Dynamic menu of original Southern Italian cuisine that dominates this welcome addition to Hell’s Kitchen. This addition is made even more welcome with the breathtaking beautiful transformation of a once historic space into a hip, fun, stop for dinner that any gourmand will savor.


Formerly, known as Film Center Cafe, Bocca Di Bacco boasts Italian cuisine from Puglia, Sicily, and Sardegna with the endless selection of wines from small vineyards in Italy. Exemplifying our policy of being “Farm to Table” operated, we use the healthiest ingredients from locally grown vendors. Located in the heart of the Theater District, this new modernized restaurant features innovative new recipes and the use of the Enomatic Wine Systems.

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Bocca Di Bacco in the Theatre District is a beloved spot for pre-theater dining. Patrons rave about its "fantastic food" and "excellent service." The ambiance is "festive," with a great selection of dishes like Branzino and lasagna. Although busy, especially during peak times, it remains a "favorite" for many.

    Great food, good service, but it seems they had trouble honoring reservations - groups who had reserved ended up leaving out of frustration.

    Horrible food and totally underwhelming they overcooked the food and the sea bass was very fishy. So not a good food experience.

    Restaurant was empty but we got a tiny table that could barely fit the wine bucket and appetizer plates. They wouldn't do a substitution that they used to offer. No big deal, but it felt like a downgrade for someone who has been there a lot. Service was OK, it was obvious that the table was overcrowded with our dishes but they didn't try to help in any way or offer a larger table. Generally disappointing, I think I'll stick to the location in Hell's Kitchen

    Fabulous service, outstanding food, and in the heart of the theater district! Perfect!! PS: I had the halibut special - a 5-6oz piece, cooked to perfection, over a bed of broccoli rabe - for $35! WOW!
