Bocca Di Bacco

Great place to start off Sunday Funday, with $ 20 carafes of champagne and other options as well. I had the Eggs Benny, which was also good.

The food was very authentic in flavor. This location customer service was excellent. We will definitely come again.

From entering the front door, we were greeted by the hostess with a smile. Love the décor and ambiance of the bar and tables. Our waiter was phenomenal and recommended wine parings, appetizers and entrees that everyone enjoyed. This restaurant will be on our permanent NY visit list.
We ordered the bolognese, two specials and desserts and were so pleased with the taste and appearance.

We went here for dinner with a fairly large group of friends the other night. We started off with mixed drinks and a few appetizers. Everything was very good but the grilled octopus and calamari were definitely the stars of the show. Our group then ordered a variety of meat and pasta based entrées. Not only was everyone excited about their food, but we preceeded to share everything with each other immediately. The service was fast and the staff was very friendly and attentive; including the manager. I’ll definitely be coming back here in the near future.

Really loved the food, and their incredible wine list. We plan on returning for their oysters.

Went here with a large group of friends (16 ppl) to grab a bite to eat for brunch on a Sunday. The restaurant definitely had a good crowd, but wasn’t too crowded so we were able to be seated right away.
To start, they served little muffins with butter and jelly. They weren’t anything to write home about, but they were a nice little snack to whet the appetite a bit.
For my main meal, I decided to go with the carbonara. Though this carbonara lacked some of the typical ingredients – mainly peas – the flavor was quite good and the portion was a great size for the price. Furthermore, the pricing of everything on the menu seemed to be pretty reasonable. Our crew also went through countless pitchers of mimosas during the brunch and the manager was kind enough to provide a couple free ones on him.
Overall, this place is a great space to bring large groups and the food is tasty, yet affordable. After eating and drinking, it came out to about $ 30 per person, which is a steal in NYC.

WASTE OF MONEY! 1 star is too generous! I have no idea how in the world someone can screw up such simple dishes. I just ordered the Brussel sprouts and the French Onion Soup. BOTH WERE DISGUSTING!!! Nasty!!! Just don’t do it. I’m not even sure how they cooked these Brussel sprouts but they are going straight in the garbage! I make better ones in my home simply by actually CUTTING OFF THE STEMS YOU IDIOTS WORKING THERE!!! The French Onion Soup if that is what you would call it was repulsive! I’ve had better soup from a can. Overall I will never order from here again. JUST AWFUL!!!

Really enjoyed it here. Sat at the bar near the door which was nice and airy, had a wonderful cocktail, they have a very nice selection. We also had oysters and clams for $ 1 each which were fresh and delicious. The 2 bartenders were very nice and polite as was the maitre d.
I like the way it is decorated and the entire atmosphere. I looked at the menu they have wonderful food choices. Next time will definitely eat.

Waited at the bar for the rest of my party to arrive and had a deliciously refreshing Moscow mule.
When seated, ordered apps of charred grilled octopus, crispy calamari with red sauce on the side, assorted cheese plate, and pot of garlicky white wine mussels. All were quite tasty!
The entrees we ordered; dry aged prime rib, lamb shank that fell off the bone, chicken Milanese, black ink pasta, and a nice slab of Chilean sea bass, which were all off the charts, made everyone at our table happy.
After we were full from all those apps and entrees, Desserts were still somehow all eaten and I think a crumb or two were left on plates.
Nice attentive service.
Wine list has good range of moderate priced to high end.

Fried calamari, hot antipasto, good bread, decent pasta dishes and respectable cocktails
for after-​theater munchies. The other one uptown is too loud and has a weird energy to it,
like being abducted and trapped in «Medievil Times». This one is reliable and has good service with a noise level approaching sanity. Its a good back-​up plan to B-​Side when they are too crowded and wait is too long.

One of my absolute favorite restaurants in Hell’s Kitchen. The hanger steak HERE IS A MUST GET even though it’s an Italian place. All of the pasta dishes are amazing, the cocktails are delicious and the atmosphere is lively. Great for a dinner with a few friends or a drink at the bar.

