Sushi by Bou- Boca Raton FL @ Royal Palm Place

Chef Tim — 10/10 experience. Every bite was thoughtful, balanced, and incredibly fresh. The progression of the sushi was spot-on, with standout flavors that felt both creative and respectful of the fish. You can tell how much care and precision goes into each piece. Thank you for such a memorable omakase — can’t wait to come back! 🍣

Aside from the fact that they weren’t able to serve my father and stepmother several of the drinks they had asked for due to availability, this location was still a great experience overall. The service was amazing, the food was incredible—as it always is at any Sushi by Bou location—and the vibes were great. If you’ve ever been to the Las Olas location, I think a lot would agree it was something special. Unfortunately, it has since closed. While the Great Gatsby–themed atmosphere at this location is fun, I think it ultimately comes down to personal preference. The Las Olas location had a cool disco vibe that felt completely different, and I absolutely loved it (maybe because I’m younger). That said, if you love sushi and aren’t a picky eater, Sushi by Bou is a must. I will always recommend this place to anyone I know!

Cute theming, nice quality ingredients overall. Not the best omakase in the area, but still ok with comfortable ingredients for folks who may be a bit newer to this style of creative nigiri. Some cons: pricy for what you get and feels a bit rushed. Even though we were are the bar, it felt hard to get chef’s attention. We were looking to add on some hand rolls, and we were told we needed to order them from the chef. Getting the chef’s attention to do so was a little difficult. The cheapest dinner is nice for the price but some bites weren’t particularly astounding. Some pieces weren’t as fresh as I’d wished. Overall, it’s a cute spot if you want flashier theming for your omakase. But I found myself missing other omakase places I’ve been to while I was here.

Absolutely fantastic! This was such a fun and high-quality experience that I would do it again in a heartbeat. J & J were incredibly entertaining and professional, making it well worth the value.

Top freaking notch! The food and Chefs from Bou are always excellent -- but the vibe and energy at this location was so amazing and fun! It was my wife's birthday and Nicole the hostess and the chefs were non stop having a blast. The whole restaurant got in to it! Did not see that coming! 10/10 would recommend and the sushi is always superb!

All of the above and more. Excellent service, excellent fresh fish, and excellent combinations. The sushi chefs kept the food rolling as soon as the experience started. They were entertaining and answered all of our stupid questions.

Amazing Omakase experience. Have been here multiple times it is a phenomenal experience.

The most welcoming host and chef They were so sweet and funny I’ve been to quite a few omakases but this one really blew me away simply from how you’re treated the moment you walk through the door. Tasted all kinds of sushi and had some extras on top added that really made the night something I’ll always remember. If you love omakase or it’s your first time I would definitely recommend to try this place out.

I love Sushi by Bou. The food, drinks, ambience, and chefs are amazing! The best sushi I've ever had! Christian(bar tender) Jeff and Yang (chefs who prepared the sushi) were polite, energetic, entertaining and engaged from beginning to end. We ordered the 17 course Omakase, Caviar Bump Kit, and the Sake Flight to Heaven! I have zero complaints! I try to visit at least once a month!

If you want an elevated sushi experience then Omakase is for you! From start to finish the ambiance is warm and inviting. The preparation of all the dishes are done in front of you. The quality of the fish is next level. Many pieces fish were from Japan. You have a seating time, and during that you get a certain number of pieces. We ordered the 17 piece. Each was amazing and meticulously crafted. You don't typically see any of the dishes in regular sushi restaurants. So good, check them out!

Our reservation was at 7:30pm, but the host had us wait in the lobby. We waited in the lobby for about 10 minutes for drinks and another 10-15 minutes to be seated at the omakase bar. This was roughly 25 minutes past our reservation time, which was a bit frustrating. The omakase itself felt too fast-paced compared to others I've tried. I prefer a slower, more intimate experience where the chef explains the fish, techniques, and ingredients used. The 12 pieces were tasty and definitely better than average sushi, but nothing stood out. For the price, the food was fair, but the drinks were not (I paid $20 for what was basically a cup of ice, which was disappointing.) The ambience wasn't for me either. It was very upscale and trendy, whereas I prefer a quieter, calmer setting. The music was a little too loud, making it hard to hear both the chefs and the people next to me. The seating at the omakase bar was also cramped, and I kept bumping elbows with the person beside me. The chefs were kind and tried to be engaging, but the pace of the meal made it feel rushed. Overall, this might be enjoyable if it's your first omakase, but if you've experienced others, you may leave a bit disappointed. I personally wouldn't return.

