1st Visit = Last Visit 1. "Instant Pudding" Banana Pudding, horrible for us Southern Dessert Connoisseurs. I gave mine away to my next door neighbor's kid. 2. "Bland Fried Fish" No signature seasoning/no seasoning at all. If one needs to douse their seafood in Catsup, Tarter Sauce or Hot Sauce, PLUS wrap it in bread, then it leaves a lot to be desired. 3. "Fishy Tasting Prawns". Definitely NOT fresh! Tossed them in the trash. Lastly, no barbecue sold here! LASTLY: This is NOT a Black Owned Business!! read more

Had a co-worker share her fried fish and oysters with me. Oh my goodness. As soon as I bit the fish... it was like a bitting into a fried cloud of fish. I'm going there as soon as I get off. Impressed from the first bite to the last. read more

I am completely thrown off by the rating of this location. Called in a pick up order, ordered the two way with fried oysters and fried catfish with yams and greens. Everything was mediocre, and it was completely unsatisfactory considering I paid $20 bucks for it. Yams weren't cooked through, and weren't buttered and seasoned with honey and sugar at all...pretty bland and hard. Greens were okay, nothing spectacular. The oysters were decent. I'd give it a 3 star, they seemed fresh, battered a little longer. The catfish needed more batter, it had the tiniest coat of batter on it. Lacked in flavor and crunch...needed to be fried longer. Staff was nice inside, but not worth it for me. read more

The only thing I order here is the prawn dinner with fries. I just wish they season them(fries) better. Didn't really like the yams and the red snapper has way too many bones. read more

A catfish dinner contains approximately a million thin pieces of greaseless peppery deliciousness. My sides were crunchy and very potatoey crinkle-cut fries and soulfully porky mustard greens. Highly recommend! read more

They do not follow directions well I told them for the second time now that i want my fish fired hard they are NOT AGAIN they are in a rush because they close in 45mins I will not be back and the man that works in there Is very rude !!!! read more

Excellent menu selection and prices are good and the food is awesome. I'll add and say that as a kid the food still taste the same and quality is the best. That's why I've been eating here for over 45 years. Keep up the great work and food you provide for the city and community of Richmond. Thank you so much. read more

One of my favorite fish spots. I love the friend prawns...they are my favorite. I don't really eat the sides so not much to say there I get the French fries and they are awesome! I definitely choose this over and other fish places in the area. read more

This is the second fish place I've tried in Richmond, the other is on San Pablo, and both are not as good as I expected. Batter shouldn't be hard like this. This is cop-out batter. Really good batter should have all kinds of crunch but also be somewhat pliable, not stiff. And the catfish was cut too thin for the hard, thick batter - so difficult to taste and feel the soft fish inside, which was actually good. The hushpuppies were the same way - soft and steamy on the inside - but batter a bit too hard and thick. The banana pudding was woeful. Very little flavor at all, mostly sugar. I'm used to a really sweet, aromatic flavor in banana pudding. Texture was irrelevant due to little or no flavor. No real crust. If you end up hungry in South Richmond, it might be a good, filling lunch - check their other offerings too. And btw - this is not a ghetto area - it's Cutting Ave, which is a thoroughfare like San Pablo, just above 580, five minutes from the Richmond Yacht Harbor and parks. read more

Used to be the go to fried fish spot until we found New Snapper on Ohio. This place is consistently good with the fry on the fish. Chicken is meh. And the prices seem a little high. read more

I am a big deep fried food fanatic. This place is ok, not so great. I like eating the deep fried oysters. It oysters were real small and the batter wasn't that great. The fries were not so good too. All that and it was pretty pricy for lunch. 18.00 bucks for 8 piece oysters and 1 can soda. read more

When this place first opened some 10 plus years ago it was very good. Now it's average. I only go on my lunch as I work in the area. The fish has a nice light breading but it's very under seasoned, I usually add salt. I always get the Sole Dinner which comes the two sides. You get a good amount of fish with your order. I also tried the hush puppies which were pretty damn good. Good Lunch Food, nothing more, nothing less! read more

Boulevard Fish & Barbeque - Sole Dinner - Seafood Near Me - Richmond, California

This place is SOOO good. The fish is seasoned perfectly! the greens are very tasty, the yams.....to die for. They give you pretty large servings of the fish which is great and the pieces thick and hearty. Some other places give you little scrawny dried up pieces, but Boulevards holds nothing back. So yey its in Richmond, but just be sure to go during the day and if possible with another person. read more

My go to Fish place when I'm in Richmond.I have no problems with them.My food is always hot and fresh.Taste exactly the same each time I go,I love this place been coming here for years. read more

3.5 This place really hit the spot. Fried fish and chicken seasoned very well. The fish tasted fresh, and it came out hot which is always a plus for me. The sides I picked (greens and yams), not blind blowing by any means but served there purpose. Would I go there again? Absolutely! The fish was awesome. read more

I think the sides are a rip off. But the catfish was fried and very crispy. It was simply delicious. The prices are reasonable. Im glad this place is so close to work. Highly recommend for a quick lunch. read more

Why would u put hot sauce in my bag i didnt ask for any and got it mixed up with the ketchup. Must i think for you simpleton