We unexpectedly stepped in here after a unexpected quick poor experience from a previous restaurant and it was a great spot! We sat at the bar to enjoy some bevs and browse the food menu. The bartender was awesome and his drinks were delicious. I ordered my stoli razz Cosmos and my bf ordered his old fashions and they both were tasty. We ordered their 4 cheese chefs choice plate that was served with fig jam, Honey and grapes. The fig jam was some of the best I’ve ever had. The bartender even brought out a 2^nd helping bc it was so yummy.
The atmosphere was very intimate casual. The staff was on top of things. They have an extensive wine menu but only 1 beer, Peroni on draught. They don’t have a street sign over their door and it’s dark inside so definitely Google their location before heading there

We came here as a party of 7 for my boyfriends birthday last Saturday night. First things first, I must comment on the hostesses and their accommodations! We needed to reschedule the reservation a few times because we were seeing the Villanova game at MSG that evening before dinner — every person I spoke to on the phone was incredibly polite and gracious, over the top actually, and let me just say that makes such a difference and was truly a pleasant surprise. Even more so when we arrived at 830 to see the placed packed to the brim with guests! I highly recommend a reservation for weekends here. The ambiance is cozy and very Italian, I loved it.
We arrived and were seated at our table within 5 minutes. Our waters were filled and drink orders taken, and the waiter was very friendly. They have a wonderful Italian wine list, and their cocktails were pretty awesome as well (my gf’s drink had red pepper flakes on top!)
For appetizers we ordered the arancini, mushroom bruschetta, fried calamari, and meatballs. Well, those plates were licked clean. The arancini were so cheesy and delicious and they tied as my favorite with the bruschetta. The meatballs were hearty and the marinara was amazing too.
For the main event, I ordered the fusilli with sausage in a pink cream sauce which was phenomenal, i highly recommend it. The sausage especially made the dish. Other honorable mentions included the bolognese which was SO good, as well as the seafood squid ink pasta. Other at the table got different varieties of fish and everything was really just top notch and filling. We had plenty of leftovers as the portions were large, and prices weren’t bad either.
For dessert we shared the cheesecake, which came with both a raspberry and peach sauce on the side — it was very very light and fluffy, not dense at all which made it a nice ending to the meal. Overall, I can’t wait to get back here and would highly recommend it for anyone! It’s a bit loud and crowded, so plan for that, but it’s amazing.

Awesome spot if you’re craving some delish Italian food. Made a reservation here for a Friday night and was seated right away. Our waiter was friendly and sweet– although hard to understand with that *genuine* Italian accent. Picked a random bottle of red from the extensive wine list and it was amazing! As was the burrata and prosciutto appetizer. I ordered from the specials menu for my meal– the rizzoto. I was not thrilled with it but after tasting other people’s dishes I think I just ordered wrong.
I knocked off one star because the tables are SO. G.D. CLOSE together. I was practically touching heads with the person seated behind me, and they were loud AF, it was hard for me to participate in my own table’s conversation. Separation is key.

Awesome restaurant hidden in the city! The atmosphere was great, friendly service and the food was amazing.

Wine selection is impressive
The food was perfectly seasoned
I had the pasta in meat sauce, probably the best I have ever had out
The short rib my colleague had was insanely delicious
The meatball appetizer was so good
The sauce was so tasty and almost sweet and the meat was cooked perfect
The Cesar salad never wows me anywhere
I’m a snob it was good not great
The dessert was heavenly
I had the cream puffs with ice cream
Best ice cream ever

I came here with my boyfriend’s family for a Cousins’ Brunch. I’m a big penne fan, and ordered the penne zuchinin and onion. The portion was very very small for the price. Not satisfying at all for my 112 lb self! A few of my other friends got pasta dishes which were small in serving as well.
My boyfriend got the chicken paillard which kind of resembles a chicken wrap– he said it was actually very good.

