Hocca - Orlando

Fantastic Brazilian food restaurant, the shrimp pastel and the codfish fritters are phenomenal! The drinks are also very tasty and well served.

Wish I would have been here before! From the moment we got there the staff was nothing but great. The servers were very attentive and constantly were walking around making sure we had everything we wanted and needed. From order to the plate hit the table was ok considering that we ordered steak. We ordered a Mr picanha with a side of rice, beans, fries, fried yuca and fried egg. The steak was seasoned and cook perfectly. The way it came out it kept all the juice contained. It was serried covered in onion and with garlic pieces. We definitely cleaned that plate out even the garlic was grilled to perfection. The rice was good just needed some salt but that is just our preference. We did order a kids chicken plate and that I felt was a bit of waste. It was very small and price was not worth it looked like not even half a chicken breast cut up. It was served in a plastic plate that looked like it came from IKEA with previous cut marks on it. Not ideal for preventing plastic on food. We enjoyed the Brazilian lemonade a lot and even got more than one. The place his really high roof and it is not that big. Making the noice echo a lot maybe some sound mat's would do it good. Was very loud and my chair was touching the person behind me. Very cramped. To me that was the lost of star. Well that and the horrible kids plate.

The delectable picanha, with its remarkable texture and flavor, has made it a repeat customer favorite of ours.

Great service! At the end of the meal, Chef Gabriel even came over to check in. However, the food was lacking. Codfish pastels- delicious and piping hot! I wish there were no olives, but these were goodFried pork- PASS! Way overcooked and little meat. My jaws hurt from chewing on these.Picanha- overcooked (I ordered medium and got well done) and a bit under seasoned Rice and beans- the best part of the meal in my opinion A nicer option for a meal after a shopping day at the mall, but the food wasn't great on this day.

Cool Brazilian food ! Finger food and others . Best Pastel and coxinhas in town . Little pricier . Parking lot easy to access from the mall . I would like to try the feijoada !!

Great Brazilian food and friendly service. We had the cod and shrimp pasteis and parmigiana filet. Everything excellent

EPIC dishes at Hocca!Connected to the Florida Mall-- this Brazilian restaurant serves you up some of Brazil's most notable food & drinks, made to leave a lasting impression. FAMOUS Empandas/Pastels the size of your head & LEGENDARY bolinho de bacalhau/codfish croquette.

Tonight gave a 3 stars because we had much more oil than usually. Would give 3.5 but not possible. The atmosphere it's nice and employees awesome, maybe was just today, as the left time everything was amazing. Will return for sure

Dine in | Lunch | $30-50This hidden treasure is a must go if you are looking for good Brazilian food. Friendly staff amazing menu... their mojito you can't go wrong with that .

We decided to try this place on a whim; we wanted burgers and the reviews of the restaurant claimed they were great. We drove well out of our way to try this place out - on Google there are 4.7 stars with over a thousand reviews? Sounded great. When we arrived - on a Saturday night, there was hardly anyone else in the whole restaurant. Not a great sign, but maybe just a slow night. The lights were on full blast - very cool white fluorescents, which made it feel more like a cafeteria than a restaurant. I think the lights bothered us more than anything else, aesthetically. Not much going on in there either in terms of ambiance. We checked the reviews again and noticed that all the decent ones had been a few weeks or months ago, many were years old. Uh oh. We ordered burgers and empanadas; the empanadas came out quickly, were very hot and fairly good. The burgers, however....oh boy. Stay away. The consistency was very heavy; I felt like I was eating a tightly compacted meatball more than an actual burger. The meat blend they were using is picanha, which I've had before, and it was not like this. It was oozing with cheese and sauce, which was its only saving grace. At a price point of nearly $18, I felt immediate regret. Having to drown out the taste of a very mediocre burger with sauce is not what you want when you pay EIGHTEEN DOLLARS. You know when you try to take home leftover fries and reheat them? That's what the fries we were given tasted like. They were dry, stale, not at all hot or fresh, and had very clearly been microwaved. It actually grossed me out to think about what else we might have been served. My advice would be to check out one of the other spots in the area. A dinner for two, with one app and two entrees that costs $70 should actually be mostly edible.
