Bocca is a true Roman experience that stems from simplicity and richness.

We follow traditional techniques that allow our guests to embrace the culinary experience of a classic osteria Romana. We prepare our pastas, sauces and broths daily, ensuring both freshness and quality for your meal. Our kitchen staff is trained to follow proper Roman methods such as not using cream in our dishes and serving every pasta “al dente”.

We hope our advocacy for traditionalism satisfies every guest from appetizer to desert. Thank you for considering Bocca as your next meal, we look forward to serving you soon.

The best pasta on the island. Actually the whole menu is great. They ran out of meatballs last night. But all in all it was amazing.

I’ve eaten here 4 times since I’ve been in Puerto Rico. But tonight’s meal was the best I have had so far. I go to different restaurants on the island. But there is no one that makes pasta dish’s like Bocca . Hands down numero uno.

Soy de los que creo que una buena comida la hace cualquiera pero un buen servicio no! Para empezar no tenían host en la entrada el mesero no tenia tacto una de las personas que estaba con nosotros estaba viendo el menu (que por cierto muy limitado y no tenían varias cosas disponibles en el momento) cuando el mesero le sirve el vaso de agua en el medio del menu que leía un gesto desagradable el lenguaje corporal del mesón era incómodo hasta discutió con el bartender muy poco profesional mi experiencia; ahora la comida excelente e viajado en varias ocasiones a Italia y son muy poco los restantes que cocinan el estilo Italiano este es uno de ellos 👌🏻 si quieren estar a otro nivel mucho ojo con el servicio

A true authentic Italian old school restaurant. If you know about and love the Belmont Tavern in Newark NJ, you must go to Bocca.

This is one of our favorite restaurants in Puerto Rico. The food is always outstanding. The service is great and often they will accommodate one of my favorites that might not be on the menu that particular day I would recommend this restaurant I am Italian and no good food.

Second week on a row as a special request from my Mom. This time was more special... the restaurant was packed, and just two servers and the bar tender. The food was on time, hot, delicious, and the service impeccable. Kuddos to Johnson and Natasha (I am not sure if this is her name, she is new). They managed the entire place by themselves with the help of the bartender. Bocca is and will be always my favorite!! Happy New Year! Iris and Ron
