    Bleu Boheme is our favorite restaurant in San Diego. We chose it for Valentine's day due to it's consistency and the warmth of the environment. We were engaged after dining there one year ago, so of course we wanted to go back and recreate that magical evening. I am always leery of price fixed menus, but with Bleu Boheme, there is no need for doubt. The food is always A+, but it was even more fabulous that normal. My favorites were on the price fix menu and they were better than ever. The brussels sprouts were fantastic and my salmon, oh my gosh, was fabulous. They were generous with the portions. As always the service was beyond compare. Everyone in the restaurant feels like a family member. The owner and head chef is so very gracious and talented. I couldn't give any higher accolades than to Bleu Boheme.

    Excellent selection of meal , entree items. For the second time, salmon arrived well done, waiters dont ask how we'd like it done, my bias is medium rare, but not super baked; obviously the chef hasnt been to Alaska or to the Pacific Northwest to experience how to prepare salmon. Rest of appetizer and side dishes are fine, good sized servings. Will still go back, and work on the chef's to get them not to overdo the salmon.
