    Love Boka for a few reasons Food: the best duck in the city and no matter how often we get the duck it feels new and different. Excellent starters and small plates Wine and liquor: a great wine list that has some seriously great finds served with care and a great cocktail list to start or finish your night. Service: consistency is key, we enjoy coming back because there are so many familiar faces which really helps put you at ease with your dinner. The meal is timely and well attended. With a great support staff making sure no need is missed. I don't recall how many times we've been over the years but it always feels special and fresh and fun.

    Had an excellent experience at Andy’s. The food was amazing; we ordered the Cajun shrimp risotto and the Caribbean grilled salmon. The salmon was juicy and delightful. The shrimp risotto was phenomenal as well. Loved the espresso martini! The music was great too and the entire vibe / experience.

    It was very pleasant New Year Day Brunch. We had an excellent experience. The only one thing I would like to comment on is that even though the 20% tip was already added to the bill , on the credit card receipt, it was asking again for a tip ! We thought it was kinda tacky....
