    What a fabulous dining experience at Boca. We had the zucchini fries, pork tacos and seafood linguine. All were thoughtfully prepared and delicious. Our bar servers Bryan and Ryan were attentive to our requests. Will come back again!

    The starter of Flatbread was very good however the French fries which came with a burger I ordered were overcooked and rubbery and tasted burnt. A fresh portion was provided and these were equally as bad. A very mixed meal to be honest
