    the chicken marsala was not as good as it was a few months back. The tortellini with chicken serving size gets smaller each time, Very unfortunalty a dish that costs $24 should be plentifull especially pasta which is inexpensive to begin with.

    Hello Robert, Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear that you were impressed with the restoration and the mural. But I'm assuming this review was meant for our sister restaurant, SOCO Tavern. It's great to know that you appreciated the mural and felt the overall value. We strive to create a memorable experience for our guests and your feedback is a testament to our efforts. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Best regards, BOCCA & SOCO Tavern Team
