“Despite all of the accolades and awards Boka still feels underrated to me. I dined there with my wife for our Anniversary tonight and they were spectacular! The service was friendly, professional, and fancy (fancier than I’m used too, it was an experience) the building is as stylish as the creative plating. The cuisine all hit me in multiple layers like a perfect boxing combo before laying out my taste buds, they died happy) they even personalized menus and dessert for our anniversary! I can’t recommend Boka more!“

“The food, atmosphere, and service were all exceptional! Everything, down to the drink names, perfectly complemented the ambiance.

It’s truly a must-visit!“

“I'm from Iowa, took a little weekend trip to Chicago. A friend told us we HAD to try Lula's. SO thankful we did. I will be traveling back to Chicago just to take my mom here. Outstanding service from every single employee, incredible food, and just overall 10/10. Absolutely recommend.“

“They make the absolute, hands down, best meatball grinder I've ever had. Everything about it is otherworldly.
The meatballs are well flavored and have the ideal texture and consistency one could ask of a meatball. There's an herby, garlicky flavor which is very noticeable without being overwhelming.
The sauce is just a little sweet, just enough to contrast with the meat. There was mozzarella and it seemed like a little bit of ricotta too, but not too much to make it gloopy.
The bread was perfect, really more of a hard, crusty, fresh baked roll. It provided a crunchy contrast while standing up to the healthy heaping of ball and sauce and cheese.
It was the best sandwich I've had all year and the best meatball sandwich I've ever had.“

“Great selection of American & Mediterranean. Falafel plate & Kefta kabobs were fantastic & prepared fresh. Unexpected array of dessert options, as well. Win!“
