What a beautiful experience I had here last night. I was travelling alone for work & stopped here for dinner. The staff could not have been more friendly, especially Julia who served me. The music and atmosphere was lovely and the food was out of this world. I'd definitely recommend it if you like authentic Italian cuisine. Perfect portion sizes and the bread for mopping is the icing on the cake. Oh my god and the Irish Afagatto 🤤 Absolutely made my trip! Thank you ❤️

P. L.

Delicious foods served by very friendly and efficient staff. We took some starters (sea food risotto, ciabatta, arancini) served in generous quantities that were so good we didn't have the time to take a picture! For the mains, we had a Parma ham pizza, tagliatelle with carbonara, salmon steak, and mushroom risotto. All was excellent. The Italian red wine was a very good combination. The creme brûlée was also pretty good.

A. H.

Great evening! Great food! Pleasant waiters! Absolutely nice music 🎶! Will definitely go back

M. R.

A little cosy back street Italian restaurant that offers amazingly fresh authentic meals. The tagliatelle was so rich and full of taste whilst my partner claims that their pizzas are the best in Cork city

R. T.

The food was amazing and authentic!! I got the veggie linguine and it was the best pasta I've ever had! The Staff were so friendly and attentive and always made sure that everything was ok. Will definitely be going back :)

T. Z.

Had chargrilled sea bass and cheese cake, tasted fabulous and friendly staff there. Become one of my favorite restaurants in Cork.

L. V. M. G.

I've tried every single pasta on their menu as this is my number one go to place for lunch and all of them were fantastic! The staff were friendly and polite. The portions are just right. For an authentic Italian meal, the price of the food here is very reasonable and to think it's in Cork City, you'd expect it to be pricey but surprisingly it's not. I would really highly recommend this place.

J. B.

Nice restaurant. My place to go for lunch break, great choices and fast service. authentic Italian restaurant

F. M.

Really great food. Good atmosphere. Reasonable price. Great service.

K. R.

Food was great in general, except steak was a bit stringy and without shrimps which are the part of the meal on menu. Portions are quite big and the whole atmosphere is great. Also, very nice desserts and the staff is very helpful.

R. N.

Nice food and very friendly staff

J. K.

Beautiful food . Perfect portion size . And very pleased with the price also. Been in twice in less than a week. Will definitely be back no doubt about it. Think I've found my new favourite restaurant in the city 😋

A. A. F.

Great food quality, great staff, not the biggest selection but a great place to have lunch, or a romantic dinner!!

L. L. M.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST ITALIAN FOOD IN TOWN!! Had dinner here with friends and got the sea bass, seafood linguine, penne, cheesecake and pudding among us. The staff were excellent! Please give them a try, u won’t regret it! Will be coming back when we visit Cork again in the future! 💛

S. C.

we each asked for chips with our paninis and we got one chips between us. We asked for an ashtray that never arrived, a diet coke that ended up being a flat full fat so either coming from a soda tap or a big bottle instead of cans! They dont have mayonaise, and the panini has very little meat and cheese inside but filled up with the cheaper ingredients. Chips were undercooked. But to be fair ingredients were light and fresh, panini was tasty with fresh bread and produce. the server was lovely, i will come back to try again.

F. P.

A fantastic addition to the cuisine culture of Cork. You will find the restaurant perfect for a romantic casual evening. The atmosphere welcomes family and groups. You feel like you're in Italy on those quiet days. Stop in and enjoy the relaxed causal semi formal atmosphere. They are wheelchair accessible and friendly. The restrooms are wheelchair accessible. There is wheelchair accessible parking nearby. #accessible

Amazing food and brilliant outdoor dinning experience. Service is wonderful too.

D. D.

Had dinner here on Saturday night with our two adult children. The food is delicious. I had the Lamb Shank in a Risotto, The meat just fell off the bone and the Risotto complimented the Lamb perfectly Am not going through what the others had but suffice to say their reaction was similar to mine. The service was top class and our server managed to be professional and friendly at the same time. This restaurant is special so treat yourself you will not regret it.

