Reviews For The Grille on Congress

It was a pleasure meeting the owner. The food is excellent. Service was very good despite them being extremely busy. My wife highly recommends the snapper. The shrimp scampi was excellent too. Sorry I did not take pictures of the food. I ate it before I thought about it. This restaurant is well run & very efficient. I was sitting by the door and found that there were a lot of regular diners who personally knew the owner. I highly recommend.

Portions match price but taste and quaint ambience incent your return. Ideal location and ample parking. Great Boca staple for locals and travelers. My "go to" during my business trips, especially with clients. Update - Thanks to Susie and her staff for allowing me and several Gift of Life lab staff to enjoy desserts and drinks after posted hours. Happy Holidays!

Tried this restaurant for the first time yesterday.Lived here 40 years and never knew about it till a friend mentioned they had the best duck in town. He was right. Tween the warm biscuit and the crispy duck with orange sauce it was just incredible. Ill be back...Ill probably be a regular much to my poor wallets chagrin. its right up there with the best duck Ive ever had.

Talked away in a quiet little mall, the grill was a wonderful find. Coming upon Christmas, the decorations really struck me before we even walked inside. A gorgeous wreath and ornaments adorn the entrance. Then as you step inside you can see that they really took the extra step to make their space beautiful and festive. Terrific service, we were greeted immediately and sat, as it was lunch after lunch hour it was not busy, about 2 o’clock. I ordered a turkey club and hubby had the crabcake sandwich, extremely generous portions and delicious! We were hungry and we gobbled our food before I could take any snaps! Will be back for dinner for sure and I’ll update you.

We wound up here on New Years Eve because our other reservation got canceled unbeknownst to us. We'll let me tell you this restaurant was absolutely amazing, service impeccable food to die for. Hostesses who actually enjoyed their jobs smiled polite came to our table to check on us. I can not say enough about them. The food let's just say omg and those biscuits served right out the oven were unreal. Had no idea this restaurant even existed and it's been there for 25 years. Please go you will not be disappointed
