"Boulevard looks like a metro station in Paris got an HGTV makeover complete with tiled mosaics, royal blue chairs, and brick archways everywhere. The American restaurant on the Embarcadero is exactly where to go for wine-drenched lunches or any time you want to pretend like you’re a retiree who drinks a bottle of chardonnay a day. Their $115 set menu is solid—think seasonal dishes like seared scallops, a rack of lamb, and sticky toffee pudding—but what this spot lacks in exciting food it makes up for with waterfront views and a posh atmosphere.
