Owners Chip and Joe Sweet encourage you to select from their wide range of share-able, Asian-inspired recipes. The food doesn't contain cannabis, but they are named with weed slang and terminology. The lighting and design of the restaurant is extremely relaxing and creates a laid-back vibe.

Their first location opened up at 123 Mohawk Street in Herkimer, in between Yetty's Pizza and VFW Post 4915. TokaBocca has seen so much success, they've decided to expand even farther into Upstate, New York.

Toka Bocca 2 - Old Forge

The new restaurant is preparing to open up at 3067 State Route 28, formerly where Keen Kitchen was located. The Sweet's have spent a lot of time up north, so they knew they needed to bring their "food, bougie drinks, and good vibes" to Main Street.

The grand opening is set for June 2023 and they are beyond excited. The owners want to thank the entire Herkimer community for their unwavering support of their "quirky" restaurant.

Old Forge I hope that you are ready to eat and have fun! Let's get lit!

We will provide an update once the official opening date has been announced.
