“ This place is a VIBE... I'll definitely be back the drinks are great!! Food is really good and the DJ is EVERYTHING ”
“ Great food, drinks and atmosphere. Haven't tasted catfish any better Up south. Nice neighborly place . ”
“ The vibe here is always amazing and I frequent here a lot . Today I decided to get a different dish as my lobster meal that I always got for brunch is no longer on the menu. I ordered the steak , eggs and home fries . We honestly waited about 40 minutes for our food. My home fries , steak and eggs were super salty I couldn't finish it . It tasted like someone not only over seasoned it but also sprinkled salt on the finished product as I tasted the salt crystals while eating it. The steak was a great portion overall . My biscuit with the butter and jam was amazing as always. Would have been an easy 5 start rating if my dish wasn't so salty . Other than the food the 4 stars is for the customer service that is always the bomb , the music as the dJ is always great and my drink in which I ordered a nat turner . Still love Blvd but I guess I'll have to find a new dish to my liking . ”
“ Blvd Bistro on a Friday night is definitely a vibe. First things first, make sure you have a reservation and even with a reservation, it's possible you'll have to wait like we did. We arrived about 10 minutes prior to our reservation but then had to wait about 30 minutes total before we were seated. MY friend and I both ordered the catfish, potato salad and collard greens and they were all every good. They were seasoned will and though I did put some hot sauce on my catfish, I probably could have had it without. The night we went there was live music and I loved that the crowd was into it. I want to go back again on a weekend for their karaoke brunch. ”
“ Food was great! We had a family dinner, 30 people, 3 generations. EVERYONE enjoyed the food, service, and atmosphere. The service was great- and owner very accommodating. Looking forward to another visit. ”
“ So so good. Had the egg breakfast. Eggs were perfectly seasoned. Potatoes, too. Bacon, chef's kiss. I'm a Brooklynite who happened upon Harlem with 3 eager friends. May not return to this side of town any time soon, but it'll be on my mind just in case I come up here again. ”
“ Blvd bistro is by far one of my fav places in Harlem. The service is okay. Could be better. The music is always a blast, it is loud, but keeps you dancing in your seat while you wait for your food. Now the food is where it's at!!! The catfish is simply amazing with the perfect crisp. The potato salad is surprisingly decent and I don't eat anyone's potato salad. The greens are good too but could use more flavor or smoked necks to elevate the flavor. Drinks are also good and leaving you feeling nice. The place is always packed so it is advised to have a reservation during busy hours. But may be okay to walk in, but with a small wait. The ambiance of the restaurant is a bit rustic and soulful. A convenient restaurant to enjoy authentic soul food that isn't mediocre. ”
“ A very fun (but very loud) restaurant with great comfort food Ambience: this is definitely a party spot! We came on a Saturday and there at least 3 different birthday parties being hosted here. They have a DJ which is very cool but VERY loud! I'd not come back unless it was a party bc it is hard to speak over the loudness Service: good service Food: I loved the friend chicken sliders! I'm a bit surprised that there were only 2 sliders included. The biscuit basket included 4 biscuits and I enjoyed the honey butter. The friend chicken dinner included turkey collards and potato salad. I didn't like the potato salad bc I found it tart. The fried chicken was good and very filling' Price: overall reasonable price ”
