Louie Bossi’s Boca has done its best to fill its sprawling indoor and outdoor dining spaces with retro Italian décor and vibe. There’s a regulation bocce ball court, stone gargoyles, vintage lights, an oak fireplace and what the restaurant promises is the world’s only Vespa with two sidecars.
It looks like “1940s Rome had an affair with 1940s Lower East side” – that’s how Big Time founder Todd Herbst describes it in a restaurant statement.
On the menu: wood-fired, Neapolitan-style pizza, house-cured salumi, steaks that have been dry-aged on premises, pasta that’s made onsite with the help of a fancy Italian extruder, homemade breads, pastries, gelati, plus wine, beer, classic cocktails and homemade limoncello.
