BLEU BOHEME REVIEWS

We went during SD Restaurant Week in January 2025 to try this place for the 1st time. We will definitely be back! The appetizers were both excellent. Gnocchi had a light somewhat airy texture instead of the common dense dough texture in gnocchi. Crab croquettes were super tasty and the arugula and jicama salad were great pairing. The beef entree wasn’t something I would like to order again simply because I wasn’t a fan of the strong wine flavor. The meat was amazingly soft though. The sauce that came with the duck confit dish was so good. I didn’t expect it to be so flavorful. It actually paired very well with the meat and was the highlight of the whole dish. The desserts were also very good.

We had three special occasions to celebrate-a birthday, a new job, and a wedding anniversary. This was a great place for celebrating! Our food and service were superb. The chef came out to make sure our food was good and that we were enjoying our evening. It was a Saturday night, so there were lots of people enjoying this restaurant; there was a little more noise than I would have liked. The parking can be difficult - there is a small shared lot, but not much street parking. It was a lovely evening, and I hope to go to Bleu Boheme again soon!

We went here for dinner last night for our 2nd wedding anniversary. It was are first time there and we will definitely be back. We loved the food, the service, the ambiance. The portions are substantial and delicious. We ended up taking food home including the bread.

THE SMOKING GOAT RESTAURANT REVIEWS

My partner and I went during the last night of Restaurant Week and The Smoking Goat did not have an empty table throughout the night, the turnover was incredibly fast! The steak tartare was amazing with the mustard on the side, my fiancé had the escargot in all its buttery, garlicky goodness. Duck l’orange was perfectly cooked and seasoned, and I was surprised by how much I loved the scalloped potatoes. Steak frites was also a highlight, with its plate-licking bordelaise sauce (LOL). The duck fat truffle fries were a favorite for us! We ended the night with goat cheese cheesecake (it was undoubtedly goat cheese, which I loved) and an incredible crème brûlée. We will both be back!

I visited The Smoking Goat restaurant for the first time and was very impressed! The dining room is cozy and comfortable. The staff were friendly and attentive. The food was excellent. We started with the crispy Spanish octopus and it was out of this world! For dinner I had the steak frites. Another winner. The steak is a large New York Strip and the frites are perfectly fried and seasoned. If you like wine, try their own labeled Bordeaux Rouge. It was quite nice and affordable.

Came here with my mom and her friends. We loved it. Everything was delicious! The baked Brie was amazing!!

PARC BISTRO-BRASSERIE REVIEWS

My fiance's birthday was last weekend in this weekend for one of her to do was to eat at a French restaurant being that she's half French and half Egyptian. I always talked about her Grandma's French cooking. We searched on Google near the location we were at and this place came up. Made a reservation immediately. Arrived to the location parking wasn't an issue was seated quickly the vibe was nice the ambiance was awesome the food was good and our server Courtney was the bomb.com!!! We are fans and definitely will be back again. Bravo.

Really charming French restaurant in Bankers hill. The bread and olive tapanade were deliciously salty. The pate was delectable and luscious. French onion soup was on point and rich with flavor. Salmon was rich and inviting. The duck breast was flavorful but a bit chewy. However, the duck leg was tender and savory. They have a great happy hour menu and on a Sunday! Who has happy hour on a Sunday. Looking forward to returning.

My husband and I had dinner at Parc. I ordered the fillet medallions and they tasted delicious. The steak was cooked perfectly and the sides were amazing. I also really liked the French onion soup and the complementary bread they give you. I strongly recommend this place for a nice dinner night.
