Bill Henson
Another spectacular dining experience with a window table view of North End! We dined on the most delicious Steamed Mussels, Garlic Calamari, classic, Eggplant Mozzarella, Roasted Lambchop (special), and Fettuccine Lobster (special platter with endless clams and mussels). We return again and again, and it just keeps getting better and better! What a special dinner, amazing service, and kind staff. It’s literally like being in Italy for a night! NOTE: Don’t waste time trying to park. Arrive for a 5pm dinner on weekends and use public parking ($) on Commercial Street. You’ll easily park and have just a 5 minute walk to dinner!

Tiny place in the north end that has a great wine selection and even better food. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is perfect for families or with that special someone. The place does get packed, so reservations may be your best option as it does get busy.

We were actually set on a different restaurant that was recommended to us, but walking by this place it was really aesthetic. So we changed our plans on the fly and were pleasantly surprised. The staff was very attentive, the food was fantastic and I hope to return one day.

The food was incredibly disappointing and definitely not homemade. I got a pesto pasta with pine nuts and my pasta arrived saturated with pesto sauce and no pine nuts to be seen. The waiter never checked to see how our food was, upon being flagged down and notified of the missing pine nuts, he brought me some on the side to mix in. There was no taste. The rest of party I was with had the same experience. The calamari was rubbery with a watered down red sauce. It was disgusting, we will not be back.

Definitely the worst food I’ve had in Boston by far. The food was the same exact thing that they served in my college dining halls – literally. Everything is frozen, heated, then served. Just look at the pictures from the other reviews; whoever gave this place 5 stars has clearly never been to a nice restaurant. It’s disgusting… I didn’t even finish my plate, and I was starving.

I had a Fettuccine Alfredo served on the table fresh from the wheel cheese pictured, it had a strong alcohol flavor that I didn’t like but overall the experience and service was good, the appetizers were really good but not many vegetarian options

The food was tasty. The service was amateur. Our server returned to confirm our order, and he messed it up. He did not run through any specials. Had we not heard an adjacent table listen to the specials, we wouldn’t have known there were specials. They sounded delicious.
