Our Story

BOCCA REINVENTED

In the spring of 2019, after over a decade of being one of New York City’s top rated Italian restaurants, Bocca underwent astonishing renovations. The transformed space is bright and modern, marked by indigo blue leather banquettes, Italian marble countertops, industrial-chic lighting, and a one of a kind painting by Italian artist Flavio Bragaloni.

The team also expanded and upgraded the bar area to make room for additional seats, with a new and imaginative cocktail menu that seamlessly complements the all-Italian wine list seldom found anywhere else.
