Boulevard Grill — Restaurant in Lawrence

Not what it used to be. The menu has been changed, and is very small. We sat for a long time waiting for drink order to be taken. Only about ten other people in the place, so it wasn't busy, considering there were two servers and one bar tender. After about 15 minutes, the drinks were ordered.

The garlic mashed potatoes side was barely ok, but the wild rice side was decent. Both no worse or better than any mass restaurant chains reheated versions. So many options in Lawrence, do not settle for this place because it's...

Chicken, roasted tomatoes, with a mushroom sauce over. The mushroom sauce and roasted tomatoes were really good but the chicken itself was not as juicy as I was expecting. I got mashed potatoes and greenbeans for my sides. Green beans were really good! And mashed potatoes were okay. Aside from the roasted tomatoes, and mushroom sauce the food tasted a bit bland but I'm sure this is why they put salt and pepper in the bag...
