No words can describe the amazing experience we had at Boka. The professionalism from the staff and the “flavor bombs” from all of the dishes we had were second to none. Thank you!!

A unique dinning experience. It was our first time and the staff did an excellent job of guiding us to a wonderful experience. We got to enjoy several different types of seafood and tried two different steak types. Everything was prepared well and tasted fantastic. The sommelier was helpful and paired our meal with very nice wine.

We had a wonderful time, but at the end of the meal we had difficulty signing into our QR code Lettuce Eats account to get our points. I don't think we ever were able to figure it out (my husband had to try even though it was his birthday and I didn't want him to have to deal with the bill.) Please streamline this and/or just give paper bills. Thank you.
