Celebrated my birthday here and honestly I don’t think I could have chosen a better place. My family is very cultural and don’t care to have dinners out but Bocca lounge truly made it feel homely, offered drinks to cater to our taste. Very lovely welcoming atmosphere, I would definitely recommend coming here food was great drinks were fantastic but the atmosphere/ambiance TOP TIER.
