What People Are Saying About Boca

In Short – Along with the usual Northside rock-and-roll and arty types, you'll find families, couples, and others looking for a flavorful way to end their day. The menu sticks to mostly Italian fare, with some French dishes thrown in. The famous Boca Bloody Mary starts with a splash of a better-quality mix, then gets doctored up with extra Tabasco, olive brine and fresh ground pepper. It's served simply, and unusually, in a wine goblet, garnished only with a lime. – –

Great dining in Oakley

by gossmakr at Citysearch

The food is spectacular. I had pork shank, for the first time in my life, and it was amazing...fell right off the bone. Delicious risotto, tuna tartare, vino and more! It is a must try.

  • Pros: Can't go wrong with anything on the menu
  • Cons: Come with a wallet...

Phenomenal Service and Food

by tpellman at Citysearch

From the moment entering Boca with the dark wood floors, exposed brick, and eclectic array of music this restaurant feels like a comfortable house. The service was impeccable, the drinks were perfectly made, and the food was excellent. Everything from the roasted lemons and caesar salad to sea scallops and chicken were just delicious. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys great cooking, fun atmosphere, and attentive staff. Brilliant!

Trendy & Delicious

by snowrooster at Citysearch

Great restaurant! The food is fabulous and it's fun watching the chef flit about the restaurant during your meal. Small intimate feel with lovely open decor. Our server was top notch - recommended great wine to go with our meals and made other good suggestions as well. A great regular spot if you go out often and a great special occasion restaurant if you don't!!!

  • Pros: Inventive, Great Service, Festive Atmosphere

A Great Restaurant for Cincinnati

by chapmaly at Citysearch

Be careful what you read, some people are not accurately depicting this restaurant. First, it is not in Clifton, it is in Northside, one of the most vibrant, interesting and up and coming urban areas of Cincinnati. Perhaps if you need everything to be pretty and preppy you should stick to Hyde park and the suburbs. Ample parking in the lot behind the restaurant, not just on the street.

That being said, Boca has been one of my favorites for years, even before David Falk took over ownership. The menu is concise and always delicious. Each course is always beautifully prepared and presented. It's our "must do" every couple of months.

Its location is part of its charm. THank goodness CIncinnati has a fantastic restaurant in a funky part of town. I've had New Yorkers tell me it's like being in NYC, and they'd never dream they were in NY.

Extensive wine list: most are over $30 per bottle.Wines by the glass are $8 - $13. A six course menu with winepairing is $110 or $75 without the wine. The chef trained in Italy and the cuisine rivals the 4 and 5 star French restaraunts downtown. Excellent dining experience- the patrons are greeted by the chef as well. I highly recommend Boca for a fine dining experience!

  • Pros: $2 Parking-Plentiful, Eclectic, Artsy decor
