What James Arvanitakis likes about Boffins:
Did not expect much but was pleasantly surprised: the service was friendly and the food was excellent... I really enjoyed the king fish... and the new beef entree was amazing. Situated in the old part of Australian National University, you really do get the feeling of being back in time. I enjoyed this place... thanks!!!! View all feedback.
