Boulevard Bar & Grille - Lexington

This was my first time at Boulevard. I was a little skeptical with some of the recent negative reviews. I went out with a colleague for "happy hour". The service was decent and the waitress was attentive to everything going on at not only our table but the tables around us. I don't think anyone was ignored or had to wait an extensive amount of time. It looked like everyone working was trying to make sure everyone had what they needed without a terrible wait. We didn't have food, but from those around that had food, everyone was finishing their plates and appeared tasty! The drinks were good and the waitress was on top of refills as needed right away. Great service! With the weather, there weren't many on the patio, but the inside with folks was never too loud or overwhelming. I was impressed! Maybe it's because it was a weeknight, but staff and patrons were all friendly and respectful.I'd opt to go here again and be inclined to try a few of the plates of food!! Thank you, Boulevard! I was impressed and definitely pleased!!

Decided to go here for lunch today. The special was all their burgers were $8. We all ended up getting burgers. I got the mushroom and Swiss with a side salad. My husband got the bacon cheeseburger with fries. My husband got a beer with his lunch. Both lunches were good. We had a nice time visiting with our friends.

We met some friends here for lunch today. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger with fries and my wife got the mushroom and swiss burger with a side salad. Today they were having a special on all their burgers. $8. Everything was tasty. We will be back.

Saturday out on the town with Sis a couple of weeks ago and we wanted to try some place new for lunch. The last time we were here it was Bamboo Betty's. Better parking lot now, with a patio, and of course, the inside is remodeled. No more DJ space or dancing floor. A long bar top when you walk in and booth/ table seating in the back. There are plenty of big TVS to watch sports wherever you look. Service was good. No complaints there. The best thing ordered was the deep-fried pickles. I was expecting traditional circles, but what actually came were long, thinly sliced pickles. They had the perfect ratio of crunchy breading and were addictive. Sour pickle, salty seasoning.Sis ordered the BLVD Big Mac. She liked it but could only eat half. Took the other half home and was not as good as leftovers.I ordered the Cheesy BBQ burger and was not impressed. It came with cheese curds, but they were breaded (gritty texture), not battered.The hamburger patty wasn't fresh like it stated on the menu. It tasted like a frozen patty I get from the grocery store and heated up on a George Foreman. The meat was densely packed like a by-product, very chewy with no flavor. Fresh hamburger should be tender and juicy.If we happen to come back here again, I'll likely order the fish fry. Seems to me that is what people here on YELP post about.

We went and had dinner on a night when kids eat free. Our server was great and friendly and our food came out fast. The burger and kids meal was great. Our chicken wings where large and had plenty of sauce but unfortunately when we bit into the second wings blood came out so we didn't finish those and recooked them when we came home. We enjoyed the ambiance and all the TV's they had going this would be a fun place to watch a game and have drinks.

The beer was cold, the food was hot, the patio was clean. It was a perfect stop for our date night dive bar tour de northern suburbs. Friends were made, people were watched and beer was drank. The highlight was the cleanliness of the outdoor space. The good folks at Boulevard do NOT leave it to the birds.

We went for lunch one day and then for AYCE fish two days later. We go here quite often and always enjoy the food and beer on tap.

Got the pick 2 combo, 16 bucks for a half rack of ribs sirloin steak bites and fries. Food was awesome. Really good value.

Honestly, this is a difficult place to review.On one hand, they seem to always have a 2-for-1 going on drinks (even calls!) and at decent prices! Some food items (wings, burger) are pretty good but other items (Philly cheese, other sandwiches) are just not. Service is random -- sometimes it takes FOREVER for food to come out and frequently it hits the table one plate at a time which is so annoying. Then other times its out quick.I guess the issue with eating here is just inconsistency. My advice, come for the double-drinks and eat if you need to

Went to Boulevard #2 on Fri 9/6 with my sister in law for lunch. The service was terrible. The waitress was too busy chatting to wait on us, had to flag down another employee to get a refill of iced tea, which when we did recieve had no ice or lemon added. The "blackened steak" was not blackened at all, the shrimp were overcooked and rubbery. needless to say, we won't be back.
