New York Grilled Cheese Co. Comes to Boca Raton
The New York Grilled Cheese Co. (NYGC) recently opened their second South Florida location in the heart of Boca Raton. Taking the lead from its first location in Wilton Manors, the Boca location decided to stay open late on weekends to accommodate late night snacks for its patrons after the bars and nightclubs closed at 2 a.m.
Located across the street from busy Mizner Park, NYGC offers a variety of delicious tailor-made, gourmet grilled cheese melts. “We believe that the new late night hours [are] going to bring the younger crowd from clubs closing,” said Joshua Walker, Manager of NYGC.
One of the most popular melts is called The Meat Packing District. The sandwich features American cheese, zesty horseradish mixed with chive white cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, a house-made, slow cooked beef brisket and drizzled with Holey Aioli on a country loaf bread.
“The food is absolutely amazing,” said Kristen Rye, FAU junior. “It’s like gourmet grilled cheese and definitely not your mother’s grilled cheese.”
Another favorite melt is the Manhattan Grilled Mac and Cheese. This melt features mac and cheese on a country loaf grilled to perfection, sure to satisfy those late night cravings.
Every melt is served with house-made Tomato Basil Bisque, awakening childhood memories for many customers.
Along with the melts, they also feature waffle cut fries of four different varieties, including the most popular loaded fry called the Disco Fries or Poutine. Poutine is a dish which consists of beef gravy, white cheddar cheese curds and chives topped over fries. It is a delicious accompaniment to each and every sandwich.
Beverage choices include the Coca-Cola freestyle machine that offers a variety of Coke products and 36 craft beers. NYGC offers dining Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. until midnight and late night dining Friday through Saturday until 4 a.m. No reservations are needed.
“It’s great because you don’t need reservations,” said John Baez, FAU junior. “You usually get seated right away.”
