"Under brand-new chef Giuseppe Tentori, for nine years chef de cuisine at Charlie Trotter's, the menu at Boka will still be contemporary American, says co-owner Kevin Boehm, "but more progressive, its flavors cleaner. Starters alone range from stuffed squi..."

"If you're doing Steppenwolf pretheater dinner on North Halsted, this unpretentious spot gets foodies' stamp of approval. A seasonally driven menu with standouts such as seared foie gras, salmon tartare, Mediterranean-style snapper, and roast venison loin..."

"In a neighborhood full of Irish pubs and casual sandwich joints, Boka is a sophisticated, grown-up alternative. The dimly lit dining room manages to be both romantic and dramatic, thanks to the fabric "sculptures" stretched across the ceiling...."

"Already a touted restaurant, years-old Boka got a shot in the arm when it scored ex-Trotter vet Guiseppe Tentori who first came from Milan---sans English skills---to work with Gabriel Viti at the age of 19. Boka's menu, which was already good, has gotten..."

"Designed by Bogdanow Partners, who made their mark on such famed NYC hot spots as the Tribeca Grand Hotel and Rubicon (Robert De Niro's restaurant), Boka's look is both comfortable and cosmopolitan. Espresso-hued floors, soft leather banquettes and a gene..."

"Tentori"s food typically has many elements, and the synergy between everything on the plate has a tendency to sneak up on you. The Yukon potato soup, for example, is almost quizzically subtle...."
