Very posh spot. Turns club-esque on a Monday night. Love the spicy margaritas. Get the guac and plantain chips. The white ceviche is tasty. Didn’t love the tacos and we tried 3 diff kinds.

There's also an extensive taco section (in addition to the tapas menu) featuring a delicious take on classic carne adada tacos, w/ cilantro, red onion, cotija, and chipotle sauce. Read more

Toca Madera is a modern organic shared plate Mexican concept featuring grain fed & free range meats, sustainable seafood and a full separate vegan menu!! Don't miss the Churro Ice cream sandwich..

The Churro Waffle are great, also had the Toca Salad and that was really good too. I recommend the Adios Felicia and Bloody Maria drinks.

The vegan mole enchiladas are excellent and filling for vegetarians. The portion is small, yet so rich that I ended up bringing home leftovers. Would recommend the side order of corn.

Great cocktails! The ambience: sexy with the dim lights, romantic and cozy but the food is a miss. The churros were hard and probably not freshly fried or need to change their method / recipe.

Interior is awesome! The courtyard is very cosy. I had the guacamole and vegan chicken with waffle and they were extremely good.

I love this place!! Vegan menu is great. Guacamole with plantain chips is delicious, so are cocktails.

The corner seats where great so guests had the options of booth type seats mixed with stand alone chairs. The drinks and food were great

Toca Madera is a beautiful, sultry space with dark wood, deep purple benches, and small tables with chain-linked legs. It's more lounge than restaurant. Read more

Good cocktails, but a total scene. Go for happy hour, but get there early if you want a seat at the bar.

Was brought a great dinner from Taco Madera. Not only was it natural, it was great considering I am on a restricted diet. Great!

The ppl in reception they are all lost they don’t know what to do, we’ve waited for our reservation more than 30 min, and l needed to remind him every 5 min so rude and careless. Food was good though.
