Bocado Cafe New York Reviews
Amazing food! The gnocchi was the best I had in years and the veggie burger was so good too. They give complementary juice, mimosa, Bellini or coffee during brunch hours. They gave us the food very fast and although it’s not the cheapest place it’s worth every dollar
C.J is the best waiter that have ever served me and my friends!!! He is super kind and professional! He made this restaurant super special in the most positive way. I think he loves his work and all of our friend could see this!! I would for sure recommend him to you!! I have never met better waiter. Food was also super delicious. The waiter was taking care of us all the time and he was making sure if we feel great
Stopped in after an evening at the Guggenheim not too far away and were automatically greeted by such a warm and welcoming host. We were promptly served our pitcher of red sangria by our attentive server as he guided us through our selections of delicious bites including the Bocado fries, sea scallops, and flatbread with prosciutto.
Service was stellar. Clean bathrooms. We had a reservation for a large party we were seated and served quickly. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the lunch prefix really hit the spot. Truffle feta fries were a hit as well as the calamari. Fresh ingredients used for veggie burgers. We blindly chose this restaurant because of proximity to MET. I will definitely return and recommend others.
Went on a Sunday for early brunch. The food was phenomenal. Burger was messy and great - the raw onions could have been excluded. My cousin said the waffle was maybe the best she has ever had. A good outside crunch w a very soft interior. The latte was very frothy and full of flavor. The mimosa w fresh squeezed orange juice was superior. I would DEF come back.
Beautiful bistro type establishment on the upper east side. The staff were all incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. The brunch does come with a complimentary drink (coffee, juice, mimosa, Bellini, or Rossini), but when I ordered the coffee iced, it tasted more like cold brew than iced coffee. The pancakes are very filling!!
I enjoyed my time here! The place was full house, on a Sunday during lunch time. I had a veggie burger with salad on the side. Usually side salads are bland lettuce but this one was a level up. The veggie patty was lentil based & it was soft, tasted pretty good. They had complimentary drinks on the house too. We walked in but making a reservation couldn't hurt.
Went for Sunday brunch - group of 4. Reserved table beforehand, no wait. Brunch comes with a drink - Bellini, mimosa, orange juice, or coffee. OJ tasted fresh, pulp which I like. We spent about $35 pp. Felt on the pricier side especially waffles, pancakes for $25-27 which we did not opt for. Still, would return as a special outing with friends for good food at a convenient location with good ambiance. Pictured: crab cake burger, omelettes, eggs Benedict.
Today we ordered a dinner set, mussels, and steak and Frites. The bread was average. The mussels had good flavor, but a bit too salty. In addition, the mussels are too tiny, see photo 5. The dinner set we choose Caesar salad, Bocado burger, and Tiramisu. Everything was pretty good. The salad dressing was very nice and not overpowering. The burger patty was thick and juicy, and they were very generous with the avocado slices and cheese. The steak and frites were very good. The steak was well seasoned and very tender. The frites were nice crispy and thick. I was able to taste the slightly sweetness of the potatoes. The roasted carrots were nice, too. Tiramisu was very delicious. Overall, it was a nice meal, but spent more money than I expected.
Food 3/5 Bland. I understand that omelettes are supposed to be a certain way and I give a pass for me having to add salt but there was literally no flavor or other seasonings. I am unsure if this is some purist mentality for omelettes but I am not for it, and for $25 I was shocked by the lack of flavor. Only thing that my food had going for it was the dressing for my arugula salad and the toast with butter Service was good but felt like I was being rushed out the door when already standing putting on my coat. I’m going to start implementing a rule because a trend I have noticed with more expensive restaurants is the food is more lackluster. My theory is that restaurants that can afford to set lower prices for food is because their food is good, popular, and able to compensate with high volume and sales to make up for lower price.
