“ Innovative menu with plenty of comfortable classics as well. Refined but not stuffy, welcoming but elegant for special nights out. Exceptional service and lovely ambiance. This is such a treasure of a spot. Excellent steak and steakhouse sides. Smooth cocktails and truly inventive starters that are as exciting as they are delicious. Been wanting to visit this spot for ages and it did NOT disappoint. What a refreshing upscale dining experience! Loved everything our group tried, especially the carpaccio, drinks, raw fish, steak, and desserts. Obvious attention to detail given in everything. Delightfully inventive flavors, textures, and presentations. It’s clear that everyone here has a passion for good food. Small free parking lot plus street parking nearby. Reservations but flexibly for walk ins depending on how busy the spot is. Low top and high top seating. ”
“ Definitely a hidden gem in Boynton Beach. A small, quaint, upscale without the extra, corner restaurant on Ocean Ave. We normally love ordering sandwiches for lunch but decided to dine in for dinner. I almost felt like I was in Aspen for some reason. Mind you we dined in early January, Christmas lights were still up, and guests were roasting s’mores at the wood burning fireplace inside. The service was delightful and the menu was refined and delicious. My favorites included the special Duck Pasta, cuts of Beef, and Veal Parmesan. Overall loved it and can’t wait to return. Order the Espresso Martini- it includes Grappa, which was an awesome twist! ”
“ Place is unreal...owner knows what he’s doing here and makes some unreal steaks. He brought us out a special appetizer to us all and it was like nothing I’ve tasted before. I got the American Wagyu and it did not disappoint at all and my lovely wife loved her Amatriciana. The dessert was pretty good too I recommend getting the milk and cookies :) ”
“ As a Boynton beach local, I’ve never been to a restaurant like this in our area. It’s such a cozy, intimate, and inviting restaurant. The service is unmatched! They are attentive and very helpful. The food was phenomenal. We felt like it was a real dinner experience we haven’t had in a long time. So happy we found this gem! ”
“ Excellent way to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. Had steak, the summer menu and wonderful wine. I will certainly tell others to try it and I can’t wait to go back! Thank you to the staff as we celebrated with friends - we had a lot to catch up on and they were very patient! ”
“ If you’re looking for an absolute hidden gem in Boynton Beach, look no further than Nicholas Muir. This place is seriously slept on, and I can’t believe more people aren’t talking about it. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was inviting, and you could tell right away that this is a place where the chef truly cares about every dish that leaves the kitchen. I ordered the blue cheese crusted ribeye, and it was nothing short of phenomenal. Perfectly cooked to my preference, the steak was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. The blue cheese crust added a rich, tangy depth that complemented the meat beautifully. Easily one of the best ribeyes I’ve had in South Florida. My wife went with the filet mignon, and it was equally outstanding. Buttery soft, cooked to absolute perfection, and seasoned just right—she couldn’t stop raving about it. Every bite melted in her mouth. Beyond the incredible food, the service was top-notch. Attentive, knowledgeable, and passionate about the menu, the staff made the whole experience even better. Nicholas Muir is the kind of place that deserves way more recognition. If you appreciate high-quality, chef-driven cuisine in a laid-back but refined setting, this is the spot. We’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend. ”
“ This Michelin star restaurant was excellent. The perfect setting for an intimate dining experience and to celebrate our anniversary. Got the me-so-crispy starter which was the star of the show for us, the Japanese a5 wagyu that melts in your mouth, the ribeye which was decadent and cooked to perfection, also delicious were the truffle fries, and lastly the cookies and milk dessert. Highly recommend for a special occasion with your significant other! ”
“ The ambience it's so cozy and warm! It is truly a beautiful place, and not like most other restaurants in south Florida. The food was to die for. The menu is so unique and well thought out. The wine selection was amazing. And!!! They have free parking! A must check out! I loved my dinner here. ”
