Okie!!!! Boca Del Mar needs way more hype than it's getting. This is a Montgomeryville, PA gem that flew under my radar for way too long. Walked in and the vibe was already a win, warm and inviting, the kind of place where you just relax right into the vibe, or head to the large bar and watch some World Cup action. Went for lunch. Service was on point too, attentive but never annoying about it. Friendly and had real suggestions when asked about faves. They brought out complimentary ceviche and honestly, incredible start. Fresh, acid balanced perfectly so you actually taste the fish, clean, instead of just lime juice and spice. And can we talk about the rice? Sounds basic, looked normie, but it was somehow the most flavorful part of the whole meal. This flavor bomb looked plain but IYKYK that this level of execution just looks simple. The rice alone will have you thinking about indulging your inner fat kid and ordering extra to take home. Like the dessert that you'll likely skip because the portions are filling. Ps. Get the flan! We went all in and ordered the seafood chimichanga, steak, shrimp fajitas, and guac on the side. Everything was cooked exactly right. Nice char on the grilled stuff, proteins juicy and tender, nothing dry, nothing overdone. The sauces were bright and punchy too, tasted like rich Mexican flavors with that fresh from the sea quality paired with exceptionally grilled seafood and tender meat. If you're anywhere near Montgomeryville and haven't been, fix that. This place deserves a crowd. read more

My husband and I tried Boca Del Mar for the first time today for lunch. We were excited to try a new restaurant and were hoping to find a new favorite Mexican place close to home. Sadly, we both left disappointed. I ordered the fajitas Veracruz, a combination of chorizo, steak, and chicken. Fajitas are my go-to order whenever I try a new Mexican restaurant, so I was really looking forward to them. Unfortunately, they arrived warm-ish, with none of the sizzling you typically expect from fajitas. The steak was significantly overcooked, tough, and grisly. The chicken was okay, but the entire dish lacked flavor. The green peppers were also barely cooked. I ate a few bites, brought the rest home, and ultimately decided it wasn't worth keeping. I realize you don't know me, but I LOVE leftovers, so the fact that I decided to throw them away says a lot. My husband ordered the seafood tacos, which came with shrimp, octopus, and chorizo. He said they were okay, but also felt they lacked much flavor. After tip, our lunch came to about $60. Unfortunately, we felt that was too expensive for the quality of the food we received. We really wanted to like Boca Del Mar, but based on this experience, we won't be rushing back. read more

Wasn't sure what to expect- but the pictures looked good, so we tried it. The food was so so delicious We were there at an odd time, around 3:00 on a Thursday, so it wasn't crowded. The waitress was very sweet, and brought us a second serving of ceviche with really crisp and fresh chips. They said they made them in house My husband ate the Mexican sushi - and declared it was some of the best sushi he's had in a long time. Honestly- it was deep fried. It doesn't take much to impress him. I loved their food- if we're ever in the area- we would go back! read more

Everything's was spot on down to the salted margarita and 3 milk cake. The appetizer was a pleasant surprise. Baked oysters tasted and was more like fresh shrimp, clam and seafood topped with cheese. They were huge and I will go back to get them. The bean and rice were flavorful yet overly so like some places. The like the steak it was large and thin and really good. I had the chicken enchiladas. The chick was perfectly seasoned and not over done in Sauce. I swapped out the horn wrap for the wheat but both would work. The salsa was good but they give you a small portion. Live karaoke on some nights. We were laughing and singing along to, oh no, they say he's got to go. Oh no Godzilla. That was one of the regulars. The staff were great. We had so much fun. read more

We had a nice date at Boca Del Mar. The service was amazing as our waitress was attentive and knowledgeable. The food came out quickly and was flavorful. They gave us a free tilapia ceviche as our appetizer. The drinks were strong and delicious. The spicy margarita had spicy undertones that don't detract from the overall flavor. The smokey mezcal has a nicely salted rim that compliments the flavor. We had the carne azada and pollo azado which were nicely seasoned and juicy. The Mexican sushi was an unexpected treat. Definitely plan to return in the future. read more

Boca del Mar is the BEST seafood at a Mexican restaurant that I've ever eaten. They don't skimp on the portions and the seafood is cooked tender, unlike the rubbery, tiny portions I typically expect. If you eat in, you also get one tray of free fish ceviche. I've been here three times now. I'd recommend coming here for lunch for cheap seafood tacos (lunch specials price). If coming for dinner, get their paella variation. It's a shame not more people come here because it's a well kept space that serves well cooked seafood for a reasonable price. That said, the seating area is spacious and often empty, so you won't have to deal with it being too crowded, even on a weekend night. read more

To start off with, the chips and salsa were pretty good. The Ceviche stole the show though. Great flavor and the green sauce was quite hot. The Pollo Sonora was fantastic. The chicken was very tender and flavorful. The peppers and onions were cooked just right with a balance of crisp, but tender. A very good dinner plate. Plus, great help behind the bar. read more

