Bruschetta
Jim R.

The restaurant is divided into 2 parts. A dining room in the front and then tables all along the wall going to the rear. As to art work or decorations along any of the walls, we didn't see any. If added, it would make the place have a warmer feel. Our young servers were very friendly as well as informed and added to the overall fun experience. But on to the food. House provided Bruschetta along with small Ricotta Crepes started our meal. Both were very good. We shared a Burrata Salad with Avocado and Shrimp and it was delicious There were 3 of us and we all enjoyed our entrees, with the Crab and Shrimp Ravioli "winning", although the other 2 people in our group would argue with me - but I'm writing this so ... The Penne with homemade sausage, sautéed mushrooms in a light cream sauce was very good. This can also be said of the Farfalle Asparagus with Shrimp, slivered Asparagus in a pink vodka sauce. Street parking ; BYO. Fairly large menu. A place to try.

Rack of lamb with fresh veggies

We met friends here for dinner on a Thursday evening. Doylestown is the perfect halfway point for both of us, since they live in Chester County, PA and we live in North Jersey. There was plenty of free street parking in the area. Luckily we made reservations, and we're glad we did. The restaurant filled quickly, so reservations are recommended. We were greeted cordially when we arrived and were seated promptly. Our server expertly opened our bottle of wine (BYOB) and then listed the specials for the evening. The four of us each chose a different special, and every one of us raved over our meal. Everything was expertly prepared and the presentation was beautiful. My meal (salmon with gnocci) had a sprig of fresh basil and a cymbidium orchid on top. My husband had rack of lamb with fresh veggies. Our friends had osso bucco and pasta pesto. Delicious! This restaurant is small, which compliments the intimacy of the venue. Fresh white linens and sparkling glasses and flatware topped the tables. There is a large clean gender-neutral restroom at the rear of the establishment. In spite of the distace from our house (hour and a half) we will definitely return to Bocelli's.

appetizer

Terrific restaurant and experience. Started with complimentary bruschetta that was excellent. Enjoyed a ceasar salad. Next, they served a complimentary whipped ricotta wrapped in pasta that was delectable. Entrees were seafood over linguine with their house marinara that was right on point and a bronzino in a tasty, light sauce. Only criticism is with the potatoes served with bronzino--suggestion is substitute pasta. Service was terrific. They will customize your order according to your preference and they care about their customers.

Pollo di Casa
John P.

My wife and I went here to celebrate her birthday on a Tuesday evening. First the bad, we ordered a Caprice Salad. The tomatoes were not good at all as evidenced because they were a pale red instead of a bright red hue. Additionally the mozzarella was the small ball type. It was not a satisfying salad. The entree was great. I had the Chicken Di Casa which is pictured. The chicken's flavor was good and enhanced by the sauce. The sauce was very flavorful. They brought us free crepes stuffed with Romana Cheese. My wife said they were very good. However I did not try them because I am on a low carb diet. The service was great. The server explained the specials. There were quite a few of these and the server had them all memorized. She was attentive but did not hover. She was great. It is a BYOB which I like but cannot review the wine because it is from my collection. The bottom line is this is a fine Italian restaurant but I would not try another salad there. We would go back for the other offerings.

Cannoli and wine!

If you're looking for an awesome place to eat in the Doylestown, PA, look no further than here! With 3 complementary offerings, phenomenal service, and amazing dishes prepared to order, we all left full and feeling like "one of the family". Thank you so much for your incredible service and food.

Salmon special.

First time diner tonight. Fabulous meal (the salmon special). Several "on the house" tastings. Terrific service. I will return!!

Lobster Ravioli

We had a truly wonderful meal at Bocelli's! I had the sausage and mushroom penne and my mother had the lobster ravioli (special). Katie was our server and she was awesome! My goodness she does it all! It was a Monday which I guess is a slower night but Katie Sat people, took orders, delivered food, cleaned tables, dried glasses and set tables - a real one woman show! The food was some of the best Italian I have had by far!

Lobster ravioli special

Bocelli's is fantastic and I would recommend it to anyone in Doylestown. The staff and owner are so friendly and conversational, and the food is always delicious. I've tried almost all specials and items on the menu and have never been disappointed. Plus, you get some freebies like bruschetta, bread, crepes, and limoncello!

