"BOA is a fancy Downtown steakhouse that should be near the top of your list if your boss is treating or you’ve recently come into an inheritance. This is the type of place to get dressed up for—the dining room is large and sleek, but just dark enough that nobody will notice if you spill a little chimichurri on your freshly pressed pants—and it doesn’t feel old-fashioned or stuffy. Lush, tropical plants liven up the interior and provide an appropriate backdrop to a soundtrack that’s probably playing Tame Impala. Start with fluffy Parker House rolls and the goat-cheese baklava, then order one of the dry-aged steaks and some Chilean sea bass. But skip the “boujee” twice-baked potato unless you’re a massive tuber enthusiast with a $42 hole in your pocket. photo credit: BOA Steakhouse" - Nicolai McCrary
