  • 🇨🇴 Boca2 – Spicy Bites, Industrial Nights

    Colombian comfort food with urban edge.


    7130 Buford Hwy NE, Suite B110, Doraville, GA 30340, in the Global Forum Shopping Center.

    BOCA2 IS FORKED UP! This isn’t your taco joint mislabeling itself. It’s Colombian. It’s bold. It’s got more attitude than an empanada wearing sunglasses indoors.

    Small shop vibe in the Global Forum Center? Ya, Maybe. But don’t mistake compact for timid—it’s a flavor juggernaut disguised in denim and neon. TVs pump dance beats, the décor flexes with industrial grace, and you walk in smelling greatness.

    The Crowd? A swirl of weekend warriors, families, and anyone craving that savory hug Colombian food gives. No velvet ropes here—just open arms, dancing sounds, and hot eats. The room’s alive—beautiful Colombian women, locals who know the secrets, and anyone craving heat and flavor.


    The Bite

    Every dish is a mini Colombian revolution—arepas bursting with chorizo or pork belly, burgers stuffed with eggs and sweet plantains, and salchipapas piled like altars of joy. Each flavor hits your tongue and whispers, “Remember this.” Postmates


    Service Swagger

    Staff are smooth operators—quick, clean, and flexible even when the post–dance-floor rush hits. Order accuracy dips sometimes, but that’s a horrible rumor.


    Forked Up Tip

    Come early or clutch your place in line—on weekends especially, Boca2 becomes the hotspot. It’s the place to be after thinking you’re done eating.

    There’s another one in Smyrna. I didn’t go there. I’m sure it’s fine.

    You walk in and its giving “cafeteria with a bar” vibes; it’s everyone’s spot—Black, white, Latino, rich, poor—no velvet ropes, just people chasing satisfaction in a tortilla wrap. Tacos La Villa isn’t trying to be anything it’s not—this is a kingdom built on flavor, not hype.

    The service is the good kind. Sweetest bartender making stylish drinks and a no-nonsense mama at the register. We know who really runs this place.

    There’s a Queen in Smyrna, and her throne is a tortilla. The Queen Burrito earns its crown without a food stylist, without a PR team, and without your permission.

    The burrito was so good I wanted to keep eating it after I was full. That’s not hunger—that’s devotion. Look at it.

    No, really, look at it. I’ll wait.

    Are you devoted? No prenup. Do you take this burrito to have and to hold because you can’t finish it?

    That last bite will mock you on the way home. “You didn’t eat me…”

    The cheese is melting into the tortilla like it signed a long-term lease.

    The queso? Queso Amazo. The quesoiest queso this side of your abuela’s kitchen, where recipes are whispered, not written down.

    The salsas? Smokey. The kind of smokey that doesn’t just hit your tongue—it goes straight to the stomach’s heart.

    And yes, the margarita…was gorgeous-delicious, I ordered another without shame. Uno más, bartender. Las Bartenda?-hm…

    Forkability – Ritual.

    Mood Sauce – Warm, unpretentious, everybody’s welcome.

    Bite Energy – Smokey heat wrapped in a tortilla hug, while being rocked to savory lullabies of angelic flavors.

    Staff Swagger – “Chill Pros”

    Damage Control – $10–20, worth it twice over.
