D Boca N Boca Opens June 9 in Summerhill Neighborhood
Georgia Avenue in Summerhill welcomes D Boca N Boca to its growing list of diverse tenants. The lively taqueria and gastropub opens Thursday, June 9.
Owner Helio Bernal’s D Boca N Boca is the permanent location of his food truck The Real Mexican Vittles, popular around town at festivals and special events. Bernal and his team will serve authentic Mexican fare along with a full bar.
D Boca N Boca’s menu is comprised of traditional Mexican dishes based on Bernal’s beloved family recipes that he has perfected over the years. The best of Mexico is represented as dishes from the Gulf regions of Veracruz and Yucatán mingle with flavors of Mexico City. Seafood dishes such as ceviche and aguachile from the Pacific Coast areas of Monterey and Sinaloa also are on the menu.
A full bar is stocked with a combination of local and Mexican beers, as well as small-batch liquors, especially tequilas and mezcals. Margaritas and cocktails with made-in-house infusions accompany the traditional Mexican fare. Dinner service is from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. Tuesday-Sunday for the first month of service.
Menu highlights include:
Huachinango: Veracruz-style roasted whole red snapper
Huitlacoche: the Mexican “truffle”
Street tacos: freshly made tortillas piled with roasted meats and homemade sauces
Ensalada: grilled baby corn, mushroom escabeche, zucchini, red peppercorn and sautéed pepitas topped with escamoles
