Editorial Review for Boulevard Blue – by John Hyduk

In Short
This pizza pub-turned-jazz club debuted in April 2004 after an extensive renovation. Now wall-size murals recreate New Orleans' French Quarter, and a glass facade flows into a classy atrium ceiling. The bar staff pours specialty drinks like the Stoli raspberry Boulevard Red, while the kitchen dishes tamarind pork chops with cheese grits to throngs of neighborhood hotties. An equally meaty musical menu of blues and jazz groups rules Thursday through Saturday (9:30pm-1am).

Insider Tips

Where to Sit

Catch the performance from the dining area. Sight lines from the bar to the stage are poor.

Save Money

An "On the Boulevard" menu features four options under $16, including an excellent Kobe beef burger platter ($13.50).

The Extras

Larchmere Boulevard outside boasts 50 shops and galleries, and is worth a pre- or post-dinner stroll.

What to Drink

The house microbrew, Falling Roof Ale ($3.50 a glass), plays on the Blue's adventures in renovation.

Boulevard Blue is my favorite restaurant on the East side and we at least a few times a month. The food is creative, seasonal and always fresh as Executive Chef Scott Wuennemann places tasty new items on the menu every week. The warm and welcoming staff does a wonderful job of balancing elegant food service with the fun atmosphere of live music after 9:30 pm on week-ends. Where else can you find great food, live music and excellent service all in a charming neighborhood. Looking forward to visiting...again!

Pros: Fresh Menu, Fun bar, Great music

3 Star Rating: Average

The food was great but the service was just OK. We were not seated until about 30 mins after our reservation time and then we were seated at the worst table (right by the front door) where there were other tables avaliable. The waitress forgot my drink & never came back until we were finished with our dinner. Like I said the food was good but the service was just average which means we probably won't be going back any time soon.

Pros: Food, Location

Cons: Service

Editor's Review

Gourmet grits and a glass ceiling power a bop stop whose appeal extends beyond jazz buffs.  See the full editorial review.
