Noisy but pretty

At Boca Chica you will get well-cooked food; however, it won't actually be true Brazilian, but true Carribean. You will pay an average of $10.00 to 15.00 for a huge plate of food. Accompaning fish or meat are some hefty side dishes such as white rice, black beans, yucca, radish, tomato, and green pepper salad, or plaintains cooked a variety of different ways. As for the ambience, it is quaint, a dimly-lit hip place, but it is loud. You have to scream in order to hold a conversation. Lastly, the drinks are pricy but are compensated by being strong, so be careful.
Pros: strong drinks, big plates, good service
Cons: loud
