Much better experience this time around.My buddy and I arrived early so we could get a bite and smoke a cigar.I asked the host if we could grab a table on the side of the Biscuit,since we were smoking,and did not want to disturb anybody,he said no problem,and within minutes our waitress arrived.Our server was great,took care of us ,inside and outside.We both had the Gumbo,and ordered wings when we went inside.Both were very good.Since we checked in early and ate outside,they allowed us to use our food order for the min.purchase for our table.Once again ,disappointed they did not have Guinness draft.But unlike last time,our server brought me a coffee stout which was just as good.Dana Fuchs,puts on a show like no other,gives you plenty of personnel insight into her songs,which most of them she wrote.Great performance,and we were lucky enough to talk to her after the show and have a picture taken.Other than the price of the tickets,which were $35 for a front row table,the bill was very reasonable.10 wings, 12 bucks, Gumbo $9,plus a couple of beers and a few cocktails.Overall a great night,it helps not sitting in the back,if you go to the Biscuit,pay the extra 5 bucks for a floor table,its worth it. read more

Great live music venue with local and other bands I saw tonight Brent Cowles - what a voice WOW! Uproot Hootenanny which are always quite the performers. Great to enjoy their music again and see the whole audience have fun. The Michigan Rattlers lived up to their reputation. Nice guys and great music. What an enjoyable nite! read more

First time there on a Monday night the music was absolutely great. Amazingly enough the food was also great My only concern is how to make reservations because you need one to be seated. When you call you get a very generic recording and never get to talk to anybody or at least I didn't the 5 times I called read more

Could not attend June 3rd show due to tropical storm warnings in South Florida and trip being cancelled. Called and emailed numerous times before and after show to ask for at least a credit for future show. They have never even responded. They do not answer phone calls. Terrible customer service! it's out right disrespectful! read more

I've seen many good shows at the Funky Biscuit. National Acts such as Dave Bromberg, The New Orleans Suspects, Chris Cain, etc. It is a great venue to see live music and I normally have no problem with their prices. The drinks are good and the food is decent. However, I feel that the show I saw Friday night was a bit of a rip-off. 2 Standing Room tickets cost $74.44 with fees. The "fees" amounted to $14.44, and were not disclosed at the door. The band was a mediocre Rolling Stones cover band, where the lead singer looked more like Ronnie James Dio. Could have seen a real concert at iThink for the same price, and been able to sit down. Tickets for a show like this should be $15 tops. At best. read more

This is an awesome place. We went there to see Eric Darius in concert and it was awesome. The venue is one of the best I have ever been to. The sound and atmosphere is perfect. We sat at the preferred bar and Taylor took very good care of us. He made great door recommendations and the drinks were great to. They are famous for their biscuits and they are worth the trip. They are so fluffy and moist. They serve them with a warm buttery glaze and is a perfect combination to the biscuit. When we come back, we will definitely come here again. read more

Packed house to see Samantha Fish at this fun bar. We've seen several bands in the past and enjoyed their food as well. On this night, we had standing room tickets. Opening act was catchy, but had to wait a couple of hrs for Samantha. While she was great, it was a work night, so we stayed until we couldn't stay up anymore. Will never get a standing room only ticket again. Few spots to stand without people constantly walking by. read more

We came up to Boca to hear a band playing here but on arrival (two hours before the show), it was standing room only. We decided to go next door for dinner and on our return the line was so long, we did have a chance to get in. This is not a large venue and does seem to attract a large crowd. I suppose we could have stayed outside to listen but would not have seen the band. Additionally, parking is very tight so all around... arrive early. Enjoy! read more

A great place for good live jazz and blues music... good food and friendly service!! The chicken and dumplings are fantastic!!! Some nights you definitely need reservations. read more

We've been to The Funky Biscuit twice. If we lived in the area we would go more. It's a great venue for live music. The food is fantastic. Our visit last night we had the soft pretzels, a wedge salad, and the chicken & biscuits. All the food was cooked perfectly and delicious, even with a packed venue for a concert. Food came out quickly too. read more

Amazing venue for music.The owner does an awesome job with bookings. The staff is very attentive here. I see the reviews about service but i guess its boca and people expect Chops lstyle service at a blues venue. I dont know... My drink is always full, so im a happy camper. Honestly the staff is pretty rocking, Especially alexa whom holds an unfathomable amount of drinks on a tray. Ill continue to return and love this place for exactly what it is. read more

So thrilled to have "discovered" the Funky Biscuit. We came to south Florida to escape Covid & NE winter weather for a few months. The Funky Biscuit is absolutely the Best part of Boca. We've been attending shows at least twice a week. The FB Allstars on Mondays have been excellent jams, covering everything from classic rock to blues to jazzy jammy stuff. We found their arrangements to often be better than the originals. We also caught Ana Popovic & Tab Benoit which were 5 star. The place was Covid Clean, the staff wore masks, the tables are distanced and we felt safe. The outdoor area has distanced tables, comfy sofas for watching monitors with decent sound streaming the live show inside. The Biscuit could make me move to Boca permanently. We love their choice of music. The food is very good, too! read more

