Our first visit to The Bohemian Restaurant, 192 west Main Street, Brevard this week was slightly confusing. After a quick look at the menu, I was like, okay it’s Italian. Wrong. Read the menu, start to finish and got it. And it was fun & right up our alley!
“The Bohemian Restaurant invites you on a culinary journey around the world with our diverse menu, always offering something unexpected.”
“Carefully curated with a fusion of cultures.
Each bite will make you travel with us.
Experience a melting pot of flavors.”
Looking up at the entrance from the street, it felt like it was going to be an adventure getting up the stairs, through the arbor and lush plants, across the porch, and inside this once private home. All the plants made it feel quasi-tropical and semiprivate on the porch. Sit there in nice weather, if you can. The Bohemian Restaurant opened in June of 2023. It’s the previuos location of Hobnob Restaurant.
The building isn’t huge, but does have four different seating areas, each with their own character: the porch (lovely), a couple of main floor tables (good people/action watching), main floor bar (good conversation), and upstairs (airy, spaceous). Capacity isn’t huge, so I’d suggest making a reservation, just in case.
We each had a glass of wine. Bill, Scarlett Vine Cabernet (Maipo, Chile) and me, Ely Cabernet (Paso Robles, CA). Their menu isn’t huge, but there’s a nice variety. Bill’s first course, Soup du Jour Creamy Crab Bisque was good. My Side Salad had some chopped tomatoe, corn, onion, and cheese on spring mix. The dressing – light and mildly sweet – was one of the best I’ve had.
Our entrées are pictured below with descriptions. Know they were both generously portioned (half went home with each of us) and delicious. No dessert this time because we had Peach Cobbler I’d made waiting for us at home.
I asked our server if he and the other servers were related because they all had a similar “look”. He smiled and said, “in a way. We’re all Brazilian.” He went on to say they all go to Brevard College. That’s when I asked if they play soccer. Why, yes, they do! They’re all on the team and have a Brazilian Coach. I nailed it!
The Bohemian is a great addition to the Brevard dining scene!
