    Pretty good place in Bocagrande. Fancy and the server was very good with helping us with the menu since we don't speak Spanish. My fish was slightly tough in one part but everything else was great. The calamari, which is hard to see in the picture has a coconut batter, and the coconut rice was the best we had on the trip.

    Popped in here for a quick bite to eat and was very pleasantly satisfied! Excellent fried fish and coconut rice (chicaron de pescado), as well as the chorizo a la plancha appetizer was amazing. Paired with a fresh jugo de maracuyà and water and we were in heaven.

    We had dinner last night in Boka restaurant, the food was absolutely tasting and fresh. The service is excellent. We found this restaurant as the best one in Boca Grande making a big difference.

    (Translated by Google) The site is very pleasant, elegant and good service. I did not like the food almost as I ordered seafood barbecue and it was very burnt. They do not offer any courtesy products such as: muffins while you wait for your order. (Original) El sitio es muy ameno, elegante y buen servicio. La comida no me gustó casi ya que pedí parrillada de mariscos y estaba muy quemada. No ofrecen ningun producto de cortesía como por ejemplo: pancitos mientras uno espera su pedido.

    (Translated by Google) My husband and some friends had recommended this restaurant. I had come to Cartagena a few months ago and it was closed. They told us they would re-open it and it would be much better. I looked forward to this moment. I had been told that the T-bone steak and the chocolate volcano (its flagship dishes) were going to be the best! Unfortunately, as soon as we asked for those dishes, they told us they were no longer on the menu. The same and we decided to give it a try. We ordered a shoulder and a seafood stew rice. The good but accompanying shoulder had a polenta that was quite sandy. The rich rice without being anything spectacular. The most disappointing were the desserts. Very sweet, cloying. The meringue was raw and tasted a lot like egg white. I think they should go back to their roots. It is still time to change some menu items, including desserts. (Original) Mi esposo y algunos amigos me habían recomendado este restaurante. Había venido a Cartagena hace unos meses y estaba cerrado. Nos dijeron que lo re-inagurarían y sería mucho mejor. Esperé con ansias este momento. Me habían dicho que el chuletón y el volcán de chocolate (sus platos insignia) iban a ser lo máximo! Infortunadamente, tan pronto preguntamos por esos platos, nos dijeron que ya no estaban en el menú. Igual y decidimos darle una oportunidad. Pedimos una paletilla y un arroz caldoso de mariscos. La paletilla buena pero de acompañamiento tenía una polenta que estaba bastante arenosa. El arroz rico sin ser nada espectacular. Lo más decepcionante fueron los postres. Muy dulces, empalagosos. El merengue estaba crudo y sabía mucho a clara de huevo. Creo que deben volver a sus raíces. Todavía es tiempo de cambiar algunas cosas del menú, incluyendo los postres.

    The olive octopus, grilled sea bass and pork Paletilla were good. I had an additional Torta de Chocolo but it came burnt and charred. It was totally different from the Paletilla, which was really good. The waiter apologizes.

    Awesome place, really nice ambiance. Reasonable prices and food was delicious. Staff was really nice. We are from Canada and converted prices into the canadian dollar and the plates were about 20$ . Can't beat that.. thanks for the great meal and great service! 😊 also the house red wine isn't too bad at all !

    This restaurant kitchen boasts an incredible selections of dishes, but in reality only a few are cooked here; every thing else is cooked in satellite kitchens nearby and delivered to your table. We move over.

    One of the best restaurant I ever went to. The food was OUT OF THIS WORLD! Insanely good, for real. Unique and delicious cocktails. Everything was perfect! Totally worth the money. I highlyyyyy recommend 🔥

  • 4/5 David Contreras (. 10 months ago on Google • 13 reviews
    Loves the place, the ambient and service was top tier. The entries were good too from the Boka menu. Pollo cremoso is a pasta dish with chicken, doesn't come across as a chicken dish as the premise promised. Cubes of chicken are difficult to eat alongside the pasta. Very good flavours overall. Ceviche was perfectly balanced. Very ballsy entries overall .

    First of all I visited this place around March 17 2022, at night, their plates are good, but I order a seafood salad and it was supposed have lobster meat, unfortunately it was not , believed me I travel very often and I know that better, however everything else was ok and acceptable to my taste, Edgar attention was very very good, exelente service, but I think that theirs food have improvement to make, the reason of my 4 star is because the vibes and service it was really good, also this restaurant has 3 more restaurant next to each other, and there also another section to eat on the outside which it has live music playing while dining, but that section is for the other restaurant, which mean the food is different from Boka.

    We came here for our anniversary and we had the z6 sushi roll and the new truffle butter sushi roll which were phenomenal. We also had the tenderloin and NY strip which were cooked to perfection and the cocktail were spectacular even the decorations it came with. Definitely a place I would recommend and visit again. The best part was it was so cost efficient especially for all we got...btw they serve family size meals. Overall awesome place to have drinks and drink.

    Went here for my birthday dinner with my wife. Best food and atmosphere in the area for sure. Highly recommend to try this place. Its off the main street and looked a little empty at first sight. But the food and service was amazing. The ceviche was very good (first experience for me and i LOVED IT). also the house wine was very pleasant. The waitress was very polite and attentive. Nothing bad to say. Maybe the best birthdays dinner i had in many years.

    We went here as it was recommended to us. We selected two appetizers and clearly communicated a severe allergy (with a card translating the allergy, what it includes and the consequences). We were told the dish had not nuts. The menu did not mention any almonds in the description. Then, the dish came out covered in almonds. The positive is that they didn’t charge us for it, but I feel like this is a big mistake.

    (Translated by Google) Excellent restaurant. Nicely decorated, very good food, nice weather. I went with my husband and ordered a starter with au gratin mushrooms that came very well served for two people, the largest mushroom we have ever eaten. Main course was the sensational Paella de Mariscos which also quietly serves two people. No doubt a great option in Cartagena. Dishes plus one wine cost on average $ 190. (Original) Excelente restaurante. Muito bem decorado, comida muito boa, clima agradável. Fui com meu esposo e pedimos uma entrada com cogumelos gratinados que veio muito bem servida para duas pessoas, o maior cogumelo que já comemos inclusive. De prato principal foi a Paella de Mariscos sensacional que também serve tranquilamente duas pessoas. Sem dúvida uma ótima opção em Cartagena. Os pratos mais um vinho custou em média R$ 190.

😠 I’m disappointed in the service we have been having at crepes and waffles. Extremely slow, rude waitresses, they do not give you attention- plus there was a green worm in our food. Did not take it off our bill

👍 If the servers were only helpful and friendly I would give this restaurant five stars. The servers seem to have an attitude and an air of snootiness. Not acceptable. The food is well presented but it does take a while to get it. My Poblano crepe was quite acceptable. The mushroom crepe was super yum...
