When was some friends to watch the Dominican baseball playoff the atmosphere the environment was intense. Loved it. The food is always good. I've never complained about their food that I remember. The service was good. It was it was busy so I understood why the server wasn't able to come all the time will be around, but it was a good time. It was a good time again happy hour. There is good. The drinks were OK could've been a little stronger, but it was fine overall good place for happy hour and for brunch I've done their brunch before. read more

The service is good and the ambiance is cool but they need to play other music than spanish.Spanish. Good times and good vibes!!!! read more

I came here for Easter and this is my second time coming here for Easter & everything went well, than came the bill. They make you put a $50 dollar deposit and they do not deducted it from your receipt. If nobody has been paying attention to their bills start paying attention they rob you from your deposit when they suppose to give it back to you. I am not coming here again respectfully. They have been wasting my time to come into the restaurant and speak with a manager when she is not here. I have been speaking with a worker & she has been nothing but very helpful, but at the end of they day my time was still wasted cause they doing to much & playing to much to give me my money. Boca is cool and all until it comes to the bill & them robbing you off that money. Disgusting. Will never come back here ever again. read more

Went to Boca 1/16/26 to celebrate my husbands birthday we bought over 24 bottles and the service was ok. Went back on 2/21/26 to celebrate my sisters birthday. Did reservations with Liz and was informed because of a large group and I wanted to sit in the section we were in January 16 would be available. She informed me sure that if it would be an issue she would let me know. When we get there we are told for dinner the group would have to sit somewhere else and then when it's turned into lounge we can go to the VIP section. No problem on our end that's fine. Yeah right when we are seated in the vio section we were informed is a 3 bottle minimum I asked the prices I was told 150 regular bottle and 175 premium. Then the night manager Evelyn comes to tell me all of a sudden bottle prices changed and to sit where we were it a $1000-2,000 minimum. What? So I proceed to explain and she tells me you were given wrong information I'm sorry but this is what it is. Nah I told her you want to make your night with this group because of the amount we spent last time and that's not happening. That your staff and peers gave false advertisement when I made reservations is not on me it's on them and how they manage. Point is no one wanted to take accountability especially her when she was sitting right there when her staff gave me the bottle prices and as a manager she did not correct her and looked the other way. I will never return there and all or my friends that came out of town have also spread the word. As how unprofessional they have been. So sad. Disappointed in trying to support business I. The neighborhood and this is how they treat paying customers. Don't waste your money and go there. There's better places in the BX to hang out and more hospitable staff. read more

This spot is good. I love it. Came twice once on a Friday and today for brunch. The ambiance and service is good. Today the brunch was lit. Get here early and make a reservation so you don't have to wait. Below are pics of what I ordered. For the brunch they have the pre fix menu for $39 which is great. It's two hours of unlimited mimosas or rum punch. My table picked the rum punch it was so good. One of them dangerous drinks lol taste like juice. The menu options are really good for the price. Hookah is $40 cash Refill is $20 cash. The service was also awesome. I am a big believer in great service and this spot has it. They kept making sure we were ok, making sure we didn't need anything! I loved it read more

I was denied a table with an open table reservation. Why? I don't know you would have to ask the hostess. I will never revisit because the prejudice was obvious. This was in February 23rd,2020 for brunch at 430. I considered going here only because of the good reviews but if you enjoy to be treated fairly pick a different THE HEALTH SCORE SAYS IT ALL. And to have the audacity to be PREJUDICE ! SHUT IT DOWN ! read more

I been waiting for my drinks for 1 hour is happy hour i supposed to be happy not mad. Waitress took a while to get me a drink.

Im going to make another review since my review was taken off and flagged. I was attending a Birthday party for my sister in law immediately the female bouncer was very aggressive and inappropriate when checking me to get in the establishment. I felt very uncomfortable she was very rough and to personal. Purchasing a drink at the bar the refused to let us pay with a card unless we left a tab open so we paid in cash because we didn't trust the establishment to leave the card but I can use a credit card to buy bottles. I say that because our party paid With a card. They're doing unfair business practice. By choosing when to accept your card or deny because they feel the transaction to low. I didn't attend for brunch , dinner or lunch I attended for the lounge so my experience is for just that. The area becomes very congested when it's turns over to a lounge. The high top tables are right on top of each other. So it's hard to really enjoy yourself when your constantly being bumped or asked to move to the side. The service is horrible because your constantly looking for someone to attend the bottle service ( ice,cups, extra soda ,juice) so even when your spending a lot of money your begging for service. It's just not my type establishment and will not recommend! read more

