and delicious restaurant. read more

We called in for dinner while passing through town. The food here is to die for. The calamari was melt in your mouth fresh (so good we had to order a second round), salmon with mango salsa, jambalaya pasta and rib eye steak were all flavourful and delicious. Great service too. Can't wait to go back! read more

Great place for lunch or dinner. Good service and trendy menu items. We've been here a few times on our visits to the area and it never disappoints. read more

Hello, The food was okay but that was the best for what the area offered. Too much pricing for the area, but cheap for the "tourists" that stop . Gent kept comparing drinks amongst metro areas compared to their food. Not the same. read more

Was given a 20-25 minute online wait time. Waited 55 minutes. When I finally got someone to look at me, I asked to be refunded and was met with anger and was told they had a 20 person table and they couldn't control it. Totally understand that, but please update and be able to change the online order wait times. Also, when I was refunded I was told they didn't even have the stuff to make my order, which okay! But could you let me know so I can leave and get something else? Won't be coming back. read more

Food was delicious, went for father's day. Clean plates all around. Got the tuna tower, blackened walleye, Illyrian burger, and western burger. All very good choices with reasonable pricing. read more

this food. boring. hockey puck burgers. cold tacos. Go somewhere else. Cook at home. clear Lake deserves better.

We walked in, were seated promptly, and a server dropped menus on the table without saying a word. After that, we sat for over 15 minutes without anyone acknowledging us, offering drinks, or even checking in. During that time, two servers walked past us multiple times while bussing tables and attending to other tasks, despite the restaurant not appearing busy.We eventually left because it was clear we weren't going to be served.I don't know why we were ignored. Maybe it was simply poor service, but as an obvious lesbian couple dining with a man who has long hair, it certainly left us wondering whether we were being treated differently. I sincerely hope that wasn't the case, but regardless of the reason, no guests should be left sitting without even a greeting or a drink order.Very disappointing experience, and unfortunately not one I can recommend. read more

Open Mondays, which is becoming a rarity. Good service and food. Plenty of parking nearby for big trucks.

We arrived shortly before closing but the service was still exceptional, the ENTIRE service team was friendly, the food was wonderful. Can't wait to return someday. read more

Love the Brussels sprouts wife loves the mango salsa salmon. I had a good steak cooked perfectly. Always have had good service. It's has a comfortable feel. read more

I do not recommend the Ribeye. Wafer thin and poorly seasoned. No manager present to make a decision regarding dissatisfaction. read more

So I am really torn on this restaurant. Food was excellent and the design is great. Looks like it could be a very nice restaurant. I had the steak bites and fries. With the garlic it had kind of an Asian accent to it. I also had mushrooms with it and fries. This is where it gets a little odd. They offer two types of steaks and do not offer a baked or mashed potato. Entrees are a la carte which is fine but sides are only included in their sandwiches. There was also a lot of clutter which (like an Allen wrench set) sitting at the hostess stand an some other random clutter which shows absence of a manager or owner (Definitely nobody on the floor) that was management. Secondly, I do not understand the pool tables. Based on everything else they are completely out of place and take up valuable seating. They just did not belong. This restaurant needs to figure what they want to be. The 3rd weird thing was a server either just got off work or getting ready to work, laying in a booth and the other two servers kept going over to talk to her. Adult workers should not be laying down in a booth at all, let alone during the dinner crowd. Maybe it was the manager which might explain some things. None of those oddities affected my personal dinner but if this place wants to survive they need management/ownership to be present. Overall this place is in between with an identity crisis. Could be a great place. read more

This is the best surprise I had when it comes to fine dining in the area. It caters to a coupleof notches above what tourists would normally expect from the area. Prices are in line to the quality and preparation. Will be back read more

Very nice place. Very nice waitress. Food LOOKED great, but didn't taste great. Fish sandwich was pry overcooked and kind of hard to chew. Not much flavor. Husband had fish alone, not impressed either. Sadly the waitress recommended this to. 4 other customers there, so not busy at all. I had 2 sodas, both times ice was like melted already floating on top. He said the iced tea you could just taste the chlorinated water over the tea flavor. Sorry. But to many other places we'd rather go back to. I gave it a 3 because of nice place & nice waitress. read more

Good food and friendly staff. I prefer food not cooked in seed oils so I requested my meal be cooked with butter. They not only accommodated my request but the next time I visited, several months later, they remembered my preferences. read more

Wonderful service, very friendly and personable. We enjoyed the brussel sprouts appetizer and shared the flat bread. My old fashioned was spot on and the wine my wife had white wine from New Zealand that was delicious. Wonderful relaxing atmosphere! We'll be back. read more

