    I cannot believe I am just now trying this place. Where do I start? When I arrived I parked on the street nearby and walked in. I was greeted by the host and she walked me to the table. Our server was David and he was awesome. He knew his stuff and he was so attentive. The restaurant was cutely decorated and I liked the ambiance. The restaurant had brunch specials where you can order 4 sharables and one entrée for $34 and $2 mimosas, belinis or bloody mary. You cannot beat that deal so we got the vegetables, fruit, latkes & house cured salmon, and spiced sugar beignets. All were so good. I really loved the beignets. For our entrées I ordered the penne and day boat shrimp and my friend ordered the steak and cheese eggs. I loved my meal, it was seasoned perfectly. My friend loved her steak and eggs. The mimosas were so good as well and the waiter kept them coming. The bill came to $85 which was a steal. I will definitely be back!

    Great food and impeccable service. Black sea bass and swordfish specials were delicious and the days boat scallop and oysters as appetizers were mighty fine. Creme brulée topped it all off.

    Had a 90th birthday party there Only reason 1 gave 1 star The appetizers were brought out family style and one appetizer a few people did not get so we asked if they can bring out more they did And they charged us for it. They didn’t say we will but we have to charge you for it. After spending all that money on a party seemed they had to charge us for one small appetizer that was not enough for the table. Overall Everything was good would have given 4 stars Unfortunately after 3 weeks no contact from them

    Honestly, I'm disappointed. For the atmosphere, menu, and price I expected exceptional flavors, textures, and overall cuisine. What I got was average. Lack of spices made every dish end up bland, and I swear the dishes we got were reheated. One good thing I got out of this was they definitely put enough gin in my gin and tonic, and the good stuff at that. The service was quick, but they don't seem to have good training for a nice restaurant. Maybe they aren't paid enough since they all looked miserable. This place seems well acknowledged just for the clout. I say they need to step it up if I'm going to dress up and pay big dollars for a meal. My dinner party agreed a McDonalds drive thru would have made the night instead.

    Great place for Sunday Brunch. We were there for the first sitting and pretty much had the place to ourselves for a while. We were seated in tThe Wine Room. It was cozy. I believe can accommodate 8 tables of 4. In our party (8) we had 1 baby and a person with a walker and one with a food allergy.They were able to accommodate everyone. Staff was wonderful, polite and professional. Never had to wait.. Fantastic food, atmosphere and staff.

    Very nice restaurant, with good food. We were seated upstairs in the party room with a group of 60. Entrees offered were salmon, roasted chicken, and parpadalla with mushrooms in a nice brown sauce with short ribs. Bread was warm and fresh, and the salad was tasty. Dessert was small delicious pastries. I'd definitely go back.

    It was our first time there and I was telling my husband, this place greatly exceeded my expectations!! My husband and I dine out weekly and have no problem traveling to get really good food and service. I had the grilled pork chop with mashed potatoes and spinach. My husband had ginger duck. And although I am not a fan of duck, I would eat iit there anytime. We are in New Jersey and have traveled as far as Pittsburgh to get duck the way my husband likes it. He is very particular about his food with good reason, he comes from a family of amazing cooks. Anyway we loved everything from the bread to the dessert and Sangria. The service was excellent from the hostess to our waiter. I would highly recommend this place.Enjoy!😊

    Went on a weekday. However, service was slow and poor. Had to call my server and ask him several times to bring us desert. Food took over 1h to be ready. Portions were minuscule and the prices were up the roof. Everything was Very expensive. Pictures on the website are deceiving. The restaurant is not that fancy-looking at all. Very disappointed. Never coming back. Wasted my time and my money.

    Bottom line: impressed. Fantastic dining experience and cuisine. Gluten line: accommodating. Long line: A little disappointed that I haven't been here earlier. Absolutely delicious cuisine. Ambiance is romantic. Service was attentive but not overbearing. I'd recommend it.

