This isn't cheap, but for true Californian cuisine from good quality ingredients Boa is a good choice. During American Film Market in Nov, it's stuffed full of producers entertaining on the hustle -- a good sign. Service was ultra professional. Restaurant best for business not romance. more

I gave it a four... But I want to say that Boa is over-rated. more

Although we could have chosen other places, we just had to go back to the BOA for the incredible steak & lobster. As always, the service was attentive but not too much so.

Had one of the best steaks ever at BOA Steakhouse. Both meat and sides were perfectly cooked. Service was very attentive and skillful. Decoration is modern and gives you that special "chique" vibe. more

This place is more like a 4 1/2. I really like this place. The steaks are great, and last time I was there I had cotton candy for dessert. more

Great steak more

Wow.... best steakhouse I've been to. I had the New York Strip with the blue cheese crust and it melted in my mouth. The side dishes were just ok, served familly style (two people can share one dish). Sevice was good, a bit noisy but it add's to the atmosphere. We sat on the patio and enjoyed the view. more

Good, interesting dishes; love the mini tacos. more

love the chop chop salad! more