I have to say, I started a little frustrated due to some miscommunication with my reso notes and providing me an update the day of when it was too late to make any changes without them keeping my $$- but I don't think it was the fault of this location. I believe the resos are handled separately from the company as a whole. THIS location did make a recovery! Smiling face walking into the front which set us back to the right mood. The food is always amazing here. The sushi is extremely fresh and paired with just the perfect ingredients. The sushi chefs are just so happy and dancing along. All around this place, the music, the people are a vibe! One side note, personally would not recommend the matcha cheesecake dessert, and love matcha and love cheesecake but that was not the move. At the end of the day, that's not what we came for, the SUSHI and drinks plus service is amazing!

I'm a long time customer, having lived in NYC for many years, and have visited almost every location. This may be my favorite. The interior is small, but large enough where you're not feeling cramped. Great area for having a drink or eating if you don't like sitting at the bar. The omakase is on point, as usual. I'd highly recommend the bougie omakase. A little more expensive, but definitely worth it. The quality of the food and presentation is on par with some of the top places in south florida, but at a far lower price point.

This was such a great experience and I had such a fun time! The guys making the sushi were so kind and did a great job describing what we were getting. I had the strawberry basil martini and it was great. They give you a few sake shots with the dinner which was a good touch. My favorite bites were the prawn (botanebi) scallop (hotate) waygu and eel (unagi). Will definitely come back for the next special occasion! Thank you!

Sushi by Bou has been on my radar for awhile and since my husband and I are obsessed with anything sushi decided to give it a try. He has been before and was explaining a little bit about this omakase experience is not as unique as the other ones we've been to but that for the price it was pretty good. We decided to upgrade to the bougie menu to try other options beside of the pre fix menu items. We walked in and we were greeted and escorted to the waiting area until they were ready to sit everyone. We looked over the drink menu and both of us had an idea of what we wanted. There were only 7 other guests and the host sat us in between 2 other couples. I was very uncomfortable and you could barely lift your arms without touching the person next to you (the rest of the sushi bar was open so they could've spread us out a bit more) but ok. They started immediately serving sushi pieces on a plate without any introduction or like a little story of the place. Since my husband told me in advance I was ready for the fast sushi experience but not this fast. All this happening and we still had no drinks in our hands, we had to constantly flag the server/host to take our orders. Most of the time he was on his phone or chatting with the bartender. One of the other guests asked the sushi chef if he had to order a drink with them, obviously not and they had to call Over the host to take his drink order. No bueno. The fish selection was great! My favorite was the hamachi (one of the best I've had) the miso cod and the Spanish mackerel. At the beginning the chefs were just describing what we were eating and towards the middle of the experience they were more engaged with the crowd and that kind of offset the first part. They were very friendly sharing experiences with food and joking around which was nice. If this is your first omakase experience you will have a good time no matter what but for people that have been to one before, the fast pace environment doesn't sit well. Again, for the price you pay compared to other places it is worth it, but I wish it was bit slower and share more about the origin of the fish, technique... etc. lastly to the host if he/she could to be a more attentive to the guests specially when there's no one else besides us and my husband had the same experience last time he visited the place.

What can I say that hasn't been said in other reviews. My wife and I scheduled this for a kid free night out and it did not disappoint. We did the 5:45 seating and when we got there we sat down and got one of their signature cocktails before being seated. You get seated right in front of the sushi chefs as among the other guests and get to interact and watch them prepare each piece. We decided to splurge and get the 17 course and wow I am glad that we did, each course was a unique mix of flavors. I would highly recommend this as a spot for a special occasion and will definitely be returning.

Overall, great sushi but I left very hungry after only having a total of 7 meager pieces of sushi. One thing you must know, is that the whole attempt at making the dining experience seem unique was totally overthrown and flawed by the insanely ridiculous price point. I really hope it's just another fad that will soon pass because when I eat sushi, I want to EAT sushi and enjoy multiple rolls.

From the ambiance, service and food, Bou is incredible! Highly recommend the sake flight, as it truly compliments the chef selections.

We've been here twice. Always great service and food. Great date night. My top three were the fatty tuna, Ikura, and the scallop. Can't wait to go back.

Great first omakase experience. Everything tasted delicious. Staff is very friendly. Their ginger is also great. Would come back.

