I love small plates style because you get to try a lot of different flavors. Prepare to order a lot of dishes, and you might not leave full if you’re not prepared to spend. Food and atmosphere is worth it, but the service makes Boca stand out. Our waiter described the history of the location and menu, and provided great recommendations. I watched him curate when dishes came out and always made sure we had what we needed. Absolutely recommend this restaurant for any special occasion.
Great service, great variety, and excellent cocktails.
The most fun dishes were the halibut and leek for me. The leek was just a symphony of textures, flavors, and temperature shrprises. It was cold but was so soft, creamy but also very well seasoned and sweet at the same time. It was delightful.
The halibut was unexpectedly smoky and perfectly cooked. It stood on its own but with all the sauce and vegetables, mushrooms and puree under it, the dish had an amazing perfect bite when you put all of them together.
Overall, i would love to try them again for when the menu changes.
One of the best Ohio restaurants. Food and service are impeccable. Yeah it is definitely pricy, but consistently top notch. Portions are “normal” which might be on the small side for buffet frequenters.
We had a truly wonderful experience here. We went to celebrate a special occasion and it was more than we could have asked for. Our server, Doug was PHENOMENAL and his recommendations were spot on. The food was incredible! From the Pommes Soufflés to the Le Citron, each dish was better than the last. If you are looking for a one of a kind experience with exceptional service, incredible food, and an overall fantastic atmosphere- BOCA is a must. This was our first time dining there and it certainly will not be our last. This restaurant is absolutely worth it! It was one of the best experiences we have ever had at any restaurant.
Outstanding! We were able to get same day reservations on a Friday and it was easier to make them by calling the restaurant directly. Beef Wellington! Lobster roll! Yummm! Highly recommend this fine dining experience.
The star of the show was undeniably the Beef Wellington, and it did not disappoint. Visually stunning, the dish arrived perfectly encased in golden puff pastry, promising a succulent treat within.
The dining experience was elevated to new heights by the presence of a knowledgeable sommelier. Their expertise in wine pairing was truly impressive, and their passion for their craft was evident in every recommendation.
Completing this culinary masterpiece were the best Pomme Soufflés I have ever tasted. These delicate, puffed-up potato creations were crispy on the outside and cloud-like on the inside.
Small plate portions but were filling enough, most of the dishes good but they were heavier than I thought they would be.
Good food and amazing service.
Recommendation: Pommes Soufflés is a delight, imagine you are eating a crispy Churro, and it’s a little bit soft inside, and boom! It’s actually a potato!
Also the butter poached lobster is totally a Michelin worth course, the cappellacci with the pea filling are too good to be true.
I am writing this review 2 years after I dined here with my wife. It's had a lasting impression on what I consider good food. Both my wife and I were incredibly impressed with the service, atmosphere, experience, options, and of course the food. Now because it's been so long I don't recall the name of dishes, but I gathered some pictures of what we had. Trust me when I say you can not go wrong with anything at BOCA, and like me it will leave an impression big enough to last 2 years, and I'm sure more.
This is by far the #1 cuisine and dining experience in Cincinnati. Beats Ruby’s and anything by a mile. The service is out of a movie, perfect. The plating is art. The taste is outrageously delicious. Beef Wellington was phenomenal. Ask for Seth. He’s the best!
