Bocelli's

"First, let me tell you about the pizza. It is the very best pizza in the area, and that’s saying a lot, because there are a boatload of pizza places in Medford. It’s a nice thin crust with just the right amount of toppings. I usually get the cheese pizza. But when I’m feeling adventurous, I’ll get the spinach, garlic, and anchovy pizza. Don’t be afraid of the anchovies. I don’t know what they do with it, but they cook it in such a way that there is a perfect hint of anchovy flavor. This evening, along with the pizza, I had the chicken and some fish. Both were excellent. The chicken was nice and moist, and the fish was cooked perfectly. I’ve been to this place on several occasions, and I have always been very, very satisfied with the food, the service, and the atmosphere."

"Homey and comforting! Like the Italian restaurants I grew up going to with my family. This cozy little restaurant will serve you a heaping plate of tasty classic dishes. The server was really nice. We were happy with our meal and will definitely return. It’s a gem among all the pretentious overpriced restaurants around Somerville"

"This was our first time at Bocelli , and we came with a large group of 16 people. The staff put tables together to accommodate our large group.the waitresses were very patient and knowledgeable of the menu. The food was amazing, and we highly recommend this restaurant to all. We will be back. Thank you for a great experience"

"This has been our go-to for Italian food ever since my great aunt who has lived in the area for many years introduced me. We love the food, and the prices are amazing. It is good, real authentic Italian food, and you wont be getting ripped off like you do in North End where everything is up-charged to take advantage of tourists and most of the restaurants are no longer authentically Italian. We also prefer the more comfortable atmosphere at Bocelli’s, where you have a home-town vibe that is not pretentious. The menu has so many options which is also another plus. I can try something new every time. Everything I’ve tried is great. I’ve enjoyed the gnocchi, lobster ravioli, and chicken orvieto and some others. It’s also open a little later than some other restaurants which works well with our crazy schedule. I really hope the new owners preserve these great qualities, otherwise it will no longer be worth the drive down when there are plenty of Italian restaurants closer to where we live that we can choose from. The only thing I wish they offered was delivery!"

"It’s a genuine Italian eatery, I was very well attended, food, cocktail drinks and service was on point."
