Bocci Restaurant consistently delivers an exceptional Italian dining experience with delicious, generously portioned dishes, from comforting pastas to gourmet mains and tiramisu, all served in an elegant, modern yet cozy setting. The atmosphere is praised for warmth and sophistication, with thoughtful touches that make celebrations feel special and easy to plan, whether a birthday, baby shower, baptisms or large family gatherings in private spaces. Attentive, friendly service and seamless valet add to the appeal, and the venue is repeatedly highlighted as a strong choice for both intimate dinners and larger events, thanks to flexible spaces and reliable staff. While some reviews note price and occasional service timing, the overall impression is a welcoming, memorable experience with a top notch Italian menu that guests look forward to returning for.
I had the pleasure of celebrating my friend Duro's 30th birthday at Bocci in LaSalle, & listen… this wasn't a party - this was a full cinematic experience 😭🔥
From the moment you walked in, it was pure Ghanaian excellence. Elegant decor, gift bags at the end (yes, GIFT BAGS like it was the Oscars), raffle giveaways, a sweets table stacked with elite Ghanaian delicacies, photographer, photobooth, fully stocked bar, & a 4-course meal. Honestly I came for dinner & left emotionally richer.
But let's be honest…
The absolute crème de la crème of the night was the host/DJ - DiivaPromo.
This woman didn't just host… she commanded the room. One minute she had people laughing like it was stand-up comedy, the next minute she had aunties whining like it was 2003 Caribana. Men were confused. Women were inspired. Weaves were sweating. It was chaos in the best way possible.
Her energy? Electric.
Her music selection? Surgical.
Her presence? Dangerous.
I've seen DJs play music. I've seen hosts talk.
But I've never seen someone do both while making the entire room fall in love at the same time.
If you need a DJ or host for ANY event - wedding, birthday, corporate, baby shower, divorce party (no judgment) - do yourself a favor & book DiivaPromo immediately. Your guests will thank you, your dance floor will survive a cardio session, & your event will actually be remembered.
10/10 experience. Would attend again.
Also… if the DJ sees this… respectfully… I now understand why the crowd was smiling so much 😅
An incredible & beautiful Italian restaurant located in Lasalle with impeccable service ❤?❤? The decor of the restaurant is so gorgeous & the maître d' along with the rest of the staff were super welcoming, gracious , helpful, & always on their feet in assisting the clients 😇😇 We started with some bread, Rosy sunset (mocktail) , Villa Rocco along with Arancini & my goodness, such amazing taste 😇😇 We then moved onto the main meal where I had the Manicotti Alla Fiorentina while my partner had Rib steak with veggies & each bite was a gourmet's delight ❤?❤? Full compliments to the chef for such delicacies 🙏🙏 For dessert we had the Tiramisu along with Café Espagnole & wow heavenly delight indeed 😇😇 Cannot wait to come back to this 11/10 restaurant with family & friends & enjoy more items on their extensive menu with the best staff ever ❤?❤?

We celebrated our wedding anniversary at Bocci, & the experience was absolutely wonderful. From the warm & attentive staff to the delicious Italian menu, refreshing drinks, & beautiful décor-every detail exceeded our expectations. Also, the event coordinator Kara was so attentive to all our requests & made sure everything went smoothly. Bocci has quickly become our go-to spot whenever we're craving Italian cuisine, & it's now our top choice for all future family celebrations. Highly recommended!
For starters, the venue offered free valet. Not only was this convenient (& quick), it added to the experience! Although i also brought some of my own decorations, the interior was already beautifully decorated, simple & elegant with a private entrance, bathroom & bar. Staff was welcoming & fit in well with our family gathering.
The food.. 10/10. The menu offered variety & quality with options for everyone. We had a buffet style dinner, staff was quick to clear plates & ensure food stayed topped up. If ever we requested anything, staff ensured they got it promptly. A few fan favourites: calamari, the beef & the steak sandwich! Although we had the option to add dessert for a small fee, we were also able to bring our own, which we did. Not only was there no cutting fee, but the staff offered to stay by the cake & cut it as guests requested.
When the night came to an end, we were not rushed out. Not only did the staff help me pack up my things, they also helped carry them out to the car.
Special shoutout to Kara, Iesha & Adam who went above & beyond to ensure our family had an effortlessly fun & memorable night!
10/10 would recommend hosting an event at Bocci's!
Great place for venues of all kinds. 5 rooms available amazing food, & a Sunday buffet brunch.
Modern with traditional rustic trattoria decor.
Great staff on top of their game.
Mon fils voulait manger des pâtes pour sa fête & je lui ai suggéré Bocci. Le restaurant a subi beaucoup de transformations depuis la dernière fois où j'y suis allée. Le décor est sobre & se veut élégant avec beaucoup de noir. Pas de nappe sur les tables, ce que j'ai moins aimé. J'espérais que la nourriture allait être à la hauteur de mes souvenirs & effectivement, la nourriture y est toujours excellente & les prix, raisonnables. Les pâtes, la pizza, les desserts, tout était délicieux. Côté service, on gagnerait à être davantage à l'écoute du client. Nous avons commencé par commander un cocktail, qui est arrivé après les entrées. Même chose avec le verre de vin de deux des cinq convives, qui est arrivé alors que les assiettes principales étaient bien entamées. Pas de pause entre l'entrée & le plat principal. Les assiettes sortent de la cuisine plus vite que les boissons. Nous avions demandé la carte des desserts, qui est arrivé après que le fêté ait obtenu un morceau de gâteau. Il a donc mangé son gâteau tout seul. Trois employés (le serveur & deux autres) lui ont apporté un morceau de gâteau & ont chanté bonne fête du bout des lèvres. J'ai pu commander mon dessert & le serveur est reparti en oubliant ma mère. Quant à l'ambiance, le choix musical un peu boom boum nuit à la conversation. Il y avait plusieurs tablées de 5 & plus, les gens se réunissent le samedi soir en famille & on pourrait offrir une ambiance musicale plus raffinée. Après tout, ce n'est pas un bar. Suggestions côté nourriture : pourquoi ne pas offrir une huile & du balsamique de qualité avec le pain? Ce n'est pas tout le monde qui aime la sauce de poivron. Nous aurions aimé partager les bruschetta en entrée, mais il n'y avait que trois morceaux (on était 5). Pourquoi ne pas penser à indiquer le nombre de pièces dans le menu ou à offrir des portions familiales.
Nourriture excellente, chaleureux comme restaurant & très beau décors. Je donne un 4 étoiles, car le service étais un peu long & un peu difficile à se faire comprendre en français par le serveur. Mais je compte bien y retourner quand même.
La nourriture était excellente.... Au début service un peu long mais ça s'est réglé. Serveur super gentil.
Nous aurions aimé que « le patron » porte un masque lui aussi. Ça clochait dans le décor des serveurs & clients qui entraient & sortaient du resto. Merci ☺️
Stunningly decorated restaurant & more importantly the food is delicious. The octopus, the pasta dishes, the pizza were cooked to perfection. The wait staff were consistent & very helpful!! Great food.... great ambiance!
