Reviews
Sat at the bar, where I received high level, attentive and informed service
A fairly traditional menu with a French bent. Most of the dishes were well executed, with the Oysters Rockefeller and deconstructed Marscapone Cheesecake especially good.
Unfortunately, the ($52) halibut was overcooked and the sauce was way too lemony – does anyone in the kitchen taste the sauce before it’s sent to the dining room?? Wasn’t up to snuff
As an aside, the couple next to me was complaining (to one another) about their Truffled Hamachi which they felt was overwhelmed by the truffle vinaigrette
Anyway, it’s a decent place for a special occasion or if on expense account, but don’t expect James Beard-level culinary innovation nor execution
Probably overpriced for what it is
My girlfriend ordered a dry martini with custom requests (pickled onions and olives). The bartender was happy to accommodate, and the martini was excellent. I ordered the Pistolero, a mezcal cocktail that can be hit or miss—this one absolutely delivered. Smooth, balanced, and beautifully presented with foam on top and subtle heart details. It felt like drinking a mezcal latte. The bar staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience memorable.
A few nights later, we returned for dinner and were seated in the bar-area seating (not directly at the bar). Jake took care of us for the entire meal, and his service stood out immediately. He’s sharp, thoughtful, and incredibly informed about the menu, wine pairings, and flavor profiles.
His recommendations were spot on, starting with the leeks and the beet mezzaluna—upscale comfort food that genuinely surprised us. For the second and third courses, Jake guided us to the red heritage chicken and a rich, pasta-style dish with shell noodles and a hearty beef-based gravy (I believe it was called something close to “lambuca” or “lambucha”). Whatever the name, it was deeply satisfying and beautifully executed.
Jake also helped us select an excellent bottle of red wine that paired perfectly with the second and third courses and elevated the entire meal. We finished with the apple dessert—layered, precise, and impressive—paired with a dessert wine Jake recommended.
Bottom line: Boca isn’t inexpensive, and the price point is higher than expected. But Jake’s service erased any concern about value. We never felt rushed, upsold, or overlooked—only genuinely taken care of.
If you want to dine somewhere that makes you feel like the most important table in the restaurant, this is it. And if you can, ask for Jake.
From the moment we arrived, we were treated with warmth and intention. The maître d’, Nicole, was absolutely incredible! She curated our entire experience from start to finish. She gave us the best table in the house, arranged a custom menu with out-of-this-world wine pairings, and ensured every course was flawlessly executed. Every single team member we encountered made us feel genuinely welcomed and celebrated.
We were congratulated on our 25th anniversary throughout the evening, offered a behind-the-scenes tour of the kitchen, and gifted a beautifully framed and signed menu personalized just for us.
Nicole and the entire Boca team turned what was already a special occasion into a memory we’ll never forget. This wasn’t just dinner… it was hospitality at its highest level.
If I could give 6 stars, I would.
The scallop and brussel sprouts are featured in the image. The ingredients were extremely fresh, and the scallop tasted like a steak.
