Mushroom and cheese omelet w grits
Lisa H.

We have been searching our local restaurants and diners for the best pancakes and we saw some great pancake reviews at this location. It has been here for decades, yet we only found it now after living in the area forever. The restaurant is located in a strip center under construction. There was plenty of parking. We were told to sit anywhere and coffee arrived quickly. It was good coffee. The interior is homey and very patriotic. The restaurant was quite busy with what appeared to be a lot of locals. The prices seemed a bit high but in line for the Boca area. We ordered the pancake breakfast along with a mushroom Swiss omelette and grits. I thought the meal was done right...omelet was cooked as I asked and the grits were tasty. As far as the pancakes, they were ok but we are still in search for the best ones. I'm glad we found this new breakfast place. We will be back.

What a discovery! It's all about the service! This place is exactly what a traditional American diner is supposed to be. John Dutton could walk in at any minute! Sit at the bar and drink a strong cup of coffee! The menu is a normal length, with everything you want to see on it. And the food is exactly how diner food should be! Last of a breed in the area!

Although it has a beautiful menu of wines and spirits, we stuck to their filtered water, and asked KC for any recommendations for lunch. He was very engaging, a wonderful communicator, and we made our selections which started with the bacon wrapped dates (YUM). Prior to my order, I mentioned a dietary restriction and KC promptly went to the kitchen to make an inquiry. I ordered the trout with lentil ragout, and my husband ordered a margarita pizza. The atmosphere was very peaceful, with unintrusive music, and we really did enjoy getting to know KC as he made sure that we were satisfied with every plate. This restaurant is upscale, yet with value pricing. Altogether, my husband and I encourage you to enjoy a lovely meal, and make sure to ask for KC! You won't be disappointed!

We stopped in a few days ago for dinner. Our expectations were pretty high considering how great…read moreour last meal was. We were seated promptly and the staff was very friendly. Also loved the atmosphere once again, it's just a very nice, open place to enjoy a meal and have a drink. We got a bunch of appetizers to start. The house made Ricotta with cracked pepper and olive oil was very delicious. I also loved the crispy zucchini slices, which were topped with peppadew peppers and a chili vinaigrette. Outstanding stuff. The seared ahi tuna was next level. The fish was fresh and beautifully seated and the mix of cucumber, aji amarillo, pineapple, cilantro and wasabi cream was sensational. One of the best dishes they make at Sixty Vines. The absolute best of the bunch was the truffle fries! They were amazing. They are basically crispy layered potatoes, almost like stacks of filo dough, fried and topped with pecorino, chives and lemon truffle cream. They were so good we ordered a second one! Considering how wonderful everything was to this point, we were expecting nothing but great things for the next course. However they completely dropped the ball and basically ruined our meal with lackluster entrees. Our party ordered the steak fries with chimichurri sauce, the double cabrenet burger, and several filet mignons. The amount of time it took to get the food was unreasonable. Once the appetizers were finished we had to wait somewhere around 20 to 25 minutes to get our mains, and the place was not that busy. I assume that the waitress just forgot or was busy with something else. As for the food, the quality of the steaks was not good all around. Everybody who got the filet mignon commented that the texture was chalky and weird. They were also all overcooked. And oddly, they decided to slice the steak before serving it, so it was very dry. Why would you pre slice a steak, all that's going to do is let the juices seep out and make the temperature drop. I honestly don't get it. The steak that came with the steak fries, I think it was a skirt steak, was also not the best cut. It was super fatty and a little chewy. The fries were good though but the meat was terrible. Finally the burger was completely overdone despite the person ordering it medium rare. Overall, not the best ending to a meal that started with such amazing dishes. Really striking contrast. And actually it made me think that I probably will not go back to Sixty Vines anytime soon. For a $350 meal they have to be doing a lot better. Dried out, overcooked steaks and burgers isn't going to cut it.