The only caveat is that the dining area is small and can get loud. The meal came quick. We ordered a Caprese Salad which was great. The mozzerella tasted good and the tomatoes were red and fresh. The balsamic they used was also top rate. They split the order in 2 and served on separate plates which wa since so we wife and I did not argue about who got more. For the main cause, I had Poppy's Chicken which is always good. I like food a little spicy and this meets that bill. The sausage on top of the chicken is actually a little hot (spicy). Sometimes dishes like this do not have as much topping as I like. in this case it was perfect. Finally for dessert, we had the Barry callout chocolate cake. People in the US do not realize how good of chocolate Callout makes but you can taste it in the cake. The final good word is that this is a BYOB establishment, and we like that too because wine is always so overpriced. The bottom line is that we will continue coming here for special occasions. The food and atmosphere is great.

Their menu is displayed on large monitors which makes ordering a breeze. My father, brother and son have been on a Pizza tour all over the Tri-State area and Lucatelli's was our choice on a Sunday in November. We decided on a traditional pizza and a square grandma. I would describe their standard pizza as a cross between Trenton style tomato pie and traditional pizza you can find all over the Philly Area and burbs. The thin crispy base had the Tomato Pie influence but the abundance of cheese that would slide off is more traditional for eastern PA. The grandma was a square and was thinner they most I've had, crispy and overall was pretty good. I wouldn't put the Grandma in the upper tier but I wouldn't tell anyone not to try it. They also get a +1 for having a very clean and nicely decorated bathroom.

Tonight I passed on going to Steak on State and left disappointed with Lucatelli's once again. The sandwich I had tonight was like a completely different cheesesteak from the one that originally made this place stand out, and I've noticed similar issues with other menu items as well. The inconsistency has become the silent killer here -- inconsistent portion sizes, declining ingredient quality, and a lack of attention to detail. Lucatelli's is still a good restaurant, which is why this is disappointing to see. Winning the award has obviously brought in a lot of new customers wanting to try the cheesesteak, and with that comes higher expectations. My recommendation would simply be to get back to focusing on consistency, quality ingredients, and the small details that made the place stand out in the first place. If they do that, they should have no problem being in the conversation again for next year's award.

Everything was fresh and delicious. The best part though was when the owner came over to ask how everything was and we got to chatting about family. I loved hearing his story and seeing the sentimental pieces he had representing the people he loved on display. What a kind and wonderful man. I'm already looking forward to my next dining experience there.

It was all exciting about trying some very interesting dishes on the pre-fix meal, but unfortunately, it was not the stellar experience that I was hoping for. For starters, our server and "Director of First Impressions", Amber, was cold, aloof, and disconnected. She was just running through her role in a very detached manner. We made no connection with our server and the server is 50% of the experience. She was rushing. No one was there yet to take her time, and we felt that we had no connection with our server whatsoever. She didn't show any passion for the dishes other than sharing what she felt were her favorites. In a restaurant, speak in creative terms about the food, have and show passion for the food you represent. The four of us discussed the menu, and we all aligned and were going to taste around the table. Between the four of us, one tried the Thai pork dish, one the shrimp dish, and two the eggplant Parm dish. In summary, we all felt that they were underwhelming, and they missed their mark on expectation and wow factor. For example, the Thai pork dish that I had was supposed to have a Thai flair to it. If there was any, it was on the lower end of the flavor profile. It was a tiny dollop of some sort of red Thai chilli sauce, but it wasn't enough of a flavor profile to make me say yes, that's Thai-inspired, and frankly, it was lukewarm, yes the meat was tender. My wife and a friend had the eggplant Parm dish and also felt uninspired by their dishes. One was overcooked compared to the other; the two asked for additional sauce to give it some more flavor. Yes, it was a nice evening out, and you get a lot for your money with a multi-course dining experience. One other oddity. During the dessert course, which was a type of bread pudding, we were not offered coffee nor tea. Even it would have been extra, who doesn't offer a hot beverage with dessert, especially in the artic temps we are experiencing this winter. I had nearly an hour drive home, and coffee would have been most appreciated. Oh well. So in summary, I would have expected this to be a five-star review all day long. Unfortunately, it's not even close,e and this is coming from 2 couples opinion.
