| - I'm writing a review after having gone twice to Boho.
The first time I went, it was still a new and secret bar, and I remember it being hard to find because I went there so late. However, the mystery of it was what made it fun! We got in with a bouncer that brought us to the back of some food place (later realized it was the express Venice MTL). My friends and I grabbed delicious drinks and we checked out the speakeasy downstairs, which we found by accident and I love how private and secluded it was. We didn't stay long because it wasn't crowded that night, but I had a good first impression of this place.
Now fast forward months later, where I went the second time for my friend's birthday at around 7:30 pm. She had called a few hours ahead to know if there was space for 10 people and they were kind enough to fit us all despite being last minute. When I got there, I noticed a lot more people than the first time I went. Walking in, I noticed how this place really sticks to their theme of tropical beach, from the wallpaper, the music, the drinks to the waiters/waitresses' outfits. The staff was nice and extremely accommodating. It's a pretty casual bar and the prices are pretty decent despite being in the Old Port. The food is the same as Venice MTL, and I had the mushroom pizza which was delicious. I must stress that the drinks are amazing, as much the first time as the second time! I had a lot of trouble deciding on which drink to get because they all sounded amazing. I finally decided on the Santa Monica which was so good, and I love the idea of a popsicle inside the drink. Throughout the night, the lights got more dim and the music got louder, which is expected for a bar on a Saturday night. However, I couldn't check out the speakeasy again since there was a private event. Although the mystery secret vibe of Boho is not there anymore, I still very much enjoyed my experience there.
I recommend to go here on any occasion and I will be back soon!
