The croquette was perfectly crunchy on the outside and smooth on the inside. It was a lot better than other croquettes I've had in Canada. The octopus was also really good, it was perfectly flavoured and the texture was not too chewy. The star of the show was the paella. The paella was super good, a little on the saltier side. The mussels were delicious, but it was a bit sandy inside, I felt it could be cleaned a bit better. Overall love this restaurant and would come back!

Bocado is a wonderful Spanish tapas restaurant in the heart of downtown Picton and Prince Edward…read moreCounty. I booked this place for my 12 year wedding anniversary. I recommend making a reservation to avoid disappointment. We were early for our reservation and the hostess was able to give us a table. There are 2 dining rooms with different themes. The front room has a beautiful bar beside the open air kitchen. The dining area has a nice bright rustic ambiance. Definitely, a great place for date night. The rear dining room has a lounge feel. The light is dimmed and tables have candlelights. There's nice lounge music playing here as well. Now for the food. The menu is divided into 3 sections: Tapas del bar - small dishes to share and sample some curated Spanish delicacies. Grande provides a selection of main course entrees. Paella is a Valencian rice dish that is great for sharing and served on a large cast iron skillet. We ordered the jamon croquetas. The croquetas were served with pickles and garlic aioli. They are delicate and packed with flavor. The second tapas we ordered was the Albacore tuna served with bulgur cracker. The dish was esthetically pleasing and we really enjoying the green liquid sauce. Very impressive dish. For our main we decided to share the seafood paella which consisted of Argentina red shrimps, organic salmon, and mussels. The rice was flavorful and we love the crispy rice on the bottom of the skillet. This dish checked all the boxes in flavor, presentation, and texture. We finished our meal with the grand finale: Spanish Churro. This is not your regular churro. This was shaped like a cinamon bun and you have two delightful dipping sauces - dolce de leche and dark chocolate. This was by far the best churro I've ever had. Overall, the experience was exceptional and I recommend this place if yoi are looking to try some elevated Spanish cuisine. The server was attentive and provided advice on how to eat each dish. The prices are on the higher-end so plan on spending about $50-$75 per person.

Also we saw people seating inside when we left, would have appreciated if we were given a choice.

We don't drink, so no comments on the amazing looking drinks menu; the food tho was just delicious. The menu changes according to what is available - such is the nature of farm to table - but the server says pork and fish are often on the menu. We had roasted beets, shishito peppers, stuffed squash flowers, pickerel, and pork belly. We were happily stuffed as we enjoyed every bite!! The server said they do Sunday brunch and we hope to try that before we leave. There's outdoor seating but we sat inside as it was a cold September night. I highly recommend (open for dinner, and Sunday brunch)

They have a menu that rotates daily and is available to be viewed ahead of time online (it's on a chalkboard in the resto). Service was excellent and the portions were explained to us and how the ordering is typically done (medium plates, meant to share with 2-3 dishes per person). The food was really well done especially with the seasonal/daily offerings. The duck liver mousse was the favourite at the table served with thin bread. The mousse was smooth with good duck liver flavour and a nice sweet balanced with the pickled onions. The duck leg confit was well cooked and very tender with good seasoning. The pork belly and mussels were good, but not so much a highlight in comparison. Ended the dinner off with the Chamomile creme brulee which was also excellent.

On arrival it was a low key restaurant, easily a casual place to just hit up after the beach or like us, after a wine tour. The staff was very welcoming and friendly from beginning to end. So what turned into a snack before dinner became a full on dinner with not just oysters but Fish N Chips, Shrimp cocktail and lobster baos and I don't regret it one bit. The Fish N Chips was amazing with the most light and crunchy battered fish, not too battered and fresh. The fries were probably my favourite being fresh cut, hot, crispy but fluffy on the inside. We loved the coleslaw so much, we ordered another side order of that as well. I personally don't like oysters but my friends destroyed them and had to control themselves from getting more. The shrimp cocktail and lobster baos were also very fresh and different but weren't the star in my books. Though unplanned, our visit to Sand and Pearl turned into a major win and I will definitely be back the next time I'm in the area!
