Donovans Meatery is the revitalized Boca that use to be open but closed. As you enter the setting is reminiscent of Boca with the hanging glass bottle lights with the bar centralized. We were quickly sat down and the staff seemed quite friendly however, this changed. From our seat we could see the kitchen staff preparing food. We started by ordering the prime rib poutine with drinks. The poutine was mediocre at best, but the espresso martini, and old fashioned were good. My wife ordered prime rib and myself ordered a 16oz lacquered delmonico medium rare. Upon arrival of our food as I cut into my steak it was noted to be done with very minor pink. Upon waving the server down and asking them to replace it this is when things changed. As it was taken back to the kitchen they could be visibly seen complaining about us saying “pink” is medium rare. The kitchen staff continued to stare at us and make comments, This made us very uncomfortable. The steak replaced was smaller than my initial 16oz steak as well but it was acceptable doneness. We finished our food and left but for an evening spending 200+ dollars your money is better spent elsewhere.

I’m a little late on this review, but better late than never! We recently celebrated my brother‘s 50th birthday at Donovan‘s. The food and service was exceptional. But the best part was that I called ahead and asked if they could do something “obnoxious” to celebrate my brother . I hadn’t known that I was talking to the owner. Right after our drinks were delivered in walked this large, balloon display, it was even better than I could’ve imagined . We all got a huge laugh out of it, several pictures, and my brother loved it. I neglected to get the owner‘s name, but thank you, thank you, thank you! You hit it out of the park. Run, don’t walk to visit this place. I’ll be back again soon!

I made a reservation for our 25th anniversary dinner. We have only been in the area for about a year and have want to try Donovan’s.
I didn’t realize they closed an hour after our 8pm reservation. When we went in, we asked the hostesses if it was too late for us to try enjoy our night, with only an hour. I quote, “You have come here and we will take care of you!”
We were so happy! They found a perfect, quiet spot for us and were glad to serve us.
Our server, Patrick, was amazing! Attentive, cordial, knowledgeable and never seemed to rush us or anything! Excellent, excellent server!
Everything we ordered was amazing!
I had the seasonal old fashioned, do warm and perfectly balanced!
We ordered the Prime Rib Poutine and it is a LARGE appetizer. Hot, crispy and melty. Delicious with the horseradish dip.
I ordered the Duck Con Fit. This was truly special! I ordered medium, as suggested. So perfect with breast medallions and leg. The meat was soft and savory. Very tender, perfect seasoning and texture.
My husband had the Cowboy ribeye with mushroom risotto and it was a beautiful steak and matched in flavor! The risotto!
Everything tasted like what it should. Not salty or flavor enhanced. True, delicious flavors. Really amazing food!
We were offered dessert and declined. We were so full!
The fact that they welcomed us knowing that we didn’t want to be rushed, and we weren’t at all. We wound up leaving right at 9:00 after a perfect dinner and excellent service.
We also received several congratulations on our anniversary!
We will definitely be back! This establishment truly cares about their patrons!!!
Thank you for a very enjoyable dinner and evening!
This is likely to be our GO-TO for anniversary dinners! ❤️

Wow! Donovan’s Meatery absolutely exceeded every expectation. From the moment we walked in, the service was flawless. Our host, Hayden, set the tone with a warm, welcoming energy that made the entire experience feel special. Our fabulous female bartender and Jason, who seamlessly balanced roles as both bartender and server, delivered some of the best hospitality I’ve experienced anywhere as of recent. The cocktails were crafted with precision, the food was thoughtful and delicious, and every detail felt intentional. Donovan’s is truly doing it right — an exceptional dining experience from start to finish. Impressed!

We made reservations for 11 people for 7pm. We were seated right away, placed our food and appetizers but sat for two hours with just drinks and appetizers. Finally received food, several steaks were undercooked. The served Hayden did his best but was left alone without support from his manger after our table on more than one occasion asked to speak to a manger. We were offered a free dessert and wine bottle to be comped. They didn’t have the dessert we wanted, we settled for a slice of chocolate mouse that was overly sweet. The bottle of wine was not comped, just one glass of wine. The manger came and spoke to one side of the table. She didn’t even make eye contact with the other side of the table. The whole experience was mid. Sad the sever was made to take the blame for the manager’s lack of accountability of short staff in the kitchen, short staff of servers, and overall experience.

Went to Donovan’s Meatery for the first time and let me just say the staff here is SUPER FANTASTIC! Seriously, amazing energy all around.
Huge shoutout to Hayden✨✨ the absolute bomb.com. He recommended my entire experience from the drink, to the appetizer, to the entrée, and everything was spot on. I didn’t take photos this visit, but trust me, I’ll be back very soon for a full food review because the food was FAB!
The only issue we experienced was with my mom’s meal. Her salmon and mashed potatoes were served cold. The staff did explain they were trying to bring all the meals out together since my mom arrived late, which we appreciated. However, instead of preparing a fresh piece, the salmon was repeatedly put back on the grill after she had already cut into it, which honestly didn’t feel ideal.
That said, overall I still can’t complain the food quality and customer service were genuinely good, and the staff made the experience enjoyable.
Definitely looking forward to coming back!

The atmosphere and the service were great. Yet, we ordered two tomahawk’s and we received very fatty cut’s of meat, lacked flavor. We were misled and told that the special was 32 ounces of meat and it was shareable.
The bone took up a good portion of the weight. We did leave hungry. Highly expensive! A “shareable tomahawk” with two coffees came to about $170. We came with 10 people. Probably spent close to $1000 dollars all together. We Called them back to give them an opportunity to redeem themselves, because we were disappointed and they offered us a free appetizer.
You may check my reviews,
I usually have nothing but kind things to say about every restaurant, but I must say for us Dohnovon’s is definitely not worth the price.
Hopefully they can use this review to make some adjustments.
Maybe other things on the menu are better. But we are not willing to give them another try.

We had the wagyu beef steak, potato dippers, smoked Mac n cheese (for the kiddo), espresso martini, charcuterie board for a starter, twin lobster tails, and the lacquered Delmonico. Pros: BEST espresso martini Ive had. My delmonico was savory and a lot like a prime rib. Charcuterie was amazing (reach for the hot honey) sauce for the potato dippers was a delicious black pepper aioli. cons: Wagyu was VERY mid, my lobster tail was WAY overcooked, Mac n cheese was super salty.
The servers were amazing. The cooks were a little loud and not professional. The kitchen is wide open so they should be mindful of what they are saying.
Atmosphere was darker and really cavern like. Very cool decor but there were fruit flies EVERYWHERE which by the end of my meal had us swatting like maniacs and my daughter was grossed out.
I’d say this was more of a $30 per person type of restaurant. Not $100.

We loved the warm, welcoming environment at Donovan’s. The food was superb with that grilled woodsy flavor.

I tried Donovan’s Meatery for the first time, and I will certainly return. Upon checking in for my reservation, I was greeted by a very kind woman (whom I assumed was the manager), and she instantly brought a smile to my face. From there, I became even more excited to experience this new (to me) restaurant. I ordered 1 lobster tail, crispy brussel sprouts, macaroni and cheese, accompanied by the seasonal old-fashioned, which turned out to be peach flavored. I’m not really a fan of the peach syrup used, but it was palatable. While the food was good, I’m rating my overall experience 4 stars because the bartender seemed to be stretched thin, creating longer than necessary wait times.
