    Wings
    David V.

    Excellent service from Cassidy at the bar. Very tasty food. I got some wings which were very good and perfectly grilled. They are also served with the sauce on the side, which I appreciate. Drinks were also good. I got a jalapeno Margarita called the "Gringo". It was served with the glass rim dusted in Tajin, which made it perfect.

    I've been to The Boca Raton location a couple of times and they hit the mark every time. I am always seated quickly even though the place is very popular. The service is excellent and quick even during a busy hour like Friday or Saturday evening. And the food and drink always comes out tasting delicious. Great place to start or end an evening and they even have a great happy hour on most days too!

    We did an Uber Eats splurge tonight. An honest review: Everything was packed carefully, arrived hot, and earlier than expected. Smash burger: amazing flavor, could have taken it off the heat earlier, but so good! Chicken tender platter: ok but I've had better. Full rack of ribs: so good. Perfectly cooked. Great sauce. Salmon crispy rice: blah. Calamari tower: really good. Crispy. Bomb sauce! Wings: dry, dry, dry. Cheeseburger egg rolls: phenomenal! Truffle fries: normally love these, but sooo overpowering. Would definitely order again but no wings, crispy rice, or tenders.

    My friend and I dined outside on the patio. We had a small dog with us and the hostess mentioned the dog wasn't allowed on the chair. I informed her that we had a towel for the dog and that she's super small. We ended up putting the dog on the chair and every staff member that walked by absolutely loved it. It ended up not being an issue, but it was a bit of a strange encounter at first. For dinner, we ordered tuna tartar, a chicken Caesar wrap and sweet potato fried. We asked for all the food to come out at the same time, but that didn't happen. It was also really hard to hear because they were blasting music on the patio. The food itself was delicious! We also had good service. If the food wasn't so good, this would've been a three star review.

    Chicken Tenders
    Steve G.

    Heard this place has good chow, so finally stopped here for a drink and a few snacks during their happy hour to check it out. I like it! The place is large, and being off season wasn't too crowded. The drinks we ordered were good. Basically just a few different beers and a margarita. BTW, check out the $29 Millionaire Margarita on the menu... wonder if it's 3 times better? Drinks were very good. The Chicken Tenders were excellent... good sauces too. The Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls were ok. I liked it enough to come back and have dinner. The staff was friendly and service was very good. So large, can imagine it gets loud and a little crazy when it's busy.

    I was out with old friends, so I really wanted to like this place but sadly their downfall was entirely self-written... - The ambiance was quiet when we ambled in after a movie, not a lot of people outside or in, so we bellied up to the bar. - If you're going to name your restaurant Tap 42, and if you're going to proclaim yourself a craft beer destination, being out of the first two beers we named and having at least 6 empty taps showing was a bad start. - Eventually, libations in hand we checked out the menu and ordered a couple of snacks. Big mistake. * The beauty of a well done tuna tartare is the simplicity. The beautiful colors highlighting the clean fresh taste of tuna. Even when "spicy" is added to the title, tuna remains the star of the show. Not so here, as we were served a softball scoop (there is no other word) of something that no longer resembled tuna OR tartare. So much spicy mayo was mixed in that the tuna taste was nowhere to be found, and served with malanga chips so stale we had to tear them rather than break them into dipping size. * The Calamari fared no better, encrusted with a thick tasteless breading, and cooked well past the point of flavorless rubber. At least its sauce was good. The ONLY reason this review gets 2 stars instead of 1 was our bartender and server Gabriel, a shining light who deserves better support than the restaurant offered him this night. Friendly, personable, and constantly in motion behind the bar helping everyone but still managing to make sure he checked on us.

    The grilled salmon zen bowl is amazing! One of my favorite dished ever. So flavorful, love the touch of sweet. Tyler is great to visit! Amazing service, always. Great trendy feel, and catchy music. Can't wait to try the wagyu noodles one of these days!

    Sat at the bar, good service, good music, nice bartender. The chicken lettuce wraps and spicy ahi tuna tartar was absolutely delicious. The Strawberry Paloma pitcher was good and served out a decent amount of drinks!

    Dirty martini

    Solid spot for the Happy Hour escapades. We showed up on a Monday at 5pm. The Monday special for $12 burgers caught our eyes. I started it off right with a Dirty Martini w/ bleu-cheese stuffed olives. After the drinks started kicking in, I went with the Drunken Goat -- a savory lamb burger topped with whipped goat cheese, arugula, onion marmalade, and dijonaise. Good burger -- I was less fond of the purple jam raspberry haze spread. I thought the sweetness of the jam clashed with the burger vibe... but you live, you learn. Next time, the Prohibition Burger looks like the solid winner. Great spot to unwind and wander. The calamari looked appetizing.

    Forgot how FIRE THE FOOD HERE IS . Had this for my undergrad graduation, and took a friend here for a celebration with her continued education, boy was I craving more of everything I had. The truffle Mac and cheese was a different style of taste I can't quite describe, but it was well savory with cheesy flavor and the Lamb burger like a tangy sweet taste not tangy in the sense of spicy, but sweet. ‍ you'd have to try or consider it . Also our waiter was pleasant in conversation as well as recommendations. Just a lovely place to be seated inside at night when FL actually receives lovely temperatures and weather. The atmosphere was full of people's laughters and enjoyed moments. Ooh and the Desserts. "They were soooo good made you wanna SLAP YA MAMA"

    Short rib sliders & sweet potatoes
    Grace P.

