It has been a few years since I have been here. The first time the food was absolutely phenomenal. We were a big group and sat in a large booth near the front of the restaurant. We probably had everything on the menu and everything was decadent. The cocktails were also really creative and fun. The second time I was a little turned off by the setup as they removed booths in the front to create a little club near the bar. It changed the ambience completely and took away from the whole aesthetic of the venue. There were only 4 of us so we did not order as much. The empanadas and wings this time around were good but not as good as last time. The rib eye was cooked to our liking and was delicious. The short rib noodles were also very flavorful. The cocktails were ok compared to last time. I'm not sure if we'd god back, maybe just for the steak! But we would probably try a new place Overall we had a good dinner, excellent service and dining experience.

Plenty of wait staff when I was there. Small selection, easy to decide, friendly hostess let me pick my table at 4:45p, not busy yet. Nice view of kitchen from my table, not noisy. The location is easy to get to, on street parking free after 6p, good walkable neighborhood.

The food was amazing. We sat at the bar because it was packed. Definitely recommend the salad it was so fresh and light. The beef was so tender, and the ribeye was cooked to perfection.

Had an excellent experience at Botika. We started with the tequenos, which are incredible. I had the short rib noodles, and the flavor was truly amazing. My wife had the Salmon Pave, and it was also excellent. The service was absolutely first rate, as well. If you're looking for something amazingly good, you cannot go wrong with Botika

We stopped by the sake sample booth they had during the market and decided to eat. This is an Asian fusion restaurant but they do offer meals for those less adventurous (i.e. chicken sandwiches, burgers, and chicken and waffles). I enjoyed my build your own bowl but suggest you add the sauce from the short rib noodle wok. Francheca can make a wide array of beverages. Worth a try.
This restaurant has an Asian Venezuelan fusion. I was very excited to try this place, as my husband is Venezuelan, and we love the food. The food was delicious and the portions were large as well. The service was good - our server was attentive and kind. The prices are a bit inflated in my opinion, but it’s worth giving it a try. I absolutely recommend both, the appetizer and desert tequeños, as well as the empanadas. They even have a reina pepiada sushi roll!!! A must try!

Dining at **Senses in the Dark** was an unforgettable experience that engaged all my senses in unique and unexpected ways. The concept of a blindfolded meal heightened my appreciation for flavors, textures, and aromas. Without the visual distractions, I was able to focus entirely on the intricate tastes and the artful presentation of each dish, even though I couldn't see them.
The staff was incredibly attentive and skilled, guiding us through the dining room with care and ensuring we felt comfortable throughout the meal. Their descriptions of each course were vivid and evocative, setting the stage for an immersive culinary adventure.
The menu was a delightful surprise, with each course offering a balance of familiar and exotic ingredients, crafted into harmonious and innovative dishes. The lack of sight made every bite a revelation, challenging my palate and broadening my appreciation for the art of cooking.
The ambiance of the restaurant, with its serene and contemplative atmosphere, allowed for a deep connection with the food and the dining companions. **Senses in the Dark** is not just a meal, but a journey into the depths of flavor and sensation, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a truly unique and memorable dining experience.

Botika had the best steak I have had in a long time, cooked perfectly. I added the fried egg.
My wife and daughter each enjoyed their Peruvian and Asian inspired dishes.
The service was really good. We had a really nice night on the patio.
