We see a licensing inspection for a new place coming to the Boca Grove plaza on Powerline south of Glades. We haven’t found out much about it yet. It’s reported name is Dhmas Boca Raton and the corporate owner is Kosher on Powerline LLC. It appears to be related to the Asia restaurant off Powerline at Camino Real. The outbuilding location was formerly the kosher House of Dogs and we think it was a burger place before that.

Yokohama Sushi in the Polo Club Shoppes (20 minor violations)
