They have changed their menu with a heavy seafood offering and removed vegetarian options such as Mediterranean salads, veggie chili and butternut squash soup. Please bring back some appealing vegetarian options!

The food here was delicious! Love the little splash of soup that they put that spills over the bread bowl, a very nice touch. Definitely not a place you would go to find super clean tables and a great atmosphere, but with how cheap the food is, what do you expect? It was a nice inexpensive dinner for us and I'd definitely go back when I'm in the mood for some bread bowls!

I usually come here after school with my 2 daughters while my son is at tutoring and we sit inside. They get broccoli cheddar bread bowls and something in the bakery counter. Always good and consistent. I got a sandwich today as well that was on point, friendly staff. They always clean up all the tables right away as people leave. No complaints.

This place is terrible, the minute you walk there is a foul smell. My girls like their broccoli cheese soup, so I wanted to give it a try. There were empty boths, but the tables were not cleaned. We decided to set outside. The food arrived quickly. I ordered an Asian chicken salad with a side of tomato soup. The tomato soups was good. The Asian salad had a big piece of dirt/soil in there. So I did not eat it. Will not be going there again.

This was my first time here. All these years i've never tried boudin. I enjoyed the pizza the muffin was a little hard but still good my husband ordered the broccoli and cheddar bowl which was delicious. service was not so good the young girl was def not happy to be there she needs to provide better customer service, she really lacked in this area. i think i would of have 5/5 but really thinking of lowering due to customer service, this is huge in my opinion. ambiance is cute i enjoy all the bread sculpted animals. Maybe i'll be back.

Really great Dungeness Crab Louis Salad served with fresh sour dough roll. Delicious Crab Corn chowder soup bowl. Very fresh! Excellent service by Michelle the Manager who is seen working hard helping customer's. Friendly service and clean environment.

Horrible customer service from supervisor, Curtis! Curtis needs a job where is not helping or serving the public. The person (not Curtis) that took our order did not add the bread bowl for $1 as requested and she admitted to messing up the order. Curtis did not care about the mistake being made. He overcharged for the bread bowl since the system is unable to charge the actual amount of $1. I pointed out to him overcharging for the bread bowl and his response in a rude and condescending manner was "sorry about that" and proudly gave me the receipt for the bread bowl and he reprinted the first receipt (which I had in my hand and didn't ask for) to show me I wasn't charged for the bread bowl to prove it. Completely unnecessary! Never going back there again!

I absolutely love their food! Their bread bowls are sumptuous, and the soup is rich. Their sandwich melts are delicious, and their cookies are soft, chewy, yet chunky. I think it's worth the price.

I don't live in California anymore but when I did, I would go here a lot and get soup and sandwiches. It was always delicious! Recently I was doing a search because I was looking for a certain place I used to go to in California and this place popped up. I always had a positive experience going to Boudin.

Every time we come they are so short staffed. I feel terrible for the employees. Every costumer is cleaning off old tables to make space again. After eating there today half my family got sick. Cleanliness is far from where it needs to be.

I often crave the butternut squash bread bowl soup and this one is my go to in terms of location. Parking is sometimes hit or miss up front so you might have to walk a bit. They could use some TLC on the furniture/windows/tables a bit, sometimes makes those areas seem short staffed when you're dining there. Since it's soup I prefer to dine there and sometimes it's not the most inviting feel. Otherwise, the flavors of the butternut squash soup are the vibe all year round.

I like coming here because their sourdough bread bowl and clam chowder are delicious. This time I opted for a pick 2 (half turkey avocado sandwich and half clam chowder). Perfect pairing for a semi cold rainy day. There was a long line so I used the kiosk option. Done with my order within minutes and my food arrived within 10 min. Good service overall. One less star for dirty tables and dirty spoons. However staff is friendly and got me as new spoon and cleaned the tables. Will be back again soon!
