For main dishes, the Veal San Remo was a pleasant change from the usual veal dishes. The veal scaloppini was topped with fresh roasted pepper and mozzarella cheese finished with a white wine, lemon and butter sauce. The lemon flavor gave the dish a delightful taste. The entree included a vegetable and potato.

The other entree we enjoyed was the Penne Broccoli Rabe and chicken.  The fresh rabe broccoli and chicken was sauteed with garlic and extra virgin olive oil and tossed with penne pasta. The dish was tasty.

For desert we had tiramisu and a cannoli. The tiramisu had a perfect consistency and a wonderful flavor.  The cannoli was smooth and tasted very fresh.  Excellent coffee was included with the dessert.

The service was very attentive and the setting was an excellent place to dine slowly enjoying the surroundings.

The complete dinner menu is an excellent value for $25 per person. The wines- by-the- glass we selected were $9 each. An a la carte menu is also available.

On July3, 2010, we enjoyed the thin crust pizza with arugula. Although there was less cheese on the pizza than in many other establishments, the sauce was very tasty. The arugula was good, but it is better eaten in a salad as the tomato sauce hides the unique flavor of arugula.

We started with a Caesar salad and garlic bread. One salad is more than enough for two people. The garlic bread is different, three pieces of flat bread (pizza without the sauce and cheese)  with garlic and oil.

This is a small restaurant where all ages dine.  There were TV’s with a baseball game. The volume was turned off.

The atmosphere at the Ke’e Grill is very relaxed and comfortable.  The tropical and exotic motif of Hawaii surrounds you.  The lighting, bamboo walls, and tables with the large umbrellas gives you the feeling of being at a resort in the tropics.  The Boca Raton location is one of four in Florida and is in a prime area for steady business.  Reservations are strongly suggested and the tables fill up fast.  When we dined there this past weekend, we were lucky to get in on such short notice. 

The staff seemed to be very friendly and accommodating from the moment we walked in.  Our waitress, Linda, was very helpful in ordering and service was prompt and efficient.  The menu at Ke’e Grill is primarily made up of Pacific, Asian, Polynesian and American Northwest dishes.  The food is of the highest quality and only the best cuts of meat are served.  The portions are very generous and the wide variety makes it hard to choose the one best dish to order. Their prices are reasonable for the amount of food that you receive and they do offer an Early Bird menu.  The wine list is extensive and their expresso martinis are the best!  I ordered the crab and yellowtail  combination which was very enjoyable.  Their fish tastes fresh and tender.  All of us had left-over food for the next day.  I look forward to going back to the Ke’e Grill again soon and recommending it to my family and friends.  If you haven’t tried the Ke’e Grill yet, do so and you won’t be disappointed.
