I came here with family and really enjoyed the experience. It's a nice, spacious place with beautiful decor. The portions were huge, and the service was very friendly. Everything we ordered was good. Overall, a great spot for a family meal.

Pollo Azado

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.

Starter chips with salsa and Ceviche De Camaron O Pescado
Jessica R.

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.

Tilapia with french fries
Reviewguru C.

Had awesome seafood soup ( 7 Mares) and friend got whole fish ( tilapia) . Fresh and flavorful! Friendly service and nice ambiance

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.

Tostada Mixta with shrimp and octopus.
Donald P.

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!

Mango margarita

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.

Ostiones Gratinados - one of 6 oysters
P E.

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.

The food, the service, the atmosphere were all amazing! New favorite restaurant! I can't wait to go back and try more things!

Gran Rodeo - Table chips and salsa

Gran Rodeo is one of those places that is consistently fast and easy. Service is usually quick, and…read moreif you order takeout, there's a good chance it'll be ready in under 10 minutes. The parking lot always seems to be packed, but don't let that discourage you if there's a wait. Tables seem to turn over pretty quickly. When you sit down, you'll get chips and salsa, and there are TVs throughout the restaurant if you're trying to keep an eye on a game. The overall vibe works for a lot of situations, whether you're out with friends, bringing the kids, or grabbing dinner with coworkers. Like a lot of Mexican restaurants, the menu is huge. My usual go-to item is the fajitas, but I recently tried the Alambres and really liked it. It comes with steak, bacon, mushrooms, bell peppers and onions covered in cheese sauce. I haven't had bacon in many Mexican dishes before, but it really worked here and made the dish stand out. They also have wings, and they definitely don't skimp on the sauce, so expect them to come pretty heavily coated. They also make their own hot sauces and will bring them out upon request. Whatever you order, expect a generous portion and a good chance you'll be bringing some home. Because of that, one move is to split an entree with your spouse and add an appetizer or two instead of ordering two full meals. The drink menu is pretty mainstream and should keep most people happy, although I'm a little surprised they don't have more local or Mexican beer options. Also be sure to check their lunch, dinner and happy hour specials. Depending on when you go, there are usually some pretty good deals worth looking at before ordering off the regular menu. There's a small amount of outdoor seating, plus bar seating and plenty of booths inside. It's attached to a busy hotel, but it still feels like its own restaurant. If anything, I think the hotel helps keep the place a little more lively, especially when guests are coming in for dinner or drinks. If you have kids, the children's menu also has chicken fingers, fries and a few other non-Mexican options, which is good to know if you have a picky eater. Overall, good portions, fast service, and a pretty easy place to bring almost any group.

Stopped for lunch the other day and incredibly glad we did…read more Did not know about this place. Food was really good and such decent portions. We sat outdoors, service was fast and our server was friendly and accommodating. He recommended a few dishes and appetizers. The guacamole was fresh and homemade as were the tortilla chips. Our meals were delicious and hot. Will return here in the future.

I have tried the steak and chicken ... both were marinated and seasoned to perfection. Don't even get me started on the service ... perfection Oh and let me say it loud for those of you in the back .... FREE MARGARITAS ... yup ... FREE MARGARITAS! I wanna gatekeep this place but lunch was a ghost town and I couldn't handle this place going under. So go here, eat in if there is a table available, order out, order catering (totally thinking of doing this when my adult children come to town ) If their dessert sucks, there is a chocolate store next door ‍ But leave happy with fine AF food in your belly.

We started driving home when she saw a very small restaurant on Bethlehem Pike, Mi Mex Cocina, and said she wanted to try it. We pulled into the parking lot and went inside. It's a very small, but nice venue run by a local family. It opened in November 2024. Of course, we started with an order of the Guacamole and Chips. I always 'hold my breath' when I order this dish lately - while the guacamole is usually good, it's the texture of the chips I've been struggling with! I bit into one chip, and it was so hard, I thought my tooth would crack!! Is it possible to have chips that are hard like wood or a rock? These were. While the Guacamole was delicious, my partner and I couldn't eat any chips. Not a good way to start the meal! My partner ordered the Carne Asada (Steak Tacos) and I ordered the Shrimp Fajitas for our entrees. We usually share, but I opted out as the 'steak' in most tacos I've had at Mexican restaurants was tough and chewy. The entrees came. My Shrimp Fajitas came on an iron skillet sizzling and steaming! The dish looked incredible (see attached picture)!! The shrimps were large and sitting on a bed of grilled onions, red and green peppers! I tasted one of the shrimp - it was delicious! It was tender and juicy and had a nice Chipotle seasoning! I made a fajita with the tortilla shells (the shells were too small and thin - they need to be larger to adequately make a decent size fajita). Regardless, I took a few shrimp, added peppers, onions, guacamole and rice, and the taste was great! My partner had a few bites and agreed it was a winner! My partner's Steak Tacos looked good - she said they tasted good in the soft taco shells. I tasted a piece of the steak - it had a very nice flavor, but was a little chewy. Not nearly as much as I've experienced at other restaurants, but still, not quite to my liking. That being said, my partner said she thought the texture was fine and throughly enjoyed her entree! Overall, it was a very good meal. We were pleasantly surprised to have discovered a little family run restaurant serving delicious Mexican food!