C. E.

C. A.

Good food, great service, good prices

C. D.

Nice food, but slightly poor service and a little overpriced for what it was Well I can rate the food as good to a bit better than good. Not sure that the drinks were really worth the money as slightly over priced. The place was clean and pleasant inside, but the service was on the slow side. A nice place to eat that it looks from the street. The menu is quite simple, but even so there was plenty to chose from. Our food was nice, but not sure that I would go again.

A. H.

The best food I’ve ever eaten hands down, absolutely class.

T. T.

Food was delicious and service was exceptional!

Stopped by here to make a takeaway order during lunch time. Ordered the Chicken Cacciatore. The entire staff was very friendly and welcoming while I waited for the food to be made. The food was delicious! Chicken was lovely, and the sauce was spot on! Definitely going here again and would highly recommend their Chicken Cacciatore. Yummy! Thanks guys!

D. C.

My Husband and I just finished a beautiful meal here ....The restaurant was spotless and very welcoming ...The menu was varied definitely something for everyone. ...we had sautéed prawnes to start in chile and garlic simply device also a selection of breads and dips ....main course was Shank of Lamb that was so tender when my husband moved his plate it began to fall of the bone ...with saffron rice it was just perfect ...I had the fresh Traditional beef lasagne with very little cheese and fresh salad it was just right for me ...husband had small desert after to be fair we couldn't fit anything else in !! ...all the way through there was a gentle calm atmosphere and the server and chef couldn't have been friendlier. ...The only reason I didn't score full marks is because I like Ice water on the table not warm water ....all in all very affordable very delicious very enjoyable experience

L. M.

Have made visits to Bocelli' on three occasions, each time with different friends etc. Each time we all really enjoyed everything about this restaurant. The service is excellent, efficient and very friendly. The food has on all occasions been delicious. I can highly recommended the hake fish, the Polo Caccitiore, and the salmon. Wine has also been very nice. Great place and great value for money.

Went with husband and child. Lovely food and such a friendly guy behind the counter. Couldn’t do enough for us, had crayons for the little one and made us so relaxed. We will be back for sure. We had the capers salad, pizza and lasagne, pizza was our favourite, so fresh and tasty.

I arrived without booking on the off chance they would have a table. I was given an outside table away from everyone else even though there was a vacant table under cover (this was given to the next couple who walked in) I was given a menu and some water which I thought was okay. It then took around 10 minutes to come take my order, I went for the chilli prawns to start and the chicken tagliatelle for mains. Unfortunately they don't sell GIN which is just a disgrace. The prawns tasted very nice along with a piece of garlic infused flatbread even though I was not given any napkin which was a slight let down. The chicken main dish was fairly bland, I couldn't taste any chilli. I was also only given a spoon for my tagliatelle which again a slight letdown. 3 out 5 is a fair reflection on the food and service given.

M. O.

Good food at a great price

(Translated) What can I say .... Better here than the average Italian restaurant. Sam, the owner managed to create an excellent compromise between food quality and prices (absolutely fair for the quality offered). And he is also nice🌺 Cristina the manager is very smart. As well as being pretty and stylish. Flanked by good and fast waitresses. We recommend the arancini with mushrooms, the garlic bread (made like a pizza), the linguine with meatballs. (Original) Che dire.... Meglio qui del medio ristorante italiano. Sam, il titolare è riuscito a creare un ottimo compromesso tra qualità del cibo e prezzi (assolutamente giusti per la qualità offerta). Ed è anche simpatico🌺 Cristina la manager è molto in gamba. Oltre che carina ed a modo. Affiancata da brave e veloci cameriere. Consigliamo gli arancini ai funghi, il garlic bread (fatto come una pizza) le linguine alle polpette.

P. B.

(Translated) The food and the incredible service but the power went out 28 times and they told us that the oven did not work so there were no pizzas either and they were not to have a detail with us when the bill for the full table was almost 400 euros (Original) La comida y el servicio increíble pero se fue la luz 28 veces y nos decían que el horno no funcionaba así que pizzas tampoco había y no fueron por tener un detalle con nosotros cuando la cuenta de la mesa completa eras casi 400 euros
