BOCCA

BOCCA sits on Church Street in Parramatta, on Sydney's famous 'Eat Street' dining strip in the city's west. A hugely popular Italian restaurant, it's a genuine fixture of the strip — combining quality, authentic Italian cooking (with wood-fired pizza and pasta among the highlights) with good drinks and a lively, characterful atmosphere, the kind of crowd-pleasing spot that's drawn an enormous following.

The appeal is that combination of quality Italian food, a good drinks offering and a buzzing, characterful setting in a prime Church Street location, ideal for a relaxed dinner, a meal with friends, a date or a sociable night out. Quality Italian done well in a lively setting is a genuine crowd-pleaser, and on Parramatta's celebrated Eat Street, BOCCA has clearly won over a huge, loyal following.

With a 4.3 rating from more than 4,800 reviews, it's clearly a hugely popular, well-loved spot. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular restaurant fills up over weekends and busy periods, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table at a peak time in Parramatta.
