Boqueria Restaurants

The culture at Boqueria is driven by a set of core values that empower employees to leave their egos at the door, embracing rigor, collaboration, and an entrepreneurial spirit. Boqueria enjoys an industry leading retention rate and is committed to providing opportunities for advancement at all levels. Our employees also enjoy the learning opportunities the unique food and beverage training programs provide. Founded in 2006, Boqueria is an homage to founder Yann de Rochefort's childhood summers spent exploring Barcelona's local food markets. To bring to life his vision, Yann partnered with Spanish Chefs including Marc Vidal to develop a menu that marries classic Spanish dishes with seasonal, local market ingredients. Fourteen years later, Boqueria has become an institution, with locations across Washington D.C., Manhattan, and Chicago. Each location is a unique reflection of Yann's passion for Spain and architectural design.
