    We like Bocca but this experience was lacking. Server was polite but seemed unhappy. Food for table of four came out at different times. Haddock dish had several bones, and mashed potatoes were bland and cold.

    Made reservations for a high top table in the lounge. Our server, Hadley, was courteous, pleasant, and efficient. The food was very good. Chicken a la Boca, and eggplant was good and plentiful. Always good service and food

    Atmosphere excellent, service outstanding, the Italian food is okay. I guess I'm used to the dishes I get up Federal Hill in Providence. For a local Italian restaurant pretty good experience, will try again.
    BOCCAResponded on June 6, 2025
    F, Thanks for the feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the atmosphere and service; we do take pride in both. As for the food, we get it, Federal Hill sets the bar high (we love a good food road trip ourselves). That being said, we’ll keep working to win over even the most seasoned Rhode Island taste buds and are looking forward to hopefully impressing you more next time!

    Food was fantastic as always. Our service was severely slacking though. I’ve had all wonderful experiences in the past. Will definitely go back but hoping to have a better experience as we have before.
