Boulevardier has been on our list of must-go’s ever since it
opened and subsequently made the Top 100 Dallas Restaurants list. We were a
little apprehensive about the dinner menu prices since the Taste Buds always
strive to keep the pocket book intact, so we opted to try brunch instead.
The two of us, accompanied by some foodie friends, trekked down
to Bishop Arts on a lovely Sunday for our foodie adventure. The restaurant
space was very warm, cozy and inviting. We were seated at a table for 5 and
greeted by a really nice and friendly waiter. We started off by ordering
cocktails and Le Petit Déjeuner (a myriad of pastries including: Croissant,
House-Made Buttermilk Biscuits, Baguette, Chocolate Croissant, Olive Oil Pound
Cake, Local Honey, Butter, and House-Made Jam). The Mimosas were $4 for one and
$12 for bottomless which isn’t a bad deal. Four of us opted to just start with
one after our waiter said that if we decided we wanted bottomless after our
first, he would just change it - no big deal. The Mimosas were really good –
not too much OJ which is key. I opted for something a little stronger and got
the Corpse Reviver #2. It was really good and very interesting. I would
absolutely order it again.

Then we asked our waiter what the best things on the menu
were. He told us the Eggs Meurette, Legs and Eggs, and Beef Tongue Hash are by
far the best. We made every effort to vary our orders and ended up with the following:
Eggs Meurette (Two Poached Eggs, Toasted Baguette, Mushroom, Bacon, Bone
Marrow, and Red Wine Sauce), Beef Tongue Hash (Pastrami Cured, Peppadew
Peppers, Caramelized Onion, Garlic Confit, Poached Eggs, Hollandaise), French
Toast (Biscoff, Cinnamon Toast Brittle, Real Maple Syrup, Grand Marnier,
Chantilly), and the Full English Breakfast (Two Eggs Your Way, House Bacon,
Maple-Sage Breakfast Sausage, Toulouse Sausage, Baked Beans, Home Fries,
Sautéed Mushrooms, Wood Grilled Local Tomato). We also got fries for the table because why not? They were great!
EVERYTHING we had was fantastic. From the breads, butters
and jams to the awesome cocktails to the delicious meals. The service was
great. The atmosphere was great. We can’t say enough about our experience and
definitely have a new favorite brunch spot. Boulevardier is well deserving of
the #31 spot on the top 100 list.
