The Boulevard Bar Eatery is a great discovery. The mussels there are excellent, tasty and well prepared. The outdoor tables are pleasant, ideal for enjoying the setting. The location is perfect, just a stone's throw from the beach, making it a great place to relax after a walk. A place to recommend for a good time with friends or family!

We ordered the fried calamari and a prosciutto with rocked pizza. The calamari was not crispy at all and didn't looked cooked properly. Instead of aoili as per the menu, a little bowl with half mayo half ketchup was brought along with the calamari. The calamari should come first and the pizza after as the calamari is an entre, instead they brought both menus at the same time. The waiter didn't bring plates for the pizza. We got charged $50 extra by mistake. Not a good experience overall.