So I ended up coming here with my boyfriend and his family. We had originally wanted to go to either Tony’s or Carmine’s but both places had really long waits. So we walked around for a while and came across this place. The main reason we stopped was because there was no wait for 7 people. But we ended up being pleasantly surprised!
The atmosphere was a little dark and loud. When we first walked in, the music was really loud and it almost seemed like house music was playing. kinda weird for in upscale Italian restaurant. But after a few songs it changed to more calm, soothing music. The restaurant in general was very dark so kind of hard to see the menus but maybe different during the day or under set rain lighting.
The service was ok. We asked or waiter a few questions and he didn’t seem too enthused to answer them. He forgot a few things but maybe the manager or owner (not sure who) apologized and all in all it wasn’t a huge deal.
The food on the other hand was awesome! What I really liked about the food was the serving size. At Italian restaurants we all tend to indulge not only because it’s delicious but also because the servings are HUGE. And then don’t end up saving room for dessert or feel like we’re waddling out! But the servings here are perfect. Not too big, but not too small. I felt so content after eating my meal and had just enough room for some dessert.
I got the Tortelli Ricotta E Spinaci. Heaven in my mouth! So creamy but light at the same time. And it had just enough of veggies to taste somewhat healthy! Everyone else really enjoyed their meals as well and agin they were all just the right sizes. We ordered some desserts: cheesecake, chocolate cake, and tiramisu. They were great, the chocolate cake was moist and chocolatey, the cheese cake was actually very light for a cheesecake which was great, and the tiramisu was rich and flavorful!
There are so many great restaurants in the city and I’m glad I got around to trying this one out!

I don’t give out 5 star reviews very often and while I consider myself a foodie, I knew my expectations were going to be higher in the Big Apple than at home. We ended up here after taking a tour where the guide suggested finding a place in Hell’s Kitchen. We were struggling, nothing looked appealing and there weren’t many people in most of the places even at 9 p.m. This place seemed to be jamming and the menu looked great so we wandered in. We are soooo glad we did.
Between my teenage daughter and I we had the fava bean soup, the mussels and the fettuccine special of the day. (Plus a glass of Pinot Grigio, total bill only $ 68 before tip).
Bread and bruschetta spread were spectacular. The soup had so many layers of flavor and was served piping hot but obviously not microwaved, where you sometimes find hot spot throughout. It was perfect. I was full probably about 20 bites before I stopped eating because everything was so awesome I just couldn’t stop. Service was spot on.
We were too full too eat dessert and I’m still disappointed we didn’t take something to go. I’m quite sure it would have been every bit as awesome as everything else. I’m glad I don’t live closer… I’d weigh 400 pounds in no time flat.

I haven’t met a place in NYC that I haven’t liked. This place has been added to a list of one of the favorites. They need to get a better sign to put somewhere outside… lol because we stood outside the day we came looking at google map trying to find it.
Anyways, the food was amazing!!! We got probably like 6 different appz. We had the meat and cheese platter which was very good.
The staff was amazing and professional even with 5 loud girls out of which one was a bit drunky drunk.

Vraiment sympa, un restaurant hype dans le quartier alternatif de Hells kitchen. On a trouvé que le chef avait parfaitement bien revisite les plats italiens avec des saveurs identiques mais une présentation extrêmement moderne. Super musique, super deco, a deux pas de timesquare mais une ambiance parfaitement différente — à refaire !

Sur recommandation de notre hôtel situé non loin, nous sommes venus deux fois dans la semaine. Le cadre est agréable. Que peut-​on trouver à dire à un restaurant italien dont les murs sont «tapissés» de bouteilles ?
La carte est appétissante, difficile de choisir.
Après avoir partagé une assiette de San Daniele et une bruschetta, nous avons bien apprécié l’osso bucco et son risotto, mais également le filet de bœuf et ses pommes sautées façon planche du boucher, ou encore le risotto aux champignons et parmesan parfumé à la truffe…
Question vin, le choix est large, notamment en vins italiens. Le montepulciano était parfait, bien fruité.
Conclusion: courrez-​y sans hésitation !