What a great place! The decor was very nice and modern. Very clean restrooms. Our host/waiter was delightful. Many options on the menu. Flatbreads were delicious, very moist and full of the toppings. Recommend the western burger and you absolutely must try the truffle Parmesan fries. Can't wait until we travel back this way again! read more

Had the pasta special and it was outstanding. Friendly wait staff, they even took time to ask where we came in from. Highly recommend. read more

Ordered the fish and chips with a side of breaded mushrooms -- both were outstanding. The fish was crispy and tender, perfectly seasoned, and the mushrooms were amazing with a great crunch. Everything arrived hot and fresh. Highly recommend! read more

The food is amazing. I ordered the fish and chips. It has a large portion of perfectly breaded walleye. The other four people in my party all had hamburgers. The portions here were huge and delicious. The service was outstanding. The only confusion was the pool tables. The ambience and decor seem upscale, but I was not sure if this was American, Greek, or something else. Nevertheless the food was delicious. read more

nice atmosphere in a fairly new restaurant service was fine the food can def improve i had walleye & it was so salty that it was inedible , the asparagus with it was salty & oily and also inedible i was given enough rice for 3 or 4 people, such a waste ! (no wonder people in IA are heavy ) my BF had a burger which was good , but again way too salty ! this is a common problem I have found in most MC restaurants .... ugh prices are very reasonable so guess for MC this is ok read more

Enjoyed a really remarkably good meal at the boulevard this weekend! The jambalaya and blackened walleye along with coconut shrimp for a starter were big winners. Our top-notch waiter was extraordinary in every way. Delightful personality, very ( but not overly) attentive, offered lots of good recommendations and he was spot on with each one. I really wish I'd caught his name; he deserves a big shout-out. As we finished up, the owner (Gent) stopped by our table and we had a lovely conversation. He truly cares about his diners' satisfaction. Whatever is happening in The Boulevard kitchen is magic! The place may look a little like a sports bar when you walk in, but the dining experience is anything but that. We will return! read more

There Burgers are outstanding. The service is Always very good. The bar is lovely. 3 seperate. Rooms in which to dine , each different and very nice. read more

We really love this restaurant. They serve a decent variety of foods. The staff are friendly and helpful. The manager / owner of the restaurant always stops by the table to say hello which I think is wonderful. They have a variety of prices some of them are steep others are very reasonably priced and we always have a great meal there. They are a very busy restaurant, but we've always gotten in within a reasonable time. I highly recommend going there. read more

Service was good, staff was friendly. clean. Food was "okay". Would not order the steak bites again, rhey reminded me stew meat in broth over spiced. Fish and chips were good. Flat breads were alright. Did not try their cocktails, menu was busy trying to fuse Greek, Asian, American, and Mexican. read more

Ordered the ribeye one night and fish and chips the next night. Both dishes were excellent. One of the best restaurants in Clear Lake and Mason City. I would highly recommend it. read more

Ate here when I was in town with my family. Food was delicious and a nice variety. We had quick service but the restaurant was not busy at the time. I loved the modern bar with beautiful lighting. Wide open and good lighting. Next to a hotel and right off the interstate. Wheelchair accessible. Plenty of parking too. read more

Extremely happy with this place. We were just looking for some food on our trip and we did not expect to get a good meal right off the highway. We were definitely wrong. I would definitely make an effort to come here instead of it just being a pit stop on a road trip. Everyone was super nice and even had a bit of an accent that I liked. There were two places for seating along with a bar and a pool table area in the middle. Everything also looked super clean and new. read more

Discovered Boulevard driving to Minneapolis. Had no expectations. Was blown away by the blackened walleye & house salad with homemade white balsamic. Incredible. Bloody Mary was fine, fair pour. 12 taps! Typical garage door restaurant, TVs with sports, pool tables. Clean. But.... the food!! read more

This has quickly become my favorite place in the Clear Lake / Mason City area! Everything I've had here is fantastic -- best fish and chips I've ever had, but I come here specifically for the mango-kissed salmon. Always excellent service -- even when they're short-staffed, the owner jumps in and starts helping take orders and serving! read more

4 of us had the great decision to choose this for lunch. Walking in, the atmosphere is beautiful, the bar very well appointed. The service was attentive and great. The drinks were also high-quality and impressive. The food was something as if we were in a much larger city and definitely five star quality. Attention to detail on every delivered dish was definite a sign of a well trained and experienced chef. Highly recommend The Boulevard! read more
