So me and the Mister were once again tempted to try something based on a IG post. The store was clean, and smelled fresh for a fish restaurant. The process was efficient. Now for the items: Fish: 5 stars - fresh, seasoned and cooked well Hush puppies: 4 stars - light seasoning Macaroni salad- no stars Greens: 3 stars - decent taste Fries: 4 stars - needed salt Peach Cobbler: negative 5 stars. Dough was thick, hard and bland. No cinnamon in sight. Will not buy again The 7 piece fish meal was good for two people. The included sides are only enough for 2. The price point was good. The was adequate parking on cutting blvd Will be back read more

They have brought this lady back who knows nothing about frying fish, and I should have turned around when I saw her walk from the back. When I say fry my fish and prawns crispy I mean give it a crunch. As long as she cooks I will never stop by there again. Just ain't Merida's Corner! Straight out of Richmond, Shobrob read more

This location changed from Boulevard to McDonald Avenue and I live two houses down from their new spot. I went to check it out and see what their menu is like and try their food. Their menu is pretty simple and little pricey. I got their fried tilapia with hush puppies. Nothing really special in terms of flavor, but also not bad. The eastern European looking lady ( who probably is neurodivergent or something...) that attended me was quite rude, and when I asked about certain items she was reluctant to explain, and sometimes would pause and not really give any description of some plates. In reflection I tried to forgive her weird behavior, but when I saw that she was way nicer and performative to Afro American clientele (I'm latina), i knew then that I wouldn't return and support their business. Overall, the food's OK and if you're OK with mediocre customer service you should definitely go. :) read more

Ordered (2) 15 piece prawn dinners and a 7 piece snapper dinner. The prawns were perfectly fried, and nice and spicy. They almost don't taste fried. Not greasy at all. The snapper were like nuggets as opposed to pieces - smaller than any snapper pieces I've ever had. They were also dry and a bit overcooked. Two sides were provided with each dinner. The sides are very small and our selection consisted of crinkle cut fries, macaroni salad, potato salad (x2), cole slaw, and yams (x2). The fries were good especially since they had to be reheated in the microwave. Both salads had a bit too much mayonnaise for me. Love the yams though! Our order costs $111. A debit card machine receipt was provided but there was no actual itemized store receipt. I wish there was because I prefer knowing the per item costs. The lady working the front counter was efficient and kind. read more

This is the best seafood eatery in Richmond! They have been around for so many years and the quality and taste of the food has never failed me. Yummy tasting snapper, sole, prawns and so much more! Definitely a must try if you haven't already!! read more

I remember the first owners of that place I remember the second owners who I was very good friends with our families grew up together. The people who have it now are the third owners. It was very decent when they took over, but now the quality of the taste of the food Has declined. I think I will not be eating it again, unless someone tells me that it has changed. read more

Came to Boulevard Fish on my lunch break guy. I've been living in the area for over 10 years and never had one in there until I saw somebody on TikTok post about them so I tried their snapper fish sandwich is not your traditional fish sandwich they give you like four pieces of fish and two slices of bread, tartar sauce, ketchup, hot sauce, but the fish was fried just right light and crispy. It was seasoning really well you definitely get more than one fish sandwich out of the meal I'll definitely go again. I wanna try a couple more things, but I have their side of yams it definitely giving canyons but when you hungry, I ate them, but I would buy yams for the sides again. read more

I will travel for Boulevard fish. I wish their sides were better. For the most part they get it right. Check your order before you leave. read more

Good food, great hospitality. A great place to grab a bite. I get mine to go. I prefer to enjoy it at home. The dessert are alright but not like mom's. The portions are a good amount for your money. Side that are my go to greens and yams. read more

Ordered catfish dinner and it comes with two sides, seasoned well and the mustard greens were good ... I had yams but I should've gotten two sides of mustard greens. I'll revisit read more

I ordered catfish, it was okay and small portions. I won't be going back anytime soon.

Opening time 11am but didn't open until 11:15am. It's was a long wait for the food. I had snapper & fries. It was good.

It was not the fault of the restaurant, but there was an online ordering portal attached to the website and it is not associated with the restaurant. They only take in person or phone orders. BE CAREFUL out there! read more

The fish is delicious. However, depending on how you individually like your fish fried, you need to specify either a crispy fry or a light fry. Because we like a crispy and usually do not specify. However, on one occasion, it was fried lightly. So, depending on who the cook is, you need to specify if you want it fried in a particular manner. read more

This was my first time here, me and a friend were in Richmond for an appt. I had the prawn sandwich and he had the catfish sandwich. We enjoyed both, fries just needed a lil more seasoning but we still enjoyed them. read more

Boulevard Fish & Barbeque - It was the prawn sandwich and fries but clearly, I enjoyed it - Seafood Near Me - Richmond, California

So I live in the area and I never thought to visit as the exterior of the building combined with the location isn't very inviting. This is definitely a pick up and go home to eat. But the service was good. The food was hot and delicious. Portions were good as well. Parking isn't bad as folks come and go. It's on a main street so that can be challenging. But I love to support local business, so we will be back. read more

The fish was decent, the portions are small and the lady taking orders isn't that welcoming

The fish and prawns are consistent. You can even request it spicy. Fries and hush puppies are good too although a little small. My local go to when I don't feel like frying fish. read more

Always fresh and hot. I've been coming to boulevards for years and they never disappoint!!!

