"The bright, sunny look of the room is reflected in the extensive menu which careers joyfully around the Mediterranean, offering something for everyone – be sure to bring some friends so you can order with abandon. The Spanish dishes particularly stand out, such as the good-looking green herb gazpacho – the perfect refresher on a hot day." - Michelin Inspector

How to Minimise Food Waste at Home, According to MICHELIN Green Star Restaurant Chefs

"Celebrating the flavours of the Mediterranean in a sustainable way, Green Star restaurant, Boca, dedicates itself to championing local produce as much as possible, reporting on their carbon emissions, incorporating renewable energy throughout the eatery, and proactively ensuring they reduce their food waste. Chef Patricia Roig believes that superficially throwing away ingredients contributes to the increase of energy needed in food production factories and waste facilities, which in turn has a big impact on the planet. 'There are so many ingredients that we buy and, without touching, we throw away just because are ugly, expired or simply wilted. But are they really inedible?' she challenges." - Kelly Sadek

I had an incredible experience with the 11-course Mastercard tasting menu truly one of the most memorable dining experiences I’ve had. The setting felt intimate and thoughtfully curated, which made the entire journey feel personal and immersive. Every course showcased bold experimentation with flavours while still feeling perfectly balanced and refined. The menu offered an exceptional range of dishes across meat, seafood and vegetables, each highlighting top-quality ingredients and creative techniques. From delicate starters to deeply comforting mains, every plate felt intentional and beautifully executed. The Kingfish Ceviche was a standout and unlike anything I’ve tried before. The Arabian Gulf–inspired coconut tiger’s milk was incredibly rich and silky, complementing the freshness of the kingfish perfectly truly an out-of-the-box dish done to perfection. Other highlights included the tender beef cheek with its deep red wine glaze, the comforting yet elevated grilled cod and the playful twists on traditional Spanish flavours like the patatas bravas and shrimp fritters. Each course surprised me in the best way. The finale, the Camel Milk Flan, was the perfect ending smooth, delicate and uniquely local, paired beautifully with vanilla and dulce de leche ice cream. It was both comforting and elegant, leaving a lasting impression. Overall, this tasting menu felt like a celebration of flavour, creativity and craftsmanship. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a refined, experiential dining journey that showcases the best of innovative cuisine.

Chef Patricia has given the menu at Boca a clear and confident identity, one rooted in flavor, intention, and a deep respect for the ingredients. Every dish was beautifully presented and thoughtfully executed. What truly set the experience apart was the team’s attentiveness and creativity: upon hearing that one of our guests didn’t eat seafood but was craving a paella, they went above and beyond to prepare an off-menu version tailored perfectly to our needs. That level of care is rare and truly appreciated. The wine selection is simply unheard of in Dubai, and incredibly well curated by their sommelier Shiv. Boca’s commitment to sustainability isn’t just a concept, you can truly feel it in every aspect of the restaurant, from the menu to the service philosophy. Gracias and well done team! Highly recommended!

BOCA is easily the best Spanish food I've had in Dubai! The atmosphere is awesome and the dishes had enough of a twist to makes them interesting whilst not losing what makes them authentic, Spanish classics.

We ended up making a last minute reservation with not being sure what to expect. Boca blew both mine and my friends mind with the balance of flavors on their tasting menu. It was a little intimidating at first when you see the concoction but it all blended well and the portion sizes being perfect, still a bit too much for me as a smaller guy. The staff of course made the experience wonderful by explaining in detail what the dishes were and where the ingredients were sourced from. Overall, we spent a great evening and a special thanks to Franz for taking care of us!

Had an incredible dinner at BOCA today. Everything from the food and service to the attention to detail was absolutely spot on. The quality of the dishes, the unexpected yet balanced flavour combinations, and the generous portions truly stood out. Easily one of the best meals I’ve had in Dubai in a long time.

The location is fantastic and the outdoor area is beautiful – very relaxed and elegant. We visited for the Business Lunch, and it exceeded our expectations. We had the Lamb Shoulder and Lamb Cheeks, and both dishes were outstanding. The meat was perfectly cooked, incredibly tender, and full of flavor. We also had the Tiger Prawns, which were excellent as well – beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. For a business lunch, the quality was impressively high and felt more like fine dining. Although we didn’t have tapas this time, the tapas selection on the menu looks very appealing and is something we will definitely try on our next visit. What truly made the experience exceptional was the service. Our server, Anusha, was absolutely fantastic – warm, attentive, professional, and genuinely caring. She made us feel very welcome and ensured everything was perfect throughout the meal. Service like this truly elevates the entire dining experience. Highly recommended. We will definitely be back

I have been visiting Boca for more than 5 years now, and every time I return, I’m truly impressed by the outstanding quality of the food and the exceptional attention from the team. The consistency in flavors, presentation, and service is remarkable, and it always feels like a special experience. Boca has become one of my favorite places in Dubai, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for memorable dining with top-class hospitality.
