This place is a must. The food, the people, the ambiance, the service and the location are phenomenal. We ordered family style which is my favorite. I get to eat a little bit of everything. The tomahawk was fire. The crab gnocchi was insanely good. A special shout out to our server Joe! He was excellent. Our drinks were constantly refilled, he said what he meant and meant what he said. He asked us when we wanted the food and we answered. The food came exactly as we requested. A super special shout out to the manager Ian. He came to our table several times and asked us how we're doing and sincerely thanked us for choosing Blvd Steak. Excellent service. Thank you, Keller Williams Studio City and thank you, Joe and Ian.

Great caviar and starters in general - go for the wagyu meatballs if you can. Main (fillet) was good, not sure it was anything crazy but very much enjoyable. Sides were okay, dessert was good albeit a bit sweet. Service was always friendly and vibe was nice and not uptight. Came out to 250$~ per person, do with that information what you may. Could see myself returning

I would like to share that we were very happy with the service. Attentive and quick! The food we liked were the porterhouse, ribeye, sea bass, shrimp cocktail, asparagus & ricotta, garlic shrimp, steak tartar, pretzel bread, shoestring fries and the baked potato. Food misses were the oysters, lobster mash, corn, king crab and the tuna tartar. All the cocktails needed improvement. Tonic should not be flat. Margaritas had no flavor. The best dessert was the lava cake. The shape of the restaurant is a box, which means it's very loud in there. Visually pleasant.

BLVD Steak is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, the service was impeccable. The staff was attentive without being overbearing, making sure every detail of our experience was perfect. The ambiance is sophisticated yet welcoming, and the team truly goes above and beyond to ensure a memorable evening. The star of the show was the bone-in filet—perfectly cooked, tender, and amazing flavor. It was hands down one of the best steaks I’ve ever had in LA. Pairing it with their dirty martini was a game-changer. The martini, served in a classic cocktail shaker, was smooth, balanced, and delightfully chilled to the last drop. BLVD Steak delivers on all fronts, and I can’t wait to return for another unforgettable meal. Highly recommend!

Updating my original review. Finally got back to give BLVD Steak a second try after the first disappointing visit. Firstly I have to say Thankyou to the manager Ian for reaching out after my first review and suggesting we come back and give them another go. It showed a rare dedication to excel and make sure the customer is happy. This time the restaurant do not disappoint. From being seated right away for our reservation, the great bustling atmosphere, and just general great vibes of this place, I'm happy and proud to have it in our neighborhood. Again the service is very prompt, our server Will was super friendly, and his wine recommendation was spot on. Cocktails are great too, watermelon margarita and blood orange mule are tasty. We again had the crab cake which really is a standout, super fresh, chunks of crab, and a great sauce that is not too overpowering or sweet. The sautéed shrimp is also a great tasty starter. Again I tried the bone in rib eye, medium rare, and it was cooked to perfection, and a better cut than the last time. After finding the sauces a little mild and disappointing for my liking last time I opted for the BLVD butter on the steak which while still a little mild was a tasty addition. Steak could probably use a little more seasoning, salt etc, but still great. Next time I'd like to explore the Wagyu for a little more flavor maybe. My wife had the sea bass which with the golden outer was very tasty as an alternative to steak. The lobster mash was tasty with nice big chunks of lobster and the smashed broccoli was a nice addition although could maybe use a little more butter, seasoning and garlic to make it special, but still nice. Again the service, and vibes are stellar and I'm looking forward to visiting again to try some other options. Also great bar to hang and snack and drink. Thanks again Ian! Soooo close. Just don't order the steak! It's a shame cos we've lived in this area for near 20 years, remember this place when it was tired old Stanley's. The vibe is amazing, service great, busy, cocktails and wine list great. We had the crab cake, which is very big and good for 2, super tasty. The 6 oysters were tasty and fine, nothing special. For sides we order the truffle gnocchi, broccolini, creamed spinach which were all awesome. Shared a lobster tail which was super tasty, but a little Undercooked and chewy. Now the main thing and management and owners please, you are a steakhouse, and your weakest link is your steak. Both of our steaks, a medium and a medium rare, were rare, even almost cold inside. I like my meat, from a butchers family, and like to cook, my wife's fillet cut was ok, just not cooked well, but the bone in rib eye cut, really, was kinda shit and for $92 I could definitely grab pounds of better cuts from Ralph's up the road and throw them on my grill. The steaks could be seasoned better too. And we got all the sauces and they were very underwhelming. I don't get it cos you guys got all the hard stuff right, service, vibe, menu, etc, it's not hard to get good meat, and cook a good steak. If u need some recipes for kickass sauces and a little lesson on choosing good meat and cooking a great steak hit me up. I'll help free of charge. I really want you guys to succeed, maybe just spend a little time, search out a cook steak chef, get it right, cos the place could kick ass and for $800 for 2 people, I just expected more: I will be back so please management sit down and eat a steak a week and get your guys to nail that stuff. Good luck!

Grade B+ (87): Started with a wedge salad which was tastefully served as 3 piles in the dish which made it very easy to split since there were 3 of us. Also ordered the lemon pasta as an appetizer, was just ók, flavor mild, nothing like Angelini's, probably won't get it again. We ordered 3 steaks, Dry Aged bone-in Ribeye, Kosher bone-in Ribeye and the NY Steak. All 3 were good but not great, I've had better. Side order of Lime Corn (no good). Dessert was Cheesecake which seemed to be dry (maybe boxed ready) anyway, it's good but not a standout. Extremely loud and very obnoxious people around that just tell and force laughter (both times we were there this happened). Parking is tough, you probably have to use the Valet, we did.

An absolutely amazing experience. Right when you walk up to the restaurant you are greeted by smiling staff, the door opens to the most beautiful restaurant and more smiling staff. Our server was also amazing, only outdone by the Caesar salad! I cannot stop raving about this salad! It has me in a choke hold. I keep looking at the photo i took and reminiscing. Everything was great and we cannot wait to visit again!

New place on Ventura, open only a few months. The service was excellent, with our water being very warm and hospitable. My wife and I enjoyed the Dry Aged Ribeyes (ribcap & bone-in) as well as crispy broccolini and truffle crab gnocchi. We also had a crabcake appetizer that we both agreed was the best we've ever had. We can't wait to return.
