    Boulevard American Bistro on Veterans is one of my favorite dining options in Metairie. The bar is my go-to spot -- perfect for relaxing with a great cocktail and a delicious bite to eat. The food is always consistent, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Service is always great and bartenders and very attentive and personable. The ambiance is warm and inviting, and the daily specials and happy hour deals are always worth checking out. Wednesday's half-off bottles of wine is definitely a highlight and a great mid-week treat. Check out the menu options and happy hour!

    The French Dip
    Jacqui bright R.

    I admit it--New Orleanians tend to snub chain restaurants. Why go to a popular national Italian spot when we have Vincent's, Miss Irene's, and so many local gems? That said, The Boulevard on Veterans Blvd consistently delivers on its promise of excellent service, delicious food, and great ambience. Our server, Lena, was friendly, patient, efficient, and fun-loving--everything you want in a great dining experience. My girlfriends ordered a bottle of wine (wines are half off on Wednesdays!), and we started with the smoked salmon appetizer, which was served perfectly. For our entrées, two of us ordered the French Dip--thin-sliced prime rib on ciabatta with au jus. Very good! One girlfriend opted for a fresh, tasty salad, and another went with the crab cakes ... and let me tell you, the crab cakes brought the house down. They're on the pricier side, but absolutely worth every bite.

    Half Rack Barbecue Ribs*

    The server was nice. The ribs were good. But not in a really smoky grilled way. It's like high quality Applebees. It does the job it set out to do. I'd go again if I had a picky eater to satisfy. But it did seem like chain restaurant food overall.

    Grilled Chicken Sandwich

    I ended up getting the grilled chicken sandwich with the loaded mashed potatoes and it was amazing ! The service when picking up my food was amazing ! The ambiance in the inside was very beautiful.

    Boulevard Oysters

    This was my first time at this location. I was attending my friend's birthday celebration. We accidentally entered the wrong area, because it was being held in the new banquet area. Which was formally the market area for pick up orders. But it was not a problem. My cousin and I were escorted by a very kind host directly to the room through the restaurant. The decor in the banquet room was nice. The room is a good size we had a party of 10. Our waitress Lala was awesome. She was very patient and kind. We all ordered drinks mostly lemon drops and French 65's . They all were delicious. I was not hungry for an entree. So I had the boulevard oysters appetizer. My favorite and it did not disappoint. My friend had the spinach dip, although it did not come with chips it came with bread which I thought was different but the bread was good actually goes well with the oysters. Next time I'll have to add some bread to my appetizer. Everyone enjoyed their meals. We had our own little private party and had a blast. Good to know that the banquet room is a nice area to celebrate with friends or family . I'm sure I'll be back.

    Amazing Seared Ahi Tuna Salad, nearly finished. So good.

    What a great experience! I was looking for a place in Metairie still serving at 9:30 pm, but also nice atmosphere and quality food. This place was perfect. I had a friendly greeting upon entering. Dined at the bar. Even though the restaurant was closing at 10 pm, the wait staff were friendly and informative about everything on the menu. I went with the seared Ahi tuna salad. Superb! Crisp lettuce, fresh mango and avocado, tangy sweet ginger vinaigrette with a mustard base. The seared tuna had the smell of the wood fire grill with a touch of soy. Paired this with a glass of Malbec. Pretty affordable for such nice food and service. A great place to come to anytime but glad it was a later night option.

    Hamburger
    Paul C.

    Boulevard American Bistro in Metairie offers solid American classics in a polished setting. The spinach and artichoke dip is rich and flavorful, paired with crisp tortilla chips. The hamburger is a well-executed classic--juicy, fresh, and satisfying. Reliable service and a welcoming atmosphere make it a great go-to spot.

    01.2024 menu

    Similar menu to Houston's restaurant that it replaced. Not quite as well flavored or excellent service as it's competitor but good enough if you don't want to take a drive Uptown. They offer online reservations at your convenience, so it's a plus. The restaurant was dimmed and had quite an old, sour smell the day we went. I'm assuming it's the flooring and/or tables after cleaning up. It was quite offsetting but maybe I have a more sensitive sense of smell compared to my group. Sucked it right up and carried on. Drinks and appetizers came out quickly, and entrees came shortly after. We wish our server paced out our meals so we could've enjoyed our appetizers more but oh well. My guests had the ribeyes, and they said they were cooked to perfection. My favorite were the crab cakes. That's one thing their competitor doesn't offer anymore, and this dish would be the main reason I'd return to this restaurant. Plentiful amount of crabmeat with a nice crust. Delish! I almost forgot to mention. They do have a happy hour menu from Monday through Friday, 3-6 PM.

I was in charge of reservations and apparently had not clicked the final confirmation online. As a result, there was, of course, no reservation. We were very disappointed, and I felt horrible; however, we decided to stay and order our own dinner. What happened next was unbelievable! The manager, Randy, and his assistant manager treated us like royalty. We were served each of the different spritzes and even had a taste of each course served at the pairing dinner we had been so looking forward to. The food was incredible. The service was on par with a Brennan-family restaurant. And what started as a disappointing evening turned into a very fun night! Thank you, Randy!!

    Martine's is a fun little cocktail dive bar in Old Metairie…read more Products: Duh-ranks, yo! They have a pretty good wine and beer selection, but they shine on their signature cocktails, of which there are so many that I could not reasonably list here, some of which rotate out regularly to keep variety up. Everything, and I mean *everything*, is reasonably priced, if not outright cheap. (5 stars) Service: Usually just a single bartender, except during shift changes, but the place is small enough, that is more than enough. All the 'tenders are friendly and efficient. (5 stars) Facilities: Martine's is located in a strip mall along Metairie Road. It's easily accessible from the Bonnebel exit off I-10. Signage is ample, but you have to be familiar with the turns along the street to be prepared to find it. There is some parking out front, and, as one goes to bars mainly at night, there isn't any competition for space then. There is a pool table, video poker, and what looks to be a non-functioning/unplugged pinball machine (never asked about it). The inside is smallish, and can probably hold about 50 people seated, including tables and bar stools. There is also outside seating available. It's clean, but, for whatever reason, the cigarette smoke lingers in the place. The management is aware and tries to work with customers on this angle. The decor is appropriate, with a saloon feel to it. (4 stars) Bonus 1: free pizza weeknights Bonus 2: free wings on Wednesday with Trivia Overall: The only things I dislike about this place are that it isn't walking distance from my place and the heavy cigarette smoke that makes my eyes burn. Check it out, especially if you like trivia (4 stars)
