    I met a friend for lunch there. It was great. I was able to make a reservation. I'm not working right now, but my friend does work. I wanted a place where we'd not be stuck in a line to get food. We could sit, eat, and catch up. Bocanova provided that. The service was friendly and efficient. The food was great. It was well seasoned and didn't have too much salt. We shared the Brussels sprouts appetizer, and I got one of the lunch specials. It was an ahi tuna schnitzel, and was very good. My friend got some smaller dishes. I'm not exactly sure which ones, but she seemed to enjoy the food as much as I did. It's a great spot for a casual lunch in a great location. I'm glad that I chose it!
