Circa at The Boro

We went for restaurant week. The food was excellent and service was great. We selected Circa randomly, but we were not disappointed. We will go back!

My experience was excellent. The food very delicious. We were very satisfied with my husband on our anniversary day. I recommend that you go with your loved ones.

When I say this food is decadent, I’m searching for an even elevated word!! Circa at The Boro was impeccable! My boyfriend and I went for the soft opening and was served by Amy. She was knowledgeable about the menu, had great descriptions for each dish and knew exactly what drink to pair with each dish. We had the Waygu sliders - hands down the BEST sliders I have had. They are perfectly balanced with juicy flavor, marinara sauce and some kind of pesto/guac sauce. The caesar salad was crisp and the dressing was made in house. Very creamy and delicious! Also, well balanced, the salad was not over dressed. We had the scallops and short rib for entrees. The scallops had the most perfect crust and sat on top of a bed of mushroom risotto. The risotto was a little under cooked - crunchy, but delicious all the same. The short rib came in a three level tower - mash potatoes, short rib, and topped with THIN fried onion rings. The meat was so soft, we could eat it with a spoon! No knife needed! We paired our entrees with the Old Fashioned drink which is served with a piece of rock ice. This is how bourbon should be served. The ice maintains its form therefore it doesn’t water down your drink. I was able to sip and enjoy over the course of 15 minutes and probably could have drug it out longer. I couldn’t…. It was the second best Old Fashioned I’ve had! We wrapped up the night with pumpkin cheesecake. It was light and had such a light flavor. There was nothing overbearing about it. The manager Rory was wonderful in conversation and making sure everything was just right. We even were able to meet the owner, Vince, who was also very nice and excited about the night. My boyfriend and I had just eaten out at another upscale restaurant the night before and Circa outperformed in every way! I am a life long patron of this restaurant group and this was only my first experience!

Purple Rain drink is delicious. The wagyu beef sliders, macaroni, scallops, and tuna nachos were all fantastic! The servers and bartenders were all super nice.

We ate today for the soft opening and every dish was fantastic! The portions were generous and we tried the Brussels sprouts and spinach salad for appetizer and the eggplant Parmesan sandwich and Italian flatbread for mains. The Brussels were addictive and nicely complemented by the blue cheese sauce without being over sauced. The spinach salad had a lot of flavor and ate like a meal on its own. The eggplant Parmesan sandwich was generous on the pesto which gave it a garlic bread like quality. The flatbread was crispy without being greasy which is much appreciated around the holidays and all the heavy food. We tried a mule from the bar with great ginger flavor and a zero alcohol concoction with grapefruit and rosemary. The wait staff was attentive and thoughtful. We would order all of these items again and looking forward to coming back!