We had to wait about 15 minutes for our Sunday dinner seating, but the (2) chefs on duty made up for the delay and they "kicked it up a notch" when I told them we had already been to the DC location. Chefs were funny, engaging, and answered all our sushi questions. Unlike DC, this spot sliced the fish right in front of us for every serving. I was impressed by the wood chips and the grand finale of audience participation. If you have never had Omakase, this is a great to start your journey! I forgot to mention this is a very intimate location with Speakeasy vibes right out of a movie. Well done Boca!

If you're a foodie looking for a fun experience with friends, Sushi by Bou is your next stop! My husband, friends and I went here for my birthday dinner and it was magical from the moment we stepped through the door. We were promptly checked in (reservation is required) and escorted into a very intimate space with a "speakeasy" vibe. While you wait for your reservation you can order drinks from their cocktail menu that includes all types of liquor, plus wine, Japanese beer, and sake. All specialty cocktails are $18. I ordered the "Boca Bang" and my husband ordered the "Pony Boy." They only seat 12 people per dining experience that is approximately 1hr long. This is the most efficient dining experience I've ever had. The hostess/waiters anticipate your every need and interact with you and the chef seamlessly. The chefs were so much fun and were carrying conversation with everyone while effortlessly crafting each bite. You get 12 individual sushi pieces for $65, or you can upgrade to 17 pieces for $125. They also offer all pieces a La carte for an additional fee. There wasn't one bite that I didn't love! Each piece has its own creative flare, with a medley of toppings that send your taste buds soaring! Two bites I could have endlessly were the Hamachi and the Scallop. Talk about melt in your mouth. If you're new to Omakase, like me, go and book a reservation with Sushi by Bou immediately! I'm already planning my next visit with more friends.

Sushi by Bou is making its rounds in South Florida as the freshest sushi and well priced omakase around. The Mizner location is no different and is spot on with professional service and top quality food. I have been here twice now. Trying the 17 course $125 menu the first time and trying the 12 course $60 menu the second time. I thought the 12 course menu would not give delicacies such as uni but it did! I wasn't full off the 12 course but you can add additional sushi pieces a la carte when you're done. The 17 course had me full for sure. I enjoy that the menu changes from time to time. I had a miso cod wrapped in seawood on my last visit and it was so good. The omakase here is speedy - having you in and out within an hour. I can never go back to regular sushi rolls. Parking is hard to find on a weekend but on a week night, there were plenty of spots. Thanks for the experience Sushi by Bou!

This place is so fun! I took myself out for my birthday and it did not disappoint! As I was driving, I hit terrible weather and loads of traffic so I ended up being 15 minutes late to my reservation time (the worst, I know), they were very understanding and had the first course waiting. Sitting at the omakase bar is a fun experience and the chef was great at explaining each course. I know some reviews complained that 12 pieces of sushi isn't enough food but I was very satiated and enjoyed every bite! They were also to make slight adjustments to the courses if needed. I'm pescatarian and can't eat meat so they adjusted the surf and turf. The staff were very attentive and I liked the intimate setting. I'll definitely be back! I will be trying the bougie omakase next! (17 courses)

Never having tried an Omakase curated dinner before I was eager to add the experience to my list. Upon hearing about the Summer Sunday Special, the lovely Spensyr planned an amazing date night for us! With less than a dozen seats at the bar and a couple of small sofas, Sushi by Bou gives off a bit of a speakeasy vibe, only slightly offset by the contemporary pop music playing in the background. We arrived a few minutes early for our timed seating and were ushered to the aforementioned sofas to have a cocktail while we waited. I went with rum, Spensyr went with Mezcal but both were delicious. Eventually we took our seats at the bar and the fun began! Sushi by Bou is a chain, and as such consistency is key, which is all well and good, but it also means the 12 course Omakase menu is posted on the wall and never changes... Don't get me wrong, it was all insanely delicious but knowing that it will be the same tasting menu next week, next month, or 6 states away does kinda lessen the special experience of it and relegates this to a special occasion or couples night out rather than a regular event. Even moreso when the chef informed us that it wasn't based on seasonality, or any special taste profile but instead it is the fish they can regularly get in stock at all locations. Just loses some of the "oomph" to know that it isn't special. Our menu was prawn, urchin, eel, scallops, caviar, several types of fish, and wagyu, all expertly prepared by chefs Tim and Lee, and was so good that after it was over we ordered a couple of our favorite pieces ala carte. We each had our own choices about best bite but not a one was less than stellar. I don't have the room to upload all the photos taken so you only get the top picks, but between the smell of seared meat and fish, the rainbow of colors, and myriad of tastes, this was truly a feast for all the senses.

