This restaurant is a real gem. One of the best and most fun places in Tampa. Great food, top notch service (you can tell the employees like working there), and really fun atmosphere. A+

For our first visit, the food and the service were excellent, and I love the locally grown and freshly made concept. The problem was that the very loud rock music and overall level of noise throughout the restaurant made it impossible to have a conversation without practically yelling at the person across the table from you. Also, one of the valets was extremely non-helpful, simply handing me my keys and pointing to my car across the lot even though my mother is clearly handicapped.

Very disappointed in the overall experience but despite the mishaps with our entrees, the service was the worst we’ve ever had. We have always had exceptional service at Boca and unfortunately tonight was just a complete loss.

Great farm- to- table execution. Everything we had was prepared perfectly. The waitress, Karen (I believe, she was left-handed), was very attentive Long with the hostess, manager, and bar staff. One could tell every very little bite was prepared with care by the kitchen. There is an option on the menu to buy the kitchen staff a beer (a few dollars), which I recommend; because they work hard.

Great food and service as always. However, prices have gone way up over the year.. $14 for beautiful but tiny tuna tartare; Thai salad increased from $7 to $12. Still wonderful food, but no longer a midprice/good value choice.
