Came here for my wife's brunch party for her birthday. She booked a big table for the outside, but it was way too hot. The ceiling for the patio is what caused the heat to be more intense. I think they need to fix that we moved inside so we weren't part of the party and the patio with the DJ and mariachi, but we were close enough so now for the food I will not get the food again overly priced for mediocre food it was fun, but I don't know if I would go again unless we go just to drink and with the same group we went with!

Chilaquiles with steak
Rachel R.

Went here for brunch on Sunday and sat outside in the covered patio area. It was very vibey and we didn't wait for a table! Also, really enjoyed the food! They bring the most delicious salsas to the table. The guac was good. We loved everything we ordered. The divorced eggs were very good with beans that were amazing! Loved the chilaquiles, although the amount of meat was lighter than we hoped. Good service! The Bloody Mary and espresso martini were amazing! We will be back here for brunch.

Brunch burger. Fries were a bit like those from the frozen food section at grocery store

Came for brunch on a Saturday for a friend's birthday. Overall consensus from group was that it may be a spot for drinks, but not for food. Pros: decor, music, cocktails (according to friends), and chips and salsa Cons: limited gluten free options at brunch, severely overpriced for portion size ($19 for guacamole and chicharrones -- you get 7 of them for that price and they charge $3 for extra), the waitstaff had limited knowledge of menu and what an item actually was (for example I was told a dessert was a cheesecake, then a cake, then a bread pudding (mind you the menu mentions none of these items in the description)), and there are only two tables but the service was quite slow.

Tacos
Juliette G.

Amazing service & amazing food! I'm so excited there is a fun restaurant with awesome food and service. The tacos were so flavorful and tender. The drinks were absolutely superb! Perfect for girls day. Wish you guys much success

Taco Tron Chorizo

Came on a Saturday night, we had a reservation and were seated on time. Service was slow even though the restaurant was empty. The entire table ordered tacos and we waited an hour for them. One of the tacos had a long hair in it. For the price of the food and service, would not recommend.

Bocado saved our night!!!! We had the most phenomenal meals (steak was amazing, sides were impecable, cocktails were AMAZEBALLS) - celebrating our bride to be! The staff (especially Natalie) made our night so special and memorable! I will be back here soon for a special date night with my husband - we live 40+ miles away - but this place is absolutely worth the drive!!!!!

Drink menu
Jessie C.

Great place for cocktails! We didn't get to try the food but we got the sandia spritz ($13) and the espuma pasión ($14). The bartender made us an extra free sandia spritz so the service was so nice! The inside has a dim intimate vibe to it. Would be a great place for a date night or small group outing.

Happy hour tacos
John W.

This place was tremendous. Beautiful interior and we were seated immediately. Service was very friendly and attentive. I had the three tacos on their happy hour menu...each one was better than the last. Three salsas as well to try. Excellent all around. Don't sleep on this one, Dallas!

Taco capricho, Colbrus, chicharron, pork belly
Samantha C.

Finally got to try this place! They've done a great job at redecorating the space, but it was a bit empty for a Thursday night, which resulted in our waitress being a little too attentive. I really enjoyed the sangria and the food was pretty tasty. The taco capricho were probably my favorite from what we tried. We also got the sea bass tacos which were slightly disappointing. The colbrus was good, the sauce complimented the Brussel sprouts well and was very savory. I liked the other dishes, but what bothered me was that in every dish, the meat portion is little baby chunks, which is hidden in a bunch of fluffy veggies. I would've preferred larger pieces of meat that I didn't have to go fishing for in the dish.

Try the Chilaquiles & French Toast!

I tried this place for brunch yesterday, and it completely exceeded my expectations! The service was outstanding--staff were constantly checking in, making sure everything was perfect, and even refilling bottles for you without needing to ask! Now, the food--truly top tier! Every dish was packed with flavor, and you can really taste the effort they put into preserving authentic, traditional flavors. To top it all off, there was a lively mariachi band that interacted with guests, adding so much energy and fun to the experience.Easily a 10/10. I'll definitely be coming back!

La coqueta and tortita ahogada for me, and a margarita and chilaquiles verdes for her
Paul C.

