    Grouper with swiss chard
    Louis M.

    Ever since coming to South Florida, we've been on the hunt for excellent seafood, only to be repeatedly disappointed. Well, finally, we have arrived - Boca Fish House delivers on some of the best seafood in the business. Truly, it was an outstanding culinary experience. The bread was incredible: Freshly baked and served with an oil-vinegar-parmesan cheese dip. The Lobster bisque was solid, though not exceptional. All of the fish was excellent, in particular my grouper, served with Swiss chard and corn salsa - all the textures were distinct and stood out. Service was cordial and attentive throughout the meal. The only disappointment was the ambiance. We sat outdoors and were distracted by music and nearby competing venues, giving a dining experience that felt disjointed with the high-quality service we enjoyed. If possible, sit indoors, meaning reservations are necessary.

    This was our first time trying Boca Fish House. It's located in a strip mall and it was a great find. The dining room is small with a few seats at the bar. We had a 8pm reservation but arrived early and chose to dine at the bar. They also have a few tables outside near the entrance of the main dining room. It was extremely busy but the staff were efficient and attentive. Let me say the seafood is amazing here! I can see why they're so busy. I was on a date with my guy and our entrees were both delicious! The sweet potato crusted grouper was just incredible! Loved the flavors and how well the dish prepared. The shellfish pan roast was art on a plate! It had Lobster, shrimp, scallops, clams, mussels swimming in a tasty brandy infused tarragon tomato sauce. All the seafood was cooked to perfection and the creamy sauce made this dish really stand out. Although the restaurant lacks ambience it makes up for it with their incredibly fresh seafood! If you're a seafood lover you must make a visit to Boca Fish House.

    Grilled octopus

    Very good food. We shared steamed mussels in a white wine sauce, crudo with passion fruit sauce, and grilled octopus. All were seasoned and cooked well and very nicely balanced with sweet and salt with textures! We shared the mixed grill for our meal which was very tasty and the 3 sides of roasted root veggies, mushroom risotto and truffle Parmesan fries. No dessert because we were stuffed. Service was good. My favorite was the mushroom risotto side!! So yummy!!

    Ordered the sautéed Chilean Sea Bass Potato Gnocchi, wild mushrooms, baby spinach, heirloom tomatoes, garlic, fresh herbs, white wine lemon butter and my boyfriend ordered the Pan Seared Giant Sea Scallops, roasted root vegetables, crispy Brussels sprouts, sweet potato puree Florida citrus butter. The sea bass was so amazing, it was one of the best meals I ever had and paired great with the Sauvignon blanc that the server, Jen, suggested. The sea-bass was perfectly cooked and crispy on the outside. I tried my boyfriend scallops and they were cooked perfectly and the sweet potato puree really complimented the dish. The strawberry shortcake dessert was excellent. You could tell everything was super fresh. I recommend making a reservation because they have limited seating. Jen was excellent. Can't wait to come back!

    We ate here again with another couple. Same set up as before, reservations for outside at 5pm. Located in a strip mall, outside covered space shared with a Jersey Mike's and Japanese Sushi restaurant. The fact that this restaurant didn't have every table taken filled when they opened suggests to me that people just don't know how good the food is at this place. For every Snowbird and visitor to this area, this is a must go to place for all of you. The food here is just simply the best. The chef here is gem and a master of flavor. I ordered the Seafood Pan Roast and have to say every piece of fish was a just fantastic. The sauce that accompanied the dish was 100% drinkable and the crispy bed of pasta upon which it was all served was clever and delicious. I would suggest having at hand a piece of their delicious bread to sop up every bit of sauce. I also have to call out the creme brulee as one of the best versions of that dish anywhere. Can't say enough about this place. I will be back. You all should give it a try!

    My lunch, scallops with sweet potato and assorted veggies.
    Barb C.

    Still wonderful. This time we had the assorted seafood pan. Lobster tail, scallops, shrimp, clams and mussels. Every bite was yummy. My husband had the sirloin. He shared a small bite and it was delicious. Mixed green salad to start and chocolate cake to end. All around a great meal.

    Last night my husband & I took my in-laws to Boca Fish House to celebrate their 65th wedding anniversary. First of all, the meal, beginning with the hot rolls to our entrees, were delicious! Secondly, the servers were lovely. At the end of our meal, they surprised us with two desserts adorned with candles for my in-laws special event. We were impressed & will definitely return next time we are in the area. The amazing thing is that I only mentioned my in-laws wedding anniversary in passing, as I made the reservation. One thing to note is that the restaurant is small, so a reservation is the best way to go.

