    Entraña
    Donna K.

    Great spot for a solid steak dinner. We went with the tasting menu and it was a great price for how much food you get. The appetizers, salad, and noqui were very good. Everything tasted really good overall. We had the vacio and entraña, both cooked perfectly, super flavorful and juicy with big portions. The fries were good, the green beans were very flavorful. The chocolate cake was rich, decadent, and moist, I really liked it. Service was attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. Would definitely come back for great steak.

    It's been 8 years since we've been here and the food still taste GOOD ! Love the ambiance and the service it's always on point. This is a truly hidden Gem I'm willing to share. I didn't take a photo of the Crape it's to die for trust me. We promise to return sooner.

    My first time at La Boca and certainly not the last. This is the start of a beautiful relationship with one of the finest steakhouses I've ever been. Service is impeccable and so warm and friendly. The food can speak for itself. I could live on the Provoletta and Noqui with pancetta, peas and cream sauce alone.

    Filet - Medium, cut and tasted great.

    Great experience for a casual friday with the fellas! Great food, Quality Service and Tasty Drinks..

    Service was friendly and the food was amazing. We did the Chef's Tasting menu and every item was delicious. I got to try things I wouldn't have ordered normally, and the price is a great deal too! And getting to pick my steak knife was a perfect touch!

    The food, service, ambience, and time with family and friends were great! We ordered the cheese for starters and each had a different steak with a different side that we all shared. We had the mashed potatoes, French fries, green beans and Brussel sprouts. I had an Old Fashioned and two of our guests enjoyed margaritas. Our waitress was pleasant, knowledgeable, and informative. There were many great steak options which were nice and the sides were a nice size to share and very tasty. Tinned the night, we shared a complimentary flourless chocolate cake in celebration of a loved one's birthday.

    Heart of Palm Salad- this was refreshing as a starter!

    Throughly enjoyed my dinner there! Ordered the four-course tasting menu that came with empanadas, bruschetta, chorizo and noqui, your choice of steak with frites, heart of palm salad, seasonal veggie and flourless chocolate cake. The three sauces elevated the meal: herb based sauce, pepper sauce and a mustard sauce. My favorites were the herb and pepper sauce. Our first course was the appetizer sampler! This came with the empanadas, bruschetta and chorizo. My favorite was the chorizo! It was spicy and savory! You can taste the spices and smokiness of it. Loved the casing, too! It gave a satisfying crunchy bite. Bruschetta was sweet and the mushroom gave it character. Empanadas were my least favorite. It didn't have the amount of seasoning that stunned my taste buds like the chorizo did. The shell was tough to bite into. The noqui was next and it served. The texture of the noqui was light and fluffy. It wasn't tough and the cream sauce was thick and rich!! Pancetta salted the dish for you. I wanted MORE. The peas were a nice break from the heaviness. Next, steaks! We ordered the special that night that I forgot the name since. It started with an S. (Somebody help lol) Anywaaays, this was an extremely tender piece. It was perfectly cooked to medium rare and when I say it was seasoned, IT WAS SEASONED! Whoever did the marination, KUDOS. The frites were thinly sliced and overly crispy upon arrival. It smelled great but tasted burnt. Some of the green beans were on the firmer side. Last course was our flourless chocolate cake. It was thick and decadent. Personally, I didn't like it because of the aftertaste the topping left but don't let me stop you from trying it though. Enjoy

    The steaks here were cooked perfectly ! Medium rare! Sausage was ok, we had the salad which was great addition . They had martinis as well. High recommend for a good steak night !

    Good cuts of meat. Great flavor. No unnecessary "frills". Simply delicious. Came in on a Tuesday night after a work conference. Called and made a reservation but it probably wasn't needed. At 7:15 the place was pretty open and no line for a table. The food was remarkable. Very well seasoned, cooked to order, and it does a lot with simplicity. The Entraña Fina was delicious and so tender. They offered sauces for the steak but it was so unnecessary, the flavor of the steak was more than enough! Don't skip the Provoleta if you love some fried cheese! There's no chicken, no fish, just beef. It's a steakhouse and they own it! The waitstaff was good, offered specials, made recommendations and was attentive to our table. I definitely recommend this place and am looking for an excuse to eat here one more time before I leave!

