I loved the fact that there was a gluten free menu! My gluten free penne with vegetables & garlic and oil sauce was delicious! My husband thoroughly enjoyed his meatball entree. My mom really liked the alfredo sauce for her dish and our friends liked their meals too including stuffed mushrooms appetizer. Sharon was a great server!

Closed Mondays- forgot about the Main Street. It’s packed you have to wait in line. J/k those restaurants are good but this one has been so goo to us! One of our top family places to eat! Not sure if they remember us there but anytime we have family fly in or visit we take them there! Every dish is made with love! The espresso and pistachio drink omg!!!! So worth it! Nice cozy place place to take the family or have a romantic night out! Our top choice in the north end. To owner and our nephew hit it off and ever since then we loved it even more. Rip Mrs. B. Summa. We love the food, the culture and the legacy you left for us to love and enjoy. Thank you!

The food, service, atmosphere and prices were great! I literally don’t have any negative things to say about it! haha La Summa is perfect spot for a date night or even dinner out with the family. If we ever make out to Boston again, we’ll definitely be stopping by.

A small family run Italian restaurant In North End. We ordered House Special and Vegetarian penne with olive oil n garlic with veggies. We had a wonderful experience, small place and bit crowded, try to get the reservation. Most of the restaurants need reservations. All the staffs were very friendly. Overall experience was really good

Food was excellent, service was friendly with an attitude. Love being able to joke around with the waitresses where it seems more like friendly banter rather than someone just serving you. Nothing particularly striking about the location or decor but that’s not why you are there. It is a great family style restaurant with sensible pricing.

Incredible food, incredible service, and incredible vibes. This is a family-run restaurant that knows how to make great food, and after becoming our go-to date spot, I can say that the quality is consistent. I cannot recommend the stuffed mushrooms enough, it’s our favorite, and the bruschetta with melted cheese is a close second. We’re vegetarian and have never had trouble picking good entrees here. 10/10 ✨

If wish I could leave a review over 5 stars for this place. The service, food, experience was all amazing. My cousin & I stumbled upon this location a couple Saturdays ago and immediately became obsessed. The food and drinks were to die far but what really made them stand out was the amazing service. I wish I lived in Boston because I would be here every week! 10/10 recommend & will 100% be returning when I’m back in Boston.

Nice spot for dinner. The arancini were really really good, they had a good texture & tasted great. Shrimp with zucchini and broccoli was fresh and light for a pasta dish. I had a chicken & shrimp special with a pistachio cream sauce. Really glad we found this place, understated great Italian food.

Did not have reservations but was able to sit outside. Hostess was great, super friendly. Waitress tried. She brought out glasses for water and proceeded to put ice water in them but they were very hot 2 of them cracked and 1 exploded soaking my wife’s leg and shoes. Luckily son did not get any glass on him. For the food it was good. I felt it was pricey but not out of line with others. The food tasted grest.
