"What a transformation from the former establishment this Group has made!!\nNo expenses were spared by the Tempe Ownership Group for La Bocca for this great City North destination.\n\nThis refreshing NEW look spared no expense and what a great feel from the street view on into the wine kitchen set up.\n\nMark Pope, a revered Valley Sommelier, and La Bocca's Management Team collaborated on Mark's vision for a world class wine experience (which includes a major education of Staff about the relationship between wine and food)\n\nMany talk this talk, yet few have walked it.\n\nMark is uber passionate with this mantra and when you add in the cuisine items there are marvelous synergies and execution on this theme.\n\nFor those of us living in this NE corridor, La Bocca Urban Kitchen could not have arrived at a better time.\n\nCheck it out and connect with Mark to both feel and hear his passion.\n\nThen dance the dance in the ambience with the scintillating food and wine experience."^^ . .