Rich, layered, and well-balanced with fresh elements that worked together on the plate. For entrées, we had a variety of cuts, including the Australian Wagyu, ribeye, butcher's cut, and lamb chops. The Wagyu stood out immediately. High quality, great sear, and finished tableside, which added to the overall experience without taking away from the food itself. Each steak was cooked precisely to temperature and full of flavor. The lamb chops paired with carrots and brussels were well executed and balanced. The sides complemented the meal well and did not feel like afterthoughts. You can also see their in-house dry aging setup, which speaks to the level of detail they put into their steak program. It shows in the final product. The drinks were solid across the board. The Old Fashioned and bourbon selections paired well with the meal and matched the food's quality. Service by Noelle was attentive and responsive throughout the night. Everything flowed well, and we were taken care of without feeling rushed or hovered over. This is not a casual dinner spot, but for a celebration or a night where you want a full experience, Doris Metropolitan absolutely delivers.

    Not actually sure about the food or ambiance about this place because in retrospect, the attitude…read moreof the bartender who "served" us is all we can remember. It started the moment we walked in. Glancing at the hostess, asking "OK to sit at the bar?", getting a nod, sitting down. An experience we've done in hundreds of restaurants. (We had reservations for a table but often prefer the bar.) The bartender -- whom we believe was named Mike -- started off his interaction with new customers as follows. "Did you check with the hostess?" I nodded in the affirmative, apparently that wasn't enough. "Check with the hostess", he ordered. I got up, went over the hostess stand, and confirmed, this time so "Mike" could see, that it was OK for us to sit at a half-empty bar. (In retrospect, we should have gotten up and walked out immediately, but it was late and even in the Quarter most places were closing for dinner.) You see, Mike clearly didn't want to be working that night. He was rude, inattentive, and condescending. And not just to us, to everyone seated at the bar. Slow making drinks, slow asking for orders, seething contempt for his customers. One time we asked to see a drink menu to decide on a new drink, he said, and this is a direct quote, "Do you want to see it or do you want to review it?" Mike's behavior was clearly well-known to the staff, because another staff member, who was off-shift and next to us at the bar, witnessed this behavior and arranged for a free dessert on the house (classy move on her part). She confided in us that Mike's pretty much always like that, but that he's a buddy of the general manager so seemingly un-fireable. Well, here's hoping someone reads this and thinks the better of Doris Metropolitan, or at least sitting at the bar. Unless you think service you'd get in a Paris tourist trap cafe is appropriate for a high-end steakhouse, you're better off spending your hard-earned money elsewhere.

Now I'm sure the hostess is accustom to people bringing in their pets and lying that they're service dogs, so she told me that we had to sit outside. That's obviously illegal, we got the manager involved, the manager quickly understood that we weren't bringing a pet and got us sat inside. We ordered drinks, they took a long time to come out. I asked the grade of the Wagyu on the Manhattan steak, and the server told me it was "6 or 12 or something" Wagyu obviously comes A1-A5, so I asked him to go check. He came back and said it was A5. Not knowing Wagyu grades, and the drinks taking a while was the only place the service was lacking, he was otherwise delightful. $70 bucks seemed kind inexpensive for an A5, but I had never actually had one before so I ordered it medium rare. We ordered the seafood platter, that was fine, the breading on the shrimp was kinda soggy. Main courses comes out, and my medium rare steak was literally back black and blue. It was still cold in the center. I'm not one to send food back, but I couldn't eat it. Sent it back. It comes back quickly... too quickly, still way under cooked. Sent it back a 3rd time. At that point the rest of my family was done eating and I asked for it to just be removed instead. Which they did, and they boxed it up for me anyway in addition to comping all of our drinks, which was of course very nice. I ended up eating that steak for lunch the next day, and IF it was Wagyu, it was A1, there is a 0% chance that had the marbling to be an A5, I've had prime New York's from CostCo that had better marbling. So I give them 2 stars, the server had some learning to do, been there, but was very nice. They made up for their errors on the bill, I appreciate that, but we still went there with higher expectations. 2 stars is kind.