Sushi by Bou in Boca Raton offers an intimate omakase experience with a 1920s art deco theme. Enjoy a 12- or 17-course menu with cocktails featuring the freshest seafood prepared by skilled sushi chefs. My personal favorite is the miso cod

Love this location. I've only gone to the downtown wpb and now boca locations. We got in on a Sunday evening, the 5pm slot. Was a bit early for me but they didn't have 730pm available. The whole team was great that night. They played great early 2000s music which was just up my alley for a lady in her mid-30s. :) The ambiance as you can see in my photos were very sexy, moody, old Hollywood vibes. Great date night or girls night. They created such a great experience for us. The Omakase was also great. There were a few of my favs such as the miso cod, otoro! Drinks were also very good! For those that haven't had the omakase experience you should start here first!

Very pretty decor, plushy seating around the main bar area where you sit while you wait for your omakase seating. Once seated, your experience begins. There's two options, 12 pieces basic and 15 pieces upgraded with a few more luxurious sources pieces. I usually like to start with basic and add some extra at the end if I'm still hungry. The 12 course is pretty good, some solid creations. My favorite was the miso cod and the Otoro with truffle oil and caviar. The Sushi by Bou omakase only has nigiri pieces, no hot kitchen items or dessert options. The sushi chef is quick and efficient, didn't talk much but introduced each piece.

Hands down one of the best food experiences I've had. My SIL decided to do the omakase experience on a whim while I was visiting her in south Florida and we were not disappointed. Though we arrived on time, the experience started about 45 minutes later and to be honest after starting and seeing the preparation and the interactions the sushi chefs and staff had with the guests I wasn't even bothered. They were fun, they explained everything and most of all they took their time to create in front of you. They created edible art and that takes time. The drinks were fantastic, strong but flavorful and complex. The sake shots provided as part of the dinner were fun. It felt both entirely intimate but also super friendly sitting at the bar with other guests. The meal consisted of nigiri. Each piece specially crafted, unique and completely complex. This is not a place where you just get sushi, this is an experience where the purpose is to truly taste what great seafood is. After the first bite we decided we had to come back again and try the extended "bougie" experience. Absolutely adored this place and my favorite place by far in south Florida!

It's always a good time at Sushi by Bou!! We usually go to the Fort Lauderdale location but decided to go to the Boca one since it's a different theme at each location. Our chefs were amazing! Shoutout to Chef Le!! He was fun to sit on the omakase experience with! Also, shoutout to our bartender Matt! He was awesome! We always end up getting the Big Mac, which is not included with the omakase but it is a must try and worth every penny! The fish is always fresh and flavorful!

Our first time and will definitely be back! Amazing food, super fun staff and chefs, great cocktails, and a nice atmosphere. Highly recommend this unique experience.

Honestly I went into this so excited it was my boyfriend and i's anniversary and he decided to surprise me and go to dinner here. I really was not impressed. My boyfriend is allergic to citrus and it seemed like they did NOT care about allergies. 2 times he got served something with citrus on it and I had to tell them more than 2 times about it. Didn't accommodate the pieces of sushi when they messed up, only gave him 1 different one in the beginning. When the person next to us didn't eat eel and they gave him our package (the more expensive package) my boyfriend paid over $400 and was definitely not worth it. Don't waste your time way better places out there.

Been craving omakase and when I found out South Florida has some, I had to check it out. First omakase in Florida and I truly enjoyed it. The location was good. The ambiance of the place was nice; I enjoyed the vibes. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. The food - fantastic. You have an option of doing either a 12 or 17 course omakase experience. Chef prepares everything in front of you and it was just awesome that you get to watch the chef and his techniques. I did the 12 course experience and it was really neat and I truly enjoyed it. (Price was not bad either) If you never had omakase before and want to try the experience, I definitely recommend Sushi by Bou. Side note: Parking is free but the spots are tight

The ambience, food and cocktails were delicious! However, the sushi chefs could not create the type of experience we expected. They would serve us each piece and not even say what it is - I had to ask each time and I could barely hear anything when they would respond...One of the chefs said the main chef was not there that day - I wonder if it would have been better with them around. On the whole, still had a really good time, but expected more.

