Food is absolutely AMAZING! They just opened during the pandemic 2 yrs ago and I got a chance to meet the family who own restaurant. Incredible people with passion for service. If you're in the Albany Park/Old Irving area DEFINITELY check them out! The owners were nice enough to give me a complimentary churro with my to go order and it was EXCEPTIONAL!!! So warm and fresh! Gracias! I've ordered twice in one week! That's how good their food is and they are open late! They have karaoke, full bar, and pool table!!!

Came in late on a sleepy Wednesday night after driving in from out of town. The server was great, attentive without being overbearing, and we could tell all of the food was fresh coming out of the kitchen. The taquitos were delicious with a Honduran twist and I loved the ginger margarita with the fresh ginger incorporated. Don’t let the music in the main area turn you off - the patio was great for a more intimate dinner. Would recommend!

Amazing drinks, food and service! Their mango margaritas to die for! So glad we stumbled upon this place. The owner, Junior, was so kind and made sure we were satisfied with everything. He even gave us complimentary shots, on the house. They also had good music and a nice patio. 10/10 would recommend!

Very nice Hidden Gem. The food was solid and staff were attention and helpful. I had the chipotle bacon burger which was good. But it’s the mango ceviche that had all my attention served with homemade tortilla chips. The kitchen is open late.

Last week, I went to a baby shower which was catered by Boem. The venue was the perfect size for the event and included an in-restaurant DJ set, speakers, and colored lights. The staff was so friendly and professional, and truly made the baby shower a wonderful experience. The food was also amazing, and although Boem is known for their Mexican food, there were many pasta dishes that were delicious. Highly recommend coming here for margaritas or renting out the space for a party!

Relaxing patio, super friendly staff, and great drinks! The tacos are 2 and margaritas are 5 on Thursdays which was a huge plus. Everything was delicious.

Amazing food and drinks, plus great service! Really nice patio when the weather is nice too! I had a steak tostada Honduran style and the shrimp pasta. The empanadas and churros were delicious as well!

The entire experience was enjoyable from the very start! The menu offers traditional Honduran cuisine but also classic burgers and a kids menu for the less adventurous. The food was out to us within 20 or so minutes and they checked in on us in the meanwhile offering chips and salsa. Honestly, Boem reminds me why I enjoy going out to eat. My only complaint was having to leave eventually. The space is inviting and has room for parties or a simple meal. Either way, it's a great place for friends, family, or just a quick bite to eat and a drink! Could not recommend more highly... Thank you for a wonderful evening Boem, I will be returning!
