- SSilasGreater Boston •13 reviews5.0Dined on Mar 22, 2025Cocktail Garden and Kitchen is hands down one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Worcester. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed into an atmosphere that’s warm, stylish, and full of personality—just like the owners, Diogo and TIBES, who are truly the heart and soul of this gem. The food? Absolutely unforgettable. Every dish is crafted with creativity and love. The fried yuca was perfectly crisp, the baked cheese dip rich and comforting, and the meatballs in tomato sauce were packed with flavor. The dessert—oh my!—was both stunning and delicious, with tropical flavors and a presentation worthy of a magazine cover. And let’s not forget the cocktails, especially the espresso martini, which was smooth and indulgent. Diogo and TIBES make the experience feel personal, like you’re a guest in their home. Their attention to detail and genuine hospitality elevate this place from great to spectacular. If you’re looking for an incredible meal, a vibrant vibe, and hosts who treat you like family, Cocktail Garden and Kitchen is it. Can’t wait to come back!More infoCocktail Garden & KitchenPrice: Expensive• Tapas / Small Plates• Worcester•3.5
