Just went there for the first time with my family. I won’t share pics because there’s non food left on the plates after we got one bite ?If you’re looking for Italian authentic food this place is for you! I love Italian food but OMG what Silvio, the owner, did with special salad, its addiction! My husband doesn’t eat salads but he was soo impressed , he told me at the end, we need to come more often just to have salad in particular. I ordered Spagetti Carbonara, the best one I’ve ever had in my life! My husband LOVED desert and espresso with ice cream, I finished with cappuccino which btw was absolutely incredible! Everything should get 10,000 stars not 5! Service, food, atmosphere are 10/10! As the hack, you should try it on the weekdays when it’s more quiet and you can get some specials from the owner!
I've been eating Silvio's food since we stumbled across Boccone South when it was in South Orange. A couple of relocations later, and the food is still just as incredible. We love eating here and try to make it our go-to for date nights or special occasions.

We don't usually go out to Italian restaurants as we cook Italian food at home every day, however, we made an exception for our anniversary and tried Boccone South. The food was excellent as was the service. Silvio's warm welcome made us feel like we were long lost relatives. The menu options we chose were amazing and they clearly put an effort to create unique and exquisite specials whose flavor combinations were exceptional. We can't wait to go back with friends and family.

The food is amazing! The service is always exceptional! They are super accommodating since I am vegetarian. The owner has a great personality, provides great conversation, and treats you like family!Vegetarian options: If a place makes the food fresh, then most dishes can be tailored to a vegetarian. There are vegetarian options on the menu also. The owner is very accommodating.
Silvio made us feel like family. The bolagnese was delicious as was the bread pudding. All fresh and quality

One of our favorite BYOB restaurants. Not you typical Italian menu, very different and the specials are amazing. It's a bit pricey but worth
