About this restaurant

Great for creative cocktails
Neighbourhood gem
Great for outdoor dining

Simply put, BOA is unlike any other steakhouse. We reinvented the traditional American steakhouse to fashion a distinctly unique dining experience. That experience is bold, modern and innovative. From the seductively stylish interior to the dry-aged prime steaks, BOA’s vibrant ambiance is as alluring as the cuisine itself.

Our 16th First Blind Date Anniversary was amazing! This is where it all started. Our meal was amazing as always. The service was impeccable and the ambiance is stellar. We celebrate here every year and it’s always special. BOA has the best steaks, and their sides are fabulous…the Goat Cheese Baklava is a stand out. Thanks for another wonderful experience and memory created! ✨🎉🥂💕

This was our go-to spot for meals during this year's vacation—7 visits in 10 days! The food was exquisite; the Caesar salad was amazing. The steaks were cooked to perfection—tender and juicy. We’ll have fond memories of this place!

Celebrated our Mom’s 93rd birthday. Unbelievable steaks cooked to perfection. Leanne’s service was outstanding with constant attention to detail and a little humor which made our special evening very enjoyable. The Sunday 50% off wines by the bottle was a pleasant surprise. So much so, that we ordered 2 bottles! The best steak in Santa Monica. Will dine here again the next time we’re in Santa Monica.
