Boca Chica Mexican Restaurant has served the flavorful, authentic cuisine of Mexico since 1964. It was then that Guillermo and Gloria Frias opened the doors to their new restaurant that seated only 28 patrons. Today, Boca Chica has grown substantially and is rated "one of the best Mexican restaurants in the Twin Cities," according to the Minneapolis-St. Paul Magazine’s March 2018 issue.The authenticity of the food is maintained by making everything from scratch, the old-fashioned way, with fresh ingredients. Even the fiery salsa is still made with fresh tomatoes, chiles, and that special Frias family touch. Our menu includes some of the more traditional foods such as guisados, sopes, carne asada, chile rellenos, and tamales. Taste is never compromised. We also have a full bar featuring the city’s best selection of Mexican beers and premium tequilas. Voted "Best Margarita" by City Pages.

    We chose 1881 as we have dined at Lake Elmo Inn many times but were looking for a little more ‘atmosphere’ for our 43rd anniversary dinner. We both have childhood memories of the Union Depot and knowing we were never disappointed in Lake Elmo’s cuisine, we made reservations. Allison was our server and made our experience absolutely amazing. The meals were delicious and when Allison brought us our dessert, she graced us with glasses of complimentary champagne to celebrate our evening. She packed our leftovers beautifully and put in a little treat to have with them. She graciously took our picture and asked us what made our marriage last so many years. My quiet husband smiled and quickly answered, “Lots of patience and love.” Great evening, service and meals!

    My girlfriend and I went here to celebrate her birthday. I got a bacon cheeseburger, and she got a steak and potato meal. Both entrees were perfectly cooked; mine rare and her’s medium rare. The food was delicious! We sat at the bar and the woman tending bar was a delight! She was friendly, attentive, and also joked around with us. Thank you to her! The tap beer was good. I wish there was a little more variety, maybe a domestic since that is the HH special. But a good variety of craft beers. Good food, great service; we’ll be back!
