BOULEVARD REVIEWS
I have been curious about Boulevard Restaurant located in The Audiffred Building at 1 Mission Street for years, so when friends invited me to join them there, I jumped at the chance. The atmosphere, enhanced by its Art Nouveau theme, is very welcoming, as is the wait staff. With a tasty martini in hand from the full bar, we were escorted to our table which, happily, seemed to be in a location where we could hear one another. Next time I will make notes about the unique features of each dish, but alas, all I can offer now is that every bite was delicious!
Hadn’t been here in over 10 years but it has always been a family favorite. It definitely did not disappoint! Excellent flavor and texture balances. A great place to dine and create memories.
Excellent food and service in a beautiful setting. All the dishes were super fresh and cooked and seasoned perfectly.

WAYFARE TAVERN REVIEWS
This is a nice 1900s upscale restaurant. Attended my brothers wedding reception there. The place was small and intimate. The reception was held upstairs on a different floor. Was nice set up , the food and service was great. The fried chicken , baked Mac and cheese, salmon was a must try. The cocktails are delicious. I enjoyed the reception over all. Dress to impress, you have to find parking around the restaurant pay at meters. Definitely need to come back and try over dishes here. Highly recommend it.
We enjoyed a night on the town and the Wayfair Tavern lived up to our expectations. The burger, chicken, and pop overs were delicious but the honey squash soup, oysters, and cheesecake were stand outs. The cheesecake was high in the rankings for the best cheesecake ever. The service was especially fantastic.
12/21/23. Great restaurant in the Financial District. Food, wine and cocktails are top notch. The only minus for our party of 5 was that we had 6:30pm reservations and had to wait until almost 7pm to be seated. Good neighborhood too.

NOPA REVIEWS
Lovely meal. Really enjoyed the wine. Got the bread (not served warm but was still delicious) and cauliflower as apps which were amazing. For mains, the bolognese was perfect and my boyfriend really liked his burger! The brownie dessert was also incredible. All around phenomenal meal well worth the decently high price point. Side note, we didn’t order the Moroccan fried chicken but we saw the table next to us order it. It was massive (looked yummy!) and looked like it was meant to be shared by at least two people although it doesn’t suggest it that way on the menu. Just throwing it out there because it’s listed as a main but personally I wouldn’t get it for just myself. It’s a huge plate.
Service is top notch! We were so lucky to be seated in Rico’s section. The espresso martinis were the best we’ve had in the city and the desserts were so flavorful. We had the brown butter brownie and the spiced apple cider cake. We can’t wait to come back for dinner!
Nopa is an absolute institution, and it doesn’t just live up to that reputation, it exceeds it. When I first moved to San Francisco, seemingly everyone would ask if I’d been to Nopa yet. I get it now. You’re going to spend money, but you’re going to get your money’s worth. The duck breast was one of the best I’ve ever had in my life, the pork chop is legendary, the cocktails are phenomenal, and the staff is attentive, friendly, and professional.
