    Have dined here many times. Food is always great. Have had the mussels before, great flavored sauce but the quality of the mussels themselves seemed off. Many shells empty and a good portion of them had a mushy texture. We love it here so we will be back. The dining room was very noisy, so it was difficult to have conversation without missing things said.

    The food is consistently outstanding. Chef Ken is experienced in both his cuisine and operating his restaurant. The servers are delightful and we always enjoy Kristi’s enthusiasm.

    This restaurant is consistently amazing, and I know consistent as we dine there weekly, the food is simply amazing and the staff at the restaurant are the best people ever. Whether they are serving you specifically or not, they always make you feel welcome. The decor is adorable, classy but warm. I tend to go with the salmon which is superb, but if they have a fish special, I'm never disappointed. My fiancee' loves the french onion soup. The bread they serve gratis is the best. This is culinary perfection.

    Would you like to visit France for a cozy romantic evening without days of travel? Bleu Bohème. It’s the place. Couldn’t have better food and ambience. Service that is right on time, but not hovering. It was one of the best restaurant experiences we have had here in the US.

    We went to Bleu Boheme for our anniversary and it was the perfect choice. The food was delicious and the staff had put a card on our table wishing us a happy anniversary. At the end of our meal, they brought a complimentary chocolate mousse. These little touches made the occasion feel extra special and we appreciated the effort. I would recommend this restaurant.

    Let me start by saying I’m a regular at this restaurant because I live in the neighborhood and like to support locally owned businesses. However, the quality and service of this establishment has been going down tremendously in the past couple of months. They’ve changed chefs three times. I was just there last night celebrating my father’s birthday. Ordered the steak and frites and lamb chop. We asked to have the steak cooked medium and it was served well -done. In the past, the steak came in one big piece - but last night, it comes all sliced up piled with lots of onions. The pork chop was burnt on both sides and was extremely dry. Our waitress never came to check on us while we were eating. I told another server about our concerns. At that point, our server came by and she offered us a free dessert to compensate for the poor service and horrible meal. $300 bill for a table of 4 with no alcohol. Never going back. Et Voila is down the street for when I crave French food.
