It was date night for my wife and I, we decided to try Boca for the first time and the experience was amazing! The food was fresh, perfectly seasoned, and perfectly cooked. Well balanced flavors and textures. Our server Justin was very attentive and helpful the entire night. He helped us decide everything from drinks and appetizers to entrees and desserts. He was very knowledgeable, descriptive, and accurate on his recommendations. The ambiance is perfect for a date night, drinks with friends, or any event really. They have lots of tables, a large bar, and even a private area if you have the need for it. We got two mocktails because we were participating in dry January. I got the passion fruit Boat Drinks and my wife got the Hibiscus Nojito. Both drinks were really good! To start we got the French Onion soup and the Pig and the Bee flatbread. Both were really tasty. The French Onion soup was nicely balanced with the perfect amount of cheese on top. Next time we'll ask for more croutons. The flatbread was delicious!! It was the thinnest, crispiest flatbread I've ever had with the right amount of toppings. The salty and savory meats with the drizzle of hot honey was perfect. For entrees my wife got the Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Shrimp and I got the Staff Meal which happened to be a Chicken and Bacon carbonara...the gnocchi was incredible. The textures and flavors were amazing. The carbonara was really good too but the gnocchi stole the show. For dessert we got a latte and a cappuccino and got the Cherry Cobbler to go. I reheated the cobbler in a ramekin in my air fryer, it was so delicious!! We will definitely be back! read more

BOCA never disappoints. I ordered the OMG burger and it was juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. The fries were just as impressive--crispy, well-seasoned, and the perfect side to go with the burger. I paired it with a smoked Old Fashioned, which is my go-to cocktail, and they nailed it. Smooth, balanced, and that subtle smoky finish really elevated the whole experience. If you're in the Lake Mary area, BOCA is definitely worth checking out. read more

Boca - Omg burger - New American Near Me - Lake Mary, Florida

Disappointed. After waiting for 5 minutes before being acknowledged, the hostess actually told us she had a "reservation to seat" and asked the people arriving to follow her to be seated. Just rude. Then the food Ginger Pomberry said it had fresh strawberries, but not to be found. The bee honey flatbread said onion jam but no onion jam! Nice decor. read more

First Impressions The restaurant feels modern and upscale, but still welcoming. When we arrived, the main dining area was fairly quiet, while the bar and patio were busy for happy hour. Despite the elevated feel, the atmosphere was relaxed -- jeans and a t-shirt didn't feel out of place. Parking Located in a large shopping center. Street parking can be limited during peak times, but there is plenty of parking available in nearby lots. Food * Corn fritters: Very good and a great shareable appetizer. They're cheesier and spicier than expected, which is worth noting. * Brie and apple flatbread: Decent, but slightly underwhelming. I'd order it again, though the apple served appeared to differ from what was listed on the menu. However, it was a nice surprise that they made it in a heart shape for us considering it was almost Valentine's Day. * OMG Burger: Excellent -- juicy, flavorful, and the clear standout. The fries were a bit plain, so upgrading to truffle fries is a good move. * Drinks: The Cardigan was flavorful and unique, especially fitting for fall. The Hibiscus Nojito was refreshing and not too sweet, though a little pricey for a mocktail. Service The hostess was friendly and greeted us right away. It wasn't mentioned until after we were seated that happy hour wasn't offered in the main dining area, which would have been helpful to know earlier. Service overall was fine, though there were some gaps in menu knowledge and check-ins, and one dish wasn't prepared exactly as described. We also didn't receive a manager visit during the meal. Final Thoughts Overall, I would technically give our experience 3.5 stars, our first visit to Boca wasn't a bad experience, and I'd return -- especially for happy hour or their brunch as the prices for dinner were pretty high and did not seem to align with the quality of food you get. A few items fell short of expectations, but there's enough here to make it worth another try. read more

I want to give this place a chance. However after a few attempts, I'm done! decor and service is not bad with a decent vibe. They have a really good bar and a good menu if lots of alcohol choices. However, the food isn't good. It's literally straight out of the Sysco catalog. Nothing great. Unfortunately there's just nothing here. read more

Boca is a relaxed, neighborhoodrestaurant vibe paired with food that is for comfort. This is a spot that takes foods and gives them just enough polish to feel special. The fried green tomatoes are a standout starter, crispy on the outside, with that perfect tangy bite inside that only a well cooked green tomato delivers. The pimento cheese topping was delicious. The coating was light and well-seasoned, allowing the tomato's natural flavor to shine rather than overpowering it. The zucchini fries are equally addictive Crunchy, and not at all greasy, with a tender interior that makes them feel fresher and lighter than your average fried side. The green goddess dressing was EVERYTHING for these zucchini fries. Definitely get more of that dressing. Then there's the OMG Burger, which fully earns its name, so juicy and tender. I loved the burger and the fresh cut potato fries. Paired with Boca's casual atmosphere and great service, the OMG Burger alone is reason enough to come back, but I loved the atmosphere here too. Would highly recommend for a relaxed and elegant meal. read more