Made a reservation for 3:30 and had to wait until 3:58 to be seated at the tiniest table I've ever seen for 3 grown adults who were expecting hookah, drinks, and food! My exceedingly patient party of 3 had to ask for drinks and a menu multiple times. The staff was kind and accommodating but the service was still lackluster. The food definitely made up for everything else--the chips and guac were fresh, the mangu was creamy and delicious, and the mimosas were bright and crisp. The live entertainment and DJ kept the mood upbeat, and overall it was a good experience. read more

My friend and I decided to go out (last minute) and I came across this little spot, which has hookah! Price: It was very affordable! The starter hookah cost $40, and refills are $20. We both ordered margaritas (mango and passion fruit) which were $14 each. I'm NOT a drinker, but the drinks were really good (didn't taste the patron). We ordered appetizers (see below) which totaled the bill to about $40pp. Food: We decided to share the Fried Calamari, Shrimp Tacos, and Crab cakes. The calamari could've had more seasoning, and a little more crisp, but I liked the sauces that came with is. However, we tore up them baby crab cakes. There were two (inch in size) crab cakes stacked on top one another. The sauce that it came in had a slight sweetness, but it was still yummy. As for the shrimp tacos (three mini tacos), they were good. Service/Environment: The service was good! Nothing spectacular, but I will say .... I definitely felt welcomed and our waitress was pleasant and attentive! Now, if you don't know by now....... This is a Spanish restaurant/lounge. In other words, be prepared to listen to Spanish musicccc. Overall it was a cute vibe! The girl at the table adjacent to me was celebrating her birthday , so it is definitely that type of environment. Would we come back? Yes! I definitely enjoyed myself. read more

Stopped by for take out. Order tacos and Mofongo and margaritas. The Mofongo was just ok and the tacos lacked. The margaritas were extremely disappointing. They were not made with tequila ! Yes I understand it's not a Mexican spot but seriously no tequila and replaced with rum. It should be illegal passing off a margarita with rum and strawberry juice l. Not bueno at alllll. Don't come here if you want a good drink or traditional Spanish food flavor. read more

I am from out of town, and my family and I were looking for a casual hookah bar to relax for a bit. Before we even got in, they wanted to charge us for a ridiculous cover charge per person and were charging substantially more for males than female . As we turned to leave they offered to charge us only 30 per person which leads me to believe that they could've charged that before but wanted to overcharge us just because. I do not recommend this place at all. read more

I came ready to eat and BOCA had exactly what I want! The happy hour is amazing and Marylyn was so great to us and make sure we was great always! Definitely come after a long week of work! read more

I've been to Boca on 116 and 1st Avenue and had a horrible experience but wanted to try the one on Webster avenue and unfortunately it was a horrible experience as well. We said we weren't ordering drinks and that seemed to be where the waitress lost interest. We went early enough where it wasn't busy but the wait was still long. The food is good but the service isn't worth it at all. The waitress took our appetizer order and forgot to come back. One of the guys in the floor took our order after us looking around and staring for 20 minutes. The runners brought our drinks to the table but held them until we grabbed the cups ourselves. We ordered soda and the sodas were flat. Food is great but our waitress attitude sucked. Wont be back and letting everyone know about my experience at BOTH SPOTS read more

Mariel gave us great service ! Great ambience and she was very polite and friendly to our party and I couldn't ask for a better waitress

I love this place. I came here on different occasions. If you're looking for a fun place to have brunch this is it! They give out balloons and the music is great. I also came on a Friday night for happy hour. The MC was so engaging. They had dance competitions and different group competitions it was amazing! The food is okay. The drink portions are great during happy hour. If you have a group of friends and are looking to have a good time this is the place for you. read more

I wouldn't even look twice at Boca again smh. 1 .we asked for 2 cups of water because we have a hookah and we were waiting for food and drinks (the drinks took 20 minutes after ordering). Was told we needed to buy bottles of water because it was " illegal " to serve us water in a cup but they serve the alcohol beverages in the SAME open top plastic cup ??? Confused. 2. We ordered food that took 55 minutes to come . The guacamole was so bland & asked for lemons for my crab cakes 3 times, by the time I got it the sauce around my crab cakes was cold and unappetizing. Ordered steak tacos , never received them. Had to just cancel it since Everything took so long . I was no longer enjoying myself didn't want to stay any longer. read more

I was so disappointed with the service, after traveling 2 hours from Philadelphia I have to say that I'm not going back... Se spent $439 of drinks and food can't believe they refused to service us because our 2 hour time limit was up. This place sucks. read more

