Skirt steak was outstanding, as was the Boca Chocolate desert. Too much garlic butter on Mahi Mahi. Forgot to ask for salad dressing on the side and it was overdressed. Service was stellar + easy substitutions.

My parents came from out of town and wanted to take my kids and me out and we alll loved our food. We have been many times but the menu changed a bit so we got to try some new food and it was fantastic. Highly recommend. Food is always good and service is always good as well. Unique menu items like Korean meatloaf
