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.

    Loved the canister of virgin olive oil with fresh delicious bread for the table. My companion was a vegan so they added delightful tomatoes and the vinaigrette was perfect. Portions were ample and the service was impeccable. Atmosphere was pretty and inviting. I had the rigatoni with chicken and my son had the turkey since it was Thanksgiving. I will come back.

    Crammed everyone in , tables super close. Lasagna was excellent, I ordered the orrechette pasta with sausage. It was ok, lacked flavor. Service was excellent, martinis very expensive. It was an ok experience

    We have eaten there several times. Everything was very good. Most important, although they had originally assigned us a very noisy table despite my request for a quiet one, they allowed us to choose a table in a quiet corner and that made for a huge difference.

    Bocca Di Bacco remains a favorite restaurant for us pre-theater when we are in the Theater District. The food is always delicious, with good, dependable (but not obsequious) service.
