Second time here. Probably won’t be coming back mainly because of the service
It was out wedding anniversary and service alone can kinda put a damper on special events
Nonetheless we ignored that and had a great time

Any amazing dining experience!
I had an absolutely wonderful time at [Toca Vez]. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Every dish i ordered was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor — especially the [chilli sea bass]. The portions were generous, and everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Very confused about this place. Dinner on Friday night as expected, however, when sitting in the dining room it gets extremely loud with the open kitchen environment and blasting reggaeton thru the speakers that I was getting club vibes instead of dinner environment. It was hard to hold a conversation and I found myself screaming on the table to talk during dinner. Service could improve, my setting for entree was a fork and knife on the right side of the plate, incorrect. The lobster quesadilla app was 98% cheese. 2% lobster. Tacos were just ok. I could really have the same quality of apps at applebees and be just fine. I came with excitement, but left dissapointed.

Overall, this restaurant is a solid 4 star. However, I wouldn't run back. Service is very good. You get what you pay for but in the end, it's elevated Mexican food that's overpriced.

Horrible experience. We were so excited to celebrate a birthday there and ultimately the dinner was inedible. A strip steak was ordered because we knew the restaurant was known for their steaks. When asking for medium it came out raw, which we were totally okay with sending back. We had to send it back two more times because it continuously came back raw. Even after slicing the meat and re-heating it they brought it back to us raw again which was the final straw and we ultimately declined and didn't want to eat it. The waitress told us to flip the pieces on their side so they could continue to cook on the plate. In addition, the tacos were not good and were difficult to eat because they were falling apart. I gave a two stars because they were gracious with comping the steak and giving free desserts/ drinks but the raw steak really ruined the night.

Outstanding food and atmosphere. My steak was one of the best I’ve had in a long time and the chips and guacamole were fantastic

Great place for a date night or special occasion. We came here recently to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Food was amazing and so was the service. Steak was cooked to perfection and Mac and cheese was 10/10. One of the things this restaurant stood out to us was they gave us complimentary champagne for our special night. We also liked how they boxed our food to go and gave us a number tag to pick up in the front when we were ready to leave. That small little detail went a long way and we did not feel rushed. The drinks were strong and delicious, the music and vibe was on point. Will be returning soon!

This is a long one, but for so many good reasons.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Toca Vez in Basking Ridge!

After what felt like an impossibly long, stressful and difficult day, we walked in exhausted and drained. We just wanted good steak. To make matters worse, we were embarrassingly late for our early reservation on a bustling Saturday evening. And yet, the team at Toca Vez could not have been more gracious. With understanding smiles and zero judgment, they managed to seat us long after our original time, a kindness I will not soon forget.

From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere itself began to work its magic. It was equal parts stylish and cozy-comfort, like an elegant dinner party thrown in your living room. This balance of bougie flair and warm familial coziness is rare, but Toca Vez pulls it off beautifully.

The food was nothing short of fantastic. We dove into crisp tortilla chips with creamy queso, a perfectly cooked steak, lush creamed spinach, a bright fresh salad, silky mashed potatoes, and finally, an indulgent hot cookie crowned with melting ice cream. Every bite was deeply satisfying. The entire meal hit the spot and then some.

But what made the evening truly special was the hospitality. Noticing how much the day had weighed on us, in our frumpy tshirts, we were surprised with a complimentary cocktail humorously dubbed the OJ Simpson and served with humor and warmth. That small act of generosity was the perfect reminder of why hospitality matters just as much as the food. All the servers were lovely, genuinely friendly and attentive. Every single table was full with happy, satiated folks out on the town Saturday night. Celebrating, cheerful and having a lovely evening.

Did I mention the complimentary valet? From start to finish, Toca Vez made everything feel effortless. Whether you come here to celebrate, reconnect, or simply recover from a hard day, this is the place that will lift you up and leave you smiling. Just go.

Come hungry. Leave happy. Return often. Thanks Toca Vez team for a great night!

See you again very soon!

My husband and I absolutely love it here! The atmosphere is beautiful and sexy. . Amazing drinks and unique spin on a steak house which sets it apart from the same old type of food we have around here. We’ve been here many times and will continue to visit. You have to try it!

I had heard from a number of people about Toca Vez and it did not disappoint! Very friendly and helpful staff. The blue cheese crusted NY strip steak was one of the best steaks I have ever had. My wife had the pork chop in maple glaze which was amazing. The inside had a cool ambience and decor. Highly recommend and will definitely be going back soon.
