The night I was there a large party can in ( 8) and it was so noisy we had to shout to carry on a converstaion. The steak was undercooked and the calamari tasted like it had been frozen. On top of that it was very expensive. This would be on the top of my worst resturant experiance. Do you... more

Great food! Really slow service, though. It could have been due to new/lack of people in the kitchen we found out, though. more

I had a three course dinner at Cafe Boulevard this evening, and while the soup and risotto were both acceptable , the presentation of their entreé was appauling. We were seated in the basement, which they call the wine celalr, and I admittedly prefer this area to the above dining room. It is much cozier and has more of a... more

I Just went to Cafe Boulevard for the first time after many friends kept telling me about this little secret in the Oregon District, and I must say THE FOOD WAS EXCELLENT, THE SERVICE SUPERB AND THE AMBIANCE MADE ME FEEL LIKE I WAS IN A BISTRO IN EUROPE. I also had a wonderful martiniI "THE VERY BERRY MARTINI" I... more

First couple of times the food was good but over priced, service was average. The last time was THE WORST dinning experience I have ever had. Waited over an hour to be served and when the food arrived it was ice cold. Manager was rude and incompetent. more

I have been going to Dayton for short stays on business for years. I have been to Cafe Boulevard and Le Monde for years. The food remains the same, the menu hasn't changed in years, the manager/owner is rude and if weren't for my business clients liking the food I wouldn't have ever spent other dime there. Skip it and... more

Cafe Boulevard is a wonderful place. I have been there quite a few times. I love the atmosphere, the music, the wine, the service and most of all the food. Everything I have had there was wonderful. Especially the french onion soup and the desert crepes! Loved everything I've tried there. This place is a must for anyone visiting the... more

Wonderful! My boss took me and my colleague to lunch here for a celebration and we had a wonderful time. Let me say first and foremost that the new patio in the back is fabulous. Aside from the occasional train that goes by, it is quiet with a wonderful selection of Spanish music and jazz that was playing on this... more
