Chops Lobster Bar

101 Plaza Real
Boca Raton, FL 33432
561-395-2675
Website
Chops is divided, like all of Caesar’s Gaul, into three parts. There’s a spiffy mirrored bar room with marble floors, curvy, cherry-red banquettes, and a piano player. The main dining room is a warren of glam-mahogany nooks and crannies lighted by art-deco sconces, brilliantly accommodating the needs of mink-jacketed ladies to be seen, alongside their paramours’ natural desire for privacy. And then there’s the lobster bar, a sort of tongue-in-tail riff on Grand Central Station -- all barrel vaulted herringbone-tiled ceilings and views of the open kitchen. Many a May-December romance is conducted in the cuddly, semicircular booths, many an opening gambit played over tableside preparations of “classic steak tartare.” It’s market price on Maine and Australian lobster, whole Dover sole, Alaskan king, Florida stone crab, and iced oysters from both coasts. First-rate prime, bone-in, aged steaks – rib eye, porterhouse, filet mignon, and even American wagyu won’t fail to please any captain of industry. The menu here isn’t taking any risks, but the quality of meat and seafood is impeccable, with a wine and spirits list to match.
