Had been to Boca 5 years ago but went recently again. Place was practically empty for lunch which was a little surprising, but my family and I all loved our food! I got the Chicken Ranchero burrito and my fiancee had a steak taco, and both were delicious. Prices were reasonable and the menu was extensive. Service was friendly. Overall... More

Maybe we should have known better when we arrived at lunchtime and the place was deserted. This used to be a pretty good place. It's not anymore.

Went there with a colleague for quick lunch. I had the Grilled Vegetables Burritos – the grilled vegetables were really good and the burrito was fresh and actually better than chipotle. The only thing bothered me was that the floor was totally dirty (the busboy was literally shoving all leftovers off the tables). More

I have loved Boca Grande for many years. All of the food is fresh and homemade. I LOVE the Tacos Boca Grande (chorizo-filled) and Tacos al Pastor (stuffed with yummy grilled grilled pork). The grilled lemon chicken is yummy, too. More

I have only been there once and had some take out burrito. The price was ok but the food somehow tasted so bad that I had to throw it away. More

Teriffic, stomach filling food at very affordable prices. If you're in the area, please stop by. Not the best place to sit down and enjoy your burrito...its simply too busy and there's too much going on to sit back and munch away. Take it and go is definately the thing to do here. More
