Visited for brunch. Beautiful restaurant. Great service. Very nice area of Downtown Tampa. Portions were a little small and for $20+ a plate I wasn’t crazy about still wanting more food. Live musician for brunch. Paid for parking a block an away. Nice area to walk around after eating. Close to the arena.

Of French origin, we decided to go last night and drive an hour to come to this restaurant for the first time with our one-month-old baby to celebrate our anniversary. I just want to say everything was perfect. The food was delicious, and as a great connoisseur of the typical French dish, beef tartare, I particularly loved this one; it had a unique flavor. I had a wonderful time. The waitress, Ketlyn, and her assistant were fantastic, very kind and attentive. Thank you so much. A small note about the fries: they arrived cold. They should make an effort to improve that. Otherwise, everything was perfect, and of course, I finished with the profiteroles, my favorites.

oulon Brasserie is an easy win for a casual dinner night. Walked in on a Tuesday and snagged a beautiful outdoor table—great ambiance, zero stress. Service was solid. Our waitress was straight to the point, super chill, and refreshingly honest. No fluff, just facts.
East + West Coast oysters? Awesome. The blue crab beignets lived up to the hype—absolute highlight. The scallop risotto was… ehhh. Flavor was there, execution not quite. Risotto texture missed the mark, which hurt my feelings a little.
Steak frites were a win, and swapping fries for carrots was the right call (highly recommend). No drinks this round, but I’m confident they’d be a vibe. Would come back, would order even smarter next time.

Sooo Boulon made for such a lovely solo lunch and reading spot! I grabbed a seat at the bar with my book to enjoy a cocktail and some lunch. The bartender was really nice and checked on me often, and all the bartenders seemed to be in great spirits, you could tell they were enjoying their day. The restaurant has a bright, open feel that’s super inviting. I really enjoyed my meal, everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. I’ll definitely have to come back to try more from the menu!
What I ordered:
Steak Tartare = Tasty!
Snapper Amandine = Light and fresh

WHY CAN I NOT FIND A GOOD FRENCH RESTAURANT OR BAKERY IN TAMPA???
FYI, born and raised in Paris, France so I know a good French restaurant and bakery and this was not it.
The decor was nice but the music was too loud. Add to it that it was pretty busy it forced people to speak louder than usual, which made the place very noisy.
We decided to start with the lobster bisque as well as a French onion soup. The lobster bisque is the only reason why this place got two stars instead of one as it was decent not great by any means, but still good.
The French onion soup was way too salty and tasted sour for some reason.
With an ordered the regular salad I had a TRUFFLE CROQUE MONSIEUR which sounded amazing. I asked them if it came with cheese and they said yes, even though it didn’t mention that on the menu. I should’ve trusted the menu. There was no cheese to make it worse. The bread tasted stale. I could not see or taste any truffles, and the Dijon mustard sauce did not taste good either.
It came with a side salad, and the leaves were also kind of old and seemed like this salad had been sitting in a fridge for a while before being served.
Maybe they should look up what a Croque Monsieur is but the 2 main ingredients are ham AND CHEESE!!!
Same thing with the Frisée salad. Old with dark spots.
So instead of the salad, I asked a waiter if they could just do a croissant filled with cooked shrimp and poached eggs.
I was told that nothing from the menu can be changed or added. It’s not like I was asking them to cook a beef Wellington that was not on the menu.
They offered to bring me a croissant and shrimp on the side and poached eggs on the side.
If I wanted to make myself a sandwich I would’ve stayed home! Are you kidding me?
I asked to talk to a manager and he said he would see what he could do.
It took them 30 minutes to bring back a croissant cut in half with shrimps on it and the poached eggs in a different dish. And the worst part the eggs were not poached. They were hard boiled. See the photo I posted.
So still had to make my own sandwich. Wow!
When I asked for the manager again, he told me that this is why they do not change menu items because the chefs are used to cooking only what is on the menu. I told him that they had poached eggs on the menu and if a chef cannot cook a poached egg properly, he probably shouldn’t be called a chef or even a cook.
Instead of apologizing, the manager was trying to make excuses. They had croissants on the menu. They had shrimp on the menu and they had poached eggs on the menu. It’s not like I was asking them to do something that they had never cooked before. Absolutely ridiculous. He did end up apologizing but I reminded him that customers don’t want to hear excuses and it seems to be putting the blame back on the customer. We just want to hear an apology.
So disappointed again from a French restaurant and Bakery. Right now only found 2 bakeries that are good and this is not one of them. Will definitely not be back.

Boulon was an amazing choice to celebrate my friend’s birthday! The atmosphere was fun and lively. The drinks were fantastic and beautifully made.
The food was absolutely delicious and came out exactly how we asked for it, which made the experience even better. Everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. Between the great service, spot-on food, and awesome vibe, it was a memorable night and a place I’d happily go back to again.

I had a great experience here! We sat on the patio for dinner and it was a really nice ambience.
The French martini was definitely the best cocktail we tried – the pineapple adds a nice taste.
They’re known for their blue crab beignets, and I really liked them – they were soft and had a delicious flavour. I also loved the scallop risotto – it was cooked very well and I would definitely recommend it!

Really enjoyed this place, the food was delicious and the service was spot‑on. The “Le Burger” was one of the highlights for me, super tasty, even though I expected a bit more meat in them. Still worth trying. Also, the onion soup is an absolute must; definitely one of the best I’ve ever tasted. They also make some great drinks, The French
Martini, in particular, was wonderful and paired nicely with the meal. A couple of things to keep in mind, for example, the menu is a bit limited for me, and prices lean toward the higher side. Also, if you’re seated near the east‑facing windows in the afternoon, be ready you could face some strong sunlight because there are no shades, and that, can get uncomfortable. Reservations are highly recommended, as the place fills up fast specially around noon. Parking is easy in the area, with plenty of pay‑by‑hour spots and some fixed daily rates that might be a better deal depending on how long you plan to explore the neighborhood.

45 minutes wait for the entrée and
we did put in an order as soon as we receive appetizer
Foods takes forever. I mean, we ordered bread and butter and it’s also take another 30 minutes to get it after we done with the appetizer.
The food was dry, salty and it seems like it’s been waiting forever to get to our table
First experience for my friends’s birthday, but I think not again
