About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Fancy
  • Romantic
Boca is Chef David Falk's ode to Europe. It is a one of a kind dining experience marrying world-class, chef driven cuisine with gracious service. Boca's design couples contemporary European and American stylings with touches of rusticity in an airy urban space. The elegant and inviting surroundings welcome guests for an afternoon cocktail, a small bite before a great show at nearby theaters, a casual dinner with friends, or a luxurious night out.

    Excellent food and outstanding service. It’s pricey, but you get what you pay for. We had about half the dishes on the menu at our table and none of them disappointed. The scallops with Brussels sprouts were a favorite along with the vegetarian risotto. Definitely will be back

    Excellent food and service. We had 3 people in casual business setting and basically ordered 3 items from each of the groups and shared (3 small plates, 3 pastas, 3 proteins). This worked out great as we all got to sample each of the plates in a large enough portion. May not have worked as well with more than 3.

    We enjoyed a delicious and elegant meal with top notch service. The attentive and knowledgeable staff created a wonderful and memorable experience. The portions were just right (although the flavors made you want for more!) and the presentation was excellent.

    Boca was stunning, food and service were amazing and we had our own room. I had to change the number of attendees a few times on our reservation, and Boca was accommodating and worked with me to make sure the meal was a treat for all! 10 out of 10!

    Boca never disappoints. It has the best food in Cincinnati for experienced palates. It is the perfect restaurant to follow in the Maisonettes’s shoes. Well done.
    BOCAResponded 3 days ago
    Hi Scott, thank you for your wonderful review! That is a huge compliment. The Maisonette was iconic and we work hard every day to uphold the gold standard. Your kind words are truly appreciated and we look forward to welcoming you back to BOCA soon. Thank you for your support. Best, The BOCA Management Team

    We had dinner 4/25/2025. The service and ambience were great. The food however was not quite up to par. It was well balanced and seasoned but lacked the wow factor. It is on the level of a first year chef. Also portions are very small. My suggestion is to offer a multi course tasting menu. This would make more sense with these offerings.
    BOCAResponded 4 days ago
    Hey Anthony, We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your experience at BOCA. It's great to know that our service and ambiance met your expectations. We also appreciate your feedback regarding our portion sizes. We actually do offer a tasting menu with or without wine pairings. It's a little secret that we have up our sleeve. The next time that you dine, ask your server and we would love to do a tasting menu for you. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We hope to serve you again soon. Best regards, The Management Team

    We enjoyed a wonderful dinner with another couple. The food and service were wonderful. The wine was very expensive resulting in a $500 bill for four. A very pleasant place for entertaining. Would have enjoyed the meal more at $400.

    The food was, as always, impeccable! The service, while adequate, was nit up to the high standards I expect at Boca.

    Hello Mary Jo, Thank you for your continued support and for taking the time to share your experience at BOCA. We're thrilled to hear that you've enjoyed our food again. We strive to provide an impeccable dining experience, and it's clear we fell short this time. Sorry to hear that. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration as we continuously work to improve. Heather and David Matern are both wonderful team members. We are very lucky to have them. Nicole was sorry that she missed you last night but hopefully she will see you next time. Once again, we appreciate any and all feedback. Thank you for taking the time to write this review. Best regards, The BOCA Management Team
