DaVinci’s of Boca (Boca Raton)
***** DaVinci’s of Boca, 6000 Glades Road, Boca Raton, Florida 33431, (561) 362-8466.
First things first…
DaVinci’s of Boca is located in Town Center of Boca Raton- which is a regional mall. Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, this Italian joint couldn’t be in a worse location- no visibility from any road, no foot traffic to speak of…whatever real estate agent/mall representative “convinced”- or – “allowed” Davinci’s owners to open in this spot, should be ashamed of his/or herself and seriously consider taking a business ethics course at FAU!
Anyway,
Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats recently “did” dinner-and I gotta tell you that DaVinci’s which opened about a-year ago is a great looking “semi”- upscale Italian restaurant with both indoor/outdoor patio seating. In addition, the joint has a full bar area, private party room! On the food front- the calamari fritti, lasagna bolognese, chicken parmigiana, zuppa di pesce which we ordered, were real good!- The wait service was as professional/pleasant as could be. Just so there is no misunderstanding, DaVinci’s of Boca isn’t a “mom & pop” red sauce joint (soup or salad, garlic rolls, entrée with pasta side $14.99)- its prices aren’t bargain basement, but trust Jeff Eats- I’m thinking that-you won’t need a second job to pay the bill!…Oh! by the way, though DaVinci’s of Boca is semi-upscale, your tee shirt/shorts/flip flops ensemble works!
Let me wrap this up for you guys, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats-really enjoyed the food/service. The real story here- as crazy as it may seem…it pisses me off no end-when I see restaurant owners who obviously went for some heavy cash-to build a joint- who do a real nice job in serving up solid food/service- get “hoodwinked” into locations that stink!
Give DaVinci’s of Boca a shot…
The joint is open Monday-Thursday 11am-10pm, Friday-Saturday 11am-11pm, Sunday noon-10pm.

You hit the nail right on the head, a very good Italian restaurant located in a mall in an area where literally no one ever walks. The location sucks. I’ve eaten there twice and loved the food but I know and you know that this restaurant is destined for failure because no one even knows it exists.
My wife and I met friends for dinner a few months ago. It took me and my wife 15 minutes to find the restaurant after we parked the car. What an out of the way location. If Davinci’s was on Glades Road or any non mall location it would do huge business as the food is terrific based on where it is I can only see it limping along because it’s totally out of sight