Food was amazing and the quality is legit but I really wanted to see my favorite bartender heather. Last time in Fort Lauderdale she really made our experience special, and the drinks were some of the best cocktails I've ever had in my life. Her customer service skills and the way she connected with not only us but the whole bar made our night.

Amazing!!!! My beautiful and thoughtful wife surprised me with a Omakase 18 course sushi dinner, which is a unique experience in its own. There was a small group of us (as reservations are required for the experience) about 6 couples I would say, they lined us up by the sushi bar and the presentation begins. Now, I can't recall each of the delicious and unique sushi rolls they offered us, but each bite got better and better. The drinks are also very good, craft drinks that are tasty and strong. The sushi was fresh and as I said, unique. The entire experience lasted about 90min. The food ...... definitely 5 stars!!!!! but I am deducting 1 star for the fact that we were the 3rd couple to arrive and they sit you accordingly, but for some reason they sat us at the end of the corner, so we we're unable to interact or see the sushi chefs create these wonderful masterpieces. When they sat us, my wife mentioned if we could get a closer seat and the waitress said "oh you have the best seat in the house" and that was not quite accurate. We were unable to hear or see the chefs as they create each unique roll, did it ruin the experience, not at all, but would have been better if we were able to be up close. Couples that arrived after us were given better seats. So this was a bit of a bummer for us, but nonetheless, the food was exquisite. We would definitely try this experience again in the future and hopefully can get a better seat. If you haven't tried it yet, I recommend you do, it's not cheap, but it's a great dinner experience to share with your significant other.

We came here on a Saturday night for a private birthday party. The restaurant is small but it has a romantic and fun atmosphere. Sushi by bou is an omakase style restaurant, therefore make sure you have a reservation before you come. I think the service was excellent and would recommend someone to take their date here as the price is pretty reasonable (as opposed to Taki omakase nearby, because that's where you take your wife/ spouse / husband there!) Onto the food. I personally did not think this establishment exceed my expectations for omakase restaurants. I think this place is decent, friendly, fun, with amazing drinks. But besides that, the sushi were above average in my opinion. I would return with a large group of friends, rather than a night of adventure of trying some unique sushi joint.

Such an amazing Omakaze experience... food and service were divine !!! Such a lovely and magical experience

Wow. Great place for a different kind of dining experience. I found their promotion for bogo omakase dinner so I booked it and was able to get a reservation as early as the following day. I was only disappointed to find out it was for another location that I did not specify in the email that was asked of me to send. However it's not too much further from my place so I didn't mind, just would have liked a notice. Was able to find parking easily and found the spot situated in front of a beautiful fountain. We were greeted and checked in right away and were shown to the lounging area and presented with a drink menu. I got a glass of the nigori dreamy clouds. A bit more bitter than what I was looking for so I got the gin & flowers cocktail which was really good! The dining experience was great. Everything was delicious and our chef, Nicolas, was nice. A bit less talkative of an experience than I thought it would be (more educational I guess like talking more in depth about the fish, etc). Definitely a fun and interesting experience where you get to let go and try new things you may not have thought to try. The location is a great size, nice and cozy lounge & bar with jazz, gatsby vibes. I won't lie we were still hungry towards the end and if there is extra time they offer to make more for additional charges (one we asked for was $10 more). We ended up just getting a snack somewhere and were full after that so keep in mind this may not be a filling dining experience.

What a wonderful experience. We opted for the 17 course "Bou-gie" experience. 17 beautifully delicious courses of different nigiri. Our favorites included the hamachi, surf and turf and scallops of the original 12. The additional seasonal nigiri included our second favorite: a gorgeous amberjack with a chimichurri sauce. But the best was the additional Big Mac- a mini hand roll of wagyu, toro, uni and scallop. Each fish was sliced to perfection in front of us by Chef Tim who is a master of the arts having worked for Chef Morimoto and Eric Ripert in the past. Service was quick, drinks were excellent t and the speakeasy vibes were great. My only comment was that I wish the music was a LITTLE lower. But a yummy birthday experience.