I went in for a oster's and fish plate for $15 that I had read it cost it I gets in there and she says where we have new prices she wanted to charge me $26 for three or four oysters and two small fish read more

Came here twice Fish were dried due to over cooked Cobbler has no peach but only crush Where is Gordon Ramey read more

I have been eating here for years. I stay away from fried food for the most part but when I go in this is my first stop.. a bucket of sole and snapper will feed any gathering. read more

Expensive! Sides are tiny and even with a 15 piece fish (almost 30 bucks) you get two small sides and 2 slices of bread. Everything lacks flavor and our greens were ice cold. Slaw was way too soupy. Plus, we had to purchase extra sides for three people which is ridiculous and ended taking our total to almost $50. read more

This was my first time coming here and I'm so happy I did!! I had the friend chicken dinner and it was soooooo good!!! Seriously one of the best fried chicken dinners I've ever had! More than enough to fill you up if you have a good appetite then this will do the trick! Thank you boulevard fish !!!! read more

The fish and shrimp is good and tastes like at Momma 's house. It is a community favorite we stop here frequently.

I love this place if I could I will eat it every week but my boyfriend don't want to drive that far we live in Brentwood.When every he ask what I want I say boulevard I just love the taste of the cat fish ,prawns ,hush puppies and greens.And there fish isn't greasy like other places I just love it read more

There is no better place for fried fish period. It is certainly not a destination spot but bring a friend to ride shotgun and get it to go. The fish, shrimp ( ask for largest they have and oysters can not be beat. They have great sides although the portions are a bit small for my tastes. read more

Fresh fried fish made to order. You may have to wait a bit cuz they're usually just 1 person working but it's worth it.

Best fish in the Bay Area hands down! Nice size pieces, excellent seasoning...... Just all-around good! Only thing is.... you need to call your order in cause it takes a while to get that good cooking out to you. read more

I ordered the fried fish and my friend ordered the chicken. Don't know what the deal was with the fried chicken but I don't recommend it. On the other hand, the fried fish was amazing! You could tell that it was very fresh and the breaded they used was very tasty. Would definitely go back to this place for the fish. Their side dishes are alright but nothing to get excited about. Definitely don't get their mixed greens side unless you want something equal to baby food. read more

Co worker got me hooked on this place. The fish was excellent. I will definitely be returning when in the area. Only gave 4 stars cause we ordered Sole and the guy gave us Catfish but it was still delicious. A bit pricey for the combos but worth it! read more

I was so upset with the portion, i've been going there four years,I left town for a year and they give me for tiny pieces of fish with a lot of fries,no,no,no I won't be back! read more

I've been doing good with the banana pudding and staying away, but after hearing about it again, I might have to go for another hit. my thing here is the fried prawn sandwich, so good. read more

When I called I almost hung up because an Asian man answered the phone but I ordered the 3pc fish and prawns that comes with two sides. I asked him what sides have he tasted that he thought were good or which ones are most popular? and he replied.. greens, mac salad or cole slaw. I ended up getting the yams and macaroni salad which are served in sample size cups and i expected more for what I paid. I also ordered the peach cobbler for dessert. The fish and prawns tasted but the yams tastes like they was straight from the can no good ole..brown sugar or butter to wake up those taste buds Yuck! and mac salad tasted like mayo which was another taste bud killer. Would've been nice if they had added some seasonings to it like garlic powder, pepper, lil salt. The cobbler tasted ok but you can tell whoever made don't know how to cook it because the crust was dry and the peach rue tasted like thickened peach juice from the can without butter, cinnamon, nutmeg or brown sugar. The cook and cashier were nice however, they really should consider getting someone in there that knows how to cook their sides and desserts read more

short story: delicious food perfectly fried with great sides... you won't ever be sorry for eating here. the end.

Just in town for the day from LA was looking for a hole in the wall fish spot Because they always have the best fish in LA that isSpoke to a native of the area who referred us here and it was bomb! I had the fried catfish and my sister had fried chicken wings Very tasty and the workers were very nice. read more

Havent tried the food but i drool when I think of the banana pudding. It's un-earthly good.

I've been coming to this place for years. Over the last year or so, this place has been becoming a disappointment. This is the third time I've had an issue with my food. The first time my food was not crispy as I requested everything was soggy and it seemed as if they were getting pretty stingy with the fish. The second time I asked for a mix of fish with Whiting being one of those fish and the fish was super fishy which led me to believe that it was not fresh. I called and they promised that the next time they would give me extra fish which they did this time, but guess what? I ordered a two-way fish with fries and hush puppies. I asked for a spicy fish crispy fries and I got some soggy ass fries which were not even seasoned. I called him to let him know he only gave me a small amount of fries with my two-way and he argued he gave me a lot of fries why the fuck would I call if you give me a lot of fries I am at my wits end with this place. They have become extremely stingy as I see it and I'm not spending my money here anymore. It's terrible when you have an appetite for something and it get all screwed up and you have spent your money. I see why their never busy anymore. read more

The fish is incredible. The locale ain't that great, but its relatively safe. I tried to log on but the wifi wasn't active. I took my laptop in there and I felt safe. Of course, I carry a gun. And yes now, I am addicted to the sole and shrimp. read more