I have been going here for years and the fish is always fresh. If you order it spicy it is not overwhelming just the right amount of spice. The French fries are also really good as are their other sides. Definitely a must try. Only issue is if you get stuck waiting for a train, not their fault but it can be frustrating. read more

I ordered the fish dinner, catfish and sole. The fish was fresh,hot, and seasoned to profession. For my two side I got potato salad and hush puppies. I enjoyed every bite. I will definitely be ordering again. read more

Boulevard Fish & Barbeque - a trash can with food in it - Seafood Near Me - Richmond, California

Have you ever seen the Netflix series "House of Cards?" Remember the BBQ joint where Francis Underwood would eat at? Well, I felt like that kind of vibe here. The food is good but the ambiance, not the best. I mean, the guy taking our order and serving the food is like behind bars, probably to keep himself safe. But as for the food, it was all good. We got the five piece combo meal with two sides. To clarify, we got five fried pieces of red snapper and five fried pieces of prawns. The snapper was a little fishy but the prawns were mighty good! The fried batter on them suckers was delish! The two sides we got were the hush puppies and the mustard greens. The mustard greens were tasty. Ya know, I would like to come back to this place because the food is good, but because of the location, I probably won't. read more

I Ordered a chicken sandwich but found out it's just 4 Pieces of chicken with a side of bread. Smelt good but lost my appetite when I realize my chicken was half cooked . (Most likely due to not properly defrosting). Due to my raw chicken I thought I would atleast finish my macaroni salad and it taste like that one dish no one at the cook out eats . Was my first and last time coming . read more

Boulevard Fish & Barbeque - Disgusting - Seafood Near Me - Richmond, California

The prices are deceiving. Yelp shows one thing and when you order it's almost a $10 difference and just like someone said earlier, I got the same uncaring response, as if she didn't care that the prices reflected on Yelp were a large difference in price. She seemed not to care. Poor service in my opinion. Will not get my business anymore. What A Rip Off! Bad business. read more

Can't even rate -5 star. Ordered Cat fish , fries , mozzarella sticks , banana pudding and a coke. The fish was potato chip thin. And no flavor. Was too far away to return it. So I tossed my entire meal. Will never return . Won't recommend and will tell all my friends not to patronize this establishment. read more

Boulevard Fish & Barbeque - Large Sole and Prawn combo. - Seafood Near Me - Richmond, California

My first thought was why didn't I get the 7 piece dinner instead. I ordered the catfish sandwich. It isn't a sandwich. You get 4 pcs of fish and two slices of bread and a side dish. Batter was perfectly done. After I finished I wanted to walk back around and order more. I'll be back! I hope the fried chicken is as good as the fish. I'll update everyone when I try it. read more

The fish is ok. The service is ok. The ambiance is awful. Get in get out as fast as possible. Take out service only. The place is dark and prison like with iron gate in front of the server. read more

I have been coming here for years. I normally call in my order so I can have it ready by time I arrive (I don't like staying around that area for too long). There are some arcade games inside. MAJOR thumbs up for having a Tekken arcade game. Tekken is life. At any rate, the fries are amazing. The fish (sole) is light and they give you such huge quantities of it, that you are stuffed. The shrimp is amazing. The batter alone is flavorful. Also, if you're into hush puppies, this is the place to go. About $15 you can definitely get your grub on. However, for $20, you're feasting. You WILL have left overs as well. Which is fine. The food is even better the next day. Pro tip: heat it all up in the oven. It comes out crispy and crunchy. They also give you a huge bag full of tarter sauce, hot sauce, napkins, and ketchup. read more

I always eat here and normally it's bomb but on my last visit I was on the toilet something terrible!!! I was mad because I spent 23 bucks just to have diarrhea. I'm cool if I want some fish and prawns I will make it myself read more

It bothers me to leave this review because not only did I have a favorable impression of this restaurant and its owner prior to today, he actually accused me of trying to "blackmail" him of two fish sandwiches. I went in to pick up a to-go order. The lady at the counter was wearing a mask. The owner was out back of the restaurant arguing with a former employee, neither he nor the former employee were wearing a mask. He then proceeded to return to the fryer (without a mask) and when I said "Are you not wearing a mask?" (twice, loudly) his worker said "Yes, we wear masks!" Only then did he put his mask on. And he also never washed his hands after arguing outside with the maskless employee (without his mask). I got home and wasn't comfortable eating the food which he clearly is not taking the County nor State Covid 19 guidelines seriously. I called back and said that I would like a refund, otherwise I will call the health department. He said "you're blackmailing me." I said, "no I don't have time to leave my job again." For the record, the owner admitted that he was not wearing a mask in his close interaction with the maskless former employee, but "things happen." Alas, here I am at Yelp. read more
