Boveda - Menu

if you are looking for a quick casual latin food fix, Boveda provides some basics you will be familiar with. Reasonable prices and happy hours during the week.

It was dead on a Monday albeit. There didn't seem to be any waiters/waitresses so we sat at the bar. While the bar was also dead, didn't really get the attention from the bartender that we desired. He was dealing with a weird customer, but still. Waited around a bit for a couple of drinks.

I really enjoy the food and the selections available. The bar is always a great place to sit for some good conversation with the other patrons or bartender. Tj recommended a few meals and drinks that were excellent. He should eat a little more of the food there since he looks so skinny and tall but his customer services was superb. I will definitely eat and drink there again. View menu

When we arrived in boveda, they told us we had no reservations, although I showed them the open confirmation. the restaurant was empty and the waiter told us that we only have one place. we sat down that he didn't offer an apology and the restaurant didn't seem to fit well so we left. my man and I never went out of a restaurant, but boveda just didn't feel like a good culinary experience.

very uneven experience. the menu had sorte. the food was brought out irregularly, so the first in our party had their food in full minutes before the last group in our party. the waiter gave us the leak without checking whether someone wanted coffee or dessert what we did. also he said he could not confirm the parking lot, although the website said they did. we were not rushed (other than the control thing) and eating was good._

the decor is quite neat. Although is a tapas restaurant, most of the food is not Spanish. It is a mix between Mexican food in tapas or entrees Manchego cheese (probably the only Spanish item). The food was good. Service was slow as written by others. If you are in no rush, just want to socialize and drink with occasional movement of food, then is ok. I would recommend to order your drinks and first round of tapas so you are not left waiting. BTW, the place was empty when we were there... View menu

my friend and I decided to visit dc again and because of boveda, our trip has much more fun. we loved how nice and friendly the manager and the waiter were assigned to us. our reservation was on and our table was ready to go. we stayed even until closing times because it felt easy to sit there and have one of the best margarita drinks we had. we enjoyed it so much that we came back the next night. the manager allowed us to sit on the same stand and even offered us to try a new sangria he had made and it was just another delicious drink! we visit boveda on our next trip and plan to bring more people with us!

The guacamole was delicious and the Ceviche was different in that it was served in large chunks on flat puffy tortilla shell. They were very good but overall I found the menu disappointing. I was expecting more then traditional Mexican fair with a description of modern takes on pan-Latin small plates, entrees drinks in rustic-chic digs The queso fundito was disappointing in that it seemed like Velveta melted and the salsa was a jarred salsa. Some fresh pico would have been nice instead and add some flare to the menu. The interior was attractive enough but overall vibe was almost sad as it was so empty on a Saturday night at

Our dinner at Boveda was fine until it was time to pay. We were a party of and expected the normal gratuity to be added to the bill. However, the manager brought over the bill and asked us whether we'd like the gratuity to be either or We found this completely off-putting. Then, when we received the bill it was very confusing--it looked like the gratuity was added twice so we had to ask the manager for an explanation for that. Finally, we were a party of and spent over and noticed that they had the nerve to charge us for extra orders of chips to go with our guacamole and queso. We had only asked once for more chips, which they didn't bring, so we asked again. We did not get orders, only orde... View menu