Great New Mexican Seafood Restaurant in Montgomeryville! I had the Tostada Mixta, with shrimp and octopus. Others in our party had Mexican Sushi, Crab Empanadas, and Baja Fish Tacos. We also had the President Margaritas. We very much enjoyed the food! Our server, Luisa, was both personalable and on top of her game. Sergio, the owner, came to greet us. Saturdays, they have Latin Music Night from 9:30 PM. Sundays are Mariachi Nights from 6:30. Taco Tuesdays they have $2 tacos. We'll be back! read more

The service might be a touch slow. But the food and friendliness is there. Had the Mayan tacos, seafood chimichanga, and the street corn. I wanted to fill the car with street corn to bring it home. It was amazing!!!!! The Mayan tacos may have been the best tacos I've ever had. So tender and filled with goodness. The seafood was fresh and tasty. The seafood chimichangas are rich and warm, filled with flavor. I've never had refried beans, black beans, or Mexican rice that had flavor like these did. All three were delicious. We took the rice to go. I've never done that before!!!!! Go there. Eat. Enjoy the slightly slower pace!!!! They also just made it a fun environment! read more

We came for an early dinner on Saturday. The have a pretty large drink menu and regular menu. My wife and I had margaritas. Lots of choices as well as a tequila bar. I had a Mexican version of paella (Para Ella) which was tremendously delicious with octopus, scallops, shrimp, and Alaskan king crab. My wife had a seafood chimichanga dinner. Unfortunately, I had eaten earlier but had plenty to take home. Definitely will come back. Cool Mexican motif and good service. Marta worked hard to get the tv channel so we could watch the Olympics. read more

We stopped here because we were in the neighborhood and of the other positive reviews and the seafood options. We were essentially alone at lunch here probably due to the road work just outside inhibiting travel. Nonetheless service was attentive and friendly. The server brought us chips and salsa along with a sample of ceviche. The ceviche was fresh and refreshing. The salsa hot (green) and red mild were also good. We asked our server to recommend a starter. After some discussion we settled on a the oysters topped with other seafood and some cheese. We ordered a 1/2 dozen and there was so much seafood that we were almost full after eating three. Each oyster was topped with shrimp, octopus and surimi. I could have done without the surimi but that's the way it came. We also ordered a shard plate called chapuzon which had shrimp, octopus and oyster in a spicy red sauce. It was pleasantly spicy and enough for 2. It was served with more chips and some saltines. My dining partner was quite pleased with his special margarita. Decor is casual bar style with lots of beer promo items, bright blue booths and reddish tile floors and little natural light. One negative was the sticky floors. If you like seafood, there are plenty of options. The have lunch menu for those seeking more casual options like tacos. read more

Food was delicious! I'm obsessed with the "Filete Perla." There were eight of us and only one dish, the Carnitas, was overcooked. The waitress only knew about it while clearing our table and offered to send a new meal home. I love the decor. You would never know that you are in a strip mall in Montgomeryville. I think this is our third time there and we'll definitely be back. read more

I've been here three times now, each time taking different friends. They all agree, this place is tops! The food is FANTASTIC and unlike the typical "Mexican" food one normally encounters in a US restaurant. This isn't Chipotle, folks. You want a cheap burrito, go to Chipotle or Moe's. But if you want the real deal, Boca del Mar is where you want to spend your $$. This is Sinaloan style Mexican food, which is all about fresh fresh fresh seafood. Sinaloa is on the west coast of Mexico, across the Gulf of California from Baja. Some of the best sport fishing in the world is located in this region, so its no surprise that there are lots of seafood dishes on the menu. as you browse the menu, you'll get a a bowl of fresh ceviche-style dip with homemade chips, it's delicious. I'd pay for this as an appetizer, honestly, but they serve it for free. One reviewer mentioned the prices. Well, they aren't that high, considering that it's fresh seafood (seafood averages 2x-3x more per pound in cost than pork or beef), and holy moly the PORTIONS ARE HUGE. When you go, make sure you are hungry. I can put down a big meal, but even I had to take half of it home, which made a fantastic lunch the next day! On my latest trip, we ordered the table-side guacamole, which is fantastic and more than enough for 3 people ($15). They make it table-side, obviously, and tweak it to the heat/spice level you prefer. YUM! I had the Langostinos Estilo Sinaloa, which is prawn shrimp in a dark Sinaloan sauce. Delicious. My friend had the Pina Rellena, which is shrimp, crab, octopus, and scallops cooked in a creamy mushroom sauce. It looked amazing and to be honest, I almost fought him for it. The service was very good, so friendly. Everyone is warm and inviting, and the owner stopped by for a quick chat to make sure everything was good. Of course I said it was amazing. Compliments to the chef and kitchen staff, this place is fantastic and I'll be back many times! read more

