Nice Italian restaurant just outside the Hall of Fame area. The local dish is a chicken and pasta dish called chicken riggies, and I was told by a local bartender that Bocca's we the best locally. The chicken riggies didn't disappoint, but stay with the Italian dishes here. My companion's veal Oscar special was average at best.

The food at Boca is VERY good..especially the house special salad and the thin crust pizzas. However the metal chairs combined with the marble tables create a noises atmosphere...nothing to absorb the noise...really hard to hold a conversation when it's crowded. Hang a few textiles on the wall or put baffles on the ceiling!

What a delightful find. My daughter and I visited in March and came to Bocca because it was close to our hotel. Food was very tasty, service was excellent. We liked it so much, that we returned the following night, and our server remembered what my daughter had and exactly how she wanted it, and was able to duplicate it... More

Food is good as is the atmosphere, except the steel chairs. I'm a thin person and had trouble fitting my butt in the chair so I feel for those with larger "accessories". The food is good but overly creative. We had the Crustini appetizer which had too many ingredients combined and the protein (steak) was rare and cold which didn't... More

Service was great, food wasn't bad, my dish was a tad salty and companions a bit on the overly hot side,

We had the pasta sampler and it was great. However, one of our samples was of their pasta carbonara and the taste of roasted garlic overwhelmed it, but the gnocci and buccatini were awesome... Also the calamari appetizer is AWESOME. It may not be on the menu, so ask for it!

We had a great meal here, salads and pizza. The service was very slow though the meal made up for it.

Our group of 8 were visiting Cooperstown April 6 weekend. We had reservations at the Bocca Osteria. The gnocci was out of this world! We each had pasta dishes that night and everyone loved their dishes. We even went back the next day before leaving the area and had their pizzas; the one with the potatoe in it was out... More

From the atmosphere to the exquisite food, this hometown restaurant had the best homemade pasta and brick oven pizza that I've ever had. I called my family in PA to tell them all about it and it would be well worth the 4 1/2 hour trip back to have it again. :)

Bocca Osteria was a fantastic way for our group to end our day in Cooperstown! The staff was knowledgeable and did a great job of answering our questions about their menu and their beautiful 6000 pound pizza oven! The food was great!
