Lovely venue, great atmosphere, cosy and vibrant on a cold night!. We were originally seated near the door in quite a draft but on requesting another table we were moved promptly. Food was excellent my ricotta and truffle ravioli had a wonderful balance of flavours and my companions enjoyed their beef ragu pastas and the veg risotto (loaded with walnuts!). Service was friendly and attentive, would definitely return

We had a group of 14, and the staff did a fabulous job! We filled the entire restaurant with the best service, and the food and drinks were fresh, homemade, and delicious! I'd recommend Bocconcino to anyone who enjoys seafood and Italian!