    Chef/owner Daniel Cournoyer is doing a remarkable job at his very popular spot. This is probably my 5th visit since I discovered BFH a little over a year ago, and each time the small, intimate space has been filled with happy patrons. No surprise, the chef continues to wow us with his excellent cuisine. Here you can count on the freshest top-quality fish, cooked perfectly and with imagination. Each dish always seems to have an element that takes it to another level. Chef Cournoyer is doing all the cooking... and it's so intimate, you feel a connection to the kitchen. The plates arrive piping hot... always love that, so rare. All the salads are great. Tonight, I chose my favorite...Crispy Romaine with Granny Smith Apple Hearts of palm, crumbled blue cheese, pancetta, candied walnuts, white balsamic vinaigrette. Great combination of flavors, really a light dish. Others enjoyed their excellent Caesars. Don't overlook the warm rolls they bring out with their special dip... so good and perfect along with the salads. The Jumbo Lump Crab Cake with roasted corn salsa, grape tomatoes, baby arugula, garlic-cilantro- chili aioli is a real winner. My entre tonight was fantastic. Jumbo Lump Crab Stuffed Giant Shrimp, sweet pea risotto, white wine lemon butter. Loved it! Tuna Steak, crispy fried rice cake, stir fried vegetables, garlic chili aioli, tomato salsa was also a winner. Crème Brule and Key Lime rounded out another great meal here. For wine, a bottle of ZD Chardonnay was perfect. (also avail by the glass) Samantha provided service to match the incredibly high quality of the meal. She's knowledgeable, personable and efficient. No online reservations. Need to call. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

    An absolute gem! Great menu options. Friendly welcome. Warm rolls to start with a special dip. The food is outstanding--every dish is packed with flavor. The crab cakes are perfectly crisp and delicious, and the grilled octopus is unbelievably tasty. The scallops were large, perfectly Cooked and so tasty. The space is small, so reservations are a must, but the cozy atmosphere adds to the charm. Highly recommend! I Will definitely be going back to taste the homemade desserts made by the chef's wife.

The chips (thinly sliced potatoes that look like chips) that came along with the fish, they were soggy. The shrimp tacos were okay, but the taco shell itself was a little stale and crispy like it has been sitting under a light heating lamp for a while. The coleslaw was good. The best thing was the hush puppies, they were good. I was so disappointed that I threw my entire meal of fish and chips in the garbage because it was not good at all.

    We had such a great experience at Eddie V's in Boca!…read more We called the day of for a Saturday night reservation, and the hostess was incredibly polite and friendly, which made a great first impression. Our options were 5:00 or 8:45, so we took the 8:45 reservation. We arrived around 8:20 to see if they might be able to seat us a little earlier. We were greeted right away, told our table would be ready soon, and offered champagne while we waited. Such a nice touch! The restaurant itself is beautiful. It's dark, modern, upscale, and romantic, with a large bar and lounge featuring live jazz music, as well as a separate dining area. We ended up sitting in the lounge and loved the atmosphere. Our server, Adrianna, was extremely friendly and attentive. We started with drinks. We ordered the Private Plane, which comes with a cute little paper airplane and a large square ice cube, and a vodka martini. Both were excellent and strong, which I personally prefer! We decided to do several appetizers instead of entrées and ordered the lobster tacos, Wagyu dumplings, and burrata and tomato salad. Everything was excellent with great portions and tons of flavor. The lobster tacos were outstanding and probably my favorite lobster tacos I've ever had. Then came dessert. We couldn't decide between the Bananas Foster and the brownie with ice cream. Adrianna told us she had an idea and would take care of it. She came back with both desserts on the house! We were completely surprised. They were both so good that I honestly couldn't decide which one I liked better, so I'm glad we got to try both! The manager also stopped by to check on us, which was another nice touch. What really stood out was how special they made us feel. It was just an ordinary Saturday date night for us, but from the champagne when we arrived to the service and surprise desserts, they turned it into something memorable. Excellent food, drinks, atmosphere, and service. We will absolutely be back!

We entered and met Sandy, the nicest yet down to earth hostess. She greeted us and walked us to tables toward the back which would accompany 3 people. This was away from the Steel Drums which was the main reason we were visiting the establishment. I mentioned I had called previously to make sure the steel drums were definitely playing tonight and we really wanted to be seated closer to watch and hear the entertainment. All the seats close to where he was were 2 top tables or the bar but my son is 12- so that was a "no." She then said we could sit at 2 tables but we couldn't move the chairs. We said that was GREAT as it was close to the music and we didn't mind sitting in a "line" as that's kinda like sitting at the bar. We were very pleased and had the nicest server who was very attentive and helpful. I think the manager was a little confused as to why Sandy sat our family like that but what she did was provide excellent customer service and helped our family have a peaceful relaxing evening. And, for that - Sandy is the best and say "Hi" to her next time you go there. She will do her best to assist you. We will be back to the Nauti-Dawg. The food was really good and very filling. Customer service was outstanding. And, the atmosphere is very relaxing. 5 stars from our family!
