I had barria, pork, and carne asada tacos. All three were very good, but definitely do not miss the barria. The tacos came with fresh chips and a small salsa. Presentation and flavoring was very good and shows their commitment to delivering some good food. There is indoor and outdoor seating, but it is limited. Overall, I enjoyed the food very much and will be back.

I’m not even going to hold you but this is some of the best Mexican food I’ve had in South Florida. What brought me here was the Guy Fieri short on YouTube, and I’m like this is 20 min away. Myself and wifey had brisket burrito , fish tacos , chicken quesadilla , and some complimentary street corn . Everything with three alcoholic beverages came up to around $70. Do yourself a favor and head over there TODAY! Drop whatever you’re doing and go check this place out. You’re welcome in advance. Explore your city!

BEST BRISKET I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. I love this place real bad. We go together real bad. The tostadas hands down are the best things ever. The burrito fire the rice bowl fire. I don’t know what you’re doing still reading this and not hopping in the car and driving to get you some?!?! It is so good it should be illegal. They need to be open until like 2AM it would for sure be packed out all day long. Everything was amazing, the people are super sweet, quick and efficient. I love Los Bocados!

This place is a pretty great place to get tacos. I like their burritos a bit better than their tacos. The birria is good. I tried the hongo taco. It's a mushroom taco. If you like mushrooms, you will probably like it. If not, pass on that one. I like this place.

If you've never been... you gotta go! Walking in... the aroma is awesome. The entire place is spotless. You can throw a dart at the menu and you'll get a delicious dish. Everything is as fresh as possible. The bbq brisket, chicken bowl and carne asada burrito were spectacular. Bryan was the nicest guy with great recommendations as always. We strongly recommend.

Los Bocados is a true gem. The Mahi Mahi Toasted Burrito was amazing. The different layers and textures from the first bite all complimented each other. The Elote was a great addition and went great with the chips. If you like Guacamole, ask for a side of the Guacamole Relish. We were given the opportunity to sample the Beef Brisket Tostadas. The brisket had an amazing flavor. It is apparent that Los Bocabos takes pride in delivering great food. Anthony seems passionate about providing customers great food and amazing customer service as seen in how he interacts with everyone who walks through the door. Even though it's a 25 minute commute, we will definitely be back to try other menu items.
