Zagat rated, this charming, warm and romantic restaurant features a full bar, wines and beers from around the world. The inside is very quant and elegant. Each dish is prepared to order and to perfection with a nice presentation. My husband and I were there on a Saturday night around 7pm. It was busy, but not crowded.  We were seated right away with our reservation and had excellent service. The owner of the restaurant also introduced himself and made sure we were being taken care of to our satisfaction.  Everything is a la carte. We both ordered martinis and the onion soup to start. Both were delicious. I had the trout for my entree and my husband had the snapper dish. Both were very tasty and fresh. We ended with sharing a cheese cake dessert with fruit topping.

We enjoyed our dinner and the atmosphere and look forward to coming back to try their other dinner dishes. It is a great place for a special occasion or a holiday gathering with family.

5 -Spice has a nice casual atmosphere and is a great place for a moderate lunch or dinner.  It is a convenient place for business professionals working in the area to have a healthy meal.  5 Spice also has catering, delivery, and takeout services available. They are located in a outside shopping mall off of Yamato Road just west of I-95.

5-Spice Asian Street Market wants to  bring to America hidden culinary treasures from different regions of Asia with uncompromising authenticity and quality, in a warm and inviting atmosphere capturing the essence of the street markets of the Far East.  It is important to 5-Spice to serve well-balanced foods, healthy enough to leave you full of energy, spicy enough to harmonize with your body, and tasty enough to keep you returning time and time again.

My husband and I went to 5-Spice for lunch during the week and it was busy. The menu is varied and the portions are large. The food is fresh and tasty. I ordered the half-pound chicken flame-roasted meal and my husband ordered the half-pound duck flame-roasted meal.  Both meals come with two sides and a spice roll. We also ordered their specialty bubble green tea. It was nice and smooth. I had never had it before.

Next time I will want to try the noodle soup bowls and the rice bowls. 5-Spice is great for ordering larger family meals as well. There is also a separate kids menu. I would recommend trying this restaurant for a different experience. Looking forward to returning again soon for lunch or for dinner.

At Six Tables restaurant, dinner guests are served a memorable and delicious five course, prix fix meal in their comfortable quant dining room with only six tables! Each table can be arranged to accommodate a party of two, four, six or up to 10 people for your dining comfort. Six Tables is open for dinner only, by reservation only with two seating times, most Tuesday through Saturday nights.

The Boca Raton location is near Mizner Park and has been there for over seven years. We had the 7:00pm seating on a Saturday night. There were two other couples there at that time. You are encouraged to be there on time to benefit  most from the experience. It is a great place for a romantic quiet dinner for two or a larger party for a family celebration or company event.   All locations are independently owned and operated. The other Florida locations are in Tampa, Gulfport, and Dunedin.

At Six Tables, your table setting is very special along with the atmosphere and music. Real crystal, crisp linens, and unique china is set at each table along with soft jazz melodies and candles. Once everyone is seated, the owner and chef, Jon, welcomes you to the dining experience and explains the menu and the dining technique. CiCi helps pour the welcome blanc de blanc champagne that everyone rescieves upon arrival. There are other wines that can be ordered from their selected wine menu as well for dinner.

I ate at Six Tables with my husband to celebrate our third wedding anniversary this past weekend. It was so nice and really made our weekend celebration special.  We were treated very special. The welcome champagne is served with gourgeres. The signature lobster bisque was full of lobster pieces. The homemade lavender herb bread was warm and delicious. For our main dish, I had the braised lamb legs and my husband had the chateaubriand. The presentations were unlike any that we have had recently. The poached pear and sample cheeses went well after the main dish. We had a blueberry custard dessert that was very sweet and soothing with coffee. The whole meal left a good taste in our mouths.

I highly recommend trying Six Tables for a different and special dining experience. Looking forward to returning to Six Tables for many more occasions to come. Check out their website for more information on their history, the wine list, and sample menu.  Major credit cards are accepted.  Reservations are suggested.  Any reservation cancellations or rescheduling should be made at least 24 hours in advance.

Outback Steakhouse is best known for their grilled steaks, chicken, and seafood dishes. They also offer salads, soups, and appetizers.  New creations and grilled dishes are served fresh daily. There are many locations all over South Florida. It is a great place for families and parties.  Online ordering and crubside take-away ordering is available. There are two separate locations in Boca Raton alone. I was with a friend at the West Boca Raton location recently during the week on a Wednesday night around 8:00pm. It was not packed, but there were many tables filled. There is a bar on the right side. It has a casual atmosphere.

The menu is varied. There are now gluten-free dishes and Spanish dishes available as well. We ordered two appetizers to share and had one of their peach flavored specialty drinks called Wallaby Darned. The Gold Coast Coconut Shrimp was good and so was the Alice Springs Chicken Quesadillas. Many of their portions are large enough for two people to share. We also had their signature dark bread. Our server was very accommodating and also helped us in our appetizer decision.

Because there are always new and exciting additions to their menu, I look forward to coming back again soon and trying them.

We dined at the Boca Raton location twice during the last two months. Food is ordered at the counter as in fast food restaurants, but brought to your table when ready.

The smothered pork sandwich was servered on a roll and consisted of tasty tender pork and coleslaw.  It was excellent as was the side of baked beans.  The chicken BBQ chicken sandwich was also very good, but the first time we ordered it on a roll. The second time we substituted Texas Toast. Also the second time we order the the brisket sandwich on Texas toast and a side of coleslaw.

Service is fast and prices are reasonable. The chicken sandwich was $5.99. The pork and brisket sandwiches were $6.99.  For the menu please visit shanesribshack.com.

Reservations gladly taken for parties of five or more

When you come to Renzo’s, you are treated like family. Originally from Sicily, Renzo started out in Long Island, NY. They have been in this location for over eighteen years. Renzo’s of Boca is not to be confused with the Renzo’s Cafe and Pizzeria also on Federal Highway or the Renzo’s Pizzeria on West Yamato Road and 441. These were opened in 2004.

At Renzo’s of Boca everything is made to order so you need to pack your patience for a delicious meal.  The parking lot is full, especially during season.  Valet parking is encouraged and is complimentary.  Once seated, the strong aroma of real Italian food is hard to ignore.  We started out with a nice bottle of Pino Grigio wine.  Plenty of warm garlic bread  was available for the table. That night we were there for a family celebration and everyone was pleased with their meal selections.  A few of us ordered the eggplant rollatini stuffed with ricotta cheese.  It came with a green salad and a side dish. My husband ordered the veal marsala and loved it.  Their homemade sauce is special in that it is not real spicy and has a true tomato taste.

Renzo’s of Boca is also a great venue for large gatherings or parties. There are two separate rooms. One has the bar in front and a piano for relaxing entertainment during your meal.  They are open seven days a week for lunch and dinner.

I look forward to coming back soon and would recommend to others.

For lunch we had the Homewrecker Burrito with steak, pinto beans, rice, cheese, pico de gallo, lettuce, cilantro, sour cream and guacamole; and the John Coctostan quesadilla with chicken, pinto beans and cheese.  Chips and salsa were given free of charge. Both dishes were excellent and not too spicy. At the condiment bar, you have a choice of various types of salsa from mild to hot.
