    Fish & Chips
    Angelina C.

    Went here on an unsuspecting busy and poppin Wednesday evening! We sat by a very lovely window and view of the patio area. The food portions were huge and definitely a bang for your buck! I got the fish and chips! They were great. Our server was very friendly and we had no issues during dinner. Would come back to BLVD again :)

    Today was... Salmon again. Ordered the mango salmon and friend Pervej ordered a burger. He said it was great. I also enjoyed mine. Quite filling. I would next time ask not to have the crunchy calorie dense stuff on it.

    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
    Mary V.

    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.

    8 oz. Filet Mignon with béarnaise sauce

    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

    $6 happy hour wedge salad is

    Happy hour is amazing at BLVD!!! The $10 Fish & Chips is actually a meal in its self! The wedge salad is $6 and has all of the ingredients found in the steak wedge but it obviously doesn't include the steak but OMG the bacon and bleu cheese make it a great $6 happy hour choice!

    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.

    Hot towels brought to the table twice!

    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.

Plenty of seating although it seemed like a lot of the tables were very close to each other so not much privacy unless you are in a booth. Loved the individual bathroom stalls, very clean and private. The food was amazing!! We didn't know what to expect here but the food was cooked to perfection, shoutout to the chef for making the noodles Al dente, especially the rice noodles. Being Asian I know how hard it can be to get the right texture for rice noodles but they were perfect! Flavors were incredible. Portions were plentiful, we shared two entrees and two apps between 4 girls and we had leftovers and we were all starving too. Love the vibes here, definitely feels more upscale yet casual. Drinks looked really good too but we did not want to day drink this time.

    We really wanted to give Grackle another chance, but after two visits, I don't think we'll be back…read more Our first visit was a few months after they opened. My husband and I brought our two young kids on a random afternoon around 2-3pm. We weren't dressed up, but we weren't dressed inappropriately or overly casual either. The service was honestly some of the worst we've experienced -- lots of attitude, and we left feeling like we weren't exactly the type of guests they wanted there. Keot walking past us when we would call someon they wouldnt come. The food was mediocre and so unmemorable that, a year or so later, I couldn't even tell you what we ordered. The one thing we did enjoy was trying the different sauces. Enough time had passed that we decided to give it another shot. This time we went around 4pm on a Thursday and dressed up a little more. Right away, the host seemed annoyed that we didn't have a reservation, even though it was early and there were still plenty of empty tables. It was an odd way to start the experience. Thankfully, our server this time was wonderful friendly, helpful, and a complete change from our first visit. The food runners were also attentive. Unfortunately, the food itself was the biggest disappointment. The gochujang wings barely tasted like gochujang. There were so many other flavors going on that the gochujang seemed completely masked, and the wings weren't crispy at all. One of the kids' chicken tenders came out cut in half, which I'm assuming was to check that it was cooked through. Not necessarily a huge deal, but it was strange presentation. My husband and I both ordered the Caribbean chicken sandwich, and neither of us enjoyed it. It was dry, didn't have nearly enough sauce, and the pieces of slaw were way too large for the sandwich. I paid for extra sauces that never came, and my husband received the wrong sauce. The fries were good, and the service at the table was much better this time, but that was about it. After two visits at very different times, we've had essentially the same takeaway: Grackle has a cool concept and the sauces are fun, but the food just hasn't lived up to what we expected for the price. Our second experience also confirmed that our disappointing first visit wasn't just opening-month growing pains. I really wanted to like this place, especially enough to come back after a poor first experience, but unfortunately two tries was enough for us.

    Wow. Spectacularly awful. If you like cold (and I mean COLD)…read morefood and pretentiousness this is the place for you. Now I will say the Tomato toast and the cherry sour drink was good. However, it started going downhill when a dish was brought out by a runner before any of the other dishes and was set on our table without silverware. She left without bringing silverware and it would be a full 5 minutes before our server was able to be flagged down to get us silverware. We noted that this dish needed to be refired and brought out with the remaining dishes. After 15 minutes more the rest if the meal came out, and you guessed it, the original "needs to be refired" dish came out 5 minutes later. My wife's pasta was cold. Not lukewarm. Cold. Think I just opened a can of chef boyardee's and poured on a plate cold. It was disgusting. Oh and the "refired spaghetti" (buttered noodles) was also cold. The chicken parm (which their version is deep fried chicken) was warm but unseasoned and the breading was oil sogged because the frying oil was clearly not hot enough. This place gets 1 star. My favorite part was when the runner was doing her makeup in a mirror behind the hostess stand in the middle of the dining room. At a price of $183 for two for pasta this place needs to rethink their workers, their menu, and how they are going to keep attracting people. Shut down for three weeks and learn how to run your restaurant! That the Strib gave these guys a glowing review is beyond me. Very emperor's new clothes.

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. Savory cocktails and friendly service will stand out and make you want to return. I know we'll seek it out if we return to Minneapolis again. I hope so.

I enjoyed the meditteránea. I'll very likely be back! What a neat spot.