This was my first time visiting Boca. Upon entering we were greeted and immediately seated. I decided on my usual Steak and Eggs with Fresh Fruit. I also ordered the Boca Espresso Martini. Others in my group ordered the Parmesan Truffle Fries, Fried Green Tomatoes, Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, Farmhouse Breakfast, Brie & Apple Flatbread, and Cardigan Cocktail. The Steak and Eggs were ok. The Steak looked burnt and dry but actually tasted good. It was seasoned and juicy. The Boca Espresso Martini was delicious. It had a great blend of coffee and alcohol. I sampled the Cardigan and thought it was great. The flavor of the pear came through and mixed well with the other ingredients. I loved the way the coffee was presented and served. Everyone else especially enjoyed the Brie & Apple Flatbread. I would return again to try other food options. I definitely want to return just to try the Spritz tree. I have seen it in person and it looks wonderful. read more

I have had the Boca in Winter Park bookmarked for quite a while and this newly opened location ended up being the first one to visit. The outside area is nice but a bit small. Service was attentive. The LOBSTER WONTONS - cream cheese, scallions, citrus soy glaze dipping sauce were a great way to start dinner. The ZUCCHINI FRIES - green goddess dressing were a bit of a surprise as I did not expect them to look like potato fries! I really enjoyed my SWEET POTATO GNOCCHI Oyster - mushroom, garlic sage cream, parmesan, broccolini, brown butter as my main meal and it was nice to have an Elderberry Cider as a light option for a drink. Overall, very happy with my first time experience and I will be back! read more

We recently visited for brunch and sat outside on their large patio. The service was a tad slow but it was busy and no fault to the server she was great and checked on us many times. The Cuban sandwich was good but missed a little on the flavor. We ordered a cinnamon roll to start and it took 3 tries to get it to come out not burnt. However, the service recovery by the chef was solid. He brought it out himself and gave us a complimentary large muffin. Overall, it was good but a few tweaks and could be great. read more

Our server Genny (pronounced "Henny") was awesome, attentive, made sure our drinks were always full and everything came out to our liking. We sat outside which was beautiful with plenty of shade from umbrellas. The bloody mary could have used a little more of a kick, but was solid. Corn fritters to start were delicious, nice crispy shell with cheesy filling. Cilantro sauce was a nice touch as well. The chicken and waffles were massive, two waffles with two fried chicken thighs. Chicken had a nice crispy breading and juicy, tender meat. Waffles were fluffy inside with a light sugar coating that cut through the richness of the chicken and gravy. Overall a wonderful experience for brunch, I'd definitely come back here to try more of their menu! read more

Had a fabulous brunch! Our waiter was great. He kept drinks flowing and made solid recommendations. The inside is cozy, clean and has a gorgeous bar. It wasn't loud and the crowd was a good age mix. For brunch, we tried the chicken and waffles and the sourdough breakfast sandwich. Excellent lattes as well. We're really looking forward to coming back for another brunch and trying them for dinner. Great local spot! read more

We typically go to the location in Winter Park, so we were excited to know that they built one closer to home! After dinner, we came here for espresso martinis and their peanut butter pie. Excellent quality just as we expected. Shout out to our server, Genny! So fun to be around. We hope to see you when we dine in for food next time! read more

First, the location is so much nicer than when it was Dexter's. Great to see. The service was nice, interesting menu. It has a nice vibe, not loud just right. Some of the dishes and desserts were really good, a couple B+. Ditch the Swiss Press coffee and tell the bar tender what a nice liquor pour looks like ("oh we pour doubles"... No not even close) to make this even better. Will return. read more

We came in for Sunday brunch and had a good experience! We have been to the Winter Park location many times, but wanted to try the new one. It's beautiful and in a great location. Service was great! We were welcomed, seated, and served quickly. We love their cocktails. My mom always gets the hibiscus martini. I loved the Florida Pilsner, which is an orange blossom Pilsner with Aperol. We shared the pig and the bee flatbread, which was a perfect mix of salty and sweet. To eat, I had the fork and knife breakfast sandwich with potatoes. It was rich and well constructed. My dad got the chicken and waffles which was also incredibly delicious. My mom loves their Caesar salad. You can't go wrong! This is a great spot for brunch! read more