It's my first time coming her and upon entry it looks like a nice place to attend brunch but... the place is an ice box. We have two reservations going one for a large party and one for a smaller party and the seating arrangement s bad so many complications it was honestly ridiculous. When trying to place an order it was so hard to flag down a waitress. They instead were sitting in the stairs taking pictures. In addition to the seating arrangements the food brought out either didn't belong to either party and was also cold. I'm not sure if it's because of the holiday that they are all over the place but I'm not sure if I'd come back here. PS... food taste good but the drinks are a tad watered down. read more

We had reservations for brunch on Sunday for 1:30pm for 4 people. Unfortunately, the manager decided to have a staff meeting for more than 30 minutes. We never were acknowledged, never sat down. It was very unprofessional and a bit dysfunctional. Why have a staff meeting in the middle of service and in the middle of the restaurant. I will never return. We left! No stars!! read more

Highly disappointed in this RACIST facility. I've felt very uncomfortable trying to eat here. Not only were they turning away black individuals or those who weren't Spanish, they have a health score of 22 out of 100. How is this facility even open?!! They were trying to squeeze individuals next to each other, not taking social distancing into consideration. However, when I arrived at the time of my confirmed reservation they denied me service as they 'didn't have anymore seats.' I proceeded to stand next to this vermin-filled facility that I was denied at, & watched two different groups of individuals walk in and receive service immediately. PLEASE DO NOT EAT HERE! During this time where minorities and individuals in general should stick together, we should support each other with love and acceptance no matter the race. Anyway, I took myself to a BLACK-OWNED facility in Harlem, called HARLEM RENAISSANCE. They had amazing service. Nothing close to what would have conspired at Boca. I HIGHLY recommend HARLEM RENAISSANCE. That is all! read more

I've been to Boca Restaurant and Lounge about 3 times - Once for Happy Hour and Twice for Brunch and dare I say, their brunch battles any party brunch out there. When I went for Happy Hour, they had a great selection of drinks and good on the menu. I had the Passion Fruit Margarita, which was good but nothing I'd order again. My husband ordered the Red Sangria which was great. We also had Buffalo wings and a Quesadilla, both were good. Now for Brunch - I've had the mimosas and the red sangria and they are very good, add in the fact that both times I've gone to their brunch, I was definitely drunk lol You get a choice of an appetizer and a main course. For appetizer, I got the buffalo wings and the main course, the steak and eggs with rice and beans and it was just FANTASTIC. My husband order the pasta and he raved about it and I definitely agree with him. Overall: The ambiance is great, the service is good and the food is tasty. I'll definitely be back read more

I have visited this place several times and all I have to say is do not order any steak here. The last 2 times I visited this restaurant I asked for medium rare steak and both times my steak was over cooked, hard as a rock. When the waitress came and order me another steak yesterday the brought me a completely raw uncooked steak. Now I don't know if the chef was having a bad day but I was definitely nice about the whole situation and not mean at all. Beside waiting 2 hours for my meal. The manager came and very dry and unsympathetic said sorry and took the steak. The waitress was extremely apologetic and nice but I ended up paying the bill and leaving without eating because sitting outside was too cold to keep on waiting for another plate of food. I wish I could have taken a picture but it was so cold and sitting for so long waiting for my food that I just wanted to leave. read more

Emilio gave an awesome service, no complaints,

Worst experience ever at this lounge! I celebrated my 22nd birthday here on a Saturday. I was in frequent contact with a person ahead of time , paying a deposit to secure our "lounge area."The worker also said i could bring cake... when i got there the people at the front entrance kept changing the entry fee every 15 minutes. So it literally went from free -$50 in 1 hour when i was told no entry fee. On top of that the workers / security guards were EXTREMELY rude. They had no plates or utensils for my cake so i brought it for no reason... The bottle package i purchased additionally came with a 2 seat couch and 1 table as our "lounge area." Customer service in general and communication was off. I would not come here again. read more

