| - The food at East Boulevard Bar & Grille, or is it Frank's? Or is it Frank's East Boulevard Bar & Grille? No matter. The food is pretty average. It's also pretty inconsistent. Both, just like the name.
Wings are the staple of any sports bar. The wings at East Blvd are okay, just okay. They're not quite cooked as much as I like and at times they're on the verge of being under-cooked. Steer clear of the philly cheesesteak eggrolls or whatever the hell they're called. One of my friends ordered them and said they were unpleasant. Common sense always impels me to avoid such culinary abortions.
I think I've had a sandwich here and that's about as memorable as that was. The french fries are these flat round circles. They're good, but not amazing like others claim. People are such suckers for gimmicks.
There's something I find off putting about the atmosphere. I can't put my finger on it. There's just no personality to it and yes, the televisions are in awkward places. Also, never been a big fan of carpet in restaurants. Food get smushed in it and it's just not a good look.
The service is also hit or miss. Some of the waitstaff here is really pleasant. Some of the waitstaff here will completely forget about your table.
Unfortunately, I have one (1) friend who thinks this place is great, I end up going here more often than I'd like, even though Lebowski's across the street is superior in food quality, atmosphere & service.
At the end of the day, this is a much less cool Icehouse with only slightly better food and service and far fewer strumpets.
