Reviews for Boca in Hickory, NC
Perfect for any occasion. Our group decided to taste most on the menu, so we ordered in the "Tapas." section, not on the big... plate. We then shared each other's order; it was a great mouth-watering experience. Most of what we had, but one didn't passour taste buds; too heavily salted pork loin. But for all the rest, including the desert, the service was next to none; therewas even live music by the bar. You'll love it here, and you should come next time! Read more
First time, last time! The venue at Boca is rather nice, however that is the only thing we enjoyed about our experience. While... the service was fine, it was nothing to rave about. The food was average at best and very expensive for average. All thedishes we tried were very bland and the cocktails were not enjoyable at all. I am always very disappointed when I spend thiskind of money to go out for good meal and leave knowing that everything from the steak to the cocktails would have been betterif I made them myself at home. Lastly, do not take young children here as they have absolutely no options on the menu for kids. Read more
Excellent food, selection, service, and ambiance. Shout out to Jimmy & Tony for always being great. The roasted cauliflower has... a great texture and warm spicy flavor, and the halibut is seared to perfection. Highly rec. the stuffed piquillos and thewhippped ricotta. We very much enjoyed the decadent flavors of the limoncello cake, creme brulee, & salted caramel cheesecake. Read more
We will definitely be returning! We visited tonight on the recommendation of a friend and they did not steer us wrong. Tonight... we ordered solely from the tapas menu. We enjoyed the pub chips with blue cheese fondue, Naan bread with three types of dip,Sicilian style cauliflower and the shrimp tacos. All were delicious, but the ones that we loved the most were the cauliflowerand the tacos! The normal order for the tacos is three but since there were two of us, we added an additional taco for anadditional charge of $4, but totally worth it! We are already planning our next visit and are so excited to return. Jose was ourserver tonight and was attentive without being overbearing. He did a great job and helped us make decisions regarding our meal.We look forward to our next visit! Read more
Great food and ambience. We tried the Morrocan Chicken Tagine and Beef Kebab with a side of rissotto. Kebab was so far my best... experience, juicy and cooked to perfection, that we ordered twice. Will definitely come back. Read more

This place has awesome food and great drinks. We had our Christmas party here but I will definitely be visiting with my fiance
Gorgeous interior, with an atmosphere that is a whole vibe! ???? Seated promptly without a res. Greeted by an amazing server and... drink orders taken quickly. We were able to try cocktails, beer, and they're macchiato...I highly recommend their lavenderlemonade cocktail, as well as they're macchiato. They could expand their craft beer options; they had plenty of IPA options butonly two amber/dark beer options. We did the Naan for an app. Outstanding naan and baba ganoush, but I think the chef forgot toseason the hummus and tzatziki. The food was on another level y'all! ???? We had their special, which was duck over brussels,and the brussels were over butternut. This dish was served with the BEST cranberry compote and some sort of mustard dip that wasmehhh. The halibut was a total win as well, as were the kabobs. ?However? our desserts were a larger portion than our entree.And I totally get the whole bougie restaurant serves tiny portion vibe, but I'll never understand it. You will be paying $20,$30, or even $40 for an entree that you could fit in the palm of your hand. ???? Speaking of dessert: the pecan pie thingy wassuper crusty and dry, so we didn't finish that, but the cheesecake was perfection! Read more