I can here on a Sunday Brunch Party around 3 PM, we got there and we had two get our coats checked ($5 Per Coat) which was OK but I saw people in the place with coats and jackets on so I was confused. It was super packed and the music was super loud, for example, I could barely hear the coat check girl and she was right next to the door. We went to the second floor to meet our party, the second floor is really small and narrow but they packed it with least 4 tables in there so you were just bumping into people and if you are sitting down and aren't sitting next to the wall you're not getting up. We finally get seated and let me tell you.....Service is horrendous, Sloths move faster. The drinks weren't that great, the rum punch (passion fruit flavor) was way too sweet and nasty, the mimosa tasted like pretty much OJ, and the refills came sporadically, for the two-hour brunch special we got probably 3-4 refills. The Hookah was nothing special, Low-grade Al Fakher shisha with plastic hoses with the handles melted off or cracked, and they give you like 2 hookah tips, it was a party of 8+ what am I suppose to do with 2 hookah tips. The seating upstairs had burn holes in them also. We ordered appetizers and the main course, let me tell you the apps came out around 4:40ish and the main course came out around 5:30, mind you, our brunch started at 3 pm. The food was lackluster, the chicken and waffles were more like chicken nuggets and waffles. And we didn't have any utensils on your table, we had to downstairs and find a staff member and ask them. The music was mainly Spanish but then again it's a Spanish lounge, but they did throw in some hip-hop. (the only reason they getting two stars) Overall it was an a-OK experience, but let's be honest; you're coming to a Spanish club in the Bronx, what you expected. read more

I have came here numerous times and the service just keeps getting worse everytime I go. This place is convenient since it's close to home and has a good happy hour but it truly has horrible service. I repeatedly had to wave down the waitress. She was sitting at another table smoking hookah and seemed to forgotten we were there. Asking for the check was another hassle since she was too busy talking to friends. When I ask for the manager shes at the bar smoking hookah as well. I get the tip is included in the bill so they tend not to work as hard but it's really getting out of hand. They really need to fix their service if they want customers to return. read more

IF I COULD GIVE THIS PLACE 0 STARS I WOULD!! Horrible experience. When we called to inquire we were told we had to make a deposit, since our party was big they asked us to make a deposit of 150. Which we made on Wednesday confirming our Sunday 2pm reservation. We get to Boca today at 2pm and we were Informed that the reservations had been changed to 3pm. NO ONE MADE THE EFFORT TO CALL US AHEAD OF TIME TO INFORM US OF THE TIME CHANGE. After waiting outside for 1 hours we were finally let in and they were not even ready for the our party. They wanted to separate our party but WE WERE NOT WITH IT. After an hour of going back and forth with them about getting us enough seats for our party. They finally moved us upstairs, we Were given drinks BUT WAITED OVER 2 HOURS FOR FOOD TO COME, SADLY WE NEVER GOT THE FOOD. HUGE WASTE OF TIME! read more

Worst experience ever. I used to go to this place back when it was called Casa De Mofongo. The new management truly won't last long. I went there on a Saturday with some friends and I promise I will never comeback. First, the waitress that we had seemed overwhelmed and uncaring about our experience. I quickly noticed the manager pulling her & treating her like a child. It took the hookah guy 30 whole minutes yo bring us the hookah we asked for. When we tried to ask for a coal, since the flavor was still good he tried to charge us for a whole new refill. We asked the manager if this was true and she said yes So we brought another refill. Then the food was terrible. The wings weren't crispy at all, the pastelitos were like the ones you fry at home with a lot of oil. The quesadilla was Cold inside. Then to top it all off, the manager EVELYN was so rude and disrespectful. As we left, she asked us if we were able to resolve the hookah issue, we told her no but thanks for being concerned. I will mention you on Yelp. As I walked out the door she started screaming and saying "i don't care if you put me on Yelp, you want my last name. What will they do fire me?" She created this whole big scene that was quite embarrassing. I advise you don't go to this place. They treat you bad and the food terrible. read more

Appertizers and drinks was OK ! The passion fruit margarita was a bit soar . Music was playing from someone playlist that didnt notice the same song played 5x times back to back Happy hour all night on TUESDAY! Bathroom-Unisex read more

I did my birthday brunch in this establishment and the service was unpleasant and distasteful. since the start of my brunch, there was confusion amongst the staff. I was informed that to keep our table after a 2-hours brunch we would need to order bottles and so we purchased 2 bottles of Hennessey along with a hookah. we were also short of an appetizer and I had to ask 3 times. Fast forward to late evening and our waitress, Diana instructed servers to clear the table. This of course happened soon after the bill was paid. It was exhausting to try and speak to staff members so we ended up leaving. They also charged us $40 for 2 pitchers of passion fruit which by the way, I did not ask for. I requested a small cup of passion fruit along with one of the bottles of Hennessey. Shame on you BOCA RESTAURANT as your action proved that your sole focus is to make money. Stay tuned for more bad reviews - my party was dissatisfied. read more