From the moment we sat down, the staff set the tone--professional, genuinely friendly, and impressively efficient. We began with a trio of starters that showcased both richness and restraint. The foie gras torchon was silky and indulgent, perfectly complemented by fruit confiture and warm, toasted Bellegarde Bakery bread--a classic pairing done right. Marinated crab claws, dressed in a lively chili vinaigrette, delivered a bright, briny punch, while the pickled pineapple and jalapeño chips added just the right balance of sweetness and heat. A cucumber salad rounded out the starters, crisp and refreshing, acting as a welcome palate reset before the mains. For entrées, comfort and finesse shared the plate. The confit chicken thighs were meltingly tender, paired with ham-braised greens swimming in a tangy apple cider vinegar broth. A lovely Dijon cream tied everything together, adding richness without overwhelming the dish. Equally memorable was the half smoked duck, beautifully executed and deeply flavorful, served over a smooth pumpkin-sweet potato purée. The cherry bourbon glaze brought a subtle sweetness, while the pepitas added texture and a nutty finish. Dessert was the perfect exclamation point on an already wonderful meal: a slice of hot chocolate cheesecake, decadent and deeply chocolaty, crowned with toasted marshmallow fluff that leaned just enough into nostalgia without crossing into excess. Toups Meatery continues to deliver thoughtful, soulful cooking with polish and heart--comfort food elevated, served by a team that clearly knows what they're doing.

That's clearly communicated when you're greeted, so naturally it sets the expectation for shareable portions. We started with the ricotta and meatballs. Overall, portions felt on the smaller side, but the ricotta, especially at $18, was honestly a bit shocking in size. When we asked about it, a server jokingly said "inflation." I get it, but still. The two guys I dined with come here often and were actually the ones pointing out that portions have seemed to shrink. For mains, we each ordered a pasta. One was a server recommended agnolotti with crab, corn, and roe. It was decent, but the broth felt a bit too loose and could've used more depth and richness. That said, the crab portion was generous, the pesto was great, and the red sauce pasta was solid. We also ordered two pizzas, hands down the highlight of the meal. Easily the best thing we had. One small but off putting detail, the red pepper flakes were served in an open jar rather than a shaker. It made me question how many hands had been in it, especially since it appeared to have been reused from another table. Not the most sanitary presentation. Dessert was a strong finish. Panna cotta, tiramisu, and olive oil cake were all fresh and delicious. Drinks included a cocktail for me and beers plus an espresso martini for the table, all fine. Service wise, things started okay but felt rushed toward the end. We even mentioned we were still picking at food and what seemed to be a manager still cleared plates from the table. The tables themselves are also very small, which doesn't help when you're doing family style dining. Our server appeared to be training someone but never introduced them, which made things feel a bit awkward. Also, when resetting silverware, it felt rushed and a little careless, almost tossed onto the table rather than placed. Overall, the experience was good but not great. The food had its highlights, but portion sizes versus price and some service missteps held it back. 6/10, and honestly it reminded me why I hadn't felt the urge to come back before.

Potato soufflé app was a hit! Perfect appetizer in my opinion and would definitely recommend you try it when you go. As for recommendations that you must try when you go, the crab au gratin was one of the best dishes I've ever had!!! I shared a bite with those at my table and every person just had that look of pure bliss on their face (like the food critic in Ratatouille after he took the first bite). It was absolutely phenomenal and you must try it, though I'd recommend you share as it might induce a stage 5 food coma if you put that bad boy down yourself.