Do not pay for tables on the main floor of this club. You'll pay more than the Standing Room Only (SRO) crowd, who will promptly stand in front of you on the "dance" floor where they do precious little dancing, and block your view. I could hear The New Orleans Suspects, but see them from my ringside table? Nah. That sucks, especially when I paid more to see the show than our friends with a beer and their rear ends in my face. Biscuit staff do nothing about this because its "a dance show." Didn't see that disclaimer on the floor seating when I bought my table or I would have bought SROs and saved the jack. There are tables in the back on a riser where you can see over the heads of the SROs... sort of, and they're in the bleachers for distance. No TV screens here either to compensate for the view being sucked up by taking in 120 extra paid drinks with feet. Also, DO NOT BELIEVE the 8pm start time. That's just to get you in to eat and drink before the madness starts. I've seen two shows there (probably my last two) and one got off at 9:30p and the other started at 8:30 BUT it had an opening act that wasn't good for more than 30 minutes that he let play on for almost 90 minutes. By the time the main act came on it was 10:30, and we had arrived at 7:30 to get seated and eat by the 8:00p show start. The "regulars" know this and didn't drift in until 9:00-9:30. Most clubs would have had two shows in the time that this owner took to do one badly. They have no security there either. Drunken soccer mamma Selfie Sally wants to take a snap with the saxophonist while he's on stage DURING THE SET! She walks right up, shoves herself next to him, and no one on staff at the Biscuit does squat. So people left because the seats that they paid more for were completely useless to see the act that they came to see. We left before the show ended, even though we were moved to some bar stools where I could at least glimpse the talent on stage for a bit. There are solutions to this: Do an 8 & 10 show. Make the early show a dinner show so they can sell food, which is really quite good for a limited menu, at TABLES and have no dance floor, or a floor in the back away from the stage (you can hear really well in there) and then for late show remove the tables and have an all-dance show where they clear the floor and let everyone stand or dance. Raise the stage or lower the "dance floor" to get the SRO rabble to clear the view for those who paid prime dollar for their tables. Put some TV screens up on the ceiling (and turn some of the monitors over the bars) on to a live feed cam so people can see the act being obliterated by the SRO cheapies who choke off the view. Parking is a disaster. No valet, and the only difference between HELL and this lot on a weekend is that in Hell there is always a spot waiting for you. We have so view good venues, and so few clubs willing to pay money for quality live music entertainment. This should not be a two star club, but it's run like the amateur hour. Not only that, but I would not want to be talent on the stage with the level of control that this club exercises. The only thing keeping it relatively less crazy is most of the people coming here are 50+ and just mildly obnoxious (e.g. Selfie Sally on stage) and move too slowly to be really a problem. To call this "The premiere music venue" is a joke. The owner treats his regulars well, true. Unfortunately anyone new to the club he's alienating which ultimately will be his downfall because you can't grow a business when the newbies have to learn by "hard knocks" that they are going to be there three hours before the show starts and that their table has NO VALUE at all. Sorry regulars. read more

A fun time with friends our second time going there great experience also very affordable

If you know me well you know what a big music fan I am. South Florida has many different music venues but not many in Boca, so it was nice to find a cool place close to home. I finally made it out to the Funky Biscuit to check out two local bands last night, Kill Mama and Rat's Mouth. It's a pretty big place and I love how open it is. Makes it easier to see the band. I arrived early and the bands were still setting up so I hung at the bar and waited for my friends to arrive. The bartender was super nice and chatted with me a bit since the place was pretty empty at the time. She was quick with the drinks too and didn't skimp on the pours so that's always much appreciated. They have a food menu but I didn't eat anything on this visit. My friends did get sliders and chicken tenders with fries and everything looked delicious. I heard no complaints. The place was super clean, including the bathrooms. The waitress that helped us at our table when we moved away from the bar was really nice and quick with the drinks/food. Overall it was a great experience. The music was awesome, sound and acoustics were perfect, FB was a comfortable place to hangout and the drinks were reasonably priced. I even scored some free music and stickers from Kill Mama! Happy Girl! =) read more

A great place to watch live music. My favorite venue in the area. They bring great artists in, good service and reasonable prices for food and drinks. I highly recommend this establishment! read more

This is a terrific spot to catch your favorite Jazz or Blues band. On any given night of the week, there are always some amazing talents filling the stage here. Located right off Federal Hwy and Mizner Blvd, this classy little Jazz club is always wowing the crowd. From the minute you walk through the doors you get that "cozy" nightclub feel. Check the calendar or get on their email list for their musician and concert line up and be prepared to either purchase tickets or pay a nominal cover charge. I don't think there's a bad seat in the house. Last night we were front row for Randi & the Wildfire band and the acoustics and lights were perfect. We've also gone for dinner and sat in the back and enjoyed ourselves just as much. Go early for happy hour and stay for dinner and enjoy some of the tasty menu items including soups, salads, wings, burgers, fish tacos or a down home Po Boy, straight out of N'Awlins. Bartenders and wait staff do an excellent job keeping your drinks filled while you enjoy the music and dance the night away! read more

