“We had another delicious and fun Spanish themed paella dinner party at home with friends, thanks to Chef Kristin and her staff at BCN Paellas. The paella was delicious and it's so beautifully presented in the pan! We had the chocolate filled beignets for dessert. So good! Thanks Chef! We look forward to our next paella party.“
“Fabulous birthday dinner for 18 at Zest Valencia Bonita on Oct 1. The food was excellent, service outstanding, fantastic birthday cake! Thank you to Manager John for organizing our celebration and to his team for taking such good care of us.“
“The only issue involved a runner She was downright nasty One salad was requested with no blue cheese Instead of taking the salad back and replacing it with the correct order the runner berated the waitress and partially threw the new salad at our guest Definitely not appropriate“
“Definitely a hidden gem. I would expect to see a restaurant like this on 5th Ave. I kept hearing about the amazing reviews from clients so we decided to have my birthday dinner here. The Bronzino was one of the best I’ve had. Location is important and I feel their food was a little too high end for this plaza and they deserve all the credit. But like they say, it doesn’t matter where you go, it matters what you get. Absolutely incredible:“
“Went to the Mercado for dinner on a friday. Afterward we walked over to Cavo and got to walk right in, had excellent bar service, listen to a fun and talented band, had so much fun dancing until 9:30 when the DJ went on. Played great 70s-90s music, low key relaxed but classy crowd. When we left at 10:30, there was a big line of twentysomethings waiting to get in.“
“Bohemianism, a social and cultural movement that has, at its core, an avoidance of society's conventional norms and expectations, perfectly sums up this wonderful restaurant and cocktail bar in Bonita Springs. The culinary emphasis at The Bohemian is a sharing style menu with global influences. Using a Florida hardwood oak grill and locally sourced seasonal ingredients, dishes are freshly prepared by talented chef and owner Brandon Schewe and served when ready. We had stopped by for some amazing “Eye Openers and Proper Beginnings” at the Boho Bar. Using herbs and shrubs cultivated from the organic rooftop garden, the “It’s a Rich Life” with one of our favourite Monkey Shoulder scotches and a hint of mezcal, was an absolute winner, as was the tequila based “Blood and Passion”, sparky with jalapeño and lime. But as for the food? One word…Sublime. Starting with the Caramelized Stonefruit Burrata with Field Greens, Saba Reduction, Olive Oil, Onion Ash, and Sourdough, then a Warm Crab & Lobster Jar with Herbed Citrus Butter, Mango, and Grilled Bread, and finally Sweet Pig Buns with House Kim Chi and Gochujang. We then ordered the pescatarian paradise that was the Royale Tower, an extravaganza of Oysters, Shrimp Cocktail, Seasonal Crab, Ceviche, and Lobster Meat. And the Aged Tomahawk Ribeye Steaks were perfectly pink, with the most incredible sides of Japanese Sweet Potato , Caramelized Baby Bok Choy & Okonomiyaki Sauce. The Bohemian’s mantra is that good food is meant to be shared, and when it’s as fantastic as this, it’s impossible not to wax lyrical about this deliciously unconventional and delightfully eclectic cuisine.“
