Now that I've had the opportunity to visit the new location of Eloise, I'm super happy about the…read morechanges and everything they're bringing to this side of town. Let's be honest, now that I'm in my 30s there are times when you want a bomb-ass cocktail but have absolutely zero desire to drive towards downtown or Utep area. Eloise answers my liquid thirst for a great cocktail or drink with a casual vibe that has some unique flair to the space. There is plenty of space now at Eloise and they can accommodate a larger crowd while still holding onto that neighborhood bar/eatery vibe. Not the easiest to accomplish tbh! What really stood out to me was their infusion program and the variety of infusions they have for their signature cocktails. To see the big infusion jars in action on their back wall is always a fun moment. My boyfriend really enjoyed their Mexican Martini and I was a fan of an old fashioned. Didn't have a chance to try their food menu, but everyone around me seemed to really enjoy their plates. I kept eyeing their nachos and fries lol. Music is super laid back and at a volume wher eyou can have a solid conversation. The staff here is super nice and really engaging which was a bonus moment.

Not cheap as expected, but some of the most flavorful delicious tacos I've ever tasted…read more We started with the elote (corn on the cob) then had a grilled shrimp, grilled fish, and pollo(chicken) taco at the bar with a blue corn larger. The blue corn tortillas were amazing - I noticed they were 1/2 blue, 1/2 white but still delicious. Eating at the bar worked out well - the bartender helped us order and the tacos came out fast.

Also got the Jamaica juice which was also mid at best, tasted watered down. This place is definitely your typical hipster joint that can get away with selling mediocre tacos at a high price. It's a shame people do not know any better so that the restaurant can get away with it.

The hostess and server were very friendly. I love the decor. The random light fixtures were a nice touch. I'm not a drinker so a Topo Chico with lime was perfect. They didn't skimp on the limes either. The Lomo Saltado was very good. I'm a salty gal and thought this might be just a tad bit too salty. Personal taste though. No need to complain or send it back. It tasted great and I would definitely order it again.

I ordered the tuna appetizer, and the tuna was very pale in color and did not look like the traditional seared tuna I was expecting. After tasting it, I sent it back, but there was no real attempt to address the issue or offer to remove it from the bill. I was hopeful the tacos would be better, and while they weren't terrible, they also weren't enough to turn the experience around. Overall, the food quality and the waitress's demeanor left a lot to be desired. I wanted to share my experience so others have a better idea of what to expect.

TDLR synopsis: sometimes service can be the reason that you come to a brunch place even though the…read morefood is just ok. I saw some pictures of a new brunch place in the Far East off Zaragoza, and it looked good. It's hidden in the back next to Sky Zone and across the street from Oasis Lanes, so finding it was a little hard. When I walked in I didn't realize it was so small because I had convinced some of the girls to come to try it out with me from the Peachlab workouts. They wanted to come out to celebrate Nurse B's birthday as well as mine because that's the type of supportive community they are, but most are vegan, so I try to find places that have vegan food alongside others so that we can dine together as a group. When I saw that Boca Brava had vegan tacos on the menu, I was really excited. What I didn't know was that on Sundays they only have a Sunday Brunch menu and it doesn't have the regular items. The vegan tacos $3 each consisted of mushrooms, bell peppers, and onions (grilled and pickled), my friends enjoyed it with a variety of salsas. Luckily for us, our waitress was amazing and she got the staff to make us some vegan tacos. They were beyond accommodating and I appreciate that. Because they obviously were in a rush to make items that weren't on the menu that day, the tacos didn't come out perfectly and they're willing to redo it and also not charge us for it. My breakfast plate of 2 eggs, hashbrowns, one bacon slice, and 3 corn pancakes (with slightly spicy maple syrup) was $15. Mimosas were $3. My hashbrowns were really greasy, but the over-easy eggs and crispy bacon were cooked perfectly. The best part was the corn pancakes, I don't think I've had a lighter pancake but with substance. It wasn't doughy which is usually why I avoid pancakes, but crispy and light, probably because of the cornmeal. It was delicious. My other friend ordered chilaquiles and said that it was delicious and not mushy. We also ended up getting 2 free chocolate cakes because they overheard us saying that it was our birthday. Our waitress even took our picture, but I got cropped out, lol, my bad I didn't check the pictures until I got home. For a new place willing to admit they can be better and put the customers first, I really think they'll do well. It's refreshing and it'll bring back repeat customers. If I lived in the far East this would be one of my regular places. Boca brava (915) 219-8700 1691 N Zaragoza Rd STE 5, El Paso, TX 79936 https://maps.app.goo.gl/exW9sS3pcPrAvNzZ6

Everything was really yummy and very reasonable priced. I got the burrito and it was massive. I was stuffed after and could have made two meals out of it.

So I'd recommend buying one with the orange juice and then buying champagne only for the others.

He was a super good doggie though. The service was great, fast, and food was fabulous. I had the $19 Poke Bowl. I ordered before I noticed the price. Yikes! I had that, a water, and their fried oreos (to go), for a total of $26, after tip. Yikes! Not sure I can afford that again unless I do appetizer only.

As a regular meat eater, it's not necessarily the type of restaurant I would be attracted to but the service & meal was very pleasant. Jake was on point with his service & recommended the daily specials - which included the "meat"ball sub sandwich with salad. I also opted in for the Mac & Cheese appetizer because it sounded great. Ordered a manzanita drink (drink selection is a little different than many other restaurants). The Mac & Cheese appetizer was delicious! Actually, my favorite part of the meal! The sub sandwich came with a simple green salad that was a nice combo. The sandwich bread was soft & warm and included meatballs covered in sauce & melted cheese. Not bad at all but due to my own personal preference the meatballs weren't my personal favorite. In the future, I think I'll lean toward options that don't feature "meat" because of my preference but for those who look for or prefer vegan options, go visit Jake & check out this new downtown El Paso eatery!