TL;DR: for their first time serving brunch, it was a nice meal with some areas to improve on. With time, I could see it becoming a regular spot for me! I'd been meaning to try Bocado after Dahlia closed down. We came in with brunch reservations not realizing it was actually their first day offering brunch! We got lucky with street parking on Hall, but they also have valet. Ambience: there was a big group having a baby shower, so it was a little hectic with kids and families, but not a big deal. Otherwise, it was clean with dark decor. Service: our server Manuela, along with the rest of the staff, went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. There did seem to be some miscommunication throughout the meal, like multiple servers checking in if we'd ordered or bringing extra salsa. But I know they were figuring things out, so the mild confusion wasn't a major concern. Drinks: - La coqueta: rum, pineapple, orange, and coconut. Very tasty and sweet, to the point where I couldn't really tell if it had alcohol... but good nonetheless. - Margarita: just from their regular menu. Definitely a solid marg! Food: - Tortita ahogada: loved the flavors of the dish, but it wasn't warm (again, maybe from it being their first day of brunch). FYI portion size is on the smaller side. - Chilaquiles verdes: although tasty, my partner wished it had more salsa and more spice. They ended up bringing a different orange salsa which definitely helped. Value: prices were mid-range - for Mexican breakfast/brunch, it's not the cheapest but also not too expensive. Overall, we still had an enjoyable meal with great service. I would return, but maybe after giving them some more time to nail out all the details and find their groove.

Food is okay, nothing I would ever go back for. Margaritas were good expect it took 25 minutes to get a frozen margarita which is absurd! The service was awful! I had called a month prior to book for a large party that way the restaurant could accommodate but they lack efficiency and service. I asked for water 5 times and I wish I was lying and it wasn't until I asked for the manager that they brought water. Don't waste your money here it's not worth it.

Valentine's Day 4 course meal
Brooke D.

Me and my boyfriend came here for a Valentine's Day dinner. Bocado had a four course pre set dinner menu which was lovely. When we walked in we were both handed a glass of champagne which was a nice touch. This spot has only been open for a month so I was very impressed with how they managed to pull off a holiday meal. The food was all great! I have no complaints there. The restaurants decor was very nice, I wish some of the lights were dimmed a bit more to really create an even more romantic atmosphere but that's me being super critical. I am excited to see how this spot does as they continue to get more experience!

He literally told me, "If a drop of rain comes, then I'll give it to you." It had rained for much of the day, and multiple customers were asking about the same promotion. If the requirement is that rain must physically be falling while you order, that needs to be clearly stated in the advertisement. Otherwise, the promotion feels misleading. I've been to Parliament several times and have never had a bartender interpret the rainy-day happy hour this way. I ended up ordering a smoked Old Fashioned from another bartender I've had before, and it was great. He was friendly, engaging, had great energy, and even did tricks while making the drink. I still enjoyed my cocktail, but it would've been nice to have the option to order from the happy-hour menu as advertised that day. I'm including the Instagram post for reference. I'm very disappointed as I've never not had a good time at Parliament. I really think that the owner should look at the Times stamps around 930 to 10:15pm part night and see the difference of business and traffic flow from when the taller bartender with the glasses versus the shorter Bartender with the glasses was at the front as it was instantly more business. Oh and lastly, I left my Betsy JOHNSON purple umbrella. I'm so sad and they don't have a number to call.

We ordered many drinks, appetizers and each had an entree as well. Ryan was flawless the entire time we are there. We walked in and immediately had low expectations. Ryan turned that around quickly and convincingly. Not only was his service excellent but the food was excellent as well. It reminded me of a trip I took to Ireland about 9 years ago.

The quesadillas was delicious. The tacos were crates and the wings had all different flavor flavors to them. The dry wings were my favorite. They were so crispy and seasoned perfectly. The wet wings were a lot of sauce and of course I'm trying to look dainty like a lady and I've got sauce all over my face, lol but it was all good. It was a great great time and the service was fabulous.

It was so extremely LOUD my wife and I had to SCREAM to communicate similar to what you might have to do at a Concert, Finally, the room was too cold, but that might be a personal point of view If you go there, it seems the problems were somewhat better if outside it on the main level We couldn't wait to leave as we ate fast even though there were so many good points about the place if I was blind AND deaf possibly Everything would have been perfect so as to not complain about the darkness and loudness (shrug) PS I took the picture at 7 using a photo-light for the picture, it is as not lit the way the picture gives you the impression, PLUS my table had No light at my table some had a slight wall light, better there but not great

We did show up maybe 1.5ish hours before the game and the whole place was packed, but I didn't mind sticking around even in the heat because they have a very nicely shaded outdoor patio area. This is a great spot to watch any of the FIFA games-- also came back here for the Norway game yesterday and had just as good of a time like the last. They have TVs everywhere inside (both floors) and a huge TV outside as well. The restrooms are clean. They have a lot so that helps especially when it's there's a lot of people-- hate going to places with ONE bathroom. A bunch of seating too- lots of high tops upstairs/downstairs, bunch of tables outside & they have a lot of extra chairs. Service is great. Everyone always checks in to ask how everything's going and drinks/ food don't take too long to come out. I do LOVE their flatbreads. I've tried several flatbreads and they are all super tasty and not too expensive. I did appreciate that when Mexico scored during that first game, the servers brought out a bunch of shots free for everyone to celebrate! I thought that was a nice touch since other bars I have been to in the area are not as thoughtful or organized enough to host a lot of people during the World Cup! Sweet touch. Will obviously be back!
