We had a lovely birthday dinner for my daughter. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their dinners. They surprised my daughter with a platter of delectable desserts and our entire party of five got to enjoy them. I had the salmon Oscar for my entree. It was insanely delicious - cooked to perfection with crispy skin and slightly rare inside. The crab topping was to die for. Our server, Leo, was so attentive and friendly. The lighting in the restaurant is very warm and romantic - also very flattering for photos!

Best french cuisine. Choose Lamb or the Pork. It will melt in your mouth. Great service, too. They charge for bread and butter, now, understandably, but they should disclose it.

We have been going to Blue Boheme almost every week for two years. I never once have been disappointed in my meal! I've never been to a restaurant that is so consistently marvelous. I love the Tuna special with the mixed veggies and, the Brussel sprouts done just how I like them. Who knew french food could be so healthy? My fiancee' loved the new touch of short rib added to the french onion. How can perfect get better? Well it did. The service is beyond compare. Everyone there is so welcoming. Best restaurant ever!