Bartenders are terrible. Can't keep track of who needs drinks. Can't operate cash register in a timely fashion. Only had two bartenders for 300 people! Absolutely ridiculous. I paid 25 dollars to see a garage band and could not even get a beer. I went home after waiting at the bar for 20 min. Well you got my money and I hope you are happy. But never again!! Maybe the owner doesn't realize it buy bars make money off the drinks so you need to make sure you do everything possible to make that happen. I think the owner should go up north to Boston or NY and see how a music bar is supposed to be managed. Oh and one more thing. Reserved seats at the bar! Total BS!! I'm 57 and never in my life have I seen this practice anywhere. read more

OK...I'm checking in and I made a HUGE mistake in ordering their smoked wings...I only ordered 5 of them, just to try them out... BIG mistake!! They are so flippin' good that they should only be ordered by the dozen! The small order is an exercise in masochism... I got them "extra-crispy" and were they ever! For the love of Pete, PLEASE don't make the same mistake I made... read more

What a great venue for music. The happy hour band was fabulous and the HH specials were a steal. Had a great time.

So cool to find a venue for live jazz and blues music. It's easy to find and park and its small and intimate. We saw the great Victor Wainright and he killed it. Not really a late night person, but this was so much fun. Had a few drinks but didn't sample any eats. I would absolutely go back. read more

As I read some of the negative reviews I am left to wonder if these people have ever been to a music club before? Bands must be paid, tickets are sold and tables are at a premium,,, It has been this way at any true music club I have ever been to. So my review, My wife and I bought last minute tickets to see Tommy Castro and had to get SRO. No problem, we told the manager if a table or bar seats opened we would buy them. No problem. They let us sit at the bar until the person who purchased the tickets arrived. No problem. The man arrived and gave us his seats because he joined friends at a table. SCORE! The show was amazing, the sound system is awesome too. Bartenders were very friendly and the food wasn't bad for a club,,yes it's a club. We have gone back a few times since and had a great time. read more

Funky JAZZ and decent food menu. Everyone is friendly. I like it a lot.

I'm a New Yorker who comes south a few times a year and when I do this joint is my go to spot. Not only do they showcase some of the best music in town but the food is very good and not a rip off Fantastic meaty crunchy wings. Grilled cheese with tomato was perfection Crunchy delicious sweet potato fries. Hit the spot burgers. Where else can you see Gregg Allman make a surprise appearance at his son Devon's show? read more

Best kept secret in Palm Beach County. the staff are awesome as well as the venue.

AN OWNER'S RESPONSE BELOW!!! Hmmmm, Looks like my old review magically disappeared. (3 yrs ago the day after Thanksgiving) This club is NOT a safe space for women. I was groped by one of their local patrons. The staff did nothing. The owner basically called me a liar on the phone. I didn't think you could remove bad reviews. But not surprised. read more

Great music. Food is good. You go to this place for the great entertainment. Always enjoyed.

So I only go here when there is no cover for the house band and won't pay for a reserve seat at the bar, but for live music in Boca its pretty good and will pay for a band I want to see. They have been around along time and there are few places that offer this much live music and some pretty good bands. The crowd is strange, it seems everyone is character or dressed unlike one; definitely an older funky crowd. read more

I have 4 seats for tonights show ( Nov. 25th) at the Biscuit for Unlimited Devotion. $20 bucks a seat.

The best club in South FL. Anyone who says otherwise is an idiot and doesn't understand music and clubs. Great artists love to play here. The sound is amazing and the setup is perfect. They have a house Hammond B3 that great keyboardists drool over. If The Biscuit was a woman, I would marry her. It's that good. read more

What a great venue! We went to see All Heart and the sound system was great. A very intimate setting with great views from all seats. The service was great and they even serve food through out the show. That could have been a distraction but it wasn't thanks to the great staff. Looking forward to more shows read more

What a shit hole! It fancies it self as a supper club with entertainment. There's no way to walk there's nowhere to dance you can't clap your hands you can't walk around. The food is some of the shittiest food I've ever seen in my life cheap with no taste. Eight dollars for a basic drink. They charge you money to get in charge money for dinner and say that they have topline entertainment, I beg to differ. Will never go back never my advice is you stay away overpriced for nothing. read more

I bought tickets for a show here and have tried to call to get some basic information for 2 weeks. The phone goes to voice mail and the mail box is full. I've decided not to drive from West Palm to the venue tonight because if they can't clean up their messages they certainly can't clean up their kitchen. read more