    Service was good. The salmon was great! Nice crispy outside on a tender piece of fish. But the short rib is AMAZING. It was fantastic. If you eat beef, then it is THE entree to order here. Others at the table had the cheese and spinach stuffed chicken, which looked great and apparently tasted great also. However, several people had the short rib, and it was the unanimous star of the show. Duck eggs rolls were also fantastic, and the calamari was perfectly crispy. The octopus salad was the only thing that was mediocre. Literally everything else ranged from good to mind blowing!

    Every morsel was outstanding with a clear focus on food quality, flavor, and attention to detail. The staff makes you feel like you're the most important person in the world. The crab & avocado appetizer is a revelation. The short rib pasta entree and just about anything featuring seafood will leave you speechless. Local or not, make your way to Boulevard Five72. You'll leave dreaming of your next visit.

    We had a private event with a small group in their backroom. The food selection was heavy on carb loaded brunch items (french toast, latkes, pancakes, fruit salad, bagels with lox) as appetizers for our event menu and everything tasted very fresh and delicious. Had the steak with salad and it was cooked (medium) to perfection, and the portion was huge! Yet I prevailed, as always, and made my to desserts, and loved their mini chocolate ganache cakes. I would come back here one day. They are serious with the taste of the food they make. Service was also great, just attentive enough without feeling intrusive. Decor is a bit old and tired, so it's not my taste, but it looks grown up :)

    A French restaurant is good for single, groups and definitely romantic settings. Has in and outdoors seating, weather permitting. Well decorated, clean, and friendly staff. They also do brunch and buffets on Mothers Day. Portions are fair but can be a tad pricey, only reason for the 4 stars. Nice menu and a good mix from French style to seafood to meats. Nice bar area and a good pour, well stocked, and nice wine list.

    Decided to give another local eatery a try, so I ended up here. Nice decor with an upscale feel, service was prompt and attentive. Appetizers came out quickly, my oysters tasted quite fresh, but other seafood in other dishes not so much. My cousin ordered their aged ribeye, not very tasty as well. Drinks were nothing great either. So would I return to this establishment, probably not.

    Food was yummy. On the pricier side for sure but worth it in terms of flavor and portion size. The drink menu was also really interesting and the drinks were delicious. Highly reccomend the lobster roll, the homemade old bay chips alone were enough to make me want to come back.

    Cozy, romantic ambiance with very friendly servers. Food is absolutely amazing. As well as the wine selection. Recommend for a date night for sure!

    We were regular patrons of Blvd 572 before Covid and recently decided we would get take out to see if the quality of the food was the same. We were not disappointed as the roasted chicken and lamb chops were as delicious as ever. We are planning to schedule a Sunday Brunch for the family in the near future.

    First year ever going out for Thanksgiving dinner. I may never cook again!! Portions were large and the food was phenomenal!! We weren't rushed and the service was outstanding.

    Second time here for brunch, and loved it!! The duck confit hash mind blowing. We also loved the French toast and applewood bacon. We will be back. Also can’t wait to come back for dinner.

    The restaurant is easy to find, great location. The food was delicious and the drinks were good as well. Nicely decorated. Service is slow. I had called to get a table for 5. They said only high tops are available, and you know how tight a fit they are. Upon arrival, they had the following 1) a private party, and 2) if they had 15 other people there if that. it wasn't a lot. Plenty of seating available from the start of our brunch to the end, so they lied to me about being booked. The waiter was slow in responding as far as ordering food a second round of drinks. And on top of it, it's EXPENSIVE

    The perfect brunch spot around! Most places I've been to in the area are overpriced and with limited options. The "family style" selection here (pick 4 dishes to share + 1 entree per person) had the perfect portions and everything was absolutely delicious. Plus you cannot beat $3 mimosas. I wish more places would do brunch this way!

  • 5/5 frank k. 1 year ago on Google
    We absolutely LOVE it here and have been Coming for years. We travel quite far to dine at Boulevard and have introduced many friends to the restaurant. Edwin is amazing. Blanca makes a fantastic drink, and of course Allison & Scott are wonderful. I simply Can’t wrap my head around some of the reviews I’ve read.

  • 5/5 Jessica M. 1 year ago on Google
