If your old don't go to this place. It's packed full of young people and they are loud. There's music that sucks one band I think their name was trash bag had a saxophone player but they didn't play one Kenny G song. Old people should run from this place if you can run. I'd give it ten stars if I could. But 5 is bad enough.

This is hands down the coolest venue for any artist to perform at. The bartender was on fire and gives great attention to his surroundings and is quick with the drinks as well. The sound guy had everything rocking. The staff was beyond friendly and this place needs to be a go to for any local artists or touring to stop by and perform. It is truly unreal.

I had multiple private parties here and played with my friends on the stage. The bar is nice. Enough space for people to dance. Pretty simple place, simple food. Nice sound! Thank you for great events!!

Urbani (Boccis) Cellar is a hidden gem. It's a great place to find fun townie weirdos and unique live music. But this review is specifically about their private event hosting. Matt and Jeff are easy to work with, and they know how to throw a party. We had a wedding anniversary/reunion party at Boccis in Oct 2021, and it was a smashing success. The groovy dive bar transformed into a groovy dive wedding reception. They catered from their own kitchen, making some great multi-course dishes that were totally consumed by our party of ~100 people. No leftovers. They were super accommodating and willing to work with our d*** ideas. We asked for appletinis and moscow mules on tap, and they made it. We wanted nice table cloths. They bought new table cloths. We wanted The Big Lebowski playing on part of their 270degree multi-projector display. They played The Big Lebowski on one side, a slideshow album of throwback party pics on another side, and another slideshow of our pets playing on another wall, all over a stellar space background. We had an epic time. And if Matt threatens that he will get drunk and get you up on stage to play some music and jam with him, beware. He will.

Appears to be still undergoing a remodel. This place has tremendous potential, as a music & food venue. The new owner is on the right track.Looking forward to returning.
