Boca Muse

March 26, 2009
Boca Muse is one whacky place. Formerly an English-style pub, its now part pub, part restaurant, part cafe, part lounge. Apparently many of the employees of the nearby restaurants have made it their regular hang out. The wine list was actually a collection of reviews, some with ‘suggested retail prices’ but none of the actual retail prices. Instead of selecting a wine from the list, we were asked to just tell the waitress what were looking for and she would make some suggestions. We just looked in their wine refrigerator and finally found a reasonably priced 2006 Sancerre. After being told everything was on the menu, including the ‘too big for one’ empanadas, we found out they were in fact out of empanadas. Despite all the whackiness, we found the food to be pretty good. We had ‘mac-n-cheese’ (this was OK but nothing special); quesadillas, a small tomato basil pizza, grilled cheeses with pesto, a blt sandwich on multigrain bread, fish tacos, and a delicious crab cake. For dessert, we had a ‘smores cheese cake. A real good time was had by all.
