    Excellent service from beginning to end. Our waiter was superb. Food was heavenly as always. Always a special treat to celebrate occassions here. Disappointed though they don’t do the complimentary birthday desserts anymore. We ordered desserts but HOPR used to also do a fun little free birthday dessert for the birthday guests.

    This was our 31st year celebrating Christmas at Boulevard. We have had the same table every year . Even as our family grew, the birth of our son, then his girlfriend, who became his wife. Even as the world has changed Boulevard has been the one constant that hasn’t. From beautiful decor, amazing food and wonderful people. Thank you Boulevard for making another Christmas perfection. I hope to see thirty more years of Celebrating at your amazing restaurant.

    We always try to eat at Gary Danko when we are in town (from Hawaii) for special holidays in this case Christmas Eve. So grateful they were open and able to accommodate us. This is always our go to place because our daughter in law is gluten intolerant and they always graciously accommodate her (even to the point of having gluten free bread). Many restaurants will not accommodate because of possible cross contamination, but Gary Danko always welcomes us. We love the selections of courses and look forward to the muffin they give for breakfast the following morning. The only criticism I have is that there is no valet parking - so we take taxi/uber weather can be severe. You have to try this and you will keep coming back!
