Bocca Osteria

Beautiful restaurant! Awesome staff, great menu. Food was delicious. Our server Joseph was fabulous. Did not disappoint! Definitely a must visit while in Cooperstown!

Oh my gosh! The number of times, we drove by...glad we stopped today! The service was so friendly and obliging. Our server, Joseph, was very helpful and fabulous...a gentleman. Our neighboring customers pitched in to make it an all round sweet experience.

Highly recommend this place. Lasagna was great, fettuccine was great, spaghetti was great and the pizza is delicious! Our waiter, Calvin was awesome too. Calvin’s service was amazing he was kind,responsive, and a great personality.

Wow! We've been here a couple times for lunch and this is our first time here for dinner. I can honestly say, every single thing was AMAZING!!! You have to try it for yourself. It literally has everything you look for in a restaurant. Excellent food, excellent service and great atmosphere! The pics are great but the taste is even better. 5 stars in my book and not a far drive at all! 🔥

We were all wicked hungry after kayaking on Lake Otsego, and we decided to get dinner here after driving by here so many times before. The food was delicious. The pesto meatball panini and the salsiccia panini were delicious. The sandwiches were served with garden salad (mixed greens). The meatball appetizer was also delicious.

Their buffalo chicken soup, however, was only okay. It wasn't anything to write home about. And of course no lunch or dinner would be complete without a cuppa coffee, which was delicious--but I wasn't given a small mixing spoon for my half-half and sugar so I ended up using the butter knife instead.

The atmosphere was cozy. The dining was roomy, and the restaurant offered outdoor seating. The service lagged a bit, but there was only 1 waiter working, I think, so it wasn't a big deal. Our server, overall, was excellent and accommodating.

15/10 would recommend this restaurant, and I would definitely go back to try their pizza when I'm in the area again.

Came here for dinner with a group and found the food to be amazing and the service excellent. We ordered multiple items like chicken riggies, lobster ravioli, carne pizza, margarita pizza, tiramisu and banana and Nutella pizza. Everything was well made and flavorful. Definitely a must go place when visiting Cooperstown.

Highly recommend this restaurant. It is family owned and operated and everyone is incredibly attentive. The food is authentic Italian and delicious. Place is absolutely gorgeous!!!

Delicious Italian food with a great staff, especially our waitress Rachel. She was very nice, extremely personable, informative and professional.

The meal began with a fresh Ceasar Salad that had the right amount of dressing that tasted great.

The Seafood Fra Diavolo was excellent. The seafood was fresh and the sauce had great flavor with the right amount of kick.

The Margherita Pizza was also terrific. The thin crust, wonderfully seasoned sauce and fresh mozzarella made each bite perfect.

This was the third time we have eaten here in the last seven years and each time was a home run! No pun intended.....

Finally, for desert, the Creme Brulee was smooth as silk and full of flavor with a really fantastic crust. A terrific way to end a fantastic dining experience.

If you are in Cooperstown make a point to stop into Bocca Osteria for an excellent dining experience. You won't regret it!

Every single dish was amazing!!! Loved that the greens were crunchy and not soggy as well as flavorful. The mussels in wine, butter, and garlic sauce were plump and delicious. The pizza was out of this world! So authentic and flavorful, I forgot for a minute that I was in Cooperstown, NY and not in Italy! 10 out of 10!

I was passing through Cooperstown, I Googled something up and saw this pop up as a suggestion so I drove five minutes to get there. Really glad I did! The food was so delicious. I had the calamari and the risotto, but the entire menu looked great I wish I tried more things. Staff was very nice and attentive too! If I'm ever in that town again I will definitely be back.

What a nice little restaurant. Everything is cooked to order. The greens (Verdura) were great as well as the meatballs and Caprese salad. My bride and mom each had an eggplant and roasted vegetable tower, one with cheese and one without. Nice selection of beer and wine as well as a bar. The waitress was excellent and very knowledgeable about the menu selections. We will definitely be back.

An impressive family-run Italian restaurant with authentic cuisine. My father and I greatly enjoyed our fresh pastas. The fried calamari was excellent, tender and lightly breaded with a delicious spicy, almost buffalo style red sauce. My carbonara was made as it should be and my father's close to puttanesca style sauce had a good reception as well. This quality food for reasonable prices is rare.

Great food, love there personal pizza from the wood fire oven. Got takeout and pasta portion was small for the price!

Let me tell you, do u want to have a great time great food and great service? Then go don’t ask to much just go. I had a great time at Bocca beautiful. Best callamari ever, then salad very nice and fresh, omg pizzaaa even In Italy doesn’t taste so good.. then for the desert we had traditional pana cotta finished the meal with nice shot of espresso.

Update: Still awesome 4 years later! We enjoyed a few different items this time: shrimp alfredo & mela salad were great.

This was my favorite meal in Cooperstown. Certainly the best quality food we were offered. We enjoyed lasagna, lobster ravioli & spaghetti carbonara. My little one made his own pizza at the table. There was not a wait when we walked up. Service was great & food didn't take too long.

Delicious, true italian, homemade, place is very nice, it made me happy
Would give it more stars if possible

I absolutely love Bocca. The food is consistently delicious and they have a great wine list. Some of my favorite menu are the gnocchi, the Bocca salad, the fichi pizza, and all of the desserts! Their Sunday brunch menu is absolutely delicious as well!

All around great meal with a wonderful server (Erin). The portions were more than gracious, taste was spot on. My chicken parm was well seasoned without the typical abundance of breading. The pasta was tender and still firm with a great sauce. We finished our meal with a Nutella and banana desert pizza drizzled with chocolate sauce. Between the two of us, we left with a full meal of left overs (but no desert, couldn’t have left any of that behind) for lunches. Be sure to ask to sit in Erin’s section, she has great recommendations and a genuine conversation will follow too.

This was such a wonderful restaurant experience! We went after visiting the Baseball Hall of Fame and the service was excellent! The Calamari Fritti was hearty and I had the Lobster Ravioli in mushroom sauce, which was creamy and delicious!

Unbelievable!! The spaghetti carbonara was so good I could cry. I asked for the espresso martini recipe because it was so tasty. And the calamari.....wow. Such great flavor, and not just heavy breading like calamari so many other places. I live in Orlando and have more restaurants at my fingertips than one could get through and NOTHING has compared to Bocca. Incredible flavors, great service, beautiful restaurant. Cannot wait to go back!
