I came in on Saturday right at the end of the lunch menu, beginning of dinner. You can sit inside or outside. There are heaters outside since it's cooling down for winter. I dined alone, however I saw couples, friends, and families dining together also. I ordered a cup of clam chowder, shrimp burger, fries and slaw. Everything tasted good! I loved the clam chowder! I didn’t really like the slaw, but I'm picky about my slaw. The service was good. Nothing over the top, but it wasn't bad. Just nothing super memorable. I was just in town for the day, but I do plan to eat here again.
Went over for some seafood with the family and we all loved what we bought. I saw Panang Curry with shrimp but can't eat shrimp, they did a great job at swapping the shrimp for fish and it was delicious. The pasta dishes and fried platters were also very good. Great atmosphere, food, and service. Shout out to our waiter Ethan, we'll done young man!!
Great restaurant with nice outdoor space (was a little cold last night to eat out) and beautiful views of the water. The drinks were spot on, and the atmosphere was perfect for a night out. Our group of 10 was handled with ease by the friendly and attentive staff. Highly recommend The Boro for a fun and relaxing evening!000
I came here on a Sunday night for my Anniversary. I have never been here but heard about it friends. It looks like it would be a really fun place on the weekends with their outside sitting and heaters. It's cozy inside. When we arrived it was an hour before closing so there wasn't very many people which made it a nice atmosphere for the purpose of our visit. Our server was very nice, very friendly and informative. The bartender was also amazing. He made our drinks very well. They were delicious. We got the Cajun pasta, shrimp and Tuscan Chicken along with turtle cheesecake and a chocolate overload slice. All of it was amazing and delicious. We will definitely be coming back to try out the other items on the menu.
For the first time in our 54 years of marriage, I heard my wife complain about a dish she had been served in a restaurant. She ordered shrimp and grits without reading the menu description. We are coastal Southerners who grew up eating shrimp and grits. We have seen a simple working person's breakfast evolve into a complex dish served with several savory innovations (cheese grits, andoulill sausage, etc.) This dish was more a mutation than an evolution with picked watermelon, pickled jalapeños, goat cheese, a sickeningly sweet honey sauce puddled over 18-25 count shrimp overcooked to the size of crayfish tails. When my wife said the dish was not good and that she had grown up with better, the waiter responded that, "maybe Yankees just didn't know how to make it to Southern tastes." I a