Visiting from out of town we received a gift certificate for Bou and were skeptical; we have been to Japan many times and also have great Edomai sushi at home. We were very pleasantly surprised -- this was a great meal! The quality of fish and rice was very good, the space is stylish, and the service was attentive. The 12-piece standard omakase is an unbelievable deal for what is provided, a reasonable portion (although I would consider it more of a lunch size), and extra nigiri and handrolls are available at a fair price. Our host, Nicole, was knowledgeable and professional. The small sake list is also very well selected, with premium options by the glass that are unlikely to be found even at an even more premium setting. The 60-minute timed service is a tight fit, but understandable given the constraints. Similarly, it's odd to have a fixed menu for something as seasonal as sushi, and I wish the fried botan ebi heads were served with the nigiri... but at this market segment, this was fantastic and delightful. I would recommend for anyone looking for an upscale sushi dinner, or an introduction to Edomai-style sushi.

I'm not new to omakase or expensive dining. This was an "ok" experience. To start things off, yes, fish is phenomenal. Truly top quality ingredients. And yes, it tastes better than your regular sushi spot in town. The cocktails ($18) are quite well made as well. The bartender was quick to take orders and responsive to checking on you. The experience is a fast 60 minutes - not rushed, but not somewhere for you to linger. Seatings are done as a group at the bar, so they reasonably do need to turn over. With only 6 people in our seating, (2 of which had the larger experience all in the same 60 minute time) it was surprising to me how inconsistent the sushi was between people! Portions were not the same size for all diners, and in the case of uni, looked like as much as a 2x variation between the biggest and smallest piece. For some of the torched pieces, again, there were ones that looked completely charred and ones that seemed to have barely hit the flame. Omakase, in my experience, is about perfection and attention to detail, quality over quantity. Chef is making just 6 pieces at a time, and yet, there did not appear to be care to make them all the same. One salmon piece had an noticeable fat chunk. At one point, the bartender came to hand out drinks, a yuzu forward shot. Fun idea, but didn't specify when passing out shots that we would take them with the staff, making it a bit awkward when we sipped them and were politely scolded to wait until after a bro-y toast that didn't seem to land with the Sunday night small crowd. A simpler "kanpai" would have sufficed. The sushi chefs were friendly, but didn't heavily interact despite some light conversation and praise for different pieces. When the fat chunk on the salmon was pointed out, they smiled and said "yes, it's good!" with no attempt to see that it was not, and it was a small part that did need to be spit out. Lastly, 7 pieces is not much. While I don't expect omakase to fill me up, the a la carte offerings of $28 per piece "Big Mac" or $16 mochi seemed a bit ridiculous on top of a $60 pp + $18 drinks. Ultimately, while the fish was wonderful, the value and experience just didn't sit with me as something I would come back to.

We arrived 15 mins before our resv and were told to grab any open seat seat in the dining and wait. Others arrived and did the same. You are sitting behind the current diners and they are being kindly shoo'd out the door so you can take one of only 12 seats at the bar. They took orders for drinks from everyone but somehow ours failed to arrive The dining room is quite dark and felt a bit tired- worn. When we finally were offered our seats at the bar- only seats if you want to eat here, we had to squeeze in- literally shoulder to shoulder. Two Chefs and they prepare a set menu which is posted on the wall. As one prepares the next course, the other is serving and it is sort of just haphazardly placed and in one case tossed on your plate and it fell apart. Japanese cuisine is about presentation and respect for the food as much as it is about taste and there was nearly zero presentation - especially in the dark. Another issue was the cross contamination of using the same knife to slice beef and fish- definite no-no. Finally, when I requested the bill, they asked you to tip on the "value" of the meal we received as opposed to what we actually paid. - frankly outrageous. While some of the food was actually decent, it is not a true Omakase experience. It is more of a Sushi sampling. So in the end, it was pretty average food that was overpriced and they tricked us into over tipping. It is not something we want to repeat anytime soon.

Excellent Omakase. I came with no specific expectations and finished really happy. The quality is perfect. Lot of flavors. Service is exceeding expectations. Wine is good. Sushi Chef was nice and she was entertaining, Pricing is amazing at $60 for 12 sushis! Highly recommend

The PERFECT date night at Sushi by Bou . This Omakase experience was divine, the sushi was incredible, the drinks were perfection, and the vibe was exactly what we hoped for. The speakeasy-esq atmosphere was so fun and the service couldn't have been better. Everyone was attentive and the chefs were so interactive and easy to talk to. We had a lovely night and can't wait to check out some of their other locations.

Our experience was ruined by 2 couples being very loud and dominating the chefs. The food was good not great. Most of the bites (the courses are all one bite ) were nigiri. I was expecting more interesting courses. A few were exceptional the sea bass and scallop stood out. This experience was my birthday present and cost $378.00. Not at all worth it. If you are going to try it I would suggest the basic $65 omakase don't waste the money on the "bougie" experience. Disappointing birthday dinner.

