Welcome to Taberna La Boca, the new gathering spot open since September 2012. Learn more about our delicious food, check out Chef’s Blog on our la boca website.
Saturday April 20th
12 to 6pm
Tapas taste great anywhere, but there is a special delight to enjoying them under the sun or stars. We are so excited that it will soon be warm enough to take our tapas back outside that we’re throwing a party to celebrate the opening of the Taberna patio.
We invite you to join us for free samples of paella, fresh from the giant olla, all afternoon. Come by for a quick bite or stay into the night to hear the Nacha Mendez duo live on the patio.
