This is one of my favorite restaurants! I'm never disappointed with my meal. The service was great, as always. 
Fantastic food and service. Didn't give all 5's because the back of the restaurant was extremely warm for our party of 11. They were trying to take the humidity out the air with dehumidifiers, but that was adding hot air into the area.
Our server was slow and forgetful. My entree, crab cakes, was sparse on crab meat. Overall the food was tasty and I'd go again.
They were out if 3 Main items at 8:00 on a Saturday night. With a limited menu to begin with it was hard to choose. Food was just average
Friendly but slow service. This was a Saturday when they apparently had more customers than they expected so the staff was stretched thin. There were four of us. I liked the seafood risotto very much. But others down graded the crabcake for too much bread filling. We ate outside, which was pleasant, except when an ambulance drove by once.
Our dinner last evening was delightful! We had a party of four, each of us ordering a different entree. All were amazing! I had the crab cake, which is served over a corn salsa, exceptional. Our server Alyssa was wonderful, making our night even better!
Great dining experience. The hostess greeted us and sat us immediately. Our server, Kari, could not have been nicer. She explained the chalkboard specials, answered all our questions and facilitated the pacing of our appetizers and entrees. Requests for additional lemon, cocktail sauce and ketchup were all honored immediately. The atmosphere was pub like and "shore quaint". We had a nice dinner and would definitely return.
The snapper and swordfish specials were delicious! The calamari was just ok and the clams needed a little more seasoning. Overall it was a very enjoyable night.
Everyone loved their food. Portions were generous. The service was also excellent. The noise level was manageable. It was too cold when we sat down and they quickly adjusted the temperature. It could not have been better!
The Salad was delicious, however we ordered a halibut dish which included shrimps ... we specifically told our waitress that we did not eat shrimps and we requested if we could have the dish without the shrimps , she said we could!! However when we started eating the meal... the dish was full of shrimps!! We did not send our meal back since we were with company. We moved the fish aside and ate it! We ate the delicious Halibut ! This error in delivering the meal was reported to the waitress who didn't care that we had been dissatisfied!!! This is not what we expected!!!

Fresh delicious seafood. Amazing halibut, branzino, oysters. Everything we ordered was delicious. The reasons why I gave 4 not 5 stars is because the chef is a bit too heavy on salt. Not all customers can handle very salty dishes.
The food here is excellent. We have been here several times and have always had good food. Kristina is an excellent waitress. Very attentive. This is our go to restaurant for seafood.
Decent seafood, but this chef likes fusing tastes that are not well matched. Poor service, hasty and abrupt, rather nondescript ambiance for an expensive BYOB Not good value forms money
Food is always abundant and delicious. I was disappointed that they took the fish tacos off their menu which is my favorite go to dish. We sit at the counter often and watch the preparation of the food. What bothers me is that they use the cloth that they wipe the counters with to wipe everything around them, including the rim of the dishes with the food on them that they're serving their customers with.
Food was very good but our waitress was not very polished. An example: Boulevard Seafood is a BYOB and we did bring our own bottles of wine. Seeing this the waitress should have at least offered to open our bottles. Not a word. So I opened them myself.
