Boca Fiesta - Gainesville

This restaurant is one of our favorite spots and if you enjoy Mexican food and margaritas, you will love it too. Be sure to try the guacamole!

My partner and I visited this restaurant on a Saturday around 6:00 and Shanti was our server. We started with some guacamole (DIY style, as they provide a bowl of avocados, a masher, and spices to mix in) which was delicious. I had a regular margarita while my partner had the Boca Marg, both of which were excellent. We had a great time and enjoyed the drinks throughout the night. For dinner, we had steak burritos which were perfect. It was one of the best date nights we've had since Covid and we appreciated the fantastic service from Shanti. If you have the choice, I recommend sitting outside as they create a lovely atmosphere that is very comfortable. I highly recommend this restaurant!

The shrimp bowl was incredible and the margaritas were nice and strong! The fried vegan mac and cheese balls were also delicious.

Boca has always been one of my favorite restaurants in gainesville. always fun to come with friends. Maybe not the most authentic Mexican food, but it still tastes good. I love her tempeh I don't know how they taste it so good. this youngest time we just got apps and got the di guacamole (which I wished with red tweaking and diceed tomaten) and fried Gator bites (axis) I have always got the Tempeh taco salad. the margaritas are fantastic. the small bar on the back, backyard, is also a good time, especially if they happen to be there for thirst trivia. it is just such a beautiful mood here and will always hold a special place in my heart!

Love the food here. Drinks are good too. Surprisingly fast service as well. Our only complaints are minor. Music was too loud as we couldn't hear each other at the outside table. Our server struggled to hear us ordering. We asked for them to turn it down slightly and the server said they were not allowed, so it sounds like a management issue on that end. Due to the difficulty in hearing, our order had mistakes. Simple thing for management to fix.
