I felt in the past that DZ Restaurants were just so-so. To me, Forno Bistro was good, and Chianti was overrated. Well I have been to Boca Bistro twice this month, and Margarita and I have become big fans of that Spanish Tapas restaurant on Broadway.
We were there earlier tonight with my Mother-in-law, and the service, flavor and presentation of the food was just fantastic. Everything about the experience was so enjoyable.

Unlike some Saratoga restaurants, DZ Restaurants obviously puts a lot of effort into hiring and training their staff. In the words of a certain feline cereal spokesman...
OK, using Tony was a tad hokey, but you get the point. The prices are reasonable as well, especially if you are part of the DZ Restaurants Rewards program. We don't dine at DZ Restaurants often at all, but I nonetheless had $18.50 in rewards discounts from our few visits in the past year. That works.
So if you haven't been to Boca Bistro, then check it out. The food is different without being off the wall, and the service is top-knotch. If you do get there, let me know what you think.
