We've visited Hooks & Fish a few times now, mainly because of their grilled options. That's really…read morewhat keeps bringing us back--our group consistently orders grilled, and the food itself has always been satisfying. We haven't explored the fried items or much else on the menu, so we can only speak to that side, but in that regard, no complaints. That said, the overall experience as a customer especially when you're unfamiliar with the area or just stopping in between meetings or on a lunch break--needs improvement. After ordering and paying, being directed to leave the line, drive around multiple corners and blocks, and then return just to find parking (which can take 30+ minutes) is frustrating and impractical. It turns what should be a quick and convenient stop into a time-consuming hassle. Another ongoing issue is consistency with the grilled group option. Even though it's listed (and often stapled to the menu), we find ourselves having to ask about it almost every visit. Many times it's unavailable--they've run out, it's not being offered that day, or there's some other reason it can't be ordered. That kind of uncertainty makes it difficult to plan, especially when that's the main reason we choose to come here. From a business standpoint, there should be a more efficient system in place for handling customer flow and parking, along with better consistency and communication around menu availability. The food keeps us interested, but the logistics and unpredictability make it difficult to justify stopping in regularly. In short: great grilled options when available, but the ordering process and overall experience need serious rethinking.

Hooks Fish has a snapper and fries combo for $16.99. However, I don't like fries, so I asked the…read morecounter girl if I could swap the fries for okra, and she said yes. I didn't place my order right away because I was still unsure, and when I made up my mind, the manager helped me, and I ordered the snapper combo, but swapped the fries for okra. When he gave me the receipt, I realized the total bill was higher than it should have been, and I saw that he hadn't swapped the fries and had overcharged me. I asked him why he overcharged me when the counter girl told me I could swap them. He told me he couldn't do that. I told him that was ridiculous because I don't eat fries and would have to throw them away, and he said he'd only sell it to me that way. So I canceled everything and left... the customer service was terrible!!!!!!

As we were getting hungry, so we decided to stop by Ocean Deli to get something to snack on…read more Ocean Deli is nearly identical to a Subway, basically sub sandwiches and ice cream for takeout. The place is spotlessly clean and the staff friendly and helpful. I had their Italian sub which came loaded with hot capicola, salami, pepperoni, provolone, oil, vinegar and oregano, all of which was very fresh and tasty. My partner grabbed a hot pastrami on rye which I tasted and found to be very good.

Second visit. I do not give out many 5 star ratings, but…read moreSen Thai is deserving. Food uniformly delicious from the Garlic edamame to the crispy duck in hot garlic sauce. This venue is more than a 20 min drive from my home. Very much worth the inconvenience in getting there. Again, this is very small restaurant. Make reservations.

Boca Raton can be... polite…read more Safe. Predictable. A place where flavor sometimes shows up wearing loafers. And then there's Chow Thai Cuisine, which kicks the door in and reminds you that spice is not a suggestion -- it's a lifestyle. Let's begin with the Tom Kha Gai. This soup isn't comfort. It's therapy with a PhD. Coconut milk silky enough to calm your nervous system. Galangal and lemongrass punching through like they have something to prove. Lime snapping you back to attention. It's hot, bright, layered -- the kind of dish that makes you pause mid-sentence and just nod. Fire. Absolute fire. Then came the Spicy Virgin Chicken -- and whoever named it that undersold it. This thing was off the chain. Bold heat. Real heat. Not Florida "mild but we call it spicy." The kind of balanced burn that builds instead of bludgeons. Flavor first. Heat second. Respect maintained. You can tell when a kitchen knows what it's doing. This one does. And here's the real test -- the only test that matters: Would we come back? Not "maybe." Not "if we're in the area." Not "with a coupon." Yes. Without hesitation. The Thai tea deserves its own paragraph. Creamy, sweet, but with this subtle floral undertone that sneaks in at the end like a quiet encore. It doesn't scream. It lingers. It knows exactly what it's doing. Now the tragedy. I didn't order the spring rolls. Why? Because I ran out of stomach. Which is both a failure and a victory -- because now I have a reason to return. And I will. The decor? Unexpectedly transportive. You walk in and it feels like you left Boca for a minute. Warm lighting, layered textures, a quiet otherworldly vibe. Not cheesy. Not forced. Just enough to shift your mood. Some restaurants serve food. Chow Thai serves intention.

Great dining spot for families, couples and people grabbing take out. Sushi is fresh and one of our favorite is the Seafood house special fried rice and Shrimp Pad Thai. Portions are big size enough for two or you can take home left overs. This spot is small, clean and very low key with a simple decor nothing fancy. We feel comfortable and relaxed everytime we come here. No need to dress fancy. Staff is super friendly, efficient and keeps things moving. Always a great spot whenever we want some Thai food or Japanese sushi rolls.

I'm not sure if it was because she was dining it . I ordered almost 60$ of food . My first complaint was that they were unable to swap out chicken chop Suey instead of chow mein ? Really it was lacking flavor & small amount of chicken . The egg rolls were super tiny - I then ordered Shrimp Pad Thai not many shrimp & not like NY Authentic Pad Thai . Definitely disappointed. I paid cash / they offer free items I only wanted the Crab Rangoon instead of General Tso chicken they gave me 4 instead of an entire order of 8 ! Then I asked for one cup of house duck sauce they charged me 60 cents for a tiny cup . I am sorry but if you want customers to return you don't do this especially I'm paying cash & it was a large order . In summary you lost a customer ...

My mom is not that big of a sushi eater but does like tempura one's. She ate some of the super crunch and really liked it. My brother ordered the Mexican roll and he enjoyed his as well.

Tuna, Hamachi, and squid inside with refreshing Japanese pickles, avocado, scallions topped with masago. Good size and well made for both choices.

Both of us chose angel hair as our pasta. We were first given rolls -- half garlic and half plain. I had the plain rolls which were hot from the oven and quite good with butter. The two chicken entrees vane next. The only difference seemed to be that my entree had mushrooms and his had capers. Both chicken pieces were breaded. The angel hair pasta might have been better if it was a little less cooked and not swimming in sauce! I asked for some more lemon wedges and that helped the taste somewhat, but the dish was still a bit too soupy for me. I'm glad we came to try them. Now we know.
