   The food and the ambience were fantastic! We were with another couple and we all loved the food. It was an excellent meal and I would highly recommend Soca Kitchen at Beechwood to anyone interested in enjoying Spanish flavors in a small plates/sharing plates format.

   Nice dining room and menu, but very expensive coffees and certain plates, relatively to quantities of food served.

   Reasonable portions for one but tacos could be shared. No pushing to consume either cocktail or food rather offered discret assistance in choice of food. Tasty food!

    My husband and I went there Sunday afternoon for a drink and snacks. Unfortunately, there was a brunch menu that we were not up to eating BUT the server accommodated our wishes—just meat free snacks—and we received beautiful warmed spicy olives and fresh guacamole with corn chips. All were a very good with out well crafted cocktails. Will definitely visit this establishment again!

    The good - service was very friendly and attentive. The not so good - Patio does a very poor job of providing any shade past late afternoon and could use blinds. Flavous are fine, but ant dish that involved deep frying (of which there are a number on the menu were over-battered and over-fried resulting in a really dry texture. Moderate value for the service and ambiance.

    Food was delicious, as always. The Fried Yuca, Empanadas and Venezuelan Chicken Tacos were the stand-outs for sure, but the rest of our meal was pretty good also. The Carne Asada Tacos were slightly dry, but still tasty. The ambience was nice, and it was really quiet (which we liked, as it made us feel safer dining out). The service was friendly and generally fine, though I wished a few times that they were slightly more attentive. It would also have been nice if the servers were slightly more knowledgable about their menu items (for example, they weren't able to answer some basic questions we had about the fried plantain). I would definitely recommend the restaurant however, and though the food is on the pricier end compared to portion size, the taste makes it worth it. We will go again for sure!

    What a fabulous experience. The following were excellent: - cocktails - fusion mojito, cucumber margarita (salty, sweet and spicy) - tapas - Hamachi Crudo, Octopus Salpicon (expressive taste and texture) The rest was very good: - wines - Raimat white and rose (from Spain) - tapas - Fried fish of the day, which was authentic but not in the same league as the other food We will be back!!!

    Stopped by the Soca Kitchen for a mother's day brunch. Super beautiful interior and great food, although we ordered a few drinks that dampened the experience. I ordered an oat milk latté, which came in a regular size cup but was about half full. It was obvious by the markings on top it was made by a machine - that said I don't care who made it as long as it tastes good. Unfortunately the milk was split and curdled. I had let our server know and she didn't do much about it. My mother ordered a green tea, and when asked for a hot water top up she was denied. At the end of the meal I checked our bill to find that my latté was 8.50, and her green tea came out to 5.50. I'm not one to write reviews or really make a fuss so I paid and we went on our way. I do wish to see this restaurant do well as I really enjoyed their location on Holland and just want to provide this feedback, but to pay 8.50 for a curdled latté and 5.50 for a tea bag (and denied hot water) is just a bit ridic?!

    Booked at this location for Mother’s Day brunch. While the meals were OK I wasn’t completely wowed by the selection. I did see other food items on other tables so perhaps it was just our selections that weren’t the best. I also think some items were kind of pricey such as sourdough bread topped with Serrano ham and manchego cheese.

    I have been generally happy with the food and selection of wines. The fish tacos (3 tacos) are good. For starters, we ordered the pan con tomate and watercress salad, and shared the dishes, very good. Followed by the whole fish and a bottle of wine. With tip included the bill was about $200.00. We found the service to be a bit slower than we would have liked.

    Beechwood is a nice location and I like to store side also. Food was good but your wine list doesn't work. Poor selection and markup is very high (e.g. $67 for a Raimat Alberino which retails for 18$ is painful to pay (and to drink). When I dine at home or at a restaurant I am a (good) wine drinker. I had a beer with dinner :( If you want me to come back, you need a new wine list.

    Love the food at Soca but feel that it is a bit overpriced. $180 for 2 including tip. We would go more often if it were cheaper. The decor is nice but you will be sitting close to another table so definitely not for a private conversation.

    It got busy around 7:30pm and a large group made it quite noises, but otherwise quiet. The ambiance is really nice and the staff perfectly attentive. Good and drink PHENOMENAL!