Great moment to enjoy some brunch for a celebration of one of my girlie's birthdays. I interacted with the front staff who were extremely friendly and kind. I was seated and had a please of working with a kind server who recommended some awesome food to try. I tried the Hibiscus nojito which is a mocktail and it was fabulous. The lime and Hibiscus paired perfectly together. Perfect drink for those who do not want an alcoholic beverage. Secondly I ordered the avocado toast . It was so good it the human ate first before the camera lol. I didnt even realize that I didn't take a photo until I went to write my review. Okay Boca you guys got me. I will be back for some brunch happens. I highly recommend this Boca location in Lake Mary, FL. I also love the location of the establishment. It's surrounded by many other great shops for you to explore. See you!! read more

I recently went to Boca with a couple of girlfriends for our monthly brunch date. It was my first time visiting this restaurant, which is located in a very nice plaza in Lake Mary. They have a trendy outdoor seating area, and the interior is just as nice. We all ordered different dishes, and the food was tasty, but my favorite part besides spending time with my gal pals, was definitely the coffee experience. The coffee came out in a French press along with a small hourglass timer. The server flipped it over, and once the sand ran out, it was time to press and pour your coffee. Such a unique and fun touch! 10/10 would recommend, our server was friendly and even recommend some dishes. If you're looking for a nice spot for brunch, or a date, Boca is worth checking out. read more

My husband and I have a hard time going anywhere else except Boca. We are a bit obsessed. Everything we've tried has been spectacularly delicious. Our favorite is the Brussels sprouts appetizer! I have been here on a few date nights, a girls night, and a double date night, and each time, the service has been amazing - with wait staff that is very kind and personable. Highly recommend Boca! read more

Brunch was excellent. Freshly made, we ordered the fried green tomatoes which had tomato jam, pimento, and bacon! Yum!!!!! We shared the steak & eggs which came with potato. I asked for an extra side of chimichurri and it was absolutely phenomenal. Hit the spot. I enjoyed the Bloody Mary and my partner had the Morning Martini which had mezcal & espresso. She thought it was interesting and balanced! Vibes were exactly the same location in Winger Park which we've enjoyed several times. Overall, really good experience, we will definitely be back, it's closer to home which is awesome! read more

The food was delicious and the service was attentive but not overbearing. The truffle fries were good but not as hefty as at Vineyard across the street. The Caesar was good but not great because of the "croutons" tasted scorched -- they looked like burnt tortillas, and there were few capers. Salmon with roasted vegetables was very tasty as was the special lamb lollipops (2) over pumpkin purée with pecans. The special dessert was cherry cobbler but I opted for crème brûlée that was deliciously orange flavored. read more

The Happy Hour menu is a great way to try out this new spot in Lake Mary. The flatbreads are great and the Boca Board gets you the most bang for your buck food wise! I didn't get any cocktails or drinks, but my friends did and they seemed to enjoy it all! Their patio area is a good size and accommodated our large party of 9. HH on a Friday night was hopping. Service was a little slow during this time because I'm sure everyone was trying to get HH prices before we were cut off lol. Anyways, our waitress was super sweet and helpful. I'll definitely be back. read more

What an amazing experience. We went for brunch on a Saturday around noon and didn't have a reservation but we're sat right away. It was nice outside so we opted for an outdoor table in the shade with an umbrella. I got the unlimited mimosas and what I loved is they serve you a glass of champagne and the juice on the side so you can put as much as you want in it. When switched juices the server brought me a new glass, our server Genny (pronounced Henny) was very attentive and I didn't even have to ask for my next mimosa refill. It is $29 for the unlimited mimosas but they made sure to provide great and attentive service. We ordered the corn fritters as an appetizer and OMG they didn't disappoint. The inside was so cheesy and gooey. The biscuit and gravy was very good and came with an egg on top. The chicken and waffles was HUGE and the waffles were sweet. The cubano had a nice crisp on the bread. My husband got the Bloody Mary spicy and could have had more spice. Overall this was an amazing experience. Good food, good service, and good atmosphere. The manager also checked on us twice to make sure everything was good and that we didn't need anything. I can't want to come back!!! read more

Went to the Lake mary location and the food is excellent. We had great service and the ambiance is much better (replaced the old liams). Not the best espresso martini in the world but they have a full service bar with a round choice of cocktails. The smokey old fashioned is a crowd favorite. The tuna tartar app and duck entree are both filled with flavor and stood out to us. However you can not leave without getting the fried green tomatoes app. read more

Couldn't wait to visit Boca in Lake Mary it was long time to come. For the first week open was a success to me. The service, vibe and food were outstanding. Megan the manager was outstanding, attending to guest and answering questions. They did outstanding renovations with the place. The Bartender we had Jordan was outstanding with his drink selections for me. I can't wait to visit in the near future for brunch or happy hour. read more

I have visited the location in winter park so I thought I would give this location a try. So glad to have a new place in Lake Mary! The inside is beautiful and very welcoming. We received decent service. Our waiter was very sweet however, there was a language barrier with ordering and asking questions. I tried the spicy pineapple mocktail and it was very peppery, not my favorite. The basil lemonade was very good. I had the old man egg platter which came with sausage, bacon, toast, eggs and potatoes. I can tell everything is super fresh and locally sourced. They seem to make most of their ingredients from scratch and the food certainly tastes like it. I really enjoyed the food but it did take almost 30 minutes to come out. Overall I like this place and it's new so I'm sure they're working out the kinks. I will be back next week when happy hour starts read more

Love Boca! The "Pig and the Bee" flatbread is a must. Also, don't leave without trying their Brussel sprouts.

