A family tradition since 1991
Along the historic Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath, Bocca Grande brings together classic Italian recipes, dry-aged USDA Prime and Choice steaks, and a warm welcome.
Our story
Larry and Renee Anderson opened Bocca Grande in January 1991. As a child, Larry was affectionately called “Bocca Grande” — Italian for “Big Mouth” — by his grandmother. Her generous homemade meals inspired the restaurant’s name and the hospitality we share today.
