Located in the Boca Raton Town Center Mall, this high end restaurant offers a sophisticated ambience, attentive service and delicious food. When we walked into the restaurant, we were greeted by several employees. My wife was riding a scooter and they immediately helped her find a location to park it.

 

We waited a moment until our table was ready, and then we were escorted over to a booth. The dining rooms are elegant with dark walls, dark furnishings, stained glass chandeliers, paintings, wine racks, a few stuffed and mounted animal heads (maybe a bit creepy to us but some people will love it), and world clocks. Frank Sinatra style music plays quietly in the background. Since it was my birthday, they had sprinkled the table with confetti and birthday card signed by the staff.

 

The restaurant has regular tables and wood chairs as well as padded booth seating. Most if not all tables are accessible and there's plenty of room for a wheelchair to navigate. The bathrooms are accessible.

 

This restaurant has a gluten free menu, however when we asked the server for it, she said "You can eat anything on the menu except for the blue cheese". Realizing she didn't have any idea what we were talking about, my wife informed her that it's more complex than that. She let her know that she'd been told that this restaurant offers a special menu. She did come back with it a couple minutes later.

 

First we were served a basket of various styles of bread with butter. My wife had noticed home made potato chips by the bar, and requested this in place of the bread. I ordered a chopped salad with bacon vinaigrette dressing, which was flavorful, delicious and actually fantastic. My wife had the gluten free French onion soup (minus the bread), which was rich and wonderfully full of cheese and onions.

 

For the main course, I had a sirloin with mashed potatoes, and my wife had the filet minion with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Each food was delivered on its own plate. When they delivered the food, my wife noted that the two plates of mashed potatoes were really large portions. The waitress offered to take back one of the two plates, which we were grateful for (considering it was about $8 or $9 per side dish plate).  The simply cooked asparagus portion was enough to share as well. The mashed potatoes tasted strongly of butter, and the dish needed a lot of salt. with

 

Both beef dishes were flame grilled, very tender and perfectly prepared. My wife's filet was, according to her, the best or among the best few filet mignon's she's ever had. My filet was also delicious. Since it was my birthday, they served a rich, flourless chocolate mocha cake with cream. The chocolate was very dark and intense, and I really enjoyed it. My wife found the chocolate to dark for her tastes. We topped off the meal with flavorful cappuccinos which were topped with cinnamon and served with rock candy stir sticks.  

 

I should mention that though my wife stuck to the foods that were supposed to be gluten free, that evening she had symptoms associated with having had gluten. 

 

We enjoyed this restaurant and would come back for special occasions, though I think we'd request to speak with a chef next time about my wife's gluten free diet needs. The bill including the tip was about $156 for the two of us.
