This restaurant is a really nice place with good food. First and foremost the ambience is very modern without feeling stuffy. Service is prompt and kind. Calamari was quite fresh, and the balsamic reduction was a different take on it, which I enjoyed. Lobster ravioli was delicious from the Rose tomato sauce which had the right amount of creaminess. I really like that they lobster ravioli had good clumps of lobster. they were not stingy with the lobster meat. Top it off with a dark and stormy cocktail, and I was good to go. Great flavor great meal would definitely recommend and come back.

In the warmer weather great outdoor seating by the water. Food was good. Same view indoors in the colder months. Service was polite and fast. Bar looked extensive. A great lace for a meeting or special occasion

Food is great! I was a little nervous because of previous reviews, but it looks like the restaurant has really stepped up its game. I came here with some dear friends upon their recommendation and we really enjoyed ourselves here! Views are great, but can get very sunny. I kind of wish there was fans or more umbrellas to help us avoid so much sun, but I can't really control that. Still worth sitting outside - love seeing the boats and ferry sailing around. Food is was better than expected. I wish I had taken more pictures. My friend got chicken and waffles, and it was nothing like the previous pictures! Great! Overall, vibes are great and worth checking. They even had a live person with music for the brunch.

Medium size party, fantastic view, Best server service we've had in years. We had clams in the half shell, octopus, calamari and lobster bisque, they were all delicious. We also had steak tips, Ciopinni, salmon, Boca Burger, clams casino, goat cheese salad, crab cakes and lamb lollipops. W the exception of the burger the food was amazing. Perfectly seasoned and cooked. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed and complimented the food. Sadly the guest of honor had the burger. We ordered it "medium , no pink and no char". It was FARRRR overcooked and dry, not only was the meat beyond seared /charred it was burnt. Even the bun was over charred... and we specifically asked for "No char" It was unfortunate. The Desserts were amazing and coffee/espresso were perfect Sangria and drinks were sooo good Highly recommend So wish the burger was Better. They had two bites and it sat. Other than the burger I wouid absolutely recommend this Place and I'll be going back

I came to boca oyster bar with a group of six. We made a reservation for brunch on a sunday. The place was not too crowded. And the service was very good. We ordered a variety of food and everyone enjoyed their dish. The highlight of the meal was the dessert. The beignets were incredible. The overall price was very reasonable. The only thing we did not order was oysters, funny enough. There's plenty of parking. There's also a lovely view of the harbor. Would eat here again!

We went here for a birthday celebration and had a great time! There's a couple of pros and cons about this place. Pros: Gorgeous waterfront view! My swordfish was excellent! It has great acidity and savoriness! The nachos and calamari were great appetizers as well! Cons: Weird choice of music for the setting, they were playing heavy metal. Some of my other guests thought their food was bland including the blackened chicken. Drinks are expensive, I got the Skinny B which is basically vodka and lemonade which costs 15$. Overall it seems like their menu is pretty hit or miss, but I really enjoyed my blackened swordfish steak!

Service was friendly but slow. Had to remind the server that the bottle we ordered was a happy hour special. The raw bar was amazing. We loved the clams. Portions were super generous and they did not skimp on the ingredients. Pretty view, but the vibe didn't match the location. But, hey- it's not our restaurant. The food was great, and we would come back again.
