   This was our first time at BOA.  For our group, it was a miss. The service was subpar, the lighting is terrible - the lights over the tables make you feel like you’re under a heat lamp and the food was a solid B at best.  The espresso martini was great with the chocolate straw. Overall, there are a lot better places in Austin.

   It was really good. I did feel like we were put in the children’s room. Very noisy with the wine wall surrounding us.

   Could have not asked for a better dining experience on our night out. Kelly was the star of the show making our favorite Caesar salad.

   Service was unbelievably poor for that price point and compared to its sister restaurants in California. 1. We couldn’t get seated bc no menus. And they told us that. What should have happened: take us to the bar, set us up with a drink and don’t even mention the menu issue. That’s just odd. 2. Sommelier was non existent despite several tried by our waitress to get him over. Thanks to the manager for fixing that bc we were eating apps by the time he came to take our order. 3. Didn’t get our order right. Brought us the wrong side. Server should have checked the wellness is the meat before bringing it over. It was sliced so we could share and we literally had a long conversation on what we wanted. 4. The server picked up our app plates and my husband was gone and then they brought over the entrees immediately and of course he wasn’t there so then I called them over to put it back in the kitchen. Again, come on. Poor experience and while they tried to rectify it, it didn’t happen and for this price point and reputation, it didn’t live up.

    Very pleasant experience. While the food was great, the service and staff were incredible.
