    We’re new to Indianapolis and were craving mussels, so after doing a quick search for Italian restaurants, we decided to try Bocca. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed. The atmosphere was beautiful, the location was convenient, and parking was easy. The hostess was warm, friendly, and very welcoming. It took a little longer than expected for our waitress to come to the table, but a young man stopped by right away to take our drink order, which helped make up for the delay and showed great customer service. The food was incredible, and the portions were generous. We ordered the flatbread and mussels, both of which were delicious. We also took the salmon home and enjoyed it later. We visited for date night, and while it was a little louder than we expected, it wasn’t overwhelming. We were still able to comfortably carry on a conversation and enjoy our evening together. Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely be back! Highly recommend for anyone looking for great Italian food, a beautiful atmosphere, and excellent service. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Seated in the patio, it was a nice cozy environment! Ordered the garlic cheese bread which was top notch and exceptional. The pizzas are deliciously cooked to perfection! Definitely worth the wait that it takes to cook the food fresh from scratch! Definitely would recommend to pizza lovers and those who want to enjoy a cozy but romantic night out!