    Tap42 is a solid social gathering spot where the menu is pub grub with some not so pub grub entrees. Parking was tight on a Friday night the week of Christmas but we circled around a few times and found a spot. Valet is also available but I didn't see the price. We ordered the Short rib sliders, 2 burgers, sweet potato fries and the chicken Parmesan rigatoni alla vodka sauce. The service friendly but a little slow. Everyone enjoyed their food. One of the burgers was supposed to be a smash burger but the burger wasn't "smashed" enough for a crispy texture. Overall this spot is a fun hangout with a group of friends and we would come back only if we are in the area.

    A long time favorite. Wonderful atmosphere with plenty of indoor, outdoor, and bar seating (both indoor and outdoor as well). Architecture is a nice mix of rustic and sleek with high ceilings and tons of natural lighting as well as mood lighting for the evenings. Beyond happy with: Crispy Calamari, Short Rib Beef Sliders, Shrimp Cocktail, Chopped Salad, Tuna Poke Salad, and The Drunken Goat. Service has always been great with fun loving bartenders. Definitely a go to for me!

    Steak and eggs. Espresso Martini.

    My favorite place to have Sunday brunch. The food is always great. The drinks are on point. I usually sit at the bar and the bartender is always attentive. There is always a dj playing the best music.

    How packed is this place on Saturday nights?

    They are usually crowded. But tables are available.

    Do you have NFL ticket on direct tv?

    I haven't seen the answer; Great question perhaps they can get it, instead of going elsewhere....

    Do they have an event room?

    No they only have large group and a big bar area.

    Would this be a good place for a party of 8 to view the Super Bowl? Looking for large tv screens to view the event. Thanks

    Yes they have big space and lots of TVs

    Do they have bottomless bloody mary and mimosa at brunch?

    Yes, they have a Sunday special. However, be certain to get there early to get a good seat.

Although it has a beautiful menu of wines and spirits, we stuck to their filtered water, and asked KC for any recommendations for lunch. He was very engaging, a wonderful communicator, and we made our selections which started with the bacon wrapped dates (YUM). Prior to my order, I mentioned a dietary restriction and KC promptly went to the kitchen to make an inquiry. I ordered the trout with lentil ragout, and my husband ordered a margarita pizza. The atmosphere was very peaceful, with unintrusive music, and we really did enjoy getting to know KC as he made sure that we were satisfied with every plate. This restaurant is upscale, yet with value pricing. Altogether, my husband and I encourage you to enjoy a lovely meal, and make sure to ask for KC! You won't be disappointed!

Also loved the atmosphere once again, it's just a very nice, open place to enjoy a meal and have a drink. We got a bunch of appetizers to start. The house made Ricotta with cracked pepper and olive oil was very delicious. I also loved the crispy zucchini slices, which were topped with peppadew peppers and a chili vinaigrette. Outstanding stuff. The seared ahi tuna was next level. The fish was fresh and beautifully seated and the mix of cucumber, aji amarillo, pineapple, cilantro and wasabi cream was sensational. One of the best dishes they make at Sixty Vines. The absolute best of the bunch was the truffle fries! They were amazing. They are basically crispy layered potatoes, almost like stacks of filo dough, fried and topped with pecorino, chives and lemon truffle cream. They were so good we ordered a second one! Considering how wonderful everything was to this point, we were expecting nothing but great things for the next course. However they completely dropped the ball and basically ruined our meal with lackluster entrees. Our party ordered the steak fries with chimichurri sauce, the double cabrenet burger, and several filet mignons. The amount of time it took to get the food was unreasonable. Once the appetizers were finished we had to wait somewhere around 20 to 25 minutes to get our mains, and the place was not that busy. I assume that the waitress just forgot or was busy with something else. As for the food, the quality of the steaks was not good all around. Everybody who got the filet mignon commented that the texture was chalky and weird. They were also all overcooked. And oddly, they decided to slice the steak before serving it, so it was very dry. Why would you pre slice a steak, all that's going to do is let the juices seep out and make the temperature drop. I honestly don't get it. The steak that came with the steak fries, I think it was a skirt steak, was also not the best cut. It was super fatty and a little chewy. The fries were good though but the meat was terrible. Finally the burger was completely overdone despite the person ordering it medium rare. Overall, not the best ending to a meal that started with such amazing dishes. Really striking contrast. And actually it made me think that I probably will not go back to Sixty Vines anytime soon. For a $350 meal they have to be doing a lot better. Dried out, overcooked steaks and burgers isn't going to cut it.

I spoke with a manager after the first delivery and she was very understanding. She told me that I would receive something in the mail to make up for the missing chicken. Nothing ever came. I will still go back to the restaurant because I love it, but this will make me hesitate before ordering with Door Dash again.

How it sits us at a booth directly next to the bar which had been empty since we arrived that 40 minutes earlier. Seriously? In the meantime, the bar overflowed with the usual selection of Boca, babes, and pretentious men with bad rugs. Service was good, however, and the food was definitely B or a Level,, in fact, my French Dip sandwich was one of the best I've ever had. My dining partner could barely finish their fish sandwich due to it's sheer size. It is worth mentioning that the menu definitely comes at a price point higher than most chain restaurants. If they can only provide the dining experience without all of the locals who jammed the place and carrying on conversations as loudly as they can, you really have something.

It was very good after it was a little bit on the not so hot side but other than that, it was good the sides coleslaw that it brought delicious too. My wife ordered the fish sandwich and it was amazing. Also, fries are very good. The server that took care of us was very nice and pretty good when it came to following up and taking care of us she even opened the bottle of champagne that we ordered, and she was very talkative and had a good conversation.

I ordered a classic breakfast with eggs, bacon, home fries, and pancakes, and it was underwhelming across the board. Our waiter mentioned he's rarely seen anyone finish it, and I'm not convinced that's due to the portion size. Nice atmosphere, but the food could use improvement.
