GF items marked on menu. Server understood cross-contamination. When the food arrived, he confirmed that the kitchen was aware that I'm celiac.

This one looks like a lower-priced restaurant; however, you quickly realize it's not once you get inside.. the food is delicious. I had the red snapper, and it was the best I've ever had on the island. The staff was terrific, and they were knowledgeable. I also had a salad. Good options.

Smaller restaurant, the waiter was familiar with celiac and the gf options. Most of the sides were gf and several of the meals. Gf was marked on main menu for the main dishes. My daughter is celiac. She had kids grilled chicken strips and rice. Very large portion. They had ran out of mashed potatoes so she got rice instead. Most importantly she didn't get sick. Will definitely be back!

The food was AMAZING here! I ordered the Grilled Red Snapper with scalloped potatoes and green beans. Then the creme brûlée trio for dessert. I was stuffed. I highly recommend this place while in Galveston.

This was our second time visiting BLVD. We have enjoyed it both times! Kevin was our waiter for each visit and he is outstanding! He definitely understood the need for me to avoid gluten cross contamination and he was able to steer me to many items on the menu that were safe. Definitely listen to his recommendations as he will not steer you wrong! Food was delicious. Everything was fresh and prepared to perfection. I am VERY reactive to cross contamination and I had zero issues in May and again last night when we visited. We can’t wait to go back the next time we visit Galveston.

Everything about BLVD was absolutely exceptional!! The most top-notch service, with both the host and the wait staff happy to point out the GF items on the menu, as well as options to make other items GF with minor mods. Sensitive celiac with zero symptoms after eating here. Truly amazing food in every way and we will be coming back every time we go to Galveston!!

Had the maple grilled salmon, asparagus, and mushroom risotto. It was amazing. They even offered an appetizer of smoked salmon on cucumbers instead of crackers for a gluten free option. Wine choices were great. Didn’t get sick.

Thank you to the staff for wearing face masks during the covid 19 outbreak. It is greatly appreciated.

I wasn't completely convinced that my need to avoid cross-contamination was taken seriously by the server. All gluten-free menu items are clearly marked, but the server - upon being told "please tell the kitchen gluten allergy - Celiac" just nodded his head and walked away.

I had the blackberry pork chop, which was excellent. I do not believe I was glutened by the meal.

Red snapper with asparagus and green beans were amazing! Felt 100% confident eating here. The outside of the restaurant is fairly unassuming, but the inside is very nice, and the food is fantastic! Great service, too.

So good! Staff was well aware of celiac. Not a ton of choices, but enough variety. Take care if ordering something with tortilla chips - somestimes they purchase premade GF chips, other times they make their own in a fryer that also fries gluten.
