Boulevard

If you have to choose one restaurant to go to in San Francisco, it should be Boulevard. Boulevard is...

This is my second favorite restaurant in S.F., my fave is Gary Danko. We've been to Boulevard several times, dinner and lunch and have always loved everything we've had. 4 friends and I went to lunch recently, the table was already set but someone came over and changed our white napkins to black napkins??? After lunch I asked why, she said we all had black pants on and the white linen would have left lint on our pants, now that is service! People who have complained about the service are either so picky or they were there on a bad night, the service has always been outstanding and the place is always packed. We've never felt rushed, the 5 of us were there for almost 3 hours eating and talking. One in our party found a small piece of dirt in her salad, she mentioned it to the waitress and it was taken off her bill and the waitress brought us all truffles on the house.
It's pricey but worth every penny, if you're coming from out of town, book in advance as it's always crowded (no recession in S.F.), the building is beautiful and the decor inside is also beautiful. I highly recommend Boulevard to anyone who enjoys great service, beautiful surroundings and excellent food.

My husband and I went to this San Francisco landmark restaurant the other evening to celebrate our 4th wedding anniversary and all I can say is.....what a romantic evening! The restaurant is cozy(the lighting is great!) , it wasn't too crowded on the night we were there (perhaps a sign of this awful economy?!) The waiter was gracious and very efficient, the food exceptional and the dessert (yes you have to save room for dessert!) was scrumptious! and what followed later on that evening, well, just use your imagination! ;) Seriously if you are looking for fine dining, a romantic dinner or perhaps to entertain business clients than definitely pay this San Francisco landmark restaurant a visit, you will be very glad you did!