This venue is tucked away in the beautiful Royal Palm Plaza. Parking can be challenging at times but the good news is that it's free! Several sushi s were had and i used my fingers to enjoy which i told was proper. The cocktails were so refreshing with interesting choices. I would definitely go back to this very cool venue .

While I thought that the sushi chefs were very talented and the food was delicious, it fell short of a luxury experience for me, especially for the price point. The cheap decorations, unorganized staff, and non-curated playlist distracted from the meal. The sushi was fresh and the cocktail I had, the Sake To Me, was delicious, but I did find the cocktail options rather uninventive and boring. The chefs are conversational but also respectful of a more private dining experience if you prefer that. Lastly, at the end of the 12 courses, our chef (as the others were doing too) offered to make us more of whatever we liked the most or something maybe we didn't get to try, and was quite insistent about it in a way that suggested to us it would be just a nice gesture since the restaurant was closing. We accepted his offer for an additional sushi each and we found that we were charged for it on our bill for $12 each, even though the rest of our party who had ordered through a different chef did not get charged. Compared to the rest of the meal, it was a paltry added cost, but we felt it was a bit dishonest. Overall, if you are planning to go for the fresh sushi and you don't care how much money you spend, this would be a great place for you! It would be a fantastic date night or place to bring a visiting friend. Just don't bring a party more than 2 or 3, because you won't be able to hear anyone outside of those immediately next to you.

Another one 1920's gatsby theme Such an amazing addition to the Boca area There's also outdoor seating besides a nice indoor lounge. The food and drinks are good as always like all our Bous Service always top notch

We had a great time, the sushi was fantastic and the atmosphere was akin to a speakeasy, almost like a hidden gem.

Sushi is consistently delicious and the ambience amazing. I just wish they would wear rubber some gloves when preparing the food.... It's not sanitary to handle food without gloves.

It's just fine; certainly disappointed as this was our second visit. For $100 pp I would expect a little bit more education on what I'm enjoying, and communication from the chefs, this second time the chefs seemed very detached from service and impacted the experience negatively. However our host and bartender were lovely. We always leave here hungry, unwilling to add on expensive a La carte options when our bill for 2 already came out to $400. 2 drinks each and the higher portioned omakase for both. Will try somewhere new for our next anniversary.

For my fiancé's birthday and to celebrate our engagement, I surprised him with a dinner at Sushi by Bou, hoping it would be a memorable omakase experience. Unfortunately, it fell short of expectations. Although you are signing up for an house, it felt very rushed, with other guests seated behind us, seemingly waiting for us to finish. Just as we were about to enjoy our last piece of sushi, the check was already placed in front of us, which really detracted from the experience. When I mentioned the birthday to the host, her response--"Okay, do you want me to sing?"--came off as incredibly rude and dismissive. With so many excellent restaurants in Boca Raton and Delray, I'd recommend trying somewhere else for a special occasion.

A unique, relaxed and delicious omakase experience right in downtown Boca. I loved the Gatsby ambience and personable staff! Good price point and excellent cocktails. Arrive early so you have time to unwind in the lounge. One heads up, their average experience time is 1 hr and 15 minutes, if you're used to a 3 hour omakase like I am, you'll feel rushed. It didn't take away from the quality of the food though!

I recently dined at this establishment and wanted to share my thoughts on the experience. While I appreciated the creativity of the 17-course menu, I found the overall quality to be mediocre. I've had many omakase's in my life and the experience should be relaxing but this felt very rushed and they were churning out sushi like conveyor belt style. There isn't time to appreciate the fish cutting skill of a sushi master. Additionally, I felt the service was lacking in hospitality. I had dined at the both the Philadelphia and NJ location before and staff were very hospitable. One staff member - a female lady in particular was not friendly, which made the experience feel more challenging than enjoyable. A warm and welcoming atmosphere is essential in any dining experience, and unfortunately, I did not feel that during my visit. It felt very touch and go. I hope this feedback helps in enhancing both the food and service quality at your restaurant

We had a great experience! The entire staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming and the sushi was delicious. We were able to try some new things we have never have been before.

I think after some time and trying it again I may raise this to a 5 star. But for now: amazing quality. The rice and the fish were perfect. Service was fine. Felt like the experience is missing another non nigiri plate, maybe a nice broth, maybe a small desert would make things more appealing for me.
