These days Boca is located inside the Container Bar.It has morphed from a Spanish truck to an Austin Tex-Mex truckand a pretty decent one at that.There are a lot of mediocre food trucks on Rainey Street.Making the Container Bar a good place to go if you have the munchies.Boca basically offers tacos, nachos and fries, all with stuff dumped in them or on them.I recommend the nachos because Boca does a very nice home-made chip.Their nachos have a) cherry tomatoes (thumbs up!)b) garbanzo beans (thumbs up!)c) minced fresh jalapeno rather than canned pickled jalapeno slices(thumbs up!)They pile on the toppings in industrial quantityAnd the chips are thick.So you can expect a real meal out of your boxload of nachos.The Container Bar is not strong on places to sit down while you eat -So you may want to pick a locale with better seating.Plus (and this is true of all Rainey street trucks)You are going to have to wait for your food because of the crowds.Still, if you are on Rainey Street,and you don't mind leaning on a wall or balcony while you eat ...You can do well at Boca.

Stopped by late on a Tuesday night and was starving! I love how all the bars have food trucks parked and incorporated into the bar.I ordered the Chicken and Bacon Taco, Chips and Queso and the Ground Beef Taco. My favorite was the Ground beef taco. Lots of flavor packed in the taco. It got a little messy eating but I love that! My only complaint is that I wish they put a little less seasoning (I think it was cumin) on the chips. It was a little overwhelming and messed up my taste buds. Overall, really good tacos but my taco journey through Austin led me to other just as tasty spots. Awesome customer service though!

Catching up with all my reviews for 2014. ACL weekend I came a day before the event started so we had a chance to explore Austin a bit. At night we came to Boca and Beirut. For Boca I ordered their chicken sandwich. Yes that's not the name they used but I can't remember. It's basically a chicken with bread at least. Anyhow I thought it was okay and well it was good in some sense but I think it was Beirut's fault. The chicken at Beirut was super juicy and their is something about their flavoring that made it stood out. So when I took a bite out of my sandwich it was good but it was lacking something. With that in mind I still enjoyed my sandwich. So much so I came back the next day and ordered from them again. I'm a fan. The place was just right across from the apartments we were staying at so I can't complain.Overall if you're in the area and want some Bocadilla (sp?) Then come here.

A couple of friends and I accidentally stumbled upon this lovely food truck park on Jesse st. We decided to try Boca because it looked sleek and stylish, and Spanish food sounded pretty bougie good. The menu is a bit hard to read, but the chef recommended the bucadillas so we all took turns getting different ones. Basically the bucadillas are small baguettes filled with some veggie, whatever meat that particular item comes with, and an awesome creamy sauce (similar to an aoli). The wait for food was about 15 minutes or so (with no one in the park so expect something longer otherwise) but the orders are made fresh before your eyes. The couple who owns the truck seem really nice and genuine. I really enjoyed my food here, I thought the flavors were great. There's a certain something about the combination of the creamy aoli, the fresh veggies, and the just right amount of spices that make this pretty magical.My only complaint is that the portions are quite small. Most of the bucadilla ended up being the bread and my "salad version" was measly. I think once this place gets more traffic everything will work out to hit an optimal equilibrium. I don't see myself craving this necessarily but it was a worthy eat. Definitely come check it out for yourselves.

I love the breakfast taco culture of Austin, and Boca brings something special & unique to the table.Their Spanish take on traditional favorites light up my tongue & put a smile on my face damn near every time. Definitely try the Spanish Chorizo & their pulled pork. And to top it off, the people inside this food truck are always super friendly & fun to talk to. Plus they all seem to have that irresistibly exotic Euro beauty.And fast service.And free sangria on Sundays. Yep, Boca is a winner :)

First off, FREE sangria on Saturdays (I forget the exact timing but something like 3pm - 9pm). That's what automatically sold us to come here while on a walk around the neighborhood. We went home, changed, and came right back to get on that deal.We had already eaten, so my friend and I split the El Pollito panini. We then sipped our sangria as we patiently waited for our sandwich. EL POLLITO - Pressed panini perfection. The bread was thin enough that it didn't overpower the sandwich, which I really appreciated. Good amount of rosemary chicken and mozzarella, and the spice or the aioli was perfect. It was around $9 which is fairly steep, but factor in the free sangria and it's a banging dealSANGRIA - you can keep going back for more as long as you want which is awesome. I didn't think it was very strong but my friend thought differently. No idea what is in it except for the fact it was a red wine variation and I tasted some cinnamonThis place is great, and this food truck park is great. It is hidden and tucked away so I'm glad I found it! Perfect place to come on a casual Saturday night to kick back, relax, have a good sandwich, and drink some free sangria.

Went to an event at South Austin Brewery and luckily had the opportunity to try the food at this truck. The pulled pork pressed sandwich was lovely! It had the slightest hint of cinnamon that the honey grilled onions really complemented. I'd give it 5 stars but $12 for a sandwich seems a bit steep.

I decided to order out for lunch today and saw this place on bitesquad.com.The taco was very filling as were the included toppings and "boca de pollo" sauce. Even with delivery and tip, the order was less than what I'd have spent eating downtown.This is definitely a keeper.

Truck by Truckwest stop #4 and this was very tasty. I had the pressed beef shoulder sandwich with the habanero tomato sauce and roasted peppers and it was delicious. The bread was chewy and slightly crispy and pressed on the griddle, the meat was perfectly tender, the sauce was rich, lightly spicy and robustly flavored and the peppers were a nice accompaniment. I wolfed the thing down in next to no time and enjoyed both seconds of it.I'd definitely come back.
