I also was disappointed with the wedge fries that were recommended by many yelpers, because they weren't hot and certainly not crispy either. All the food came out tepid, which didn't help. I liked the old timey decor, Halloween pumpkins at our table, and I enjoyed the cold Shipyard Pumpkinhead beer with the sugar and cinnamon rim. I noticed that most people around us were mostly there to drink beer with friends. They have a lot of drafts on tap.

The noise level was comfortable, making it easy to have a conversation. The restaurant has a classic, upscale feel, with dark wood and dark floors throughout. Our server came right over, and we started with three orders of bacon-wrapped scallops ($16.99 for four) to share. They were cooked perfectly and served with a delicious pineapple salsa, which was a unique addition that I had never had with scallops before and really enjoyed. We also ordered a bottle of Belle Glos Pinot Noir from Sonoma ($60) for the table. Our server recommended it as a well-priced, tasty option. I had tried this wine before, so I appreciated the suggestion and was happy with the choice. Most of the table also ordered a cup of clam chowder, which was thick, hearty, and very enjoyable. It tasted like it had bacon bits in it, which added to the flavor. For my main course, I ordered the Crab Stuffed Sole ($42.99), served over rice, with a cup of clam chowder for an additional $3. The fish was cooked well and the portion was generous. The flavor was a little mild, and I would have liked a bit more sauce, but overall, it was a very enjoyable dish that left me feeling full and satisfied. For dessert, I split the tiramisu (approximately $11) with another person at the table. The portion was huge, and even split in half it was a lot. While it was good, it had a little more cream than flavor, but I still enjoyed it. I also ordered a decaf espresso, which I appreciated they had available, although it was not really hot. Our server was excellent: attentive, knowledgeable, and full of energy. Despite the restaurant being very busy, the food came out at a good pace, and we never had to wait long for anything we needed. Overall, this was a great place for a group dinner. The portions were generous, the service was excellent, and the food was enjoyable. The prices are on the higher side, so this is more of a place for a special occasion or an upscale dinner. However, I very much enjoyed my experience and would recommend it.

My outfit and I didn't love that, but the super hot plate helped bring my meat from rare to medium rare so it worked out. I didn't particularly like the lobster bisque (too much sherry), it wasn't very hot and definitely not as good as Capital Grille.

Once they announce it, you need to call immediately or get shut out. My observation about the place itself. The U shaped bar is gigantic for the space. It's a bar-bar too not like a sushi counter. This seems to draw a crowd of local drinkers rather than the normal sushi crowd. You feel like you walked into a sports bar. The place was really loud and it was hard to hear the chef explaining everything. Once seated... it's the chefs carving the tuna off to the side. There were 2 bar tenders making drinks and like 3 chefs cutting tuna.... other than that, no waitstaff. Which is really odd. You have to grab the manager who was running around helping to get your Wasabi refilled. Not to mention they gave zero place settings for about 8 of us, until we asked. The bar tenders seemed to pass over my empty drink until I asked for a refill too. It's a more chaotic event than I would have liked for $120 per person. It also takes time to carve the tuna so if you arrive hungry be prepared to not get your first tiny bite until 45 minutes after the start. The star was Chef Timmy. Honestly he was awesome. The tuna.... so good. You end to with only 3 pieces of Nigiri which was a little disappointing but the sashimi part was unlimited. Of course you have to take your plate up and ask for some. They only put about 6 small pieces of the various cuts per trip. I think I went up 5 times for sashimi alone. The tuna handrolls you can make yourself or ask the chef nicely. Those were really good. Probably best I ever had because it's so fresh. There is a limited amount of the highly prized (and highly priced) Kamatoro, but you can experience it here as it's included in the experience. That's a hard cut to find. The finale was a shot of tuna spinal fluid. My first time with that but it's not bad. You're probably looking at $150 per person unless you order alcohol than it's alot more. The fresh cut tuna is amazing. I'm glad I did it. The chaos and the setting made it less than ideal. I don't think I would go again to this location for it. One and done. It's a bit weird that you're paying $120 for this and you're still intermingled with local patrons just there to grab some beers after work and watch the game. Because of the massive bar it is impossible to create a space secluded to do it. They also should have a roaming waiter at least taking care of the 30 people who came for this experience.

Love Bocado. Went there tonight for maybe the third or fourth time and decided it deserves a review. The place is pretty great, I never knew about tappas until this place came to worcester, but i'm glad we have it. The atmosphere is awesome, the wine selection is honestly breathtaking, they have great spanish sherry and all kinds of other things that go perfectly with alot of the meals. It's a really good time, over all, and I've never had a bad meal there. And that's the thing, isn't it? When you go with alot of friends and order a dozen different little dishes, even if you don't like one or tow, your meal isn't ruined, you have all these other things, and at least you get to try something new here and there and branch out a bit. IIt's honestly one of the more fun things to do in Worcester on a Friday or Saturday night, and the food is up there with the best of them. read more

This was where I had my first "real" date with my husband. We sat in a dimly lit spot in the very back and had one of the most wonderful evenings I can ever recall. The food was great. We ordered the dinner for two which included several tapas choices, a HUGE pan of paella and dessert. The tapas was served first. Both cold and hot choices were great! He had a glass of peach sangria - he's not much of a drinker and thought it was light and refreshing. I had a flight of red wines that was very good. We were pretty full when the paella arrived - so we brought most of it home. The server was fantastic and offered great recommendations for us. We have been back a few times since our first date and we are never disappointed. read more

Bocado is a great place to eat. The food is amazingly good, it's the kind of place that you go with a group of friends and drink and eat and linger and laugh and have a great time. Last time I went was a little annoying, since the waiter wouldn't let my husband and I order random things off the menu, he made us get one of the package deals. It ended up costing us a lot more, and we really only wanted a few munchies. In talking to friends later, they said they ordering single things off the menu is something they do all the time, so it must have just been our waiter. Their bar is wonderful, too. read more

I finally got an opportunity to dine at Bocado and truly enjoyed it. I had never really fully appreciated the Tapas concept before coming here. The atmosphere is great. I was meeting some associates and was pleased that it wasn't too loud where we sat at the Bar. The bartender was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. We enjoyed the shrimp burgers, fried goat cheese, lamb chops & the beef short ribs. All were expertly prepared and delicious.

They have a menu where you can order a set number of tapas and main entrees for half the price of what you would pay on weekends. I attended a graduation dinner with 8-9 people, and there was plenty of variety and leftovers. Warm goat cheese with nuts and pickled vegetables is my favorite. A light, flavorful, and oh-so-creamy custardy dessert is also available. The chocolate cheesecake and melted chocolate-dipped churros are both delicious. This is probably Worcester's best restaurant, and it's where I'd take visitors for a nice fancy meal. read more

Tonight we chose to do Italian theme and did pasta dishes - the bolognese was amazing - more of a light cream sauce than a heavier red sauce.

Our server was phenomenal and handled our table with great care ensuring my little one had her drink and food out quickly . For appetizers we ordered : baked goat cheese (3) of them lol , calamari , lobster chowder and Thai lettuce wraps. Everything was 10/10 but the baked goat cheese deserves a reward hands down it was sooooooooooooo good !!!! For dinner our table all order something different but I'm really enjoyed the prosecco pasta , Wowzers if you love scallops and shrimp and a creamy cheese sauce .. you need to order this for sure ! We didn't order dinner as we were all stuffed after our entrees but the lavender lemon drop martini deserves a shout out as well ! I definitely recommend this restaurant!

They also have a large parking lot which was a must for me driving from out of town! The calamari was good and I really enjoyed my turkey club sandwich. The bread was delicious!
