Boulevard 18

End of story: Classic French Bistro food in New Canaan. Go there for the steak and frites.

We go to Boulevard 18 quite often, probably the most of all the restaurants in town.  I would have given the restaurant 4 stars but have noticed that food consistency is going down a little bit.  For example, I was blown away by the French onion soup the first time I had it, but most recently, the soup I had was too sweet. The potato-wrapped sea bass was succulent and crispy the first time I had it and flaccid the second time.  Not good.

Still we go for the gougeres and steak and frites, which my kids love. I also love the kale salad. Service is also very good.

Very nicely done table settings white table cloths,beautiful crystal etc.. We had the Halibut special very good.  They still have growing pains staff gathers in corners chatting people moving things through the restaurant while dinner service is going on.  They couldn't find the bottle of wine I ordered they eventually did &Andrea our Server apologized.
Not an inexpensive place as a matter of fact very pricey.  Good not great.

Just okay. Went back for a second visit it's Just okay not great &with the tariff they charge they have to be great.  Maybe we'll give it another try not sure.

It's a good restaurant.  People are very friendly and the owners are nice guys too.  Two women sat down and were blabbing all night long and wouldn't leave our table for our 8:00 reservation.  They comped us some appetizers and we had a nice time at the bar, and then gave us a nice big table, while they apologized profusely for something that was completely out of their control.  The food was very good and they make excellent drinks also.
