Really enjoyed hosting a business lunch at Soca. We were given a choice of tables which is important for private chats. The waiter was extremely helpful in guiding us through menu choices. We have ceviche and guacamole starters, the former better than the latter. Mains were delicious fish and beef tacos. I will return.

This is a nice space and a good neighbourhood spot. The service was extremely good, as were the cocktails. The food was a bit spotty - decent tacos, although I found the beef too stringy and salty and the fish, although nice enough, more deep-fried coating than fish. The patatas bravas were a disappointment—overly salted and dry. The ones I am used to are totally different. Very nice guacamole and the beets were also a hit. As was the coconut dessert: light cake with cool coconut filling and nice crunchy toasted coconut flakes on top. So, a mixed experience. I will return, as it's in my 'hood, but will try other things on the menu. There is a section of the restaurant given over to foodie gifts and take-out. It has some lovely things that would make wonderful hostess gifts or stocking stuffers.

I enjoyed the ceviche and while I knew it was not a warm dish, it was served quite cold and would have made a lovely summer patio meal. Perhaps the server could have said "just so you know, the ceviche is served quite cold"...I may have opted for something else, given the season. Also, for the reservation, you ask the occasion, but my having put "birthday" generated no reaction from your server/venue so I am not sure what the purpose is in asking? Otherwise, I will definitely return as it is a lovely dining experience.

A refreshing dining experience! So enjoyed the variety of fish on offer. The deep fried sea bass was excellent - moist and delicious. The haddock ceviche was marinated perfectly and also delicious. The appetizer of pan tomato & Sorrano on sour dough was a great starter with our wine.

The plantain sandwiches are FANTASTIC! I hate bananas and am generally biased against anything that looks like a a banana. These were pounded flat and fried to a crisp and basically used as a bun with a consistency somewhere between a thin bread and a French fry. Mine was the crispy haddock sandwich one but we had a pulled chicken at the table too. Also great. It was a busy day but the service seemed unnecessarily slow even for the small staff. It took a long time just to order a drink. It was worth the wait but patience was required.

Great food; great decor, great restaurant. Our only complaint (if any) is that the reservation system had us pay twice. Once to reserve and once at the end of the meal, which caused a lot of confusion. 2 for 28 lunch

Food was great and head server/owner/GM was excellent. Prices were expensive and the server was either inexperienced or not very good, and it felt as though we were being shuffled out from very near the beginning, though it wasn’t busy. I’ve never been before but my friend indicated this was not the first time to have this particular experience at Soca. Overall, to average things out over the evening, the whole experience was OK, but we will try somewhere else next time.

Seafood platters are what we tend to order often if available. This one was good.... I thought a bit too pricey for the quantities. I would go back again. Dessert was good too, yet, I would the the Churros seemed re-fried.

Honestly, the food was OK but not great and certainly not worth the $$, especially as it's food I could have made (and do make) myself at home. For 1 order of plain bread (which tasted deep fried for some bizarre reason), 1 small salad, a serving of empanadas (which my son described as a "very expensive corn dog, reheated from frozen"), one order of fish tacos (very fried; could hardly appreciate the fish), and one drink each, it was not worth at all the $120.00, considering it was mostly fried starch.
