La Bocca is open again and the place looks great. The renovation gave the dining room a warm and polished feel. The lighting, the table setup, and the small details around the room make it easy to relax and enjoy the night. The handcrafted plates and the clean layout add a nice touch. The bar area feels lively without being loud.

Alessandro and Anna Maria did an excellent job. The refreshed menu has real Italian flavor and every dish tastes fresh and well prepared. The service is friendly and consistent. You feel welcomed the moment you walk in.

If you want quality Italian food in White Plains, put this restaurant at the top of your list. The atmosphere, the food, and the hospitality make it an easy choice. I am glad they are back and will be returning often.

I have been coming to La Bocca for over 10 years, so the renovation & re-imagining was a bittersweet moment but it’s safe to say they have figured out the perfect combination of blending traditional with the modern. Everything we ate was delicious & the refreshed space made it feel like a whole new place, while still being familiar ❤️ 10/10 recommend!!

La Bocca Vineria is the closest thing to an Italy experience you’ll find around here. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with genuine smiles and real care, you immediately feel at home. Since the renovation, this place is truly on another level. I haven’t been here in ages as I didn’t like the previous owner. But this past saturday it was just wow! The menu is confident, authentic, and beautifully executed, and the redesigned interior completely transformed the atmosphere. When a place is this good, it naturally gets attention. I always judge an Italian restaurant by its carbonara, and theirs is the real deal: no cream, no peas, no bacon, just proper guanciale, perfectly done. That alone says everything. The management is attentive and present, the energy is vibrant, and the space reminds me of Rome with its stone details and warmth. At the same time, it’s refined enough to bring a date and feel like a million dollars. Thank me later!

This restaurant it’s abominable, went here for New Year’s Eve and $505 + 100 tip id realized that I was being overcharged all night long. The bartender was not charging for drinks as a cocktails or well drink, instead she charged every drink as top shelf liquor shot & this is not only outraging but dishonest & lack of respect for your patron thereof. $500 for two people at a mediocre restaurant like this it’s insane. Train your staff better. Additionally it’s insane that I was treated differently for being latina by a Latina bartender themself.

The service was great the waiters very sweet attentive we where there in the afternoon around 3pm…the food was terrible firstly I got the beet salad added shrimp…I got sick from the shrimp..the shrimp was dry and had an Oder the salad looked like a side salad and it was a main entree. The spicy sausage orecchiette was zero spicy bland. The tortellini I got for my son had way way too much cheese can’t believe I’m saying too much cheese but it did. The bread was cold and super dry, the focaccia would’ve been nice warmed.

La Bocca is truly a gem. The food is authentic Italian in the real sense — the kind that doesn’t just taste good, it feels like Italy. It’s the kind of place that keeps me coming back because the flavors are honest, comforting, and clearly made with love and pride.

I first came in on New Year’s Eve, one of the busiest nights of the entire year. The restaurant was packed and buzzing, and even with how incredibly busy it was, I was still very satisfied with my experience — which says a lot. You can’t judge a restaurant based on one visit, especially not on one of the craziest nights of the year, but La Bocca handled it with grace, warmth, and care.

The experience is elevated even more by the people. Giselle, the bartender, is an absolute star — so friendly and welcoming, an amazing mixologist, and always has the best recommendations. She truly makes you feel taken care of.

The owners, Alessandro and Anna, are incredibly warm, inviting, and hands-on. You don’t just feel like a customer here — you feel like a guest in their home.

The whole vibe feels like a little piece of Sicily, away from Sicily. Cozy, charming, and full of heart. La Bocca isn’t just a restaurant — it’s an experience, and one I’ll happily return to again and again.

The staff at La Bocca fit us in on Christmas Eve at the very last minute with no reservation and no wait! The service team was highly attentive and made it a special experience for us. They featured an excellent cocktail menu along with a great fixed price menu, with a good variety of options. I had short ribs which were excellent. We would definitely come back.

Incredible experience. The owner was very welcoming and genuinely values every patrons experience. The food is authentic and delicious, the service is outstanding, and the cocktails are truly next-level. Bartender Mike made us feel at home serving up fantastic cocktails (best espresso martini)… Warm, inviting, and consistently excellent—highly recommend.

I come to White Plains 2 to 3 times a year for work, Short walk from the hotel, my coworker and I always love coming here to see Tony (owner) and eat. Today, We walked in and saw an updated, clean look to the interior. Staff mentioned they just reopened after being closed for remodeling. Tony is no longer running the restaurant and it is noticeable.

First thing was the portion size was significantly smaller and not worth the $30/plate. No wine menu, but we were charged $15 per glass of wine for what tasted like basic bottom shelf wine. Food tasted ok for me, my coworker said she didn’t like hers and the custard (grainy texture instead of smooth) & tiramisu desserts was dry. Waiters were polite and attentive. Not worth the price anymore, and part of the charm that we loved was talking to Tony. Unfortunately, we won’t be coming back.

I stopped into this new restaurant not knowing what to expect, and I left wondering one thing- where did this guy come from?

Mike has crafted a truly curated cocktail list—every drink feels intentional, creative, and unlike anything I’ve had elsewhere. You can tell he puts real thought into flavor combinations, and somehow everything just works. Each cocktail feels like a little discovery.

Beyond the drinks, Mike is exactly the kind of bartender you hope to find: personable without being pushy, professional yet warm, and genuinely passionate about what he’s serving. He asks great questions, makes thoughtful recommendations, and seems to read the room effortlessly.

If you’re curious about trying something new—or just want an impeccable drink made by someone who clearly loves his craft—ask for Mike. He’s the kind of bartender who makes you want to come back just to see what he’s mixing next.