We've been waiting for this place to open and it did not disappoint! We were given ceviche when we sat down which made a great first impression. The food was very delicious and caters well to seafood lovers such as ourselves. The meals were well priced considering the portions. The drink prices were also shocking low (a 12 oz beer for $3.50!). The service was great - everyone was very welcoming and kind. The ambiance was also nice. Looking forward to coming back! read more

First, the entire place is beautiful. There's murals on the wall and the whole theme of the place really comes across well. Next the service, who were also really good. Although we didn't get water at the start, they were very attentive and kind. The food was AMAZING. Absolutely delicious, oh my god. The only critique I would have is the menu doesn't have much diversity and it is very expensive. For the quality and people that love seafood and are willing to spend a bit more, its a definite yes. read more

We came here for lunch for my birthday. Been wanting to check this place out. The ambiance is great, service great, food fair to very good. We ordered from the lunch menu. It came with chips and homemade salsa, and small bowl of mixed fish ceviche. These were great! I ordered cod fish tacos with rice and black beans. It was very good. My hubby ordered caldo de res, he said the flavor was good, it needed more in the soup than just beef chunks, would suggest pozole. Overall fair to good. It was not his favorite. He had quesabirrias with shredded beef. He also thought this was fair to good, but overall not exciting. The service was excellent. I would love to try it again. I would go for seafood options. Could be a good happy hour spot. BTW we had checked the lunch menu online prior to coming to the restaurant, and the lunch options in restaurant were more limited than online. read more

I'm in town for a short visit and came across Boca Del Mar. When I noticed the exterior decor I was surprised to see a Mexican restaurant with a costal design. Once inside my party and I were greeted by a friendly hostess who asked how our day was going. Once seated the friendly vibe continued. Our serve was friendly and very welcoming. The staff's serves were attentive. The seafood dishes we ordered were AMAZING. As a person who grew up in the south on the Atlantic coast I've eaten my fair share of quality seafood. Boca Del Mar rates as one of my top ten favorite seafood restaurants for the freshness, quantity, flavor and pricing. I'm even including in my rating seafood I've eaten around the world. Who would have guessed that a strip mall restaurant would have such great service outstanding food and fair prices. I definitely recommend trying Boca Del Mar. I'll be back on my next visit to Philadelphia. read more

We checked out this Mexican Seafood and Tequila Bar for an early dinner on Saturday. The service was great we were greeted and seated immediately and within a few minutes the waiter brought Fresh made Seafood ceviche, Crispy Tortilla chips and red and green salsa Verde.The red salsa was very tasty and mild the green Chile salsa was very spicy and hot... I enjoyed both! The ceviche was perfectly chilled with fish,scallops, shrimp and sweet red peppers and onions is a tangy vinaigrette.The cervche was delicious and well portioned appetizer for 2. Next I had my main course which was the Seafood Chimichanga stuffed with shrimp, crab and scallops and crispy fried. The seafood was fresh and plentiful inside the tasty fried shell The dish comes in a creamy sauce but I asked my server if I could have the red and green sauce instead which she happily requested for me! My meal arrived in good timing and the portion was plenty for leftovers to take home. The Restaurant is decorated with an underwater sea and beach motif to highlight the Seafood theme of the restaurant which gives it a cool atmosphere and ambiance. We really enjoyed this restaurant and will visit again! read more

Service was horrible. Food and drinks took forever to come out. Waited 30 minutes to get our drinks and an hour before we ate. Food was no longer hot. It wasn't even crowded. Prices are way too high for that kind of treatment. Plenty of better restaurants in the area serving similar dishes with much better service and much less expensive. Avoid this place. You will regret it as we did. read more

The quality of the food is good, overpriced for size of the portions, rice is cheap, they could give you more than 2 scoops, they should tell you that if you order an extra little plate of the ceviche they give you with the tortilla chips it is $8.00. The "salad" was a disappointment. Cocktails have no alcohol at all. The service was awful, it wasn't busy and it took for ever to get our food, they didn't know who order what and the cherry on top, tip is already included in your bill. We spent over $300.00 in food and drinks,no tip included. I wish we would've spent that money somewhere else and have a good experience. Big disappointment read more

Great food. Love what they did with the space. BUT ...Slow, inattentive staff. Pricey. Overall, probably won't go back.

We stopped in on a very hot day looking for a light lunch. We were greeted with a basket of chips, two types of salsa, and a plate of ceviche. I thought that was worth five stars right there. We shared the table-side made guacamole. It was outstanding. we also shared an appetizer that was a large cucumber split in half and then filled with ceviche. We got the fish ceviche and on half and shrimp ceviche on the other. It came as a platter with sliced fruit and vegetables sprinkled with Tajin. It was very tasty and refreshing. Service was good. This place is not an inexpensive burrito and enchiladas joint. It is a real restaurant serving real food. The portions are enormous. We were barely able to finish our two appetizers. I would go back, but with more people because these dishes are so large, they really do need to be shared and I'd like to try more things. read more