I got the drunken goat burger that has red onions, goat cheese, and a delicious Abita raspberry jam on it. The burger was large and more than I could eat and came with fries. The place is fairly casual, but everyone was still dressed nicely, and there's a bunch of TVs throughout playing sports. The service was great. Our waitress constantly checked on us and refilled our waters throughout. Parking was a bit difficult. I came in the middle of the day during the week and the entirely parking lot was full. Make sure to give yourself some time to find parking, especially during lunch and dinner hours.

First time here…read more Ambiance was great especially since it was cold outside. We sat at the bar and service was great ! We started with the chicken lettuce wraps, which we loved. I got the Wagyu beef noodle bowl . It was delicious, but I had no idea it was gonna be spicy and I'm super sensitive to spice. Couldn't eat it all because my mouth was burning. But I'm weak when it comes to spicy food so don't base the spice level off me. On Mondays, they do five dollars off burgers, so the Boyfriend got the big smash and loved it. I stole a bite, it was good! Always really liked the fries. Altogether, we are definitely coming back to try other things!

The espresso martini was good as was the Point Break, with tequila and guava juice, very nice, very tropical. Avalon Beach House used to be Avalon Steak & Seafood House. The first time I went in 2022, I remember it being more of a traditional steakhouse. The Ave has grown significantly around it over the years, but it's still one of the staple restaurants in a central location. Overall, it was great meal with good service and nice atmosphere. It's sill one of the gems. We started with the wedge salad and cheesy bread. We wanted to get the Filet Mignon and the Prime Cut Ribeye to share them, but they were out of the Filet which was a bit surprising. Instead, we got the Crispy Chicken Piccata. They were both excellent. The fingerlings and asparagus were good and loved the red wine sauce. The crispy chicken was not too heavy, with lemon and an ample arugula salad. I don't remember the name of desert, but it was a combo of a browny with an Oreo cookie layer (which the kid in me couldn't refuse) with a scoop vanilla ice cream. It was great.

The service was great they waited until I got there for my pickup to cut my pizza because they didn't want it just sitting in a box.. now that's service! Also I was super surprised about the homemade croutons!! One of my pet peeves from restaurants is the croutons from a bag I can definitely tell the difference. I could eat just a bag of their croutons. My kids loved the pizza. This is my favorite pizza place so far! I will be going here for my pizza from now on! I didn't dine inside but they seem to have lots of space and some cool Entertainment. Lots to drink and great vibes

There was valet a lot of free parking in front of the restaurant. This was a real happening, the restaurant was packed on a Saturday night. I'm glad our reservation was honored and we only waited for about five minutes. The restaurant was noisy, but fortunately the tables were spaced so we were not on top of each other. In 1971 J. Alexander opened in Nashville, Tennessee. There are 44 restaurants, mostly in the south, with 2,700 employees. They are considered a casual American food chain offering gift cards & VIP membership. Friends love their salads and with seven choices some with shrimp Louie or Asian tuna, what could be bad? The sandwiches, soups, burgers, sandwiches, steaks & house specialties look appealing. There is an extensive wine list, with many by the glass along with crafted martinis & cocktails. Joshua waited on us, he was on point. We started by sharing a delicious calamari appetizer that was enough for four of us. The calamari was fresh crispy and tasty. I shared baby back ribs with a huge baked potato and delicious coleslaw with my husband, it was more than enough for the two of us. Friends enjoyed their huge salads, they looked very good and they raved about them. The portions were very generous and prices were reasonable for the quality of our meal. I can't wait to go back again. We've got a new favorite local restaurant!

I ordered a Caesar salad with chicken ($9.99 additional) and it arrived with no chicken! Last night I ordered a French Dip sandwich with horseradish and a dip and a loaded potato. The Sandwich arrived with no dip and no horseradish. The potato came with no toppings. Very disappointing especially because what I love about this restaurant is its consistency. I spoke with a manager after the first delivery and she was very understanding. She told me that I would receive something in the mail to make up for the missing chicken. Nothing ever came. I will still go back to the restaurant because I love it, but this will make me hesitate before ordering with Door Dash again. Whoever takes care of the delivery meals has to get his/her act together.