We enjoyed our meal. We grabbed the brussel sprouts (I wished they were actually tossed in the vinaigrette versus just on the side), lobster wontons (the sauce was a little tangy but the actual dish was great), and the seafood scampi (loved this overall). For dessert we enjoyed the orange vanilla crème brûlée (we could literally smell the sugar being toasted). The service was absolutely wonderful. We sadly couldn't try their calamari because they were out. So hopefully we get another opportunity to try it soon! read more

Nice atmosphere and friendly vibe. I ordered the sweet potato gnocchi-- it was just okay, nothing special -- and a cool drink that was refreshing. Overall, it was a good experience and I'd consider coming back. read more

We met family to experience the brand new Boca in Lake Mary. The atmosphere was energizing, the layout and decor enjoyable and service exceptional. Our server kept our glasses full and was very attentive to our party. The presentation of the food was inviting as was the meal itself. We enjoyed the OMG burger topped with cheese, fresh lettuce, tomato and sautéed onion. Crispy fries accompanied our meal, just one of three Options available. Our meal ended with a decedent slice of Bourbon Pecan Cake topped with a vanilla icing, bourbon-caramel and accented with an orchid petal which offered a beautiful highlight, but also a unique treat for the pallet Thank you to Derrick, the manager and his entire team for a wonderful experience. We will certainly return & encourage others to do the same. read more

The lights are too bright in there, they need to create a better atmosphere and make it more cozy. The server was not very good and did not tell us about the specials when we first sat down. May be better to sit at the bar. I had a flatbread it was tasty but not very memorable. I may give it another try in the future. I'm hoping they offer the mimosa tree that they have at their Winter Park location. read more

Service took a while on a thursday night but all of the staff was very friendly. The bolognese was tasty I just prefer mine a little more savory and a deeper red. The ambiance is very cute, gives a nice night out in miami almost if you sit outside. Would return for sure. read more

Heyyyyyyyyyy you guyyyyyyys!! Have so been looking forward to checking this spot out and it's finally up and running. The decor is amazing, the staff from the hostess to our server Min was outstanding. Now let's get into the good eats. We started off with an espresso martini because why not when you're brunching then we shared a flatbread- which included a sunny side up egg, delicious sausage, bacon, and sausage gravy amongst a few other things which I'm sure I'm forgetting to mention. Next, we got into the French toast which included fresh fruit and a delicious maple citrus syrup and last, but not least we just got a traditional breakfast which included bacon, sausage, hash potato pieces, toast, and scrambled eggs if I had to critique anything- I would say maybe having a choice of what type of eggs you want versus just giving us scrambled eggs would've been better. Overall everything was so delicious. Cannot wait to go back. Had a wonderful time. You guys have to check it out-let's eat!! read more

Went here for a date night. The aesthetics of the restaurant is cute and modern. There are seats inside, and out front, as well as around the bar which is centered in the middle of restaurant. My husband and I got calamari, flatbreads and lobster wontons. I must admit that I was underwhelmed by everything I had; down to the drink. I had a hibiscus that came very dramatically with a bubble on top that gets popped, but the taste of the drink didn't match the dramatics. The food choices excited me when I seen the menu but the food was very mediocre. Our flatbread came out cold and we had request for a new order so that the cheese could actually be melted and hot. We ordered Brussels sprouts but they were out so the manager offered to give something else on the house. I think this restaurant has a lot of potential, especially for a place like Lake Mary where more restaurants and social places are needed - but the food needs improvement. My server was very kind and was more than willing to honor our requests during our time there. I'm on the fence on whether or not I would return. read more

Love this place! The food is always great and the staff and atmosphere is nice. Would recommend!

For what you get, the pricing seems higher than it should be. Burger was ok, fries exceptional, flatbread entree ok, chicken sandwich pretty decent as well. Probably wouldn't go back, nothing to write home about. read more

This restaurant delivered a flawless experience. The sweet potato ñoqui was pure comfort coated in a velvety sauce, I enjoyed each bite. Pairing beautifully with the food was their Old Fashioned, subtly smoky, perfectly muddled, and finished with a hint of citrus that elevated the entire meal. The yellow fin tuna poke bowl stole the show with its vibrant freshness. A perfect balance of colors and textures The service was impeccable, attentive without being overbearing.
